Piss Off Hank

Apparently Hank Steinbrenner thinks Red Sox Nation is a bunch of shit. The Steinbrenner boys have been running their mouths quite a bit since daddy stepped back and handed the franchise over to them. “Red Sox Nation?” Hank says. “What a bunch of [expletive] that is. That was a creation of the Red Sox and ESPN, which is filled with Red Sox fans. Go anywhere in America and you won’t see Red Sox hats and jackets, you’ll see Yankee hats and jackets. This is a Yankee country. We’re going to put the Yankees back on top and restore the universe to order.” The above quote is from page 9 of a New York Times online article from this weekends edition of Play, a New York Times sports magazine. If Mr. Steinbrenner trully believes that theres not jacket and hat wearing Red Sox fans across this great nation, he is extremely out of touch with reality, perhaps he should take a walk around New York City for an hour, in that time he will likely see a dozen Red Sox hats atleast, and thats in his teams city. The Steinbrenners should focus on their franchise instead of constantly attacking the Red Sox and it's fans.
