Any Yankee Haters......

... REALLY happy to see them in last place in the AL east?


Watching them lose is almost as much fun as muching the Cowgirls lose.

As a Yankee fan, I would say this is about as much fun as watching the Skins in 2000, who had the highest payroll, but they were players from the 1992 All-Madden team. Once we lost that 2001 WS to AZ, George got a lot more involved and made some very rash decisions that are starting to cost the Yankees. This team got old fast.

There are some positives though. The bandwagon fans will leave and this really puts a dent in the "Yankees buy titles" claims.

Re: Any Yankee Haters......

Me too.... i dont know why I just really hate teams from NYC. Even in sports I don't really like. Man, on the Yankee boards they are yelling at each other and their team. Its funny to see people not used to losing doing it so often.

There are still yankee fans who think that the O's aren't good. I'm like thinking what don't they like about the O's the great Offense, defense, or pretty good pitching?

Re: Any Yankee Haters......

Yes, I have a problem with teams from NY for some reason too. Baseball needs a salary cap. Yankees have the biggest bunch of bandwagon jumping fans EVER. Unless people are from NY, it seems they only like them when they are winning.

1 Hit batsman

Of course they are yelling at each other and their team, much like we've been doing here with the Skins. Unless they happen to be Skins fans too over there, they have no idea what its like to have the biggest payroll and lose badly. I'm used to it each fall.

The O's are good and much improved from last year. A WS team? No, but they have a great shot at the AL East.

Re: Any Yankee Haters......

I'm an O's fan by nature, Nats fan by association, and a Yankee hater because of how I was raised

Neither of my parents are big into sports, but they'll watch the O's and the Redskins...and root hard. I was raised on 2 concepts: Love the O's and Skins, Hate the Yankees and Cowboys.

Re: Any Yankee Haters......

This hurts. I'm a Yankee fan. But now I have my NL team with the Nats. They're playing well, so I'm happy. The Yankees will turn it around sooner or later. You can't sit here and think that a team with that much talent will play this bad for the rest of the year. But then again this is a "yankee haters" thread, so you guys are probably loving life right now. I hope they can turn it around.

For now Go Nats!

BTW....I hate the Boston Red Sox. Matter of fact, I hate everything about Boston.

Feel exactly the same way.

The biggest reason why I hate the Yankees is because of that ALCS when Jefferey Maier leaned over the fence to grab a pop fly and the umps ruled it a home run. That was sickening.

I don't really like to talk smack until after the season is over; mainly for fear that they might turn things around.

Yeah, I did the same thing a year or two ago and then they went on a run of like 35/40 games they won.
