Any interest in the facts, my friend?

Yankee fans are not at all interested in the facts. Doesn't suit their needs.

They are not interested in the fact that ...

...Zimmer has publicly apologized for charging Pedro,

...witnesses agree what happened in the bullpen, and the pitchers threw the first punch (and then stomped the grounds-crew guy with their cleats),

...that the Yankee rightfielder jumped the wall to take part in the beating of said grounds crew guy, apparently just for the fun of it.

These facts are not important to the Yankee fans I have had contact with today. The Yankees should change their name to the Angels.

Go Red Sox.

I have no problem with any of the facts in your post. Zim was in the wrong, as was Garcia (in the bullpen incident).

But I did notice how you omitted Man-Ram's role in yesterday's melee. He and his loudmothed compatriot Pedro instigated the whole incident -- the former by charging the mound on a Clemens pitch that wasn't even close to hitting him, and the latter by talking trash to every Yankee hitter after they just rung him up for 4 runs .....and then intentionally beaning Garcia.

Very selective of you.

And speaking of facts, here's one for you: 1918
