Anyone who has a vested interest in the Tampa Bay Rays success knows there\u2019s one team whose presence looms over the franchise, and soon the new owners will seek to undo decades of damage when they build a stadium that shadows over big brother.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Yes, I\u2019m talking about the Yankees.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Nearing 30 years of Rays existence, there is no good reason for the Yankees to still be a 25% market share in the region. Local fans should be local fans! Or at least the next generation should be. The problem, so to speak, is that the Yankees are great neighbors to the place they call home \u2014 Tampa.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Charity events, taxes, good relationship with the Bucs\u2026 it\u2019s enough to make me sick. We got one blissful year of the Rays wiping their marketing off Dale Mabry, and I can\u2019t wait for that to be permanent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">God only knows how the Yankees and Rays could co-exist once the new stadium is built, and I hope they don\u2019t. Send \u2018em to Disney or Miami or Orlando, but Tampa is ours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For me this is an easy question.
