Robinson Canó and the end of a fandom’s era

This past weekend, I met up with a few friends from college who I hadn’t seen for quite some time. We were at the first birthday party of the son of two other college friends of ours, and it was wonderful to reminisce on those days while also catching up with how all of our wayward lives have gone in the near-decade since graduating. This is honestly not an unusual experience at all for folks in their early-thirties like me, but it is interesting whenever you actually go through it.

A shared bond that I had with one of those friends is a love for the Yankees — especially that era of Yankees from our years in college from 2008-12.
