Better take advantage of it... b/c if you flop down the stretch the fans are going away, back to normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a 9 run lead and losing is the epitome of choking ...Agreed the Marlins Rockies game was a choke job, Thankfully we are 3-1 since that game.You sound just like a UCF fan when they talk about well they did in conference play ....... LOLBut we have 2 World Championships, which does to compare with a CUSA trophyIn this conversation, it does .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, that's your argument. How can anyone hate the rays? Especially now that they are bright "rays of sunshine" . The team has done nothing in their 11 yrs. They were basically obsolete. I'd rather be hated than unknown. There are plenty of teams that have more haters than fans (Boston would be one of them now that there fans are cocky bastards instead of loveable losers). Yankees are still one of (if not) the greatest sports franshises in the history of all history. The fact that you hate them tells me you respect (or envy) them.

Too lazy to look up some of the soccer clubs out there who crap all over the yanks as far as fan base and fan enthusiasm. Also i find it hard to take some of those titles seriously for the Yankees because a good chunk of them came from before baseball was desegregated. As far as im concerned relevant baseball history doesn't start until the league allowed in hispanics and blacks, before then it was just a white guy only adult baseball league.

(Spainish & World soccer power)31 La Liga/national titles (which is really what a world series title is) Record 9 champions league titles (a TRUE world championship) and many many more smaller scale titles. Easily the most dominant franchise in the world when it comes to winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
