Alright, so you wanna know about them… uh… Sportspyder Yankees, huh? I tell ya, I don’t know much about these fancy names and all that internet stuff. But I heard some things, you know, from the telly and the young’uns talkin’.
First off, they’re a baseball team, yeah, like them fellas hittin’ balls with sticks. They call themselves the New York Yankees. Sounds important, I guess. Been around for a long, long time, since like, 1901 or somethin’. Way back when, they were called somethin’ else, Baltimore Orioles, I think. But who cares about that old stuff, right?
Now, these Yankees, they play in a place called… the Bronx. That’s in New York City, a big, big place, full of tall buildings and noisy cars. Never been there myself, too much hustle and bustle for this old lady. I like my quiet farm life, thank you very much. But these Yankees, they seem to like the noise, all that cheering and hollering.
They got these fellas, players, you know, big strong guys, runnin’ around and hittin’ that ball real hard. And they got pitchers, the ones who throw the ball. It’s a whole thing, I tell ya. I don’t understand all the rules, but I know when they hit the ball far, that’s good. And when they catch the ball, that’s good too. And when they run around those bases, that’s… well, that’s how they score, I think.
- They got this one fella, real famous, always hear his name on the radio. I can’t remember it now… starts with a “J” maybe? Anyway, he’s good, real good. Hits the ball a country mile, they say.
- And then there’s the manager, the guy who tells them what to do. He’s like the boss of the team. Gotta be a tough job, keepin’ all them fellas in line.
Now, if you wanna know more, like, real-time stuff, they say you gotta go on the internet. Somethin’ called Sportspyder, they got all the news about the Yankees. Rumors, they call ’em. Like who’s gonna play, who’s hurt, who’s gettin’ traded. It’s all a bunch of hooey to me, but folks seem to like it.
They also got these things called newsletters. You sign up, and they send you emails, I think, with all the Yankees news. Sounds like a lot of work, always readin’ about them Yankees. I got enough to do on the farm, feedin’ the chickens, milkin’ the cow, you know. But if you’re one of them city slickers, I guess you got nothin’ better to do than read about baseball.
So, what’s the big deal about these Yankees anyway? Well, they win a lot, I hear. They got lots of championships, trophies, whatever they call ’em. That’s why folks like ’em, I guess. Everybody loves a winner, ain’t that the truth? Makes ’em feel good, like they’re part of somethin’ special. Me? I’m happy enough with a good crop of tomatoes and a warm cup of tea.
But I tell ya, these Yankees, they bring people together. You see ’em all wearin’ them hats and shirts, with that fancy “NY” on ’em. They cheer, they laugh, they cry, all together. It’s like a big family, I guess, even though they don’t know each other. That’s somethin’ nice about it, I suppose.
And the money, oh Lord, the money these fellas make! Millions and millions of dollars, they say. For hittin’ a ball with a stick! It boggles the mind, it really does. But I guess that’s how it is in the big city. Everything’s bigger, louder, and more expensive. Give me my simple life any day.
Anyway, that’s all I know about them Sportspyder Yankees. Just a bunch of fellas playin’ baseball in the big city. If you wanna know more, go find one of them young’uns with their fancy phones. They know everything, or at least they think they do. Me, I’m gonna go feed the chickens. They don’t care about baseball, just about gettin’ their bellies full. And that’s somethin’ I understand.
