New Yankee Stadium

So as I wrote about in the first part of my Yankee Stadium blog about the old Stadium, which you can find here, I’m back now to tell ya all about New Yankee Stadium.

New Yankee Stadium After 85 years in the last building, it was decided that it was time to bid the…

A New Endeavor

I know things have been a little quiet here at MarcsTwoCents the last few months, I'm here now to explain why...

So I’m sure if you follow this site, you may have noticed a lack of new content over the last month or so, and there’s a good reason for that. About a month ago, I decided to try to branch out and see what else might be out there from a writing standpoint. So I headed over to FanSided.com to see how the writers for that site got to do what they do & ostensibly get paid to do so. After looking…
