I know plenty of neutrals that absolutely hate Yankees/Red Sox series, and I'm leaning towards their side now.<BR/><BR/>Fuck the term "MFY". I'm sorry, but I had to say it. We (I include myself) give those fucknuts in the Bronx way too much goddamn motherfucking credit, and it makes me sick to the bottom of my fucking stomach. They're not even the motherfuckers we're CHASING this year, for God's sake! I'm sick and fucking tired of giving those shitheads their own special goddamn fucking nickname, like they're the only fucking team that matters. Why aren't there "MFR" or "MFA" or "MFO" nicknames out there? Beating them counts the exact same in the standings as beating those turds in the Bronx. From now on, I'm only calling them the "Yankees". They're not special. Fuck them.<BR/><BR/>Fucking pennant races are exhausting the shit out of me. Just once I'd like the fucking Red Sox to blow their division out of the water like the Angels are doing and coast into October. I know it's impossible since the teams in the AL East are miles better than the fucking shitty ass teams in the West, but still. I'm nearing the end of my fucking nerves and July's not even done yet.<BR/><BR/>Whew. That felt good.

Except for the Bruins, the city's been winning everything lately. The Sox winning two out of four years has been a godsend. I'm fine with Tampa, Baltimore or Toronto getting their act together and taking the East flag. <BR/><BR/>BUT I'M FUCKING PISSED OFF BEYOND BELIEF THAT WE'RE TANKING TO THE GODDAMN MOTHERFUCKING YANKEES AGAIN!!!!!<BR/><BR/>I don't know how you people feel, but judging from the last three days there seems to be a major conspiracy afoot involving MLB, Fox, and the Pirates to get the Steinfucker Pinstriped Brown Shirts back into the World Series. Did you see those fucking strike calls Friday night? And whose dick did Cashman suck to get the spastic Buccos to gift wrap a .330 hitter and dominating lefty reliever to them for what amounted to a used jock strap and couple packages of Beer Nuts? I demand a fucking investigation now, Selig, you Yankee-sucking creep.<BR/><BR/>The only possible good news I can cling to in the next two months is the fact that the Bronxian Pricks have TEN games to play with the Angels, notorious for butt-fucking them when it counts.<BR/><BR/>And Nancy Drew, you need to start hitting 420-foot homers with actual people on base. Lazy fag.<BR/><BR/>Thanks.
