It's my personal reason for hating the yankees. I've moved on but never removed it. You know how everyone has a personal reason for hating the yanks, what be it, Meier is mine. Though damn this is sweet.

28. My Second-Favorite Team Is |
|
the White Sox, having been born in the south side of Chicago. so now you know MY personal reason for hating the fucking Yankees.
I ALSO hate the goddam Orioles for the same reason.
On the N.L. side of the ball, I hate the fuck outta the Mets and the Braves, for frustrating my 'Stros for years.
Now, it is down to two games, whether or not the Cardinals join my personal "Shit List" or not.

32. Did the Orioles do anything specific to the White Sox ever? |
|
I can't think of any, as for me, I am an O's fan, no problem with the Sox.

37. Does ANYONE have a problem with the White Sox? |
|
It's hard to hate a team that gets no pub in its own city and hasn't one a damn thing in nearly a century. I don't even think Cubs fans hate the Sox. Who has ever suffered a broken heart because of them?

Remember 1983?? I will NEVER forget it.
They crushed my childhood in 1983...my sox were gonna go to the WS, and your O's stood in the way!
And then, there is the fact that for some reason, fucked up things always happened to the Sox in the old Memorial Stadium...dunno about Camden Yards.
But, two separate times, home runs been taken away from the Sox in Memorial. Once, it was Ted Kluszewski, in 1960. the umps called time just as the pitch was being thrown.
the second time, it was A.D. Nineteen Eighty Fucking Three...and a sox player hit a home run that a fan caught.
O's manager Joe Altobelli argued that the fan had REACHED for the ball. Film later showed that the ball had SAILED into the fan's hands...he did not reach for it. the fan even later called Jimmy Piersall's radio show to explain his side.
The ruling, however, stood. No home run. and the difference in the game ended up being disco Dan Ford's solo home run in the seventh inning.
What should have been a 2-1 win turned into a galling 1-0 defeat, proof that umpires really CAN be intimidated, thank you, Joe Altobelli, may you rot in HELL!!!

I still can't rationally discuss the 1992 NLCS or the 1994 AFC Championship game. I start swearing and breaking things and then I weep uncontrollably.

19. Sports Are A Release!! |

And I think we ALL need an emotional release this fall.
This election season has been stressful as hell!
And, of course, as a Texan, I have a personal pride stake in these games now.
Texas baseball is, so far, pennantless. I want to see that changed!

the people that have been fighting side-by-side to get bush out of office, are suddenly Republicans, satan-spawn, whatever, just because some Yankee did something naughty and a bunch of fools on tv misbehaved.

Fans of the Yankees (and Cowboys for that matter) don't actually have hearts. They some sort of oily substance in their chests that sustains them.

If I found out that Yankee (or Cowboy) fans kidnap children from small market cities like Kansas City and use their blood to make bread, I frankly wouldn't be surprised.

Well, maybe right about the Cowboys fans. But the Yankees fans sell their organs to Liechtensteiners and press the remains for more heart replacement oil.

34. Yeah, I know. I've been following the board |
|
for years. But the fact is, reading the threads, you can see many that aren't done just "in fun" - it's like they finally have an opportunity to let out some deeply-held and not-admitted-to bile while thinking it will get lost in all the genuine "in fun" posts. Just my opinion, and I'm probably wrong, but I'm stating it to be a pain in the posterior :)

Oh, of course. I'm sure there are lots of Sox fans and Acolytes of the Evil Empire holding hands and singing "Kumbaya" around campfires across the Bronx as we speak!
No, my friend, sports is about vanquishing all that is dark and vile in the universe, such as the Yankees, the Lakers and the Texas Longhorns.
