In the movie the Major League, the loveable losers Clevland Indians play the Yankees to start of the season. Of course, they portray the Yankees as little more than big, bad bullies to the Indians. Then in the climax of the movie, the Indians play the Yankees again. This time in a one game playoff to determine which team goes into the playoffs. Not only do the Yankees lose, but they are clearly supposed to be the antagonists, the team that no one should root for! This is an outrage.

But it doesn’t stop there. I started looking for other baseball movies with a similar agenda. That’s when I looked up the story line for The Bad News Bears. Yes, this conspiracy dates back to 1976. In the little league championship, the Bad News Bears played another little league team called the Yankees. This time the Yankees won, but along the way they’re made to look like a team full of jerks with anger management problems and a team willing to do whatever it takes to win, even if it means crossing the line and playing dirty. If you ask me this film is even worse than Major League. This film crosses the line, attempting to turn the youth against the Yankees.

Even Kevin Costner is part of this conspiracy. In the movie For The Love Of The Game, he’s an aging veteran pitcher who has one last important game of the year – against the New York Yankees. He ends up pitching a perfect game. I’ve never seen this movie and had it on my Netflix list until just a few minutes ago.

I wasn’t at all surprised to see this conspiracy in the movie Fever Pitch. This film has the Red Sox playing the Yankees in the playoffs during one of the climatic scenes of the movie. Further proof of Hollywood’s not so hidden agenda and part of their conspiracy to turn women against the Yankees.

It doesn’t stop there. The list goes on!

Sure there’s many movies where the Yankees are the heroes, but now is the time to take a stand against this Hollywood Conspriacy. Ask them to choose other teams to be the antagonists. Why not the Chicago White Sox? I don’t know anyone that likes them, even after leaving there for several years.

In the mean time I think I’m going to go watch *61 or maybe The Pride Of The Yankees.

But it goes on…his jersey number is 211122224541 and was born in Pequannock, Old Jersey. If you wanted to do know who made these editorial changes to his bio, check out who he made his debut for the Boston Red Sox, on May 29, 1977. Gotta love it!

I was watching the Colbert Report during my lunch break (thank god for my DVR and one of the many benefits working from home)

Thre important facts he pointed out about the new Met’s logo:

- The logo looks a lot like the Domoino’s logo, part of the Mets pledge to eliminate themselves from the Playoff’s in thirty days or less.

- It’s shaped like a baseball diamond and a section of the stands – where the world series will be played and where the Met’s will be sitting to watch the game.

- It doesn’t actually say Mets on it. It’s like fans, they really don’t want to be associated with the team.

Of course, he does also mention something missing from the new Yankee’s patch – a Roger Clemmens on steroids attacking the city, which I’ll admit did make me laugh too.

On a side note, sorry about the odd formatting of the embedded video player. You think Comedy Central would know there’s more than one kind of browser.
