lol, you alright?

So I called a person from Boston a Bostonite...sorry. It's a huge crime to call a person from a city the wrong name! I made a mistake, thanks for lettin me know it's Bostonian.

And yes, I could care less -- meaning I could not care at all. Which is the absolute truth. I don't have problems with people from Boston or Red Sox fans for that matter. But, it seems as if Bostonians (some, not all...I've met some great ones) flip this switch once they hear Yankee fan and Bronx.

It's even more pathetic when Red Sox fans go to home games against other teams and chant, "Yankees suck" repeatedly. Hey, I'm not sayin they have no right to do it. It's your park, have fun. But, don't go at me and immediately think I'm a prick just because I'm a Yankee fan and was born and raised in the Bronx.

Like I said, I could care less what team you root for and where you were born.
