View Full Version : Yankee Haters thread
codetoad 01-30-06, 11:29 AM I don't even watch baseball anymore hardly unless a Braves game is on but I friggin hate the Yankees!! I don't hate anyone on the team more than anyone else.. but I hate the team as a whole. I'm an equal oppurtunity hater. Buncha no good overpaid underachievers ! Their management / owner is lame too. I remember they lost a couple games in a row last season and Steinbrenner was whining on a podium about how there they shouldnt lose since they have the most expensive team in baseball.
HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE!
sha4000 01-30-06, 11:34 AM all this coming from the UNDERACHIEVING braves fan :uh: how many division titles do you guys have in a row with 1 championship to show for it :D i understand that we are the team everyone loves to hate :cool:
codetoad 01-30-06, 11:43 AM LOL Hey I can't say anything good about the Braves as of late - I wouldn't really consider myself a huge fan of them - they play their games on local channels here and I like Chipper Jones but hey only a team like the Stankees can lose the world series when they were sooooo close :woohoo:

Sorry....I'm not a Yankee hater. Steinbrenner is correct. They shouldn't be losing.....but not because of money. They should be winning because they are GOOD, which they ARE.....and they have one heck of a great owner. If people dislike Steinbrenner because he treats his team well and spends money on them, then that is not HIS fault. :egads:
codetoad 01-30-06, 11:55 AM Yes but he was complaining about them spending all that money and then still losing - no one was questioning their playing ability. There's just nothing appealing to me about being the most 'expensive and talented' team in Baseball. It's like their expected to win every game or every world series just because they dumped a bunch of money into their athletes. That's so lame, and it's why I always favor the underdog..or the teams that are thrown together with mediocre players that play well together.
SCRUFFDOGG 01-30-06, 03:13 PM I'd love to have an owner like George, all he wants to do is win. I went to NY for the first time last May and one thing that stood out to me was the Yankee support. Yankee stuff was everywhere, you'd never know that they also have the Mets, Giants, Jets, Knicks, Islanders, Rangers, and whoever else i'm missing but damn you can't miss the Yankees.
I do hate them though, Yankees Suck
A Braves fan hating on the Yankees??? Come on now.
I can accept it from a Sawx fan. It's the whole rivalry thing. But, I mean you're NL. Nothing to do with the Yanks whatsoever!!!
So, this means you hate the Yanks ONLY because they in fact ARE good (regardless of last years performance). As sha said, what....13 division titles in a row and only 1 championship??? WTF??? If that isn't the picture of inability, I don't know what is?
I can respect anyone's decision to not like a team. But when the basis for your hatred is "management is lame" & "Buncha no good overpaid underachievers". I gotta say, read up on your sports young buck. Get some data to back up your rant. Unbased rants are just like turds, they disappear when you flush!
**insert toilet flush noise here**

codetoad 01-31-06, 10:14 AM He hates the Yankees cuz we Busted him up in 2 different WS's including a 4 game sweep in 1999....Its all good......... :agreed:
You say 'we' like you're on the team or something... jeeze with all that money the Yanks throw around, it makes me wonder if they pay you guys to be fans too :D
You say 'we' like you're on the team or something... jeeze will all that money they throw around, it makes me wonder if they pay you guys to be fans too :D
As a matter of fact they do! One of the perks of living in the tri-state area. More money for mods!!!
There, I said it. So what. Wanna fight about it?
**Family Guy Reference** :D
codetoad 01-31-06, 10:20 AM ^^^^ HAHAHA... in that case im moving.
sha4000 01-31-06, 10:30 AM you have to renounce all other affiliations b4 you can be accepted :D
bluelex 01-31-06, 10:55 AM You say 'we' like you're on the team or something... jeeze with all that money the Yanks throw around, it makes me wonder if they pay you guys to be fans too :D
HAHA, that was funny..LOL I wish they paid me to be a fan but I've been a fan since the early 80's when I remember watching Donnie basball,Randolph,Winfield, Pags and Raghetti. I went through lots of years of losing so when we started to win in the late 90's I had to be overyjoyed by our success.
You can Hate all you want but that won't change the 26 World Championships. where no team in ALL of SPORTS can say they have more...
When it comes to the Big George, Yes he gets to involved and Yes he spends way too much on the team and we don't win every year but I rather have an owner who will front the bill every summer to get the best players he can than cheap owners like the Braves owners who let players go to save money. I know spening doesn't always mean winning but you can say that about a lot of teams like the Mets, Redsox, Angles to name a few..
1SICKLEX 02-05-06, 11:04 AM No Braves fan could ever talk about the Yankees.The Braves are the best team, that knows how the be the worst, at the worst possible time.
They were my team when they had Gant/Justice and won the rings and had some heart and character. Since then, they are like robots.
Bobby Cox is the worst manager in history, to have such a good team
Lexusfreak 02-05-06, 03:47 PM Yanks better watch out for the Blue Jays this year! & yes I am a huge Yankee fan.....but Toronto is first. :p :D
