Were you one of those "Yankees Suck" people?

[maveric]

Oh yeah! Was and still am!

[KitchenWitch]

1. Thank the gawds the BoSox beat them this year!

[WindRavenX]

2. Blow me

And talk to me when you get 25 more rings. :P
Signed,
die hard Yankee fan

3. actually its 20, Sox won 5, 1901-1919

I think. Hot damn tho, the yanks won their first world series in 1922, I think and that was 20 years after the first modern world series, so this means since the Yanks won their first series, tehy have won, one third of them, godddddddamn.

[maveric]

11. Sox never blew a 3-0 series lead.

No team EVER has done that! Except for the Yankees.

[JohnKleeb]

12. It was a great choke

even greater that they choked at home.

[WindRavenX]

13. I don't care

THE SCORE FOR THE PAST 86 YEARS IS 26-1.
I'll take THAT score, thankyouverymuch.

[maveric]

17. Like bu$h the Yanks played on the upper part of the unlevel field.

Had more money than any other team due to its market. Thats the bottom line,like it or not. The rest of MLB just ate cake.

[WindRavenX]

18. jesus christ

Don't even go there.
You DO realize the Sox are number 2 in payroll?
BOTH teams are a part of the problem- it's not just the Yankees.

[maveric]

19. Maybe now but not since 1918.

Lets not go into denial now.

[WindRavenX]

20. Yeah because the 80's were sooooo fruitfull for the Yankees

Sox have been the first or second highest payroll team in the 90's.

[maveric]

21. All that money and they couldnt do it right? Damn!

[WindRavenX]

22. yup

which is why I have always said MONEY NEVER BUYS RINGS.
You can throw all the money in the world on free agents (which, IMO, ruined the sport) and not win. Which is what the Yankees are right now.
They traded all the young arms- Lilly, Vazquez, Weaver- to get older veterans.
It doesn't work that way.
The Yankees will never return to their form if they keep throwing money on guys like RJ...

[JohnKleeb]

4. of course

damn bastards foiled a good many of my birds' playoff hopes but hey things are looking good, I may be giving up in August instead of January, because Delgado could be ours.

[KitchenWitch]

5. ah yes, baseball fan's hope springs eternal

In my case, it's Go Twins!

[JohnKleeb]

6. you guys will win your division

Santana is great, I love a lefty powerballer, what can I say, thats what I Was.

[KitchenWitch]

8. blow out your left arm did you?

Bummer.

Santana rocks! I just hope our GM can lock him in for another 4 years...trying to anyways!

[JohnKleeb]

9. no, I couldn't hit

and they stopped letting me pitch. I was a closer unlike Johan who starts.

[KitchenWitch]

10. my 14 year old son is a right handed control pitcher

who hits well for average. I would love to see him hit for more power, but he is a pitcher...and I would rather see him pitch well than hit for power!

[JohnKleeb]

14. ahh average is better

You're a twins fan, I assume you know who Ron Carew was, great singles hitter with little power but a fast baserunner and a great hitter. I couldn't hit for shit, and this one coach even benched me for half the game, I am sure you remember in little league that a kid will sit out at least one inning per game, well this asshole made me sit 3 innings, I quit the next spring.

[KitchenWitch]

16. I was lucky enough to actually watch Rod Carew play

at Metropolitan Stadium, back in the day. He was awesome, as was Tony Oliva, Harmon Killebrew and Jim Kaat. Love those old Twins players.

I was lucky enough to win a Tony Oliva autographed baseball a few years ago at a game. Too bad he, and Bert Blyleven are not in the HOF.

7. Inferiority complex

Red Sox fans (like Islander fans) have a complex. It's almost odd.

[WindRavenX]

15. I think it's adorable, actually

They win ONEring over the Yankees in 86 years and suddenly they think they're hot shit.
Sorry, that's not how it works.
