I had just remarked to a friend (puncher) that I thought it was sort of crass of the Yankees to pose as "America's Team" after 9/11 as a marketing ploy, but as he replied:
"if you take it in the context of how the yankees are compared to the rest of MLB... they are a good metaphor for America! Crude, rich, have won too much, and are convinced that all the glory comes from them."
