Yeah, “Yankees suck” didn’t quite cover it.

No apologies necessary. I don’t like comments like “OMG he izzzz so hotttt!!1!” or “Boston sucks!” (hell, even “Yankees suck!” – be original).

But a passioned point of view is perfectly fine.

I agree with Kim–bravo, bravo, Margaret!

Also, I don’t quite hate many people in baseball–but Hank just earned himself a place of honor right up there with Barry Bonds, Alex Rodriguez, and Scott Boras. Congrats, “George W.” Steinbrenner, I hate you.

Margaret: That was awesome! Don’t apologize. I have to remember this and use it when necessary.

I love it!

Oh man, I still feel bad. Again–sorry… Typing can get away from you sometimes. I hope I didn’t offend anyone.

Wow, sorry I myself became a little hostile there. Amazing what a week of being told your team doesn’t deserve to be in the Superbowl because they are “disgusting, talentless cheaters” will do to your temper.

Especially given the content.

Sorry y’all (HA I said y’all)– mea culpa, mea culpa. I love you all still, promise.

Wow. You know, I’m hardly a fan of the Yankees myself, but I’m a little shocked at the level of aggression in that statement. That’s like… anger on a crazy level, because there’s really no logical reason for him to lash out like that in this context. He’s just being mean and angry because he’s a mean and angry person.

Kind of defensive, too, I think.

And to single out the Red Sox too. I love the fantasy the Yanks fans have that somehow the Sox were never serious contenders, that they were always supreme, because clearly the Sox really get under Hank’s skin.

Also, I think the allegation of the same percentage of players—I personally don’t buy that. Sorry. I don’t.

So…

Kiss my gay-marrying, Fenway-loving, Sox-believing, r-dropping, tea-dumping, over-educated and morally superior Bostonian ass, Hank. You’ve got nothing but a heap of clean-cut closet case chokers these days and you know it. Go back to throwing your billions into your little dynasty and let the grown-ups go back to enjoying baseball, you classless scumbag.

Wow, that felt really good.

Oh, screw you, Hank. This is the epitome of attempting to throw someone else into the spike pit to throw suspicion off of you.
