Hey Boston People, New to your site. I'm not a troll and I just love the game of baseball. Being born and raised in NY (like if you were born and raised in Boston), I do LOVE the Yanks!! That being said, I'm not a trouble maker nor am I a hater with only negative and derogatory comments to say about the Sox or any other team for that matter. I call what I see, and I don't pull any punches! If the Yankees were to lose 10 in a row, I'm not making excuses, it is what it is. Glad to be on this site. I love to talk baseball and I rarely get a chance. I understand I'm entering enemy territory; I also belong to the Yanks forum. However the Yanks forum is a bunch of idiot guidos who no nothing about the actual game of baseball; it's intricacies, nuances, and the real deal about what baseball is really about. (call me a trader, I don't care, this forum and Red Sox fans just know more about the game than Yankee fans, not all, but most Yankee fans are like, "who"? They cannot even tell you 5 players in the lineup. "sigh". Most cannot even name 3 starting pitchers. Anyway, I will give my opinions on various games and baseball news from a Yankee fan perspective, but I will neither hate on the Red Sox, nor any other team; I won't get out of line and talk sh*t when there is no reason for it. Just not me. I was an early champion of the Red Sox competing for a Wild Card or division, and like I said, the best teams make it and I call it how I see it. So relax Boston fans, we have plenty of Sox fans on the Yankee forums, however I ignore them for the most part. If I say something intelligent, I'm just a, "loser Yankees fan." If I try and make a distinguishable argument, I get holy hell from both the Yankee fans (If I stick up for another player, especially Boston) and from the Boston fans. *sigh* Anyway, to conclude, I'm looking forward to a great competitive season. The Sox will annihilate the Blue Jays in the End, and we will see who gets into post-season play: Yankees, Rays, or Red Sox. It will be two of the three. I hope to see some great games, (although the Yanks and Sox don't meet again for awhile), and we will see if the Yankees can repeat and get #28, or maybe they won't.? GL to Boston, and the A.L. East looks like its going to be a close one this year. Thanks for accepting me on the board and the forums and I hope to talk some great baseball action will the fine members of this community. Wishing Everyone the Best Always, W

I DO feel strongly, because too many B.Red Sox fans want to crucify the Yankees, and too many Yankee fans are talking sh*t with nothing to back it up. I love both teams to be honest, (obviously you have to root for 1, and that's the Yanks in my opinion). I have some of my best friends living in Boston, however I was born and raised in NY. I gotta go with the Yanks, but I respect the competition and the way these two teams compete against each other. Which Ump said he doesn't like doing Yank vs. Sox games because they are too long? There's been so much drama with Umps this season I forgot It's a testimony to how these two teams play each other, and the desire to beat the other team! I'm not a hater of the Red Sox, more than I hate any team preventing the Yanks from getting #28. I love the games; the stress, how every pitch matters, the excitement, and how they react to each other. I say go Yanks, Go R Sox, hopefully no more 3-0 comebacks, and lets play a great season!! BTW Theo is great, so you Theo Bashers nees to chill, you got 2 WS titles under him, relax!!

I'm not talking sh*t, but I wanted to express my opinion, I really respect Red Sox fans!!! I grew up in the Washington Heights projects in Manhattan and also Coney Island in Brooklyn. I'm a Yankee fan by nature, my parents actually met at a Yankee games; so not for them I wouldn't be here 2day. (which I'm sure some of you wish) I have to say, you are all behind your team and the willingness to win is incredible. Not like most Yankees fans who are fake and cannot even name even the 1st 5 batters in the lineup. f***, most Yankee fans can't even name 5 batters total in the lineup. They are ignorant losers who have no idea about the intricacies of B-Ball. Living in NY, and seeing the rivalry for what its all about (been to 9 Yankees vs Red Sox games), including '04, when I wouldn't leave my house for 7 days and took work off to lament; I think that Red Sox fans are pretty cool. Not because of Jimmy Fallon and Drew Barrymore in "Fever Pitch", that stupid movie about the Red Sox winning in'04, they deserved it, historic!!! They did what they needed to do. That truly was the greatest comeback in sports history (sorry Bruins fans from this year:() All I wanted to say is that I believe the Sox started this whole "rivalry" action. The Yankees are all about titles, they don't care who they beat. (Braves in '96 & '98, Padres in '99, Mets in 2000, Philly in '09). The Yankees could lose EVERY game to the Red Sox in 2010, but if they win the WS it's a successful season. The Red Sox, If they only won 19 games in 2010, but all wins were against the Yankees they would consider it an ok season. The point is, the Yankees don't CARE about the Red Sox, right now they are more worried about the Rays, because they just want WS titles. The Red Sox however, have some unknown, weird vendetta against the Yankees where every game the Red Sox play against the Yanks is like their WS...?? The end goal is to win the WS, not beat any team a certain amount of times. I think that the Red Sox can win a lot of WS's of they forget about the Yanks and focus on the big goal, winning WS titles. We still got 27, I think one day the Red Sox will pass that, but not until they realize that it's about winning, not just beating the Yanks. Peace out to my boy Gino and all my friends in Boston. GL, season is far from over, Yanks might not win sh*t...
