Dear Yankees,

You're in last place. Boo-freaking-hoo. Is it possible that this season, you are unable to buy your way into the playoffs. Could this be the season that sees you all sitting at home in October, drowning your sorrows in overpriced cocktails on the Upper East Side?

As a continuously suffering Orioles fan (23 years and counting since the last World Series and 10 years since the last playoffs season) I find solace in the fact that you are viewing the world from where we usually are. The bottom of the pile.

So save your tears. We don't want to hear about it. When your busloads of fans come to Camden Yards and start boo-hooing all over the place about the state of things in the Evil Empire I will laugh. Oh yes, I will let out a hearty laugh and reply simply "Taste our pain."

Sincerely,
The AG
