since the powers that be deleted the last one here is the new one in the baseball thread.

and kobe2odom you can suck it, i will post as much as i see fit. i guarantee you wouldnt be talkin shit if some one else started this thread

this is a classy thread.

I fold

lol

Tight thread.

Where are those pics of the ex?

wut.

How did Indiana's MLB team finish? I missed it.

HAHA the Mariners finished in last place.

Why can't the royals not suck like tampa?

Hahahaha the Red Sox nearly made the World Series again, man they suck!

that's a red sox fan for you, man we almost didnt lose

fyp

How's your team doing though? You a die-hard Rays fan? Or maybe everybody in Indiana loves the Phillies. Good luck in the World Series, bring one home for Indiana!!!! It's been too long!

I thought we were talking about last place teams. NOW YOU'RE CHANGING THE SUBJECT!!!!

so everyone from indiana has to like the same team?? you act as if saying there is no MLB team in Indiana is an insult. and your fyp proved my point, it is only have the almost in red sox nation, where are being a yankee fan is it world series or bust no one is happy for being eliminated din the ALCS

Um, I asked what team you root for. You still haven't said, because said team will be laughed at by me for being less awesome than the Red Sox. What team do you root for? It's a secret?


Pointing out that Yankee fans are retarded assholes doesn't help whatever argument you're trying to make.

my mistake i am a yankee fan, i had a mistype so i apoligize. meant to say where as being a yankee fan it is world series or bust, but i dont proof read maybe i should start

a yankee fan from indiana.. if that's not a front runner, I don't know what is... you couldn't have, say, been a fan of a chicago team, or an ohio team, or michigan team, or St Louis, or some other team even remotely close to your region? No, you had to hop on the biggest band wagon in the country, the biggest budget. I don't like yankee fans from New York area, but I can respect them, they are die hard and baseball knowledgeable. But yankee fans with absolutely no ties to NYC make me sick. The very definition of front runner.

Boston Sux


/thread

being a fan of Indiana in college ball, I am taught to hate the other big 10 schools, so it is a little big hard for me to cheer for some one close. also my dad is a yankee fan so i was raised into it you could say

What in hell do other big ten schools have to do with major league baseball?

Lewl a Yankee fan making a Red Sox suxors thread. Tell Joba not to drink and drive, it could kill him.
I can understand how you're bitter but you guys need to find a way to keep Hank out of the news, that guy is bad for baseball.

you grow a disdain for the state those schools are in.

i couldnt disagree more. baseball is boring to the casual fan, and hank keeps things interesting. as the saying goes no press is bad press

Either that, or it's complete bs you've pulled straight out of your ass to try and excuse your frontrunner fandom.

if i really was a frontrunner wouldnt i try to claim the phillies or rays? the yanks have done absolutely nothing lately

You just created a thread about the Red Sox.....

Jesus christ you're as dumb as a stump.


The yankee's are the most successful franchise of all time, they have more than 3 times as many world series titles as anyone else. Until this season, they have made the playoffs every year since 1993, so unless your idea of "lately" is this season. The yankee's have the biggest pay roll, and are the team most likely to be successful next year and five years from now. I would also guess, unless you are much older than I think, that hte yankee's were in the midist of their world series run when you were becoming a fan of them. I'm not saying you're a transitioning fan, hopping onto who ever's the best team.... because really, you don't need to.. you picked the team that's most likely to be successful any given year.

who suck

Agreed

i am 18 first of all. and the yankees are hated most everywhere you go, and i would hardly call being eliminated in the divisional round every year successful, but then again i am a yankee fan not a red sox fan

you are a spoiled fan then...you know not every team can get to the playoffs every year right

See, stuff like this comes across as so phoney. If you're not from the east coast, how the hell does that rivalry even mean anything to you. that rivalry is about more than teams, it's about cities and fanbases that hate each other.. and when some guy from Indiana churps in, and tries to talk trash about boston, you just sound like an utter and complete gravytraining d-bag.

this. /thread

p.s. Ifold, you made yourself look like the moron that you are. good job.

Maybe....but it doesn't hurt either.

I know what this thread needs....



Ahhh....perfect

so because i am not from the east coast i am not allowed to like the yankees. who cares where i am from that is the dumbest argument i have ever heard. who cares if i am from indiana it shouldn't matter. there are yankee fans and red sox fans across the country who hate each other, there is no reason for acting like oooo hes not from new york he cant like the yankees. the argument just doesnt hold up

That pretty much sums it up. Grow up, kid. And stop looking up the Yankees wins on wikipedia, you were mostly in diapers and on training wheels.

Well.. Ifold may be a douchebag, but snamuh is barely better than him at poker, if at all.

i cant be a fan because i am 18. your arugments get better and better

god damn, you can't even understand basic posts. He's not saying you can't be a yankee fan. he's saying your retarded posts make a little more sense given that you're 18. Me personally, I don't think age is an excuse for sheer stupidity, but others are kinder than me.

Oh...to make it to the playoffs at all....

what a dream.


Try not only being a fan but working for an unsuccessful team.

