Ohh.. you Yankee haters!

When I went to the stadium I never understood why out-of-towners would boo Mantle non-stop.
He and Willy were the greatest of their generation.
Why boo Mickey?

Someone once said that rooting for the Yankees is like rooting for US Steel (then the most powerful company in the world.)
Well, US Steel is toast, but the Yankees are still going like gangbusters.
