I still remember the beer cups, at least one filled with urine being thrown onto Greg Vaughn in the '98 World Series.

How do you know, did it smell funny? The Fenway faithful threw garbage on the field almost forfeiting the game a few years ago.

I remember the reports of the players wives being threatened and cursed in the foulest language available.

I remember Roger Clemen's wife and kids at Fenway in 99. Cleveland fans like to make fun of dead mothers. And just about every other city riots during a world championship. Your point?

The name Eddie Whitson ring a bell for you Yankoff fans?

Sure, he kicked Billy's ass.

How 'bout the World Series that was lost, except for the intervention of a kid and a myopic umpire.

Now I'm stumped. I remember a league championship involving fan interference that should have been called. But like Patriot fans say bad calls do not make a game(or in this case a series)

Please, the Bronx Bummers have a great history, and have had a heck of a run, but don't ever try to equate class with that organization and the gatherings of 10's of thousands of dangerous thugs that are known as "Yankee Home Games".

Have you ever been to the Stadium? Or any opposing players park? Yankee Stadium is easy if you sit in the bleachers don't wear opposing team gear and act like a jackass. The good seats are filled with corporate guys for the most part. It's actually worse walking through the neighborhood going to the game and even that aspect tends to get blown out of proportion.

I think I smell a bitter frustrated Redsux fan who can't deal with the fact his team underachieved.....again.

Born and raised in San Diego, dude. The Swoaks can go to he!! too for all I care. Actually I do root for them; for the same reason I root for the Mets. I'm as sick of seeing of seeing pinstripes in October as I am of hearing OOOOOOH OOOOH OOOOOHOOOOOO.

I am an actual baseball fan, having been raised watching the Padres play major legue teams.
