Professional soccer could be coming to the Bronx. The city is working on a deal that would put a soccer stadium down the street from Yankee Stadium.
Robinson Cano may have been sincere when he took to social media on Thursday to thank Yankees fans for all their loyalty during his nine-year run in the Bronx, but they were in no mood to return the love. No mood, whatsoever.
He drove Yankees fans crazy for years. Now he'll try his luck in Detroit.

"What I'm thinking about asking A-Rod is, 'Are you guilty?' I want to make it as awkward as possible for him ... He's ripping off the Yankees for $28 million a year. I think it's wrong."
The 34-year-old left-hander hit the open market last month when the Mets declined his $25-million option for 2014, which included a $5.5 million buyout.
"If the numbers are right, he had 240 million reasons why he should go to Seattle," Cashman said poolside at the Swan and Dolphin Hotel on Tuesday. "If I was him, I would've done the same thing."

The Yankees are among the team interested in Tanaka, who was a Japan League record 24-0 in the regular season. He then closed out Game 7 as the Eagles won the Japan Series.
He was the right man at the right time for a club that had fallen on hard times before 1996. And he didn't mess it up when it would have been so easy to do just that.
The Yanks are still looking for a second baseman/third baseman type and are trying to bring the lineup "back to the top two or three offenses in the game. We need more work there."
"A lot of the people I've met in New York have always said that true New Yorkers are Mets fans," Granderson said. "So I'm excited to get a chance to see them all out there."
"We got pretty close throughout the years, but I understand it's a business. It's a business on both sides. I would have liked to have played with him longer but you understand it's a business, guys move on."
Several people from other teams I've spoken to think the Yankees need Brett Gardner as insurance for an older and injury-prone outfield.
Funny how the twists and turns take you. Torre turned down a trade from the Mets to the Yankees in 1976 because he thought he'd have a chance to manage the Amazin's.
With that said, today's show began the way yesterday's concluded, with Craig advocating for 'The Boss' to get his due and documenting what he is calling a grave injustice.
With the additions of Carlos Beltran and Jacoby Ellsbury, the Yankees have a surplus of outfielders. So could a trade be in the works?
