Trust me, I have heard it all. I wear my Yankee's hat all the time, and it's like a beacon for hatred. I don't care though. Sometimes it's better to be hated for things you do well, than loved for the things you don't.

I like the Hornets too, but Chris Paul has gotta stay healthy or they are dead in the water.

I like many of the Yankee players from over the years, but you officially suck. The Yankees as an organization are evil and must be destroyed. LOL

They spend money, that any other team in the MLB could spend, if they wanted too. That makes them evil? Come on man.... When we were beating the Braves every year back in the late nineties, most of that team, came up in our farm club. It's all good though. "New York, New York!"

In seriousness, Paul, I wish they would cap George Steinbrenner's spending. He's driving up the price of baseball for all of us. Baseball needs revenue sharing, and a real salary cap, IMO.

I do like the attention they pay to tradition, and New York must be an exciting place to see MLB.

+1. When you manage your team, your farm system, etc, better than anyone else, well, I'm all about that, but when you purchase the league's top tier because you can, you've diluted the game, and this is what the Yankees do, which is why I'm a Rays fan more than anything else. Honestly, I'm a Braves fan, then Houston, then the Rays, and then anybody but the Yankees after that.

Don't watch man. It will be brutal. Just...I dunno...watch lifetime or something, but do NOT turn on that game.
