No 16 Oct 27 The Oil Can The Award Winning Newsletter of the Cooperstown Rotary Club Vol. 87, No. 16— October 27, 2009 Gabe Schecter has written about the bad days in… The History of the New York Yankees n celebration of major league baseball’s postseason histrion‐ ics we invited baseball Hall of Fame researcher Gabe Schechter to share the highlights of his latest publication titled “This Bad Day in Yankees’ History — A Calendar of I Calamities.” To be sure, the storied New York Yankees have had more than their share of good days, but everyone has a bad day or two now and then. And so it is with the Bronx Bombers, a circumstance that Gabe has skillfully turned into an entire book that marches through the calendar, day by day, month by month, in‐season and off‐season, summarizing an endless litany of mishaps, misdoings, miscalculations, misstatements, missed opportunities, and mis‐ takes committed by players, managers and owners over the years since the Yankees arrived in New York City. For those baseball fans who harbor no love for the Yankees, Schechter’s calendar compendium is the perfect bedside companion or antidote for annoying relatives who worship baseball’s wealthiest and most successful franchise. “I think it’s a travesty that they are tearing down the old Yan‐ kee Stadium,” Schechter said. “It’s an historic site.” Schechter also pointed to the Yankees’ customary largesse when it comes to lavishing in luxury at their fans’ expense. “They spent 50 percent more than the New York Mets spent on their stadium and the Yankees still are going back to the city for more,” Schechter said. Two owners of the Yankees, Jacob Rupert and George Steinbrenner figure prominently in the Yankees’ calendar of calamities — Jacob Rupert and George Steinbrenner. Schechter describes Steinbrenner, the current Yankee owner, as the “most heinous” of Yankee bosses while Rupert, a Babe Ruth‐Lou Gehrig‐ era predecessor, is Schechter’s nominee for “most despicable.” “George Steinbrenner has been the Yankees’ owner for about 36 years now,” Schechter noted. As a fan once said of George, ‘he only opens his mouth to change feet.’ No owner has ever been more meddle‐ some than George Steinbrenner. He’s the only owner to be suspended twice by the Commissioner of Baseball — the first time for making an illegal campaign contribution to a Richard Nixon presidential campaign and the second time for paying off a lowlife gambler to get incriminating information about the Dave Winfield Foundation, Winfield being one of his star players with who he was feuding.” Schechter, however, gives Steinbrenner credit for paying his star players handsomely. “The Yankees currently have the biggest salaries in baseball.” That much can’t be said for Jacob Rupert, a multi‐millionaire who first made his business fortune in real estate and breweries. Schechter labels Rupert as “most despicable” because, while pretending to be los‐ ing money in the Great Depression, Rupert underpaid Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig, his two stars, and then The Oil Can October 27, 2009 Page two Today’s Program Rotary Photo Album October 27 The Otsego Land Trust Executive Director Peter Hujik Forthcoming Programs November 3 General Election Day Polls Open 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. November 3 Election Day Pancake Feast Cooperstown Veterans Club November 10 WW II Veterans Honor Flight Greg Furlong November 17 Springbrook Update Patricia Kennedy November 24 ur three 2009-2010 inbound exchange students above, left to right, Hubert New Member Profile—Angie Ehrway Szmigiel (Poland), Carola Neri (Italy) and Dan Gille (Mexico).

  • View Key Chapters of Casey's Life
    Proposal by Toni Mollett, [email protected]; (775) 323-6776 “There comes a time in every man’s life, and I’ve had plenty of them.” — Casey Stengel KEY CHAPTERS IN CASEY’S LIFE AT BAT, IN THE FIELD, THE DUGOUT, THE NATION’S HEART 1910-12: Born in 1890 in Kansas City, Missouri, Charles Dillon Stengel, nicknamed “Dutch,” excels in sports. His father is a successful insurance salesman and his son has a happy childhood, playing sandlot baseball and leading Central High School’s baseball team to the state championship. To save money for dental school, Stengel plays minor-league baseball in 1910 and 1911 as a left-handed throwing and batting outfielder, first with the Kansas City Blues of the American Association. At 5-foot-11 and 175 pounds, he is fast if not physically overpowering. A popular baseball poem at the time is “Casey At the Bat,” that, plus the initials of his hometown, eventually garner him a new moniker. Casey finds his courses at Western Dental College in Kansas City problematic with the dearth of left-handed instruments. The Brooklyn Robins (later the Dodgers) show him a different career path, drafting him and sending him to the Montgomery, Alabama, a club in the Southern Association. He develops a reputation for eccentricity. In the outfield one game, he hides in a shallow hole covered by a lid, and suddenly pops out in time to catch a fly ball. A decent batter and talented base stealer, Casey is called up by Brooklyn late in the season. In his first game, he smacks four singles and steals two bases.

