wateva anybody has to say about yankee fans go ahead and say it, b/c personally i hate those yankee fans as well. and i'm talkin about the ones that talk too much garbage and say dumb things like 26 rings or wateva. I'm a real yankee fan. you dont have to believe me, and thats fine with me (well actually not b/c i hate being told i'm not a real fan when i know i am) Granted i havent been a yankee fan forever. I have told everybody the truth so they understand my story. I never really watched baseball growing up. i only wanted to play it and didnt care who was playing. I collected cards to know the players and wat they did, but didnt care if a game was on tv. I didnt start watching baseball games till 1993. The Yankee were the only team available being that i was in the BRonx and i started to watch their games. I became a fan. I loved Don Mattingly and alot of the other players. I got really serious into it in 1994 and was really disappointed when the season got cut short, b/c it was my real full time season in which i actually paid attention. now from wat i remember, the yankees werent winning much games in 1993. so i didnt become a fan b/c of their winning ways. I didnt even know how many championships they had till i researched it afterwards (i usually do that stuff when i get into somethin, the yankees were no different) so i started learning the history, the players, the times, wateva about them and i became a real fan. I was around when we were filling only 2 million a season. and it botherd me that all of a sudden in 1998 the yanks fill 3 million seats. i was like, where were they before that? then all of a sudden people walked around sayin YANKEES WOOOO! and all that. and once again, i thought where was that before this year? so i hate alot of yankee fans b/c they arent true fans. i didnt follow them in the 80s so i didnt go through ALL the hard times, but like i said before, i didnt watch baseball at all so its not like that should be held against me. i became a fan at a time the yanks were not doin well so i know in my heart i'm a fan b/c they are from the bronx, they are my home team, and i wanna cheer for them. thats why i'm a REAL Yankee fan and thats why i like them.
