George is a Yankees fan and has been since he was a little kid. Yes, he did grow up in New England but for some reason chose to like all of the most hated rivals of the local teams. (So in addition to the Yankees, he likes the LA Lakers and the Pittsburgh Steelers - no local teams here in the Snow household.)
By association, and as a survival mechanism, I too am a Yankees fan. My interest and knowledge level wanes from year to year and some years I can easily list off the entire line up and other years I am surprised by the names on the roster.
Jacob is also a dedicated fan. He has been to Yankee stadium three times now and is not afraid to wear his Yankee gear to school and out and about here in NH. He is starting to get into the stats surrounding the game and keeping track of players, trades, league records, etc.
This is the first year that Benjamin has shown any interest. He has now watched a couple of games with George and appears to be excited about the game.
Let the games begin!