That sucks.


Just when I'm about to parlay my job to a usually successful football team... they start sucking.

Successful?
I don't think that word means what you think it does.

See below.

Cause there are no Red Sux fans anywhere outside of New England?!?! Whats that? Frontrunning I think. Every DOUCHE that walks around the city with a gay B on his hat should change it to an A... for as*hole. Because the only premissible reasons to where a B hat in NYC are a) you are from NE or b ) your family/parent raised you as a fan and you had no other choice. Everyone else is an A, a frontrunner since 2001 or whatever. People not from NY, like the Yankees because they are an amazing franchise with an inceredible storied history, the Sux have blown since... forever before 2001, no kids are fans of shitty teams. So all the people not in category a or b above are definitely frontrunners and much worse than any non-NY Yankee fan who can at least say they've been a fan for more than 5 years. And now they can go back to sucking balls for the next 100 years.


But you didnt just wake up and decide to like the team that won the WS that year, did ya?

of course there are, and they are front running d-bags too. Because the OP is a front running yankee fan d-bag, doesn't mean that's mutually exclusive with the existence of red sox front running fan d-bags. They just didn't start a douchey thread that I decided to comment on, and this d-bag yankee's "fan" did.


I don't like either of these teams, for the record.. also, your comment


Is erroneous. I became a cub fan in the mid 80's, when they were really, really crappy. There was no local team for me, like the OP ( I live in Nebraska) but Chicago is relatively close, and I got WGN games from my cable company, so I ended up watching like 100 cubs games a year when I was a kid. I imagine WGN is the reason many otherwise neutral midwesterners are cubs fans ( I imagine the same goes for TBS and southern Braves fans). My love of the cubs and chicago sports and Chicago itself eventually impacted my choice of colleges ( Northwestern) as I really loved the city, and wanted to go to school there. I'll tell you what I didn't do. I didn't see what team was in the midst of a Dynastic run, that I have no regional connection to, and decide to hop on the band wagon. Your post is funny, because on one hand, you say no new yorker should be a Boston fan that doesn't have direct connections to NE, and being a New Yorker Red Sox fan makes you a front runner, but on the other hand you say all of america should be Yankee fans because they are "An amazing franchise with a storied history" So, it's okay for a non-New Yorker to be Yankee fan, because the Yankees been good longer, and that somehow doesn't make the non-new yorker yankee fans front runners? GTFO. You're out of your mind. There's a third possibility on why a New Yorker would be a Red Sox fan... Because Yankee fans are such egotistical, insufferable blowhards that people become polarized against the Yankees, and become Red Sox fans out of Yankee and Yankee fan hatred. And I can't say I blame them.

Why do poeple have to be considered front runners for liking a team that is no where close to them? I hate the Mariners, I live in Alaska and 70%+ of the baseball fans up here are Mariner homers.

I am a huge Chicago Cubs fan, I'm 30 so you know when I was 10 years old watching Ryne Sandberg, Mark Grace and Andre Dawson so you know it wasn't because I was routing for a perreniel winner. At the same time I loved the Yankees, not in there prime then, but still held the all time WS championships ect; hard not to like a guy like Don Mattingly.

So really at the beginning of my sports journey I really liked 2 tremendous losers, for me I was hooked by a few well known players as sometimes people are hooked to an unknown player who has 1 really good game or a series of games like Mark Lemke of the Braves in their deep play-off runs and championship(s).

My wife hates the "dorky" Cubs, but as of recently has come to like the Yankees and she doesn't even know if there good, bad or otherwise. She likes the style of their athletic wear, so it is possible not to be a front runner fan and not live close I think... would anyone on this forum not love to have there significant other participate in sports even if it was just because they liked to colors or logo? If you get them hooked be it that way or any other way eventually they will catch some interest in the sport and like it for the right reasons.

And for that matter would it be bad to jump onto the wagon before it gets going? I think DirtyDutch was exploring the possiblity of being a Tampa Bay fan early this year, but they got too good.. maybe he changed his mind? No one gets mad when people become Cubs fans... will that change if they win a World Series? That would be a sad thing because the Cubs have so much tradition as well as being a futile team why not let more people join that journey with us if we have a good year or 2? Look out if Mark Cuban becomes the owner the league will be in trouble and Cubs fans everywhere will be dancing. (or at least drinking!)

People aren't considered front runners for liking a team that's no where close to them. They are considered front runners for liking a team that is really, really good that they have no regional connection to. Do you see the difference?



Also, if you live in alaska, theres really no team even remotely in the region. Even Seattle is a stretch, so I give someone from Alaska free reign to pick any american sports team they want.


I imagine the "WGN" factor had a lot to do with you bing a cubs fan also as it did with me. Harry Caray is honestly probably the biggest reason I'm a cub fan.

Couldn't find a Red Sux thread.

But I have a question for a fan.

Why did the Red Sux deal Nomah is 2004 during their "Historic" run.

Was he a cancer in the locker room?

You didn't look very hard...it's literally the longest thread in the baseball forum .
