Yea, Just another bush league player
And in the end the Yankees got the last laugh today.

Any other player shows emotion and gets fired up like Joba does after a big out is just showing emotion. Joba does it and its big news

Jobas lone mistake of the day.

I go to 10-15 games a year, so you can suck it. Unless you go to New York at least 5 times a year, you're full of it.

Hmmm...bandwagon...rooting for winning teams...seems appropriate, aren't you a North Carolina fan too?

I spend a month or so each summer in Connecticut. And usually I go to a homestand or 2 when I'm there not to mention road games.

This year I won't be able to hit up the new stadium but I'm still going to see 10 Yankee games.

3 in Minnesota and 7 in California.

If I was a bandwagoner.. I probably wouldn't even watch them. Not to mention that I watch all 162 games a year anyways. Whether were up 20 or down 20. I plan my summer around baseball.
Kinda sad I guess but its how I am.

Plus, If I was a bandwagoner, Don't you think I'd pick a team with a winning record this year and a team with a Cy Young candidate. Like the Royals

My family has been Yankee fans forever. My dad has been going to Yankee games since the 60's.

So @ you calling me a bandwagoner.


And I'm not a UNC Fan. I mainly root for Denver teams Except for the Yankees. I'd have to say that football and baseball are my true loves.

Yup, you are a true fan, let us know who else you root for...

Broncos, Nuggets, Avs, Yankees. Not sure how thats being a bandwagon fan.

You like Mainly Denver teams but then you like the Royals.
Its just like me liking Denver teams but liking the Yankees.

A bandwagon fan is someone who always hops on the winning team. I've been a fan of these teams forever. No matter what our record is. I don't change teams.

So I'm not sure how I'm a bandwagon fan.

A nice tipping story:

The notion that Alex Rodriguez has tipped pitches to opposing players in return for their tipping pitches to him -- one of the more bizarre allegations in the new biography of the Yankees third baseman -- has generally shocked players and executives throughout baseball. It shocked Jim Price, too. But Price, a Detroit Tigers television broadcaster, at least spoke from experience. Price was the Tigers' catcher on Sept. 19, 1968, when he and pitcher Denny McLain conspired to give Mickey Mantle a going-away gift. A few weeks from retirement and tied with Jimmie Foxx with 534 career home runs, Mantle came to the plate in the eighth inning with the Tigers comfortably ahead, 6-1. Detroit had already clinched the American League pennant -- this was before leagues were split into two divisions, let alone three -- and McLain had already won his 30th game. Price, a second-year reserve who was playing to give Bill Freehan a rest, walked out to the mound to give the 9,063 fans in Tiger Stadium one last chance to pay their respects. "When I got there, Denny said, 'Hey, big guy, should I let him hit one' " Price recalled Thursday night in a telephone interview. "I said it was a great idea. Mickey was always nice to me.

So I went back behind the plate and Mickey, like he always did, was tapping the plate with his bat when I said, 'Want us to groove one for you' " Mantle apparently didn't believe Price, but when he saw McLain nodding on the mound, he understood what was going on. "High and tight, mediocre cheese," Price said Mantle responded. McLain served up a few that were apparently not gift-wrapped quite as neatly as the Mick preferred. But then came exactly what Mantle was looking for, and he hit a rocket into the upper deck in right field, the next-to-last home run of his career. "McLain was clapping as Mickey was rounding the bases," Price said. "And when he crossed home plate, Mickey thanked me. The next batter was Joe Pepitone, and he said, 'Give me one, too.' And I go, 'No way, you're not Mickey Mantle.' "

New York Times

Watching ESPN highlights and Philly's OF Werth stole 2nd, 3rd, home in the same inning last night. You don't see that everyday especially stealing home, talk about a pitcher not paying attention and a base runner with some big balls. Also not bad for a guy who is 6-5 @ 225lbs!!

The Rays just lost a game in the bottom of the 9th 11-10 by giving up 9 runs in the last 2 innings...including 7 in the 9th.

So I'm not sure how I'm a bandwagon fan.

I've got your back there. I'm a fan of teams from all over too. I always have been though. I'm not a bandwagon fan either. I've been to games of every team that I like.

NFL: Denver
MLB: Yankees
College Football: Penn State
College BBall: Syracuse
NBA: Denver
NHL: Avalanche

So I'm pretty much in the same boat as you. I don't consider someone liking teams from all over bandwagon fans. Every team that I'm a fan of, I've been a fan of my entire life. A lot of it has to do with it being the same teams my dad rooted for and games he took me to.

I'm going to the Yankees-Rangers game down in Texas on Wednesday! I can't wait! Yankees have been hot lately. Hopefully they can keep it going.

JC4MVP there isn't a bigger bandwagoner than you I have ever met on the Internet forums...Calling people bandwagoners coming from you is a complete joke.
