8. Sorry
Edited on Wed Oct-20-04 10:33 PM by YankeesFan
It's just emotional, watching your team throw a 3-0 lead down the fucking drain. I've been a Yankees fan my entire life, I went to every regular season game in the Bronx this season, and I have more Yankees memorabilia in my basement than you can possibly imagine.

Hope you understand.

10. I know, but this is the Yankees here
The Yankees are the dynasty of baseball. When they win, it's expected. When they lose it's absolutely heartbreaking.

I will have to live out my Red Sox hate vicariously this year, either through the Astros or the Cardinals.

Nothing would make me happier than seeing the Red Sox lose in the WS. Nothing.

A pennant is great, but it doesn't mean shit if you can't get the World Series win.

16. Hey, I hear you
I have Cubs season tickets, and this year hurt.

But you are the Yankees, you always win and always will. Chin up, you will be fine. Spend a lifetime at Wrigley and you'll wish for days like today.

17. Enjoy losing
I will laugh so hard when Boston loses. It will just about make my year. The Aaron Boone HR made my year in 2003.

That's true.
Can you imagine him, in his house, so frustrated and bitter, typing out these nasty replies, one after another? Pounding down on the keyboard...that is not a happy camper. :)
