    No, I'm pretty sure Arizona Cardinals fans and Atlanta Braves fans realize they suck.

    Nah, there was a time when Braves fans were pretty puffed up about themselves.
    Anyway, the A-Rod possible trade is a manufactured story.

    Did you ever notice that the melody for Bobby McFerrin's 'Don't Worry, Be Happy' and Four Non-Blondes' 'What's Going On' are the same?

    Yes, New York fans do have the right to boo their own players, though I see no evidence that it's what "great" fans do. Furthermore, when the booing becomes so "popular" and "trendy" that it causes evidence of decreased play by the best player on the team, does that give said fan base the right to boast themselves as the best? It seems to me like they're the worst, since they are absolutely no help toward the team they are there to boost.

    The fans are there to watch baseball and be entertained, not to give the team a boost.

    Funny how the newb comes on and blasts an entire group of fans without mentioning his own affiliation (though I have a fair guess as to what it might be). Fetch me a beer, pussy.

    Some talk radio clown today was talking about Rodriguez being traded to his hometown Marlins. That the Marlins have the young players the Yankees need, and that Pay-Rod would keep the team in Miami.

    I'm not a Red Sox or a Yankees fan. I'm in the other 99 percent of baseball fan bases. Just don't tell ESPN we exist. They won't believe it.
