I have the Yanks and the Dodgers in the world series with Joe Torre getting the best of his former team, winning the world series for the dodgers.

GoWings1905 2,694 Report post Posted October 7, 2009 (edited) Red Sox/Cardinals for me with the Cardinals winning the World Series. As long as the Yankees don't win it all, I don't really have a rooting preference. Edited October 7, 2009 by GoWings1905 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Electrophile 3,554 Report post Posted October 27, 2009 My favorite thing about the MLB playoffs are all the people who hate the Yankees so much, they'll root for other teams they hate or don't know much about just to say they're rooting against the Yankees. God damn it makes me giggle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wingsgirl001 983 Report post Posted October 27, 2009 (edited) ... Actually, I started watching the Phillies last year (around July or so) when my friend got me into them. So I actually am pretty familiar with the team and their players and how they play. I'm not just rooting for them because they're playing the Yankees, I'm a fan of the team and I want them to win. The fact that it ended up being the Yankees just made it a bonus. Sorry, I wasn't sure if that was a general statement or if that was directed at me.

God damn it makes me giggle. I follow baseball religiously and if the Tigers aren't around (usually the case), I do root for any team but the Yankees. It is the most arrogant, obnoxious, self-absorbed fanbase in professional sports. I am by no means trying to lump you in that category, but there are plenty of people that despise the Yankees and will root against them. I understand being successful is part of the hatred. Plenty of people hate the Red Wings because their team isn't the Red Wings. I respect the Yankees history and appreciate what they mean to baseball. That being said ... Go Phils!
