Everybody that knows baseball knows who the New York Yankees are, and even if you don't know baseball you've probably heard of the Yankees.

After the Yankees won the World Series in 2009, they started what seemed like a rebuilding time. With the breakout years from two baby bombers and a couple trades this postseason this could be the long-awaited return of the evil empire. In last year's run at the World Series title, the Yankees ended with wins in the wildcard along with an ALDS victory defeating the runner-up from the world series the year before.

With the year showing what rookie sensation Aaron Judge can do, along with Gary Sanchez still crushing home runs like he usually does, but was limited with an injury. Now with opening day just a couple days away, the future of this year is looking bright. Along with the two baby bombers, the Yankees added some veterans with acquiring Giancarlo Stanton and Neil Walker to put into the batting order.

With veterans like these in the lineup mentoring the baby bombers the sky is the limit. Not only will batting average and on base percentage go up, but also homers will go up and monstrous ones at that. Stanton and Judge led all of baseball last year in home runs with both of them having some of the longest home runs as well. This will bring lots of fans into the Yankee stadium to watch a show and even get a baseball souvenir.

These are only some of the players that affect the lineup.

So come March 29 watch for some bombs being hit in the Yankee Stadium and maybe even watch the Bronx Bombers play.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
