Now, Batgirl's not quite ready to write the obituary of the New York Yankees just yet, but if she were she'd have plenty of background material. Two very long, and extremely interesting dissections of the origins of the Yankees' current woes have appeared in the last couple of days. Both present a desperate and out of touch owner, and a frustrated and worn out organization.
In an article titled , the New York Post dissects the structural and ideological flaws in the organization.
At ESPN.com, Buster Olney publishes an epilogue to his book, The Last Night of the Yankee Dynasty, which traces the continual downfall of the team since the World Series of 2001.
Fascinating reading.
