  4. If I wasn’t born into this, if I didn’t have 2,000+ games watched in my lifetime and 300+ attended in person, if I were just a new-ish fan that hopped along in 2018ish, it would be the easiest decision of my life to say “fuck you, fuck this, and I’m out.”

  6. I’m Cambodian and he killed a lot of us. They should take this post down, kissinger is not a good person. He’s killed a lot of folks from different countries as well. He’s a war criminal and should’ve been hung

  9. The Yankees are a damn baseball team and he was a century old…even putting his let’s say ‘controversial’ nature aside, this seems totally unnecessary, and obviously creates a lot of ire.

  10. Why would the Yankees think anybody cares that they honor Kissinger? Did they do this for Bob McNamara too? Come the fuck on

  12. Couldn’t Randy levine just tweet this on his own page or something? Anyway now they owe us Yamamoto, Soto, Trout. Acuña, Burnes, Arenado to make us happy again

  14. What a sick joke. Who told them this was a good idea? This has to be sent down right from the owner, there is no other way they would ever do this. He must have known him..

  15. Cant wait for the January 6th terrorists statement stating there are good people on both sides

  18. This is hilariously unnecessary, like cartoonishly “yankees are evil” level stuff right here

  20. I’ve been a Yankee fan for well over 40 years. They are making staying one really difficult with all the bullshit. Not just the team play, but everything, from their obvious contempt of the fans to this kind of garbage. Fuck Henry Kissinger.

  22. Of course the Steinbrenners are Republicans and apologists for one of the most cruel, vicious humans every to occupy a position of power in the US.

    Hal Steinbrenner is the sort of guy GOP politicians salivate over. A wealthy white man who has never worked a day in his life yet thinks he has cracked the secret formula for American success.

  23. The Steinbrenner family has got to be one of the worst ownership groups the Yankees have ever had. Absolutely horrible stewards of this franchise. Might as well sell the club to an oil state if we’re gonna be this soulless and undignified.

  28. This is a brutal self-own. They could have literally said nothing. Nobody would have remarked “isn’t it weird the Yankees didn’t honor Kissinger?”. Not even his family.

  30. So the asshole dies yesterday, the Yankees media team 100% sees the reaction to his death and then they green lit the tweet anyway? They’re just trolling the fan base at this point right?

  34. Really trying to shatter that WR for the any% speedrun of the erosion of an entire fanbase.
