HEYYYYYY....I live in OK...and LOVE THE YANKEES.......Just cause you hate NY...does not mean you have to hate the Yankees....BOOOOO for you Monsinour

GO YANKEES
The sooner the yankees lose the sooner i dont have to listen to every tom dick and harry talk about them. I hate the state of NY and all the sports teams associated with this pitiful state. Do you know how annoying it is for me to try and talk sports with someone? Here is an example:
bob: you see the game last night?
me: no, was too busy reading about how great my buckeyes are this year.
bob: college sports suck, you need to get into the pro sports.
me: you say that because the college teams around here suck in football. syracuse? rutgers? penn state this year?
bob: the orange are perrinal contenders in basketball
me: doesnt that season start like months from now? besides, we both know that football is the sport of choice in this county now with all these baseball "players" taking the juice.
bob: yea, it did put some tarnish on the american pasttime
me: tarnish? you have people who openly admitted to cheating the game who will probably make the HOF when Pete Rose cant even get a whiff of cooperstown. BTW, your sport needs a better location and venue for its HOF.
bob: dont go picking on cooperstown, its a nice quaint small town
me: exacly, anyone who wants to get there has to fly in here and the drive the 2 hours to get there. Once there, if they are going to fast on mainstreet, they will drive right past it because it looks like the town post office.
bob: hey now, you need to stop
me: why, because reality is too real and embarrasing? Face it, baseball doesnt even hold a candle to NASCAR let alone football. If your not careful, freaking golf is going to pass you by.
bob: so you dont like baseball at all?
me: i used to. I seen the detrioit tigers back in 84 when they won it all. watched the cardinals attempt to win it all only to have their fastest player get run over by an automatic tarp roller. I mean, he was the fastest right? a tarp roller? LOL Baseball doesnt matter to me any more, the first strike did it for me. When people making 10 to 15 mill a year, well less than a year, complain that its not enough, its time to get out. Now look at ticket prices. And people wonder why the Rays cant sell out. Its called a fixed income.
bob: well we contstantly sell out. We dont have enough seats in the stadium actually.
me: well yea, when you buy the best players, and then laff at Bud when you pay the luxury tax, who couldnt sell that out? and how do you afford the Luxury tax? Why its called YES, Yankees Entertainmt System. I can honestly say that is one channel on my tv that has only been on once, ever. Steinbrenner, god rest his soul, was a buckeye and there was a buckeye game that wasnt going to be carried by anyone. So George, a buckeye remember, decided to have his tv network broadcast the game.
bob: yea George was a buckeye, but we dont hold that against him. Its a good thing that the yanks made the second round this year. Now the team will break even with those extra home games
me: whatever, baseball sucks. GO SOX
bob: FU
me: whatever, you let me know when you want to talk about a sport that acutally matters in the fabric of this country.
bob: Baseball does matter
me: then why are half your playoff games on a cable network? Not everyone has cable in this country.
bob: um.....................Turner wanted to have his braves on his network?
me: when was the last time you missed a playoff game for the NFL?
bob: never
me: and when was the last time a playoff NFL game was on cable exculsively?
bob: never
Me: Hmmmmmmm. you sure baseball matters?
(this is where i leave)

you know, next year, every BCS Bowl game will be on ESPN. Your logic would imply that college football doesn't matter either...

That is 100% correct sir! Dont think that I am OK with the idea that starting 1/1/2011 all of the BCS games are going to be on ESPN exclusively. It was a poor decision for the BCS to make, but ESPN offered the most $ and the BCS being money grubbing scum took it.

Monsinour....I had typical "Ohio St fan" come in to my golf course yesterday inquiring about golf rates...He was in his mid 30's and a few pounds overweight, he was wearing OSU basketball shorts, a Rose Bowl T-shirt from this year, and an OSU hat. Can't imagine a more dorky looking person....Fashion Rule: NEVER wear more than one item at a time to support "your team" unless you are at an actual game....From having had the Buckeye fan base here in West Phoenix for BCS games 2 of the last 4 years, this was I'm afraid the typical Buckeye fan.
I like Texas's chances, they really have to feel they just need 1 of the first 2, then they have Cliff Lee going in game 3. As good as Petitte is in postseason, he's no Cliff Lee.

What exactly makes him a "typical" Ohio State fan? I of course am incredibly biased as I got a degree from there, but I think that's a pretty baseless generalization about a fan base. I got my undergrad in SEC country, attended an ACC school, and then came to Ohio State. I can tell you point blank that other than Auburn and Alabama, I haven't ever seen a fan base as dedicated AND knowledgable about their team than Ohio State. Unlike most teams, the typical OSU fan actually has a pretty good idea of what's going on...

The rule of "never wear more than one item at a time to support your team unless you are at a sporting event for said team" is broken VERY often by "OSU fan".
Wear just an OSU hat = fine
Wear just an OSU t-shirt = fine
Wear OSU basketball shorts = idiot....unless playing for OSU basketball team
Wear all three together = clueless idiot married to chunky girl that also went to OSU.

We're you fat as a child? Or beaten up by a fat kid as a child? Cause you sure do have a deep rooted hatred of the overweight...

Nope, never been fat. No, no fat kid ever beat me up that I remember....Have I made other posts against overweight people that I don't remember? I suppose I would prefer to have people maintain a healthy weight, a high percentage of people with health issues are overweight, now that we will be putting more of our tax $$$'s toward people's healthcare...But that is a whole other issue now isn't it.
Sorry I offended you that the guy was a little tubby and his wife looked like a bowling ball. He could have been skinny, he still would have looked like a dope.

lol, now that is funny. Typical OSU fan. However I see no problem wearing a ball cap and a t-shirt. Of say the texas rangers or something. Now here is a question. In this rule what would it say about wearing an astros hat with a texas rangers polo, with a 2 sq inch team logo?

that is the most rediculous thing i have ever read. Your just ticked that the huskies havent mattered in the grand scheme of things since the late 80's. It is nice that they are starting to make the upward climb in relevance. Here's to hoping that they dont slip during that climb when Locker is gone.
There is nothing wrong with supporting your team by wearing more than one item of clothing with logos on them. What looks stoopid and moronic to you looks fine to others. Its personal preference. While I am an OSU fan, I dont wear multiple articles of clothing with logos on them. I have to think that the shorts looked bad, but if he thought they were fine, who are you to say he is a moron.
As far as fatness is concerned, if we take a stright line approach to the government controlled BMI, about 90% of americans are overweight. thats nuts. I am fat and loving life. You can pay for my healthcare and I thank you.
