Right.

Right. LOL

Baloney! In this case, you do point out the history of the Yankees, when the team is trashed from a bunch of lowlifes. This isn't the Detroit Psitons, LA Lakers or the Notre Dame either. This is the Yankees. Love'm or hate'm. I love'm and I'll defend them every opportunity I get. Losers always overlook history.

>>>>We're talking about this year.

I congratualed Boston and said they were the better team. If that's not good enough, tough.

Why would I be a Yankee hater? First of all, baseball is not my number one sport. Second, I am too young to remember the Dodgers when they in Brooklyn. Third, as a Lakers and SC fan, I get the Laker haters act all the time, so I can relate to the Yankee fan in that regard. Fourth, just as an example, I clearly rooted for the Yankees against the Diamondbacks a few years ago, for a couple of reasons. I might also ad that as a kid my favorite guys on one of the game shows I used to watch were Mickey Mantle and Joe Pepitone, but I'm not sure you'd believe that, either.

Of course I rooted for the Dodgers in the 70's, and loved the Angels kicking NY's butt two years ago, but I do NOT hate the Yankees. I just can recognize a colossal choke when I see one.
