A Letter to the New York Yankees

Dear the New York Yankees organization,

I think you all are a bunch of over paid, self-centered idiots. It doesn't make you any cooler that you're wearing pin stripes and making tons of more money than the team across the diamond from you. You think that you can carry yourselves different and play the game with a different "swagger" just because you're a "Bronx Bomber". Well I have some news for you all... the team you're playing against is most likely going to play harder, longer, more passionate, and probably going to have a better run in the playoffs than you. Not to mention spend a lot less money and actually have a team, not just a bunch of superstars.

In my opinion you guys are the farthest thing away from a team. Any spectator of the game of baseball can tell, a Yankee fan or not. The way you guys all carry yourself and interact with each other just gives off the impression that none of you care for each other, and sometimes it looks like you guys don't even care about yourselves. Part of being a team is bonding with each other and having each others back. When you guys are on the field, I don't see any of you say a word to each other, try to pick each other up, NOTHING!

Sure you guys can have the most world series titles than any other organization in the MLB and I am sure will have plenty more to come, but before you can be considered a championship team, by me at least, you need to start acting like a team. One of these days you guys should stop thinking about all the money and try to remember the pure joy of the game you guys all grew up having.

Sincerely,
Austin Holt
