Yankees crash and burn
The outfield collision between Gary Sheffield and Bubba Crosby in Game 7 tonight was basically the defining moment of the Yankees' 2005 season. The Yanks crashed and burned, losing their division series to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.
This should be a fun offseason in The Bronx. I can't wait to see who becomes the target of George Steinbrenner's wrath. He doesn't shell out $200 million a season just to win division championships. Two of his highest-priced investments, Jason Giambi and Alex Rodriguez, have turned out to be financial drains who haven't helped the Yanks win a World Series.
Although I'm a native New Yorker, I'm not sad to see the Yankees' season end. This team doesn't have anyone classy I can get behind. Randy Johnson's confrontation with a WCBS-TV news crew got his Yankee tenure off to the wrong start. Reports say Giambi is a juicer. Joe Torre is the only thing classy about this organization.
