	Born in Buffalo, I attended Buffalo Bison games weakly - so naturally I became familiar with the Indians. However, my father has been a Mets fan for a long time and I chose at a young age to get under his skin and route for the Yanks. What started as a childhood game quickly became a passion. I move to NYC after high school because taking one or two road trips to the Bronx per year wasn't cutting it for me. GO YANKS!!!

	My father was a Yankee fan. I am a Yankee fan. My son's first complete sentence was "Theeeeeee Yankees win!" So yeah, I guess we were all born into it.

	Since my grandfather came to NY and followed the Babe, my family is all Yankee. My father became a Yankee fan because of my grandfather and I became a Yankee fan because of my father. I was born into it I guess. My father said he taught me to say "Yankees" at 3. Have no idea if its true. All I know is, since i watched my first game of baseball, at 5, I have been a Yankee fan. 18 years later, I am here.

	Being born in Indiana, my options for having a favorite team were open. I was around 13 and started collecting cards. My first pack I opened an 88 Topps wax pack and Don Mattingly was the first card I saw. After turning over to read his stats, I noticed he was from Evansville. I decided that he was to be my favorite player and the Yanks were to be my team. Been a fan ever since.
