You've never known a Yankee fan that was a douche towards Mets fans, and you're going to try and point out every humiliating thing about the Mets simply because "it's fun to laugh at losers." Yeah, I don't know a Yankee fan that's a douche to Mets fans either. Wonder how that idea got started.
Yep, fuck Alio, too. This is why everyone hates the Yankees fan base. TypeO, Alio.. they're great guys to talk to baseball about in the regular season, now they're gigantic douchebags. Fuck 'em.
Exactly. All the Yankees fans I know are nothing but respectful towards the Mets and never take unnecessary shots at them. I really can't figure out why so many people hate the Yankees and their fans.
Or maybe some of us are just sick and tired of certain people flooding our threads/creating new ones with their anti-Yankees bullshit. It's been going on for years. For those years I made every attempt to be nice, to talk pure baseball, and not to talk shit to Mets fans. But the same clowns pull the same shit over and over. This thread is just a little bit of that same ol' medicine. Don't like it, yell at your compatriots. I've said many a time I hold no ill will towards the Mets, nor their fans. I've interacted with all of you many a time. Go back and look at anything I've ever written regarding the Mets. Except playful banter with 17a, I've never been anything but cordial and nice. So anyone who wants to act like I'm a dick for this thread can kiss my ass.
I'll back Alio up on this one. Mets fans raided the ALCS thread to bitch and whine about the Yanks and root for the Angels for no other reason than to piss us off.
Wait! This isn't true! I was rooting against the Yankees, but all of my posts in the thread were completely unbiased. You're fucking incredible. And after the Yankees won, the first thing I did was take a shot at the fucking Mets. If anything, YOU'RE being a whiny little cunt.
How about thinking about taking the high road? I'm a Mets fan who has barely looked at the ALCS thread, hasn't really said anything wrong, and now I have to put up with this shit, and it's OK because you guys are a little sensitive.
This is what "started" it: which led into He's being a pussy. That's what was "raiding" the ALCS thread.
It blew up after that because of his comments about the Mets fans there. Edit: This was Yisman's post around the time the game ended, too: Most of his other posts leading up to the end were about the really terrible commentating job and the fact that the game was ridiculously long or that it should have been delayed because of rain, etc. Clearly anti-Yankee.
looks like this is turning into a contest of proving who was meaner to whom.... i'm a met fan, and for the record, yankee and met fans can try and force to play nice, but deep down, they'll always harbor animosity towards each other, for whatever reason. hope the yanks crush the phils, cuz i can handle a NY team winning the series over a team/fanbase in philly that i fucking despise like nothing else.
FTR, Yisman had nothing to do with my starting this thread. Rich neither, though I'm a bit disappointed with his anti-Yankee rants of late. This thread was more for the JoeJets of the board. As far as animosity, I truly have none for the Mets or their fans. I don't mean this to sound dickish at all, but 99% of the time, I don't even think about the Mets. The only time I do is when their fans start ranting, or there is something about them in the news (a nice winning streak, or a big injury.) Which is why I can never understand all this hate that comes from Mets fans. Save that energy for teams you actually face.
1. The JoeJets of this board is like 2 or 3 people. 2. You clearly have SOME animosity for the Mets or their fans, judging by this thread. 3. 99% of the time? A bit of an exaggeration.
How many times have the Wilpons been suspended like George? Wow so they didn't get ripped off. What a horrible thing.
Yeah, it's only a handful of people who go out of their way to be a pain in the ass. Honestly, except for the people who make an effort to be asses, I really don't have any animosity for Mets fans or their team. I do really mean that. Sox fans I despise. Mets fans I'm indifferent towards. Again, not to sound dickish, it's just the truth. 99% is only a slight exaggeration, and only because given that I live in Queens, they're unavoidable. I really don't think about the Mets at all unless I'm talking directly to a Mets fan, or the Mets are on the news. In all honesty, this thread wasn't meant to tweak nerves of people such as yourself. Though what you're dealing with right now is the same exact garbage I've been dealing with for years on this board. Sorry, but the "rise above" stuff only lasts so long. Don't sweat it. This was a one time thing for me. I even partially regret it to begin with, since people like you and Yisman (who is probably the biggest pure baseball fan on the board) got tweaked, and that was never my intent.
