It isn’t just that the two likely MVPs are playing in this World Series, which begins Friday at Dodger Stadium. It isn’t just that two of the most formidable you-need-to-buy-their-jersey dollar/yen machines of modern times are playing in this World Series. But everything he has done has led him to this moment, to this week, to this World Series. It’s to play in a World Series as a Yankee and do whatever he can to leave people — his people — with a World Series memory for a lifetime. Will it be enough to fulfill Dave Roberts’ prediction that there will be more eyeballs on this World Series around the world than ever before?

The preventive approach to domestic terrorism goes back even further than the 1990s and it begins with the basic police work and surveillance of the joint terrorism task forces.
