what are you doing tonight?

according to the new york times, criminals wear yankees hats more frequently than other teams' hats:


A curious phenomenon has emerged at the intersection of fashion, sports and crime: dozens of men and women who have robbed, beaten, stabbed and shot at their fellow New Yorkers have done so while wearing Yankees caps or clothing.
Criminologists, sports marketing analysts, consumer psychologists and Yankees fans have developed their own theories, with some attributing the trend to the popularity of the caps among gangsta rappers and others wondering whether criminals are identifying with the team’s aura of money, power and success.

go yankees!!

on a related note, melissa is in new york, and she's taking me to a mets game tonight! i'm going to root against them most likely, as i am a devoted yankees fan. it's because of their aura of money, power, and success. though, i'm excited to visit the new citifield. i've heard its real nice, it even has a shake shack! we're planning on having 3 or 4 dinners, so if anyone has any recommendations, let 'em fly.

after the game, we will buy some yankees gear and rob a chase bank or two.
