Yankees! Been a fan for years! Too bad they got beat this year....maybe next year.

I was a Cleveland Indians fan when I was a kid but I just don't watch any sports now. Since I grew up in Ohio I would still consider myself an Indians fan....if forced at gunpoint to give an answer.

When I was 9 years old, my father got some tickets to Yankee Stadium from a friend of his. It was 1961. I had seen Mickey Mantle on television for a couple of years. I sort of knew who Roger Maris was. And Whitey Ford. So when we got to the ballpark, I was pretty excited. Whitey was pitching against the White Sox. Mickey struck out a couple of times. But Roger Maris hit a home run. Some guy named Johnny Blanchard hit two. He almost hit a third in a row, but the White Sox outfielder went into the stands to catch it. I later learned that if that wen out it would have been five consecutive home runs for Johnny Blanchard. Four in a row was, and cointinues to be the record. I saw Yogi, Bobby Richardson, Clete Boyer, Elston Howard...all of my baseball heroes that day. And at Yankee Stadium. Of course, that solidified my Yankee Fandom for life.

Nothing much has changed since then. Through the championship years, and the Roger Repoz disasters, the CBS ownership and long droughts between winning seasons, I am and always will be a Yankee Fan. It's not about the rings. It's not about the hype. It's about that day in 1961 when Mantle struck out and Roger hit a home run. And about a kid who got the chance to see it all with his father.

lol chris!!!!!!!! promise not to hold you at gunpoint!!!!!!!!!

well, the Phillies are done and I really hate the Giants now. So... just because I like to pick a team to follow, I am rooting for the Rangers. I know they are the underdogs win but I hate the Giants that much. I wish Cody Ross would break a major limb on his body! I really am not mean that way but I swear the guy is on steroids. He seems to be too good to be true!

well, my favorite baseball team IS NOT the Giants. They beat my Phillies and I hope Cody Ross decides to retire! He is our arch nemisis. since the Phillies did not make it into the World Series this year, I was rooting for Cliff Lee and the.
Rangers! I just hope that the Phillies do not get rid of Jason Werth!!!!!!! they should pay him whatever he asks for. He is worth his weight in gold! Three more months until spring training!

Oakland Athletics. Now that the team was sold and new owners have relaxed the portfolio a bit, I think it just goes from strength ..

I've always been a Reds fan, having grown up about 2 hours from the Queen City...unfortunately, being a homer ain't what it used to be. As Jerry Seinfeld says, you're really just rooting for the laundry.

Yankees! -new yorker all the wayyy
