olivier in france Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 2 Championships in 100 years don't make you great... Believe, or not... Typical Yankees fan to think you have to win championships to be "great". The Red Sox was for decades, is and will be a great club and the number of championships they have won or will win has nothing to do with that. Greatness in sport is a much more complicated matter than rings, it involves tradition, fans, history, spirit... The Bills or the Browns have never won a Superbowl and they are great clubs, much greater than Superbowl winners like the Bucs or the Ravens... The Sabres have never won a Stanley cup but they are about ten times greater than Stanley Cup winners Lightning or Hurricanes... Who 'd dare to say the Chicago Cubs are not a great club? Of course they are!

Typical Red Sox fan to say "you don't have to win championships to be great".... Another article about what it meant to the community.... For those of you who think it's money grubbing or whatever other stupid comments you can make about it.

Ned Flanders Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 The Yankees themselves, I can tolerate...and their trip to VT was a tremendous gesture...it's their fans who think the sun rises and sets on the South Bronx, that cause the most heartburn. "Rooting for the Yankees takes all the courage, imagination, conviction and baseball intelligence of Spam. It's like rooting for Brad Pitt to get the girl or for Bill Gates to hit Scratch 'n' Win. (This is why I'm proposing legislation that would allow only those born in one of the five New York boroughs to be Yankees fans. All others who root for the team will be considered overdog-loving, Eveready-chucking, bandwagon-hopping, fair-weather, brownnose, pucker-lipped human goiters and be required to turn in their pinstriped underwear or be tossed into the East River with only Chuck Knoblauch to throw them a life preserver.)"

Campy Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 Yankees to play at VaTech... People talk all the sh-- they want about the Yankees but this is the type of stuff none of the haters ever talk about. When I was a baseball fan, I hated the Yankees. But you gotta' give them the nod on this one.
SilverNRed Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 Nice gesture by the Yankees. Also nice of MLB to let Joe Saunders (VT alum) pitch with a VT hat on last season right after the tragedy: Picture (GO ANGELS )
