are all Boston fans 10 years old?

nope, they just act like it

especially, the bandwagoners

Yup, same can be said for bandwagon Yankees fans which you are obviously one of. No true Yankees fan would have such thin skin. You're acting like a little girl about all this. It's the fvcking internet, get over it crybaby.

wow, first you made a totally worthless point by saying the world would suck if everyone agreed on the same thing. no sh*t sherlock, I never told him to like the Yankees.

and the fact is that the Red Sox fans have become much more cock-y in the past year. yes, the Yankee fans were that way the 4 years they won, but we're talking about the present. you cant mention the word Yankee without some moron from Boston saying something negative about the Yankees

no, its not about thin skin. and yes, I do realize its the internet. I have been paying my cable service. thanks for reminding me, Mr. Holmes

Damn dude, I don't want a team that does "The Choke" like last year to be America's team.

Naturally, I don't think Americans want to be represented by loser players like Arod "Slappy" Rodriguez, or Giambi the Juicer, or by Sheffroid either.

Well, outside of all the idiocy in this thread, it is quite an accomplishment indeed.... attendence levels are finally coming up to / surpassing pre-strike levels.

Go baseball!

people do flock to the winning team. there is a reason why the Cowboys have many fans, why the Yankees have many fans, why the Lakers and Bulls have many fans. some people watch the sport only to watch those teams play nationally

Wow, good comeback with all the insults. Really proved your point and showed you're the clear-cut winner. :roll:

You're obviously just a bandwagon Yankees fan who likes to pretend he's not, yet really doesn't give a shit about the game of baseball at all other than being a "hardcore" Yankees fan. Some people must not ever get over the whole craving for attention thing.

Of course they sell out more games, that means nothing. 36,000 fans in Yankee stadium makes the place look half empty.

It's not "of course". You don't see Wrigley sold out for that long.

NEW YORK (AP) -- The New York Yankees surpassed the 4 million mark in home attendance Saturday, becoming the third major league franchise to reach the milestone.

The Yankees drew a crowd of 53,911 for a 7-4 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays, boosting their season total to 4,035,560 fans with one home game remaining. The only other teams to draw 4 million were the Blue Jays in 1992 and '93, and the Colorado Rockies in '93 -- their first season.

``It's an incredible achievement, particularly when I remember that when I bought the Yankees, we had trouble drawing 1 million to the stadium. We have the greatest fans in the world,'' owner George Steinbrenner said in a statement. ``I cheer our fans as they cheer us, day in and day out. And I thank everyone in our organization, on and off the field, for helping to reach this amazing milestone.''

On Sunday, New York will almost certainly break Toronto's AL record for attendance. The Blue Jays drew 4,057,947 fans in '93 on the way to their second consecutive World Series championship.

that is a great accomplishment.

good job :thumbsup:

Yeah, and the Cubs suck. At least Boston has been contending the past couple years.

I said "of course" they sell out more games than the Yankees. I don't know what brought the Cubs into this conversation.
