I love that the NY fans are proving my point.

Bad teams, bad fans.

You can't write this.
Dude. What is your problem? I'm a Yankees fan, and I'm used to people being Yankees haters. But you don't have to apply your hatred to their fans. Do you really want to pick a fight with all the New York fans on this forum?

What's wrong with spending money to acquire free agents to try to win championships? If an owner is willing to do that, and it's within the rules, is he supposed to say, nah, I'd rather be like the Brewers??

As a Braves fan, I am more than pleased to see anyone take their turn as 'Looserville'- even though there's a book coming out next year on Atlanta's turn.

We sat through some terrible teams -especially right before Bobby Cox came back to stay.


The falcons still belong down there.



I'm sure Cleveland doesn't mind NY taking some of the 'guff' for a while either.


Off the subject, I wish there was a way for both the White Sox AND the Asstrolls could loose their current series.

Nobody said they couldn't spend. Packs said they didn't win because of the boatload of money they DID lay out for AROD, Matsuey, Sabbathia, Tex, and AJ.

See NYers like to think they win like everyone else, but they don't because they can't win on their own, they MUST OVERSPEND to buy a title.


There is ZERO jealousy, I'd be jealous if their sports teams were all like the '27 Yankees, yes, then I'd be jealous for sure, but the past 20 years? Be jealous of what METS have been garbage, Knicks garbage, Jets trash, etc etc.

That's that NY arrogance they think we are jealous, ha ha....we are just enjoying how bad they suck!

It seems hard to deny that it played an important role.

...and arn't the Mets (3rd Highest Payroll and not even a .500 team over the past 5 seasons) still paying Bobby Bonilla who retired like 20 years ago.

I mean come on. The stupidity of NY, it never ends. It's hilarious!

And do you want to pick a fight with Rays and Brewers fans?

They are still playing.

Stanton and Cole are playing golf.

Take a punch without the hissy fit.

Some people get off on being dicks. How can you take a guy seriously when he calls himself P Diddy G?
