Yankees have chance to prove they're more than their reputation

It turned out that Aaron Boone was correct.

It really is all in front of the Yankees.

Thomas Jefferson — not surprisingly — phrased it better in one of his letters to John Adams, writing, “I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.”

But what Boone lacks in eloquence, he has certainly made up for in redundancy. And here is his team on the brink of possibility — they can dream of a better future. It is all in front of them.
