17. Yankees' fans are like the freepers of baseball fans. That t-shirt |
|
and the middle finger explain a lot as to why I dislike Yankee fans so much.

24. I am a fan of any team playing the Yankees. If it happens to be |
|
the Red Sox, then yes, I am a Red Sox fan.
The best series ever was watching the Red Sox come back from being down 3-0 to defeat the New York Yankees in the playoffs.
I live in California and have adopted the Angels as my team. Not much to cheer about this year. I grew up in upstate NY and we got all of the Yankee games on tv...I hated them then, too. The only Yankee I ever really liked was Thurman Munson.

Anyway, I bought it up in New England. Do you know how hard it is to find an anti-Sox shirt in New England? I think I just lucked out because I can wear a little boys 10.

|
And it's not as if it was a shut out. :shrug: I still believe the Tigers are going to lay them out. :hi: Remember, the Sox were down to them 0-2 and took it, with half the pitching staff the Tigers have.

Lay them out is a three game sweep. If the Tigers do win, it'll go five. :P

They'll go on and on about the payroll and arrogant New Yorkers, but, above all, the Yankees are guilty of winning too often. Yankees suck! Yankees suck! It's like they're giving voice to their frustrated inner child.
My favorite is when they equate Yankee fans with freepers; NYC and the surrounding area is always voting Republican don't ya know?

Most of them didn't even have an opinion when Stump Merril was manager and George was in the time-out chair.

You left out the entire NYC congressional delegation (Charlie Rangel, Jerry Nadler; you know them). And Gov. Spitzer will make you forget Mario Cuomo when he takes office next year.
Face it, NY is filled with good libs who love the Yankees. You'll have to come up with another angle for your silly feelings.

Here's the thing, the Tigers have had a damned (That's DAMNED) good season and all we hear is a blip...and then about their last losses. It's disgustingly spun. :grr:

44. They're in the biggest market, AND their owner |
|
(despite all else that is repugnant about the man) actually puts HIS money back into the team instead of into his pocket.
Yes, they have more money. But that's the way baseball works. FACT!!
It's also the TIREDEST excuse ever, especially as they HAVEN'T WON THE SERIES IN YEARS. If having more money (and that's the constant here, no?) were the only factor, would anyone else EVER win? No.

Weren't they involved in Balco, too? How's it Barry Bonds is the only one to take the heat, given that Giambi's "stomach virus" excuse was weaker than he was pre-roids?
