However, I dont think you realize how deep the feelings about the Yanks go.

I know how deep they go. Right down to that big spot of jealousy in your heart. The most successful team in Baseball- of all time! No team will ever duplicate what the Yankees have done because they are still doing it!
However, although I am a Yankee fan, I do congratulate the DB's. It was a good, solid, clean World Series. Can't wait for the re-matych next year.

Yes, you are right. Its called "schadenfruede", or taking pleasure in the troubles of others. But tonight is my night, and the night of all others who don't like the Yankees. In reality, I actually like all of them with the exception of Steinbrenner and Clemons, who have the NO class (Throwing at Piazza's head last year was Bush league). So I guess you like to defend the actions of Clemons since you like to praise the Yanks so much? At any rate, with the league skewed so much, any other result for the Yankees besides a World Championship is basically a failure.
