People who live in other baseball cities who are Yankee fans are garbage human beings. Like Cowboy fans who live in NYC.

In the unlikely event the Yankees undergo a Mets-like total tear-down and rebuild, do you really think there would be a concomitant reduction in ticket prices? They might try a few incentives like free stuff, maybe retire a couple dozen more numbers to try and juice attendance, but no one is significantly reducing…

“The Mets could be 40 games below .500 and scream for the manager’s head, just as easily as they could be 15 games over .500 and screaming for it again.”

People seem to forget the good ol’ days when the Mets were drawing 3M a year to see Doc and Darryl and Keith and Gary and commanded ALL of the attention; Steinbrenner was bemoaning terrible attendance and threatening to move his afterthought squad to NJ if the city didn’t build him a new stadium in Manhattan.

I’m not saying Yankees ‘roided harder than other teams

When the Mets do well it sends Yankee fans into paroxysms of rage and misery. That is all the reason anyone needs to root for the Mets, in these playoffs and anywhere anytime.

“Downtrodden”? You won like 5 division titles in a row recently! GTFOOH.

“Smelly bear grease”???

Curtis is also the only player I have seen in decades of attending games that acknowledges fans during play. Kids (and dopey adults) call out to him in RF, and he waves to every one of them (after the pitch, obviously). He seems like a really great guy.

You and crino are the true heroes among Met fans. I saw the Mets win one WS in person, and have fleeting, flashes of recollections of their other one. They haven’t exactly done much to earn your loyalty, so good on you!

You loathsome promoter of the patriarchy. True Progress will be when football is banned altogether - it’s a disgusting display of misogyny that glorifies the exploits of males while totally minimizing the contributions of women and the differently abled. Cheering for a touchdown is literally spitting in the face of…

“Sun Devil” is offensive both to worshipers of alternate deities as well as people with protoporphyria. That name makes me feel neither safe nor accepted. I demand a change now.

Frank Miller doesn’t hew to the progressive social justice ethos that every other writer in his field does! Clearly he is deranged/stupid/fascist/racist! All proper-thinking peoples should celebrate his demise when it comes.

Halloween was the best day of the year for a kid in the 70s. As soon as you were in like 2nd Grade you were allowed to trick-or-treat unsupervised. The sheer excitement and fear of the unknown knocking on strangers’ doors made for hours of fun. Then when you got older, like 5th grade, you had to worry about the older…

Not to mention... a 24-hour gas staion/party store with a fried chicken/pizza place inside of it? What?

How hot is this soup that someone picked it up, took it home, called and complained, went back to the store, then threw it at the clerk and it still burned Po?

Same thing

You are onto something with Peak Fantasy. Remember about 10 years ago when everyone in America except me was playing Texas Hold ‘em? That shit was everywhere - on several TV channels, celebs were all over it, everybody was playing weekly with their friends, coworkers would regale you with stories about the flop and…

Whenever I watch live sports, I switch to the Velocity channel, then back to my game. So then come commercial break I hit the ~Last~ button on my remote and watch some meathead work on a Camaro, or an auctioneer sell one. Oft times it’s more interesting than the football game and I don’t return.

What is it about bear visits that brings out the grating in people? Those little girls screeching about their swimmies in the backyard bear pool party video might have been worse.
