What Back Page? Where is the love

By Frank Solares

If the Yankees win a game in the forest and no one sees it, did they really win the game?

The Boss Mr. Steinbrenner loved the back page, and would set the office on fire, or fire a manager just to get on the back page. Naturally with the Yankees winning 9 games in a row and 3 consecutive series they would be the lead on the four letter network, but thanks to OKC vs the Heat they were knocked off. OK then so they would be the second story on SC, but thanks to US Open and Simpson that was not the case.. (Doh). Well then they are the 3rd story of the night, not really.. A man that had not won a race in 143 races on Fathers day would make that impossible.

That would lead us to tonight, they would 100% be the lead story since they have won 10 games in a row and not the the case. R.A Dickey who became the first pitcher in the modern era to throw back to back 1 hitters.

Now this is not a big deal, the world series is won in October and the Yankees are far from it, but when you have the pitching staff on fire it merits a mention.

Just win Baby...
