if i cared about baseball, i'd probably be a yankees fan

for the most part, i root for the underdog. i like the upset. i like the lions. i'm liberal. of course i like the underdog. but when it comes to red sox/yankees, i can't help but want the yanks to win. here's why:

1. red sox fans are annoying. they will rip your face off if you say anything remotely anti-sox. if you explain it's b/c you know nothing about baseball, they'll just rip your nose off. they are totally irrational. and that color red hurts my eyes.

2. red sox fans are DESPERATE. you had a curse b/c your team had horrible managers! it's not a REAL curse. you just were never that good! learn from it. get over it.

3. red sox fans care way more about the rivalry than yankees fans. they just do.

which brings me to my final conclusion. the red sox remind me of ohio state. the buckeyes are OBSESSED w/ the OSU/UofM game. their whole existence during the football season revolves around it. they would rather see michigan lose, even if it means a win over michigan would mean less. they are irrational, annoying, and pathetic.

bostonians ... sound familiar?

the yankees represent arrogance, patrician ideals, and the monopolization over its craft. the yankees rarely strive for greatness; they are maintaining it.

for the most part, us michigan folk are the same way. i'm not proud of it, but i just can't help it.
