    The Yankee hate more comes from their arrogant pompous fans then the actual team play

    I don't like the Yankees, but I don't hate them as passionately as some either. I think its pretty much for the same reasons that a lot of Jets fans hate the Giants.

    It's for the same reason why many Jets and Giants fans in the tri-state area dislike (or hate) the other team. It has nothing to do with winning. When the Yankees were the worse team in NY, I didn't like them then either.

    The Yankees were hated in 1991 by Mets fans. Nothing to do with winning. Not with me, at least.

    Yeah, that seems to happen with just about any winning teams' fans. For whatever reason, some people tend to think that their team's success translates into personal success, and they're better than fans of "lesser" teams.

    I have never Met a Met fan that doesn't hate the Ynakees with a passion. I do know Jet fans that don't dislike the Giants and Giant fans that don't hate the Jets. The Met fans hate the Yankees as much as Boston and Yanlee fans hate eachothers teams. And it makes no sense other than jealousy. It has all to do with winning,none of the Met fans will ever admit it. They will say it is because we Yankee fans don't know who Don Mattingly is etc,which is a direct shot at the Ynakees latest winning streat in the late 90's. Pretty much saying that because they won.were all bandwagon fans.

    No,it's because of the winning,but you won't admit that so you'll say it's because of the "arrogance".

    My father is a Braves fan and grew up in Brooklyn. I'm still trying to get him into therapy. And he's upset over this season and I'm like "You've had the playoffs for almost 15 years!"

    So I hated the Braves even before they were good. I root for the Yankees against Boston because I can't root for New England in anything.

    Hahaha I was wondering if it was intentional or not.

    Have we lost you to that dimension that Junc lives in where everyone is just jealous of the Yankees and so badly wants their team to be like them? :lol:

    He was a first baseman on long ago Yankees teams. Played with the club from 1982-1995. Pretty good, but not as good as Kirby Puckett.
