A bust in the Bronx: Priciest Yankee Stadium seats unfilled
OK, I'll admit it. I am a Red Sox fan, and nothing would give me greater pleasure than to see the Yankees miss the playoffs after spending a half a billion dollars in the off season. Poor sales of luxury boxes would just be icing on the cake.

Players Should Step Forward
I am no A-Rod fan. (Though I might have been had the Red Sox been successful in acquiring him). But it does not seem to me to be fair to watch A-Rod take the heat for steroid use when others were certainly just as guilty. Other players should step forward, for the good of the game.
