Is it because they are so last century?
Is it because the owner outspends and doesnt allow other teams a chance to compete?
Is it because 90% of thier fans love to rub it our face?
Is it because they have the best players that are without a "ring" in the 21st century?
Or do you love them just because they wear pinstripes?
Or do you love them because you know deep down inside you'll never be as good as they were?

Should I take this as a slap in the face? Or a complaint from a Tigers fan? Not being rude man, just asking... I'm a die-hard Yankee fan, I respect all MLB teams but I will remain loyal to the Yanks! However I love the Yankees for all the historical reasons, for everything they did in the past has a reason and a meaning. I know the "New" New York Yankees will never ever be the same however it is just like the Raiders, they are stuck in the thought of yesterday and not wanting think about today as much as they claim.... However the Yankees need to rebuilt and establish that they are the team to beat with any stragetry possible....

Personally I hate 'em, and I'm a New Yorker.
They're a totally bought outfit. The wealth of the operation means that they can buy all the best players form other teams. Personally I think that ball clubs that come from a certain place should feature ballplayers from that place. All else is hoax. Otherwise they should take the city names off the teams. It's all a huge corporate munge.
But by identifying the cities in the team name, I guess they get to bilk the taxpayers for arena funding. You know, if players can make millions, and managers hundreds of millions, why the hell should the public ever pay for the construction or maintainance of a ball park?
I'm dead serious. Professional sports is a major scam.

seek for the character of the gamers extra effective than their record. Wright is remarkable and looks a gentleman of the sport. yet I might desire to declare a similar approximately Jeter. The Yanks have some prima donnas as does any group. optimistically we root for the Jeters and Wrights extra. I grew to become a Dodger fan many some years in the past and it exchange into by way of fact of Campenella, Duke Snider, Gil Hodges, and Jackie Robinson. It exchange right into a extra ideal time then to be a baseball fan yet there are nevertheless some genuine gamers obtainable rather of in simple terms businessmen.

The question should be: Why do so many people hate on the yankees?
Is it because:
You're jealous that there players get paid so much?
You're tired of seeing them be in tha playoffs every year?
You're team hasnt won a world series in 20 sumthin years?Or been to the playoffs for that matter?
You're team sucks so u rather hate on the yanks?
You're favorite player left ur team to play with the yanks?
Or is it that you figure that its so much easier to root for a team not to win, than it is to root for 1 to actually win?
As for why am I a Yankees fan. I am from the The Bronx and I represent my team ever since 1996(Im only 17 so I wouldnt call dat band-wagon jumping)

I loathe the Yankees. Only Atlanta is worse in my eyes. But I will say this. Every team has it's fans that act irrational and stuck up. Hmm! Lets see: Mets a Triple A team of St. Louis! I have said it before to others "the sun shines on the dog's *** every once in while" with reference to St. Louis. The Mets will be back, as will the Spankees. Good luck to Detroit.

personally I don't like them i feel the team has spent so much money on monopolizing the leagues supposed great players. thats why they keep losing because everyone wants to be a star instead of just playing ball. then when they lose they whine because they fell that since they get paid so much they are entitled to win. I got no beef with the fans though.

Who said I liked the Bankees? I spit on them and George Buyswinners, and I give mad props to teams like the Twins, the Athletics, the White Sox, and the Padres for proving that with patience, dedication to the farm, smart long term signings and smart trades, small market teams can fall the big boys, which the Tigers did exactly to Buyswinners and his Bankees.

not everyone loves the yankees...but i love them because i grew up in new york and that is all i ever saw...i remember when i was 7 going to my first baseball game and i saw the magic and passion that the fans have and it was in the middle of the season...i grew up watching the great 96-98-99-00 teams and watching paul o'neil, tino martinez, jeter, berni, chucky, and all of those great team players who were never superstars...i wish that they can go back to those years when it was magical....that is why i love the yankees
