Anyone want to take a guess which team that is?

Well, he should be the highest paid shortstop. We all know who the better fielder is.

Jeter will always get what Jeter wants and A-Rod will always be ripped for accepting a contract worthy of the best player in the game.

Look at the crowd left, down by three. What a weak-ass crowd. Bitches and bandwagoners.

Pretty much sums it up. I guess thats why he needed to start a 2008 one because hes talking about the 2008 team?

Because I know hes not talking about the actual franchise itself.

Either way what a funny title for a thread. Gave me a good chuckle at least.

Quite a few times actually. Why? Considering I was born 30 miles from Yankee Stadium and go there every summer to visit family.

By the vocal minority. I've yet to say anything negative about A-Rod. Most talented player I've ever seen and I'm delighted he's on my team.

I'm the guy that butts heads with the vocal minority.

Bashing 1st ballot HOF'ers like A-Rod (that includes Jeter, folks) is laughable.

Nice to see you here KB

You should have fun with all the Yankee haters on this site.
People always seem to hate greatness. I've noticed that.
