Yankees Fans Are Quite Restless

It’s a hard knock life being a New York Yankees fan right now, something A.J. Daulerio does a good job of documenting. Adding a flying-kick insult to the injuries of being dominated by Boston and all the other crap they’ve had to deal with — Joba Chamberlain’s surreal, 12-strikeout, 5-plus inning start, for instance — are Yankees fans attempting flying kicks on other Yankees fans. No wonder folks can’t stop talking about the new digs; although, the tune being currently sung is a lot different from the initial responses.
First, it was all about the opulence, with some smattering of ticket price complaints to boot. Fast forward to today, and all of the talk about the new baseball palace is, well, bad.
Is this what life as a fan of Steinbrenner ball has come to? Did the move across the street so uproot the Yankees organization to the point where we can expect an increase of the chaos and anarchy we have going on in the stands? Actually, aside from the undoubtedly drunken Bruce Lee impersonation, the fight was relatively benign.
Unfortunately for the kicker, the kickee quickly turned an intriguing initial attack into a quick, little beatdown. I suppose the New York Bruce Lee should thank those around him for breaking it up so quickly. Kudos for the ballsy approach to subduing your opponents at a Major League Baseball game are in order, however.