Baseball is reminis- cent of fathers and sons holding hands as they enter their first ballpark together, bonding as they crack open peanuts, reach for foul balls, and cheer for their hometown heroes. While the con- cept of "Yankee" baseball particularly epitomizes these ideals, it also conjures images of sex, scandal, Hollywood stars, and tragic downfalls. In the minds of many, Yankee heroes are gods. Ultimately, however, they are just mortal men. And mortal men do not escape the randomness of life's adversities. All of our Yankee heroes have confronted the same personal issues that almost all families face, including death, divorce, custody debates, estate squabbles, domes- tic controversies, and drug addictions. For Yankee players in partic- ular, it seems the list is all too familiar. In dealing with family issues, many of our Yankee heroes have responded poorly.

ABSTRACT In March of 2012, Forbes Magazine ranked the most valuable brands in all of sports. Trailing only Manchester United’s $2.235 billion valuation, the next most valuable franchises are Spain’s Real Madrid of La Liga BBVA, and Major League Baseball’s New York Yankees. As the two of the three most dominant brands in all of sports, Real Madrid and the New York Yankees are frequently mentioned in the same context as one another, but rarely discussed through more extensive market research comparing their brand management strategies. By utilizing Kevin Keller’s acclaimed Customer-Based Brand Equity model, the relative strength of the brands for Real Madrid and the New York Yankees will be assessed based on their ability to successfully integrate six core components within their brand: brand salience, brand performance, brand imagery, brand judgments, brand feelings, and brand resonance.

ARMY BOASTS SEVEN PATRIOT LEAGUE TOURNAMENT TITLES AND SIX NCAA REGIONAL APPEARANCES. WWW.GOARMYSPORTS.COM WEST POINT The U.S. Military Academy is renowned because of its historic and distinguished reputation as a military academy, and as a leading, progressive institution of higher education. Made legendary in books and movies produced over the years, the academy’s “Long Gray Line” of graduates includes some of our nation’s most famous and influential men: Ulysses S. Grant, Robert E. Lee, Thomas “Stone- wall” Jackson, George S. Patton, Omar Bradley, Douglas MacArthur, Dwight Eisenhower and Norman Schwarzkopf. Because of this superb education and leadership experience, West Point graduates historically have been sought for high-level civilian and military leadership positions. Their numbers include two U.S. presidents, several ambassadors, state governors, legislators, judges, cabinet members, educa- tors, astronauts and corporate executives. Today, West Point continues to provide hundreds of young men and women the unique opportunity to develop physically, ethically and intellectually while building a foundation for an exciting, chal- lenging and rewarding career as an Army officer in the service of our nation. Cadets have much more responsibility in running the Academy than students in most other colleges or universities. It adds to the leadership experience. Cadets succeed at West Point because of the support they receive from the staff and faculty. After all, many faculty members are West Point graduates and understand the challenge cadets face on a daily basis.

    The Boston Red Sox Tuesday, April 10, 2018 * The Boston Globe Red Sox-Yankees rivalry renewed and recharged Christopher L. Gasper The rivalry has been revived and so has the debate. Who is better, the Red Sox or the New York Yankees? Who is better positioned to deliver the next World Series winner from the American League East, the Red Sox or the Yankees? The Yankees, with arguably the best farm system in baseball and prospect capital the Sox can only dream of right now, look like a club with a long-term blueprint. With baseball’s highest payroll and a three-year championship window that’s in Year 2, the Red Sox look like the club with an exigent, Steinbrennerian mandate to capitalize on their talent now. Baseball’s War of the Roses resumes Tuesday at Fenway Park when the Red Sox and Yankees meet for the first time in the 2018 season — the opening game of a three-game series and the opening scene in a dramatic passion play that seems destined for an October denouement. The Red Sox and Yankees have made their rivalry fascinating and relevant again. After an offseason arms race (or bats race), escalated by the Yankees trading for Giancarlo Stanton, we finally get to measure the two teams on the field in meaningful baseball games. Baseball’s best and most intense rivalry is once again rife with subtext, subplots, intrigue, and a little animosity, stemming from last season’s smart watch-aided sign-stealing shenanigans by the Red Sox. The strong dislike between the Red Sox and Yankees emanates from the fan bases.
