My appearance on WFAN: Defending the 2 most hated Yankees (currently)

While sitting in traffic as I drove home from a round of golf this past Sunday night, I found myself tuned in to Zach Gelb's show on WFAN. While listening to the usual tune of complaints from callers, I felt compelled (and bored) enough to call in to the show myself ("first time, long time" as they say). Have a listen and check out my expanded take below.



Anthony Volpe
My take here was less about Volpe and more about the concept of booing players at a Stadium. Is it fun to boo players who aren't performing? I guess... but is booing a player on your favorite team contradictory to a fan's (likely) larger concern of their team winning? Very much so. When I debriefed with my dad after the call, he mentioned how one could make the case that booing a player could light a fire under them. I think that's rather foolish, and professional psychologists seem to agree, generally.
