<<
let's see how many will jump on the band wagon this year. >>
I was a Yank fan since I've been to my first game ('89, I was 10 yr. old)
Baaaahahaha, you wanna talk about jumping on a bandwagon? How about the Giants and A's "fans".. (Red Dawn excluded).
Anyway, who's your team? The Braves? Oops, I mean the Buffalo Bills of the MLB, how many rings in how many tries???

I'm not suprised at all that the CWS are down 0-2. Their fans are the typical "fair-weather fan", same with the Giants & A's... I've heard the Chicago news stations have already written them off, saying they're glad they got this far and no matter what the season is a success. Bah! Us Yanks fans expect nothing but excellence. I wonder how many of these Giants & A's "fans" were rooting for their team last season. Seems when the Bay Area teams aren't winning, MOST (not all of course) are finding other things to do instead of cheering for their team. Before I'm called a hypocrit, I was still with the Yanks during their dark years ('89-'93), they're in last place? Who cares, it's the Yanks! By the way, the Cubs are much better, Cubs to win it all in 2874!
Here's some links to clarify my above post:

Baaaaahahahahah the Cubs beat the Sox by over 10,000 a game!! This is for a last place team as compared to the "YEAH WE GOT THE BEST RECORD IN THE AL" Sox.

SF Giants... Hmm, I wonder why attendance was up 60%? Was it because you were winning games? Some loyal fans those are.

A's ... see above, though I have to admit, 21,000 a game ain't nothin to be proud of.
