Most disconcerning Yankee?

pardon my ignorance.. what does "disconcerning" mean? We aren't concerned about him? Or are we concerned that he might "dis" us? or vice verse?

Washington State University has a fascinating book called Common Errors in English Usage.

Disconcerning

This odd word looks like it might be an error for “disconcerting,” but people who use it seem mostly to mean something like “discerning” (perceiving) or “concerning” (in the sense “of concern,” itself widely considered an error).

Whatever. The disconcerting pix in this thread have me rolling on the floor.

All of them. Everyone on the 40 man roster, all the coaches, the manager, everyone in their farm system, their broadcasters, their owner, the fans in the stands who pay that much for a ticket and every dillhole I see wearing the NY logo on their clothing here in MD.
