If Yanks Win, Thank Kate, Blame Macy's

Omens abound in countdown to Game 5

(NEWSER) - With the Yankees sitting on a 3-1 lead heading into tonight's World Series Game 5, there's already plenty of credit and blame to go around.

New stadium draws small, bitter crowds, opponent home runs

(NEWSER) - With its $1.5 billion price tag, you’d think the new Yankee Stadium would be pretty much perfect, right? But even the most loyal fans are griping as the “Taj Mahal” isn’t turning out to be everything it promised.
