Spinners trying to rid NE of Yankees

[26 to 6]

Because there is nothing to talk about.

 

And im sure the kids care. You were a kid once, right??

In the words of W.C. Fields: Children? I prefer them par-boiled.

Just for yucks on a stupid thread, but who really cares. The Yanks weren't banned. It was an offer to replace uniforms for free. How many of you have been involved in kids baseball and tried to get sponsors ? Does " Chico's Bail Bonds " ring a bell ( Bad News Bears - the original ) ?

All of NE? What about Connecticut? Isn't that New England? If they want to do this in MA, then go ahead.

 

Personally, I think using actual ML teams is pretty dumb.

It matters because they do not want to become associated with a over paying ball club

Lol, my friend who lives in AZ just got picked by the Yanks, he's like 8 and he hated it because i got him to be a Sox fan.

What kind of example are you setting by making people Sox fans?

 

Not Good

There was an excellent column by that bald guy in Sports Illustrated today. It's somewhere near the early middle. It rang true. I've seen 8 year old little leaguers in yankee uniforms get booed at parades.
