Crossing over the Atlantic sports divide

[Kirkland Laing]

When the Yankees were doing their dynasty thing the firm I worked for at the time had a couple of boxes at Yankee Stadium. I got dragged along one night and El Duque was pitching.



That leg kick.

That leg kick was probably the start of it. I used to go quite regularly after that. I generally used to buy tickets as sitting in a box with a bunch of fuckers talking money is seriously offputting. Sitting in the crowd and talking to actual normal people was a great thing, one of the things I miss most about New York.

New York is not missing you

New York's female population is still heartbroken.

Is that French for male? As in 'For male' spoken with a husky effeminate French twang.

There was mass hysteria in Manhattan's gay population when it became public knowledge on the gayvine that I was leaving. I didn't mention it because I thought it would go without saying.
