Thomas Sowell has a bunch of Random Yankees thoughts up. I like the Yankees. They've got a great history. And no, I don't just like them because they're winning, I've been a Yankees fan since back in the 1980s. A couple samples:

During Alex Rodriguez's great season this year, he became the first player in a quarter of a century to have more than 150 runs batted in. But Lou Gehrig had more than 150 RBIs in 7 of his 14 full seasons. That's the record. Even Babe Ruth had only 6.

Gehrig was probably the greatest clutch hitter of all time. Even though more than 20 players hit more home runs during their careers, Gehrig still holds the lifetime record for the most home runs with the bases loaded.

Go read the rest, it's neat.
