Planes, Trains and Accidents (RIP Lidle)

Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle died in an airplane accident in New York City on Wednesday afternoon when a plane he was piloting crashed into a 50-story building on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.

As a Red Sox fan I always wish that bad things will happen to the Yankees, but I always think of that as baseball bad luck. No matter how intense the rivalry gets and how much I think the Yankees Suck, death is something…it is terrible.

Initially, the crash sparked fears throughout New York, as the accident occurred just a few miles north of the World Trade Center. The FBI and the Dept. of Homeland Security quickly said there was no evidence it was anything but an accident. Nevertheless, within 10 minutes of the crash, fighter jets were over several cities, including New York, Washington, Detroit, Los Angeles and Seattle, Pentagon officials said.
