I will tell you why the Yankees are having a bad year
It is the NEW STADIUM!
The Bambino is SPINNING in his grave right now! If you thought his curse against the Red Sox was long and vindictive, look at recent history.
Steinbrenner announces he is going to build a new stadium and what happens? The Red SOx win the series!
The new stadium gets under way and what happens? The Yankees lose and do not even get into the series.
Now the stadium is built and in use and the Yankees are what in 4th place? No way are they getting a pennant this year or any other year in the near future! (mark my words)
To even think of tearing down the "House that Ruth Built" is blasphemy to baseball no matter which team you root for.
Can you tell I am Italian?
Now tearing down Shea was no biggie...
