Night Owl Cards

The Minnesota Twins weren't exactly inspired by my previous Yankee-Killer post . In fact, I don't think even one of them read the thing. How are we going to wipe this great pinstriped evil off the face of the earth if you players won't even read the hand-written call to arms that I mail to each and every one of the Yankees' opponents?

Before you know it, you will also see an N.Y. insignia on the back of the vehicle that is committing at least 15 traffic violations. Also, for every true Yankee fan, there s...
