Being a Fan

The Yankees' season hinges on this weekend series with the Red Sox, and I find myself only casually interested in the outcome. Last year I stayed up to watch most of the Red Sox historic comeback, but before that, in 2001 to be exact, I realized I would be a Yankee fan whether they won or lost.

I'm grateful to have seen four championship teams at a time when I could best enjoy them (college). The team doesn't have to dominate to hold my interest. I take what I can get. These crucial last games will end the way they do, regardless whether I watch. So I wish them well and work on projects I can control.
