  As the comment by the Yankee fan on the original article mentions - one of these things has absolutely nothing to do with the other. It's like comparing apples to.... sheep. You think the Yankees (or any other pro sports team, for that matter) wouldn't get pissed off if their coaches weren't getting money that was promised to them? If anything, the Boston players showed some respect for their coaches by risking their own pay to stand up for them. And I have a feeling that the Red Sox have done one or two touchy-feely community service events, too...every team does so that they don't look like the money-hungry, self-centered organizations they ALL are.
  
  Nice try, though. ;)

    You hit the nail on the head. The players were actually risking their own bonus checks for the sake of their coaches, so to try and construe any of this as a selfish act is extremely tough to do...even for Frank. The Yanks and Sox both deserve a tip of the cap for their actions yesterday afternoon. Kudos to all.

  the yankees and red sox hate each other, but they are the same team, the rest of the mlb and its fans hate both boston aand new york because they both swallow up all of the good players in the league
