    It's funny, the yankee 'fans' bash those who hate the yankees, but they are more than willing to jump all over the red sox at any opportunity.

    Hypocrites, much?

    Well then don't call out people for bashing the Yankees.

    If it goes one way, it has to go the other.

    Don't think all Yankees fans are like that. You wouldn't catch me on my worst day "celebrating" like Gemmy & Co. The White Sox did everything right. Congrats to them. It looks like they'll be in the WS with the Cards since the Yankees can't fight their way out of a paper bag right now.
  • I'm going to be interested in seeing this alleged "class" displayed by the Yankee haters should they lose this series.

    I wouldn't call softparade a 'classy' fan, he's as big a loudmouth as spammy or anyone else...he thinks that someone hates the yankees somehow hates all of NY and was happy 9.11 happened.

    He thinks that teams that aren't fortunate enough to be in a huge media market like NY and aren't able to spend hundreds of millions on payroll should be contracted from MLB and somehow they aren't worthy.

    He's a yankee elitist just like those you mentioned.

    I didn't even see those posts...wow, softparade really is delusional.

    For him to imply my dislike of NY sports and east coast bias would mean I enjoyed 9.11 is just stupidly scary.

    I know the gemmintman is a long time probably since birth Yankees fan! So I can understand the thread.
    Anyhow, I'm glad the Sox are gone too. I've had enough of hearing how a DH should be MVP. I'm sick
    of the Sox and The Big Poopi, Rameriez, Schilling, and the rest. Heck I'm so glad Pedro is gone as I could
    only take so much of him shaking his head on Rameriez. I can't believe I went in one year's time being
    happy to see them win to being sick of them too. It must be ESPN....

    I guess I don't care one way or another if the Yanks win so that must mean I like them a tad since I
    despised them too in the past. I'm sure if they win I'll get sick of that team again.

    For me not much to rout for in the baseball playoffs...alot to rout against:

    The Cardinals (Rolen)....The Braves (14 straight).... Houston (The Juicin' Rocket)....The Padres (.500 avg
    pathetic team)...

    FIRE ED WADE PHILLIES.... for goodness sake....!!!!!

    GO EAGLES!!!

  • The Red Sox stunk. image

    You can't rely of Papi and Manny all the time. Tek never came out of his slump. Pitching was horrid, save Papelbon and Wells. Also, the White Sox picked the right time of the year to turn it on (just before they almost squadered the division)!!

    Time to move on to the semi-struggling Patriots! image

    Yeah let's get rid of a team that's won 2 world series...and leave florida with out baseball representation. That makes a lot of sense.

    parade-

    Get a clue, get a grip, I don't hate new yorkers...I despise a majority of yankee fans because they are front-running bandwagon riders whose only loyalty to the yankees comes from the fact the yankees have won more world series than any other team, that the yankees spend more than anyone else, and the eltist arrogance of the yankee fans who think that other teams are somehow second class franchises because they don't have the means to spend $200 million on their team.

    I'll say it again.

    Seek therapy. Immediately. Get this hate and bitterness you obviously have for those who aren't yankee followers out of your system, as it's clouding your thinking to the point where you think that those who don't like NY sports are terrorists and applauded when 9.11 happened.

    Sicko.

    So parade, are you going to man up and admit to calling me a terrorist (not in those exact words, but your quotes, it's easy to get there).

    And your politicial opinions ('left wing liberals, high profile college professors') didn't say NY had it coming, they stated America had it coming.

    More of your NY fanaticism at it's finest.

    I don't mind if people have different opinions...but when they are of the variety you fling out ('contract those teams who can't afford to spend $100 million in payroll'), well, you're going to hear about it.

    I don't mind if people have different opinions...but when they are of the variety you fling out ('contract those teams who can't afford to spend $100 million in payroll'), well, you're going to hear about it. >>



    You are correct Ax, my mistake, they did state AMERICA had it coming. Does not change my opinion that your personality fits that category as NY stands for everything that lead these people to say "America had it coming"

    None the less, congrats to the Sox on a strong season. After all, as the defending WS champs, they did tie (won/loss) for first place in the AL East. Besides the mudslinging, I think what gets overlooked is the fact that the boy wonder GM (Theo) allowed two aces from his WS winning pitching staff go. Maybe that was not the best of moves for the Sox if they hoped to repeat. Regards.

    DirtyHarry, very perceptive. Getting rid of Pedro and Lowe were major blunders.

    Getting rid of 2 of their starters and they still had the same record as the yankees, who spent $80 million more overall and who spent $85 million on pitching alone.

    I'd say the yankees win the battle of 'bad moves'.

    O'Axtell. They lost. Maybe they could have won with Martinez and Lowe. That's the only point. You have a problem.

    DirtyHarry, what did you expect? He has a Gemmy10 magnet inside his (num)skull. LOL

    No, the point being that any yankee fan trying to say the red sox made a bad move in releasing those pitchers is just ironic, that's all. Ironic, too, that the yankees spent how many more millions of dollars, and how many more millions on their PITCHING payroll, only to finish with the same record as the red sox who supposedly made bad moves?

    And who's to say Martinez would even have been available for the post-season? Remember, he hung it up for year early.
