let em bitch. That’s all a Yankee hater does anyway. Nothing but complaining.

Let em.

That is buying the Series is so easy, why don’t the Yanks win every year? It has nothing to do with how high the payroll is, but how they play on the field.

That’s what I’d say. But Bradshaw’s right- Just let ’em bitch. Any comeback or the like will fall on deaf ears anyway.

it’s jealousy. Yankees didn’t break any rules. Just let them hate and enjoy the championship.

I am self-conscious about it b/c that’s all I hear. My in-laws are all Philly fans (so this is an interesting WS to say the least) and it will be the talk around the Thanksgiving table. Not to mention, my sister-in law, who is all of a sudden on the Phillies bandwagon after not even knowing anything about them for the last 15 years she’s been with her husband. And now she’s their #1 fan and the biggest trashtalker. She says, “I just like the Phils because they are real guys who just love baseball. They aren’t in it for the money and out to be or date celebrities like the Yankees.” HUH!? WHAT!?!

Yankee haters have nothing else to say but that!! When I hear those famous words of BullSh*t, I simply put a response in these terms. If the Yankees have trademarked their name and their team logo so that they get a royalty on every piece of merchandise sold — you get money. In a city of millions, with a following of more and more millions outside of NYC MA, then you do the math. OF COURSE THERE WILL BE A LARGE BANK ACCOUNT (rocket science? think not). Look at the Patriots, the Red Sox, the Colts, and now the Vikings… sure most of the teams have made it to the playoffs and one championships, thus getting money from television, but in the end how many t-shirts, hats, and jerseys all of sudden were being worn by “new” fans everywhere. Ending thought… Notre Dame… need I say more?
