Hey there boys and girls. What is the latest and greatest with you guys? Not a whole bunch here. Killing time before my 4pm class. My Senior Portfolio class seems pretty good and it'll be nice to help get a resume and all that jazz ready. Also I have the "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego" theme stuck in my head. You know the one. Also I see

7) Mehh I at times call him Captain of the Douchebags but that's kinda long. :P
11) A-Rod to me always seems like a guy who tries too hard to be cool. He's always one step behind everybody. He has all the talent in the world and he uses it well, but he's just so awkward and an extreme people pleaser. He's all about his image and he just deep down wants to be as liked as guys like Jeter (well to Yankee fans I mean), Ortiz, Griffey, etc. Doesn't mean I like the guy though. I just kinda have some pity for him because of that viewpoint he has. It's kinda sad when you go through life trying too hard to be everything to everyone and getting almost nowhere.
17) Longoria is a Red Sox killer and I think Haren was too but Haren kinda pissed me off sometimes too, Swisher just pisses me off. I dunno why. He has pissed me off since he was on the A's. Nothing to do w/ his Yankee pinstripes. I hate La Russa's ego and Sizemore kinda was a stretch.
18) It's not really the Yankee fans though. It's most other team's fans as well. The whole stereotyping of fans kinda pisses me off and I feel like I have to apologize, which is so lame. I never want to make anybody feel like they have to. Besides, I know some really awesome people who just happen to like the Yankees. THey respect my fandom as well.
20) A-Rod (who once again I dislike but I don't hate), Tanyon Sturtze, and a few others I can't think of at the moment (I'm kinda half asleep now)
AS A YANKEES FAN, I HATE THE YANKEES/RED SOX RIVALRY
I 100% honestly agree with this. I mean it was fun for a while but now it's really really tedious and boring and the hype just makes my brain hurt. I mean I just hate how everybody tries to measure Yankee/Red Sox games like it's a matter of life or death or the wins are worth twice the amount. It's stupid and I hate having to deal with it.

11)Well, in a way, he kinda was like that, but I think the whole "hip and steroid" thing made him aware of himself and he made an effort to start getting his stuff together and forgot about trying to get people to like him this season (Despite his faults, I've always liked him. Even past the steroids. I wasn't pissed at him, just surprised and disappointed You may have your own observations, but that was just my own) Your dislike for him is understandable.
17)I don't really know La Russa, but the rest is understandable.
18)No, I know it's not just Yankees fans. Of course it's other teams included. A lot of them are so ridiculous. To be honest, I used to be like them and I was always stereotyping Red sox fans until I met this girl who was watching baseball. We hit it off right away and became friends. One day I asked her which teams she like and she said she loved the Red sox which shocked me because I thought they were all bad. After I told her that, she said not everyone is like that and that the problem I had was that I made an assumption after dealing with a few bad fans. That's when I realized she was right and I apologized for it. We're still good friends
I hate having to deal with it too. I just want it to stop. Sure, I was happy we finally won a few games, (And I felt bad that the homer happened to the rookie on your team on August 7th, but he wasn't gonna let the guy strike him out willingly. Old lady comparison was funny though) but the hype made me feel uncomfortable and dampened the mood Can't we just play baseball and root for our teams without all the nonsense and boobery behind it? (only every time I say this, I'm always looked at like I have five heads T_T ) It's like it never ends.
