Serious Sox Yankees Poll

[HEyHEY]

Are you a Yankees or Red Sox fan...just wondering what kind of numbers we are dealing with here.

[HEyHEY]

1. kick

[kanrok]

2. Red Sox, BABYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!

[Fuzz]

3. Are you implying that my poll isn't serious?

:( Sad now and slinking away. :)

[HEyHEY]

4. depends which one!

This is alll math baby!

[Red_Storm]

5. Y-A-N-K-E-E-S- !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[proud patriot]

6. as of tonight I'm rooting for the sox

:-)

[SOteric]

7. I'm a Mariners fan.

But if my guys aren't kickin' the Yankee's butts, I'll cheer for anyone that might.

[Spirochete]

15. I'm a Mariners fan, too

but I'm pulling for the Bosox too - for the same reason. Hoping for a Cubs-Sox series.

[Old and In the Way]

8. Long time suffering Red Sox fan.............

I hope I live long enough to see them win the Series....

[WindRavenX]

9. Honestly, it depends on a LOT of variables

Most importantly, the Yankees have Rivera(Mariano, not Juan). In other words, they have a LEGIT closer. Boston? They won't DARE throw BK out against the Yankees; they'd have to be beyond retarded/drunk to do that.
Second, starting pitching for the Sox beyond Pedro: sometimes, it just doesn't function. Pedro is a damn near a given win for the Sox.
Defense: Yankees HAVE been shaky all year...but so has Boston.
Offense: Boston. But lately, NEITHER teams have been hitting well w/RISP, except on Sunday when the Yankees tore the Twins apart.
So basically no one is dominating the other.
I say Yanks in 5 or 6.

14. yeah......AND.....we have DEREK.....

[bookman]

10. I suspect..

..the poll is Yankee haters vs. Yankee fans. As a Yankee fan I have lots of good friends who are Yankee haters. I understand.

I'm not a fair weather fan either. I lived through the "Horace Clark" years.

[Red_Storm]

19. You're right ...........

the poll should be renamed.......obviously there are more Yankee haters participating than red sux fans........

[Kathy in Cambridge]

27. Why are you a Red Sox hater?

Yes, there are those ugly 'Yankees Suck' Red Sox fans, but that's blaming the majority for a minority of neanderthals. My family has had seasons tikets for generations, and we are surrounded by great fans.

I don't blame Yankees fans for the few that toss batteries at players and debris on the field when things don't go their way. Why do you HATE Boston so much? I bet you've never been here...

[LSdemocrat]

11. Cardinals fan for Boston!

The Yankees are evil.

[HuckleB]

12. Niether.

I really don't care who wins this series.

[trotsky]

21. Another neither here.

But I'll root for the Sox just because the Yankees annoy the piss out of me.

[JohnKleeb]

13. Baltimore fan for Boston

See I got the avatar. :) for right now

[Zynx]

16. Red Sox!

[MaineDem]

17. Sox fan since 1960 or so

I love 'em good times or bad!

[NewYorkerfromMass]

34. Ted Williams, Tony C, YAZ!!!!

Yeah, Yaz isn't just another 80's band.... Been a fan since '74!!!

[youngred]

18. Yes

I have close friends in both camps, both teams are fun to watch and I wouldn't mind seeing win it.

YR- the Non-baseball fan

[baldguy]

20. I'm not much of a Sox fan . . .

BUT I ABSOLUTLY HATE THEM GOD-DAMNED Y A N K E E S ! ! !

[Kathy in Cambridge]

22. Red Sox=Democrats, Yankees=Republicans

Yankees are the best team money can buy.

The Red Sox are the underdogs, but the best hitting underdogs in baseball.

GO SOX!!!

[Uzybone]

23. I hate that analogy

If you go that route then Red Sox = Repuke lite...after all they are the SECOND best team money can buy.

[Red_Storm]

24. Yep...........

As I posted in other threads......red sox fans crow about the Yankees spending money but they don't and won't talk about their own team's payroll.......they are pathetic and delusional....

[Red_Storm]

25. and further idiocy..........

saying that Yankees = republicans and red sox = democrats.............leave it to a red sox fans to write such cornball responses........

[soupkitchen]

26. First game I ever saw live. Yankees, Boston.

Saw Mickey Mantle, Ted Williams, and Jackie Jensen hit home runs.

[Red_Storm]

29. Attention:

All clueless and delusional red sox fans.......


2003 Red Sox Payroll

105 Million dollars

[Chico Man]

31. And your point is?

Who gives a crap.

[mac56]

33. Red, Red, Red....

Wanna go again?

2003 Yankees payroll = $158 million. Half again as much as the Sox.

[Chico Man]

30. Cool - sounds like home run derby (nt)

[Chico Man]

28. The only pro ball park I've been to is Fenway park

I've been a sox fan my whole life. 86 still hurts bad. I was 9 years old then. This is the year.

[midnight armadillo]

32. YANKEES SUCK!

'nuff said.

[playahata1]

35. YANKEE FAN AND DAMN PROUD OF IT!

YOU FENWWAY FREAKS ARE GOIN' DOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWN IN FLAMES!

As usual.:nuke:

[DinahMoeHum]

36. Yankee fan since age 7. . .

been through the good, the bad, the ugly, the tragic, and the glorious with them for over 40 years!!

I was 9 when I first went to Yankee Stadium (June 1965) and actualy saw Mickey Mantle swing his bat and hit a home run to win the game. (he was in the twilight of his career then, but what does a kid know anyway?)

My prediction: Yankees in SEVEN barn-burners!!
