See, the real deal is that yankee fans aren't passionate. Red Sox are the MOST passionate fans in the world. Before we won it all in 2004, we waited 86 years. We stuck with our team and never gave up. A lot of really really good players never got to see a championship(Ted Williams). The rivalry between the Sox and yankees is the best in sports, and the yankees have NO respect. They are selfish losers who need to stop thinking they are still the best. Last I checked, the RED SOX won the world series last between the 2 teams. The YANKEES are in the doghouse. I got one question for yankee fans: can AAA players, mostly those in the  bullpen, win enough games and keep up the pace they are on now? NO!!! You have melky cabrera in left field. You have an OLD bernie williams in right field. You know why the Sox didn't sign damon? because he SUCKS! he CAN'T throw, and he swings with one hand. I am no major leaguer, though I am very good, I could hit 25 homers playing in that sandbox yankee stadium. It is 300 feet from home to the right field stands. Please. Scott Erickson? Please, didn't he like retire and come back last year with the Dodgers? The yankees  are hurt, and  when we play  them again in 60 games,  we will be in FIRST  by 5, maybe 6 or 7  games. The BLUEJAYS will be in 2nd by 2 games!!! The RED SOX will win the worldseries this year. Have you seen the depth of our team? Guess not, cause you yankee  fans  still think you can cut it with a 4A team.  More like the 4H team!!!

Because they won't ever improve their pitching staff and their lineup. derrek lee was a pleasant surprise, but seriously, did anyone else see the pitching staff struggle? stop listenin to all those jinxes about billy the goat! the red sox won it! the white sox won it! but that was cuz of their players, not some curse!

I like the RED SOX because everyone is always Yankees this and Yankees that. The Yankee's fans may have more bragging rights then the RED SOX because all of their world series championships but, the past is the past that is why it is called the past. And as of right now the RED SOX are ahead in the standings against the Yankees. Besides I never liked Derek Jeter or A-Rod. It's all about Big Papi and Manny Ramirez.

The entire Red Sox Nation is glad to see Gabe back. He was a major contributor in 2004, and he will help the Sox win the pennant and then the World Series this year!!\n\nGo Gabe!!

the new york yankees have to be the most popular / famous baseball team in the world followed by the LA Dodgers. With the number of top players and world series appearances and being in the two largest media markets, I can't imagine how any other team would be better known around the world.

I'd love to have a chat with the person who says the Red Sox sold out...  Gee, when did THAT happen?  Last time I checked, the Red Sox weren't trying to buy up other teams players to cripple one team and stack their own.  Well guess what, they spent over 50 million for Johnny Damon and look what they got.  Another Pansy wearing Pinstripe Crybaby just like Jeter and A-Rod.  They deserve one another and last night's victory was sweet on SO many levels.  Every time the Yankees lose, I think God himself Smiles.  They are truly the evilest of empires and with my dying breath I will hiss the words:  Yankees Suck

What are talking about? I've been a White Sox fan my whole life from when they sucked so has all of my family and my friends who are Sox fans. They only people I know who cheer when they are winning are chicagoians who dont watch baseball and crap cubs who decided they want to be part of a WINNING team.

I think everyone except Yankee fans hate the Yankees, while other teams are just competition.  The Yankee's have managed (Steinbrenners fault) to do all they can to ruin the chances of any other team competing simply because they are in a high dollar market.  But as a Red Sox fan I don't particularly hate the people on the team anymore, they aren't the late '70's team that was a bunch of jerks, now they're high priced spoiled brats who cry when they lose.

GO RED SOX!\nI like Manny AND Big Papi AND Curt Schilling AND Loretta AND Varitek AND\nwell, you get the picture!\n\nfreddyg: I was a Damon fan until his farewell speech, where he said he knew we loved him, but we would have to get over it, so I took his advice and got over him real quick.

They have a terrific manager and they are playing great.  While a lot of people lean towards the Red Sox, White Sox and Yankees because of their experience in post season, this Tigers team with their outstanding pitching could surprise and go all the way!  I will root for them.

You see the Soxs fans have problems! We all know that the Yankees are the better team. The Soxs fan just don't want to admit it because before the 2004 World Series the Soxs didn't win a WS title for over 80 years! So the soxs fans are just dreaming. The season had just began. The Yanks will clobber the soxs. Then the soxs fan will go crying home just like they always do. The soxs have won like what 3 or 4 WS titles? The Yanks have won 26 WS titles. They will make that 27 WS titles at the end of this season. So who is the better team now? It's clearly the Yankees. But you soxs fans are going to keep denying it just like always!So you soxs fan can kiss that WS ring good bye!!!!   \nGO YANKEES!!!!!!

Because, most, not ALL of Yankees fans are complete idiots. For example, as a Mets fan and Yankee hater, I can still admit that Jeter is a GREAT shortstop and that Sheffield is a great player as well.  Yankees fans cant do that.  Yankee fans say, ohh yeah, Jaret Wright is better than Pedro Martinez, why? only because he's on the yankees.  Johnny Damon is better than Carlos Beltran they say, not true, they cant admit to anything because Yankees fans are morons.\n\nWell you know what, now the Kings are in QUEENS, get used to being the "Bums from the Bronx".\n\nBy the way, to the guy who posted this question, I commend you, you're one of the few, the proud, intelligent Yankees fans. Kudos.

Im the same way, Im surrounded by "fans" who always laugh at my Loyality to The Tenn Titans and Chi Cubs, but of course their past two fave teams have been the White Sox and Red Sox since they won the series, I hate those sort of fans and they are everywhere

They're morons who think the world revolves around them and their made-for-ESPN rivalry.\n\nWill be sweet again this year when both are sitting home watching the White Sox win the World Series again.
