Speaking of Giambi, hate the Yankees because everyone signs with them. Jason Giambi has openly courted the Yankees through the media over the last few months, and will probably sign with them during the offseason. Mike Mussina, the best pitcher in the American League who isn’t hurt every year, did the same last season. Players join the Yankees now because it’s an easy way to get a ring, and the Yankees have the resources to make it happen. And if they’re underachieving halfway through the season, they simply trade for another...

...Hate the Yankees because you hate manager Joe Torre. You know you will later. Sure, he looks harmless enough, almost cuddly. And he’s a good story—a below-average manager and a nice guy who had the good fortune to join the Yankees when the payroll hit $100 million. But then he’ll put Derek Jeter—who had a mediocre season—on the All-Star team ahead of Oakland’s Miguel Tejada, and invite about 80 other undeserving Yankees to the Midsummer Classic, and you?...

...Hate the way Scott Brosius—Scott Brosius—has won three championships with the Yankees while great ballplayers like Tony Gwynn have retired with none. Hate Mariano Rivera’s sub-1.00 postseason ERA. Hate The Curse. Hate Tim McCarver’s obvious broadcasting bias. Hate how the sportscasters fawn over what class acts the Yankees are—as if Seattle’s John Olerud and Edgar Martinez ran around strangling cats in their spare time...
