Which N.Y. baseball team do you like the best and why? or, how did you feel when your hometown baseball team kicked their asses?

They never do. I don't really care, I'm not too fond of either of them.

Lets go Mets..

I hate the Yanks with a passion.
I have the YES network in hopes of watching them lose to San Diego.
(LOL just kidding...I have it cuz they have Man Utd soccer games on there)
But I do hate them.

Neither of them. I don't like the Yankees because of their... buying patterns... And I don't like the Mets because they're in the NL East and thus in direct competition with Montreal.

Simple.

I pull for them both except when a victory would be in conflict with the best interests of the One True Team, the Chicago Cubs.

This is possible because I was born in NYC but now live far away where there aren't any other fans to point out how illogical it is to root for archrivals at the same time.

If there was no Steinbrenner, I'd like the Yanks a lot more. And then the only redeeming factor of the Mets is Kaz...so, they both womp.

I hate the Yankees just because of their deep financial pockets. Dynasty teams just don't fit in in the long run. The Mets are alright.

Seph, you should read up on the Yomiuri Giants. Once you find out about them, the Yankees and their money-power machinations seem downright friendly!

New York Yankees.

I'm a glory hunter, and proud of it? Probably. I see their merchandise a lot, so I guess they're the better team. Commercially, anyway, not seen the Mets play >>;

The Yankees are a better team because they can afford to spend the most, end of story.

It's funny how it was perfectly acceptble for Boston (Who are second in major league payroll, by the way) to alienate their more-than-adequate All-Star shortstop in their pursuit of A-Rod, yet it was "OMG EVUL EMPIUR" when the Yankees got him.

To say nothing about paying Manny Ramirez $160 million total to drop fly balls and run slowly.

Anyway, I pull for the Mets more than the Yankees, just because my dad is a Mets fan.

I love the yankess, but I think that it would be pretty freaking hilarious to see them lose to the Royals.

I am not upset or anything but I would like to comment on your statement about Ramirez being overrated.
He is an all-star with currently a .336 batting average, 23 HR and 68 RBIs..
I dont think i need to say anymore..
