"You were brought to the city to play baseball and contribute to souring a game already handicapped by an illogical resistance to a workable salary cap and revenue sharing structure."
Just a thought

[Bean666]

Or if you feel an undying devotion to a team who's total salary is almost twice as large as the 2nd largest salary team in MLB... which also happens to be from your city too...

"you may also be a "YANKEE" if you are a supreme champion who has utterly dominated sports for the last century winning almost 30 world championships"

utterly dominated? maybe in baseball... but i dont see new york teams winning in other sports oh perhaps because theres so salary cap in baseball? lol

cap or not; yankees wont even make it out of the playoffs this year

"You might be a Yankee if your ancestors were from another continent."

"You might be a Yankee is you won a civil war, then populated many areas of the south, which were already (initially) populated from migrations from the north, and then later forgot and called yourself a southener."

"You might be a Yankee if you consider yourself an American (and fly the American flag only, rather than any that fought against it) and refrain from being anti-American by causing division - i.e. North & South."

Just kidding... Just thought I'd try to fuel something

Honest, right now I am eating some grits with my sister...so don't flame me

You might be a Yankee if you think 75 degrees is hot...
