1. It this necessary?
I've always said Yankees fans have no manners...

7. I love New York
and New Yorkers. Just not when they're sitting in Yankee Stadium continuing to rub salt in a raw wound. Anyone can be a Yankees fan, it takes heart and a high tolerance for pain to stick with the Sox. Show some respect is all I'm asking the original poster.

10. And if Boston had won last night...
we'd be hearing the same kind of stuff from Sox fans. Both sides do it, so nobody should act like it's only the other team. Or that Yankees fans somehow have less "class" than Red Sox fans.

13. I'd give you the series for
a Kerry win and I'm sure you would do the same. That's class.
Aren't we wonderful?

17. Respect? Jesus! You'd think someone died. Other than Schilling,
Rameriz, et al.

5. Who needs manners when you can have world-series victories?

6. Popular Boston T-Shirt:
"Jeter Sucks, A-Rod Swallows"

Claiming the moral high ground over the Yankees has been Boston's bogus consolation prize for their 86-year losing streak. This is unsupported by the facts on the ground, where Boston fans routinely out-point their Yankee brethren in the Vulgarity Sweepstakes.

It's only normal; they've got a lot more to be pissed about.

I'm happy the Sox managed to put that many runs on the board. I'm proud of them.

18. I'm also happy that they mounted a comeback. There's nothing
better than watching them get so close only to be denied.
