if you're not from within 10 minutes of Yankee Stadium you get flamed for rooting for the Yankees.

I think if one spends his time rooting for the Yankees and Duke, he should be prepared for the fact that people will say he's just on the bandwagon. They may not be correct, but theirs isn't an unreasonable suspicion.

Okay, I can deal with this. Though I think the same can be said by those who "root for the Red Sox" this season.

I gotta say, I DO live ten minutes from Yankee stadium (well, about twenty, depending on how long i wait for the 4) and i STILL get flamed for rooting for the yanks. It's ok, though, because when i sit in section 39 of the bleachers i'm finally with my brothers.

I predict Yanks go 162-0, Jeter hits .407, Yanks sweep Sox in ALCS and win the World Series in 3 (they will find a way).

MEbenhoe, btw, just read your "bandwagon fan" post. Knew there had to be a reason i liked you beyond the excellent 6max starting hand chart. I waited in line for four hours in the cold to get the last ticket in the stadium for ALCS game 7 2003. My ticket stub and a 8x10 glossy of Aaron Boone hitting the home run lie framed above my dresser.

I love how you can be from:

Maine
Massachusetts
Rhode Island
Vermont
New Hampshire
Connecticut

and be a "Sox fan," but if you're not from within 10 minutes of Yankee Stadium you get flamed for rooting for the Yankees.

I'll be at the metrodome for Twins Yankees game June 4th, I expect you to follow suit so we can make many ridiculous prop bets.

Knowing this, I don't think there's any way I can miss it.

My dad's a huge Yankee fan too...it'll be a lot of fun knowing you're BOTH going to be pissed at the end of it all... [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
