Paco Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 Hey JSP...I'm just curious. Is there a football team you have your eye on as well, or are you waiting until December to see who's in the best position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATBNG Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 As a Sox fan, I would term these members of the organization as "classy" on the Yankees. Rivera, Williams, Jeter, Matsui, Lieber, Torre, Gordon, Sierra, El Duque, Randolph. Not classy - Sheffield, Brown, Giambi, Sturtze, Lofton, Posada, Mussina, Big Stein, little Stein and (especially) Rodriguez. It's a tie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpile Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 After a lifetime of rooting for the Bills, Sabres and Phillies, I've decided it's time to back a winner for a change. That's right, the Neeew Jork Jankees. They don't choke in the clutch, and bring it EVERY year. So with that....>GO YANKS< Kick some sorry Red Sux arse. Those mullets have the Pats, they don't need the Red Sux too. 71937[/snapback] I jumped on about 40 years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverNRed Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 I see a team with CLASS players like Jeter and A-Rod, Matsui and Bernie Williams. They're impossible not to root for. Especially when my chosen baseball team has losers like Bobby Abreu and Jimmy Rollins playing on it. Thanks, but no thanks. And as for the Bills, well we all know what a disaster this season's gonna be. Especially after they lose this week. 71944[/snapback] A-Rod is the exact opposite of class player. But Hideki Matsui, now that guy is a ballplayer. I wish fans, at least in America, realized how good he is. I like the breakdown above. Half the Yankees are great players you love watching and the other half are mercenary scum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zona Posted October 17, 2004 Share Posted October 17, 2004 J-Bone.... that's good stuff... C'mon Joe. You are not seriously going to be a bandwagon fan loser are you? I have never met a true BILLS fan who was ever a BW fan. Bills fans pick their beloved sports teams and NEVER switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
