Damn It

From the Variety review of a new production of Damn Yankees:

In a climate under which the country is being forced to view itself no longer as an invincible winner, the idea of a beaten-down underdog team being redeemed by a miracle has a whimsical appeal. But it's best not to look for contemporary relevance [...] in this effervescent fantasy.

This is one of those cases where the writer of the first sentence should have listened to the writer of the second.
