This is how jaded we have become: if A-Rod returns and does really well, we are going to assume he is still cheating. If he does poorly, we are going to assume that this is the real (and clean) A-Rod. Sorry.

So it’s no surprise that we have Joba going crazy as if it’s Game 7, instead of another painful loss. And we have the guys in the booth celebrating strikeouts instead of victories. Generation YES has officially poisoned the Bombers, elevating individual achievement over team effort. That’s what losing, small-market teams like the Washington Nationals do. They promote personalities over the bottom line because it’s the only way to sell their product. YES, it really has come to this.

• Memo to Girardi: A-Rod wrote the book on A-Rod. Not Selena Roberts. Yankee Universe takes glee in its poor opening sales. Okay. But the focus (and rage) should be on the fact that (unnamed) Yankee players actually contributed to this book. Does this team really think so little of its biggest star?

• Why is it that every year it comes to this? Girardi strategically gets himself thrown out of a game and supposedly lights a fire under his team. Why isn’t the fire lit on Opening Day?

• A rain delay helps the new stadium continue to alienate its fan base. Posada is injured on a questionable playing field. Why couldn’t they put a roof on the greatest stadium in baseball?
