Brad...help us out with a UK soccer equivalent...

It's kind of equivalent to how supporters of Man U and Manchester City feel about each other or Liverpool and Everton. The Yankees and Mets have darbies but it's three games at each other's stadiums whereas with Manchester and Liverpool it's only one game each.

Yes Met fans do get a bit excited.

Yankees have won 26 World Championships, and 39 american league championships. Yankees have a 104 year history and players such as

Yog and the Babe.......check out the shoes on the Babe!

Lets see now, Mets have won........... two World Championships, oh and lost one to The New York Yankees! And they have won 4 National League Championships............


They have been around for 48 years so you could say they are closing on the Yankees Championships.........they probably only need maybe another 500 or 600 years to catch up........if the Yankees quit playing.

And of course the Mets have had great nick names like "The Wrong Way Mets".........a terrific theme song I think it goes something like:

"Meet the Mets"
Meet the Mets"
"Everyone loves to Beat the Mets"

And who can ever forget such stellar players as

Elio Chacon.......seen here with his famous uniform on backwards shot

Okay you don't have to take my word for it........here are a couple of photos

yes they were taken completly at random the first a typical Yankees fan

the second a typical Mets fan..........judge for yourself

Cricket?? Bugs have nothing to do with it

Oh, and reguarding your question on correct pronunciation of the english language the people from New York/New Jersey do not have an accent.......we speak correctly.........its everyone else on the planet that has the accent!

That statement displays the new york state of mind

The above statements made strictly in fun

In the movies the guys who say things like, Lets go to Joisy for a ride. Or he sang like a canary boid boss, usually wear lumpy suits and have cheeswire and platsic packets so no-one hears you scream and they don't find the body Like Jimmy Hoffa.

Yes but that was a long time ago, we are much more sophisticated and polished today. Okay you can still get a great hotdog off a pushcart on almost any street corner in NYC.......but most of us hold it with a napkin today!

Okay, okay the drink of choice with that hotdog is still a Yoohoo!

I believe this thread has run its course...and if we keep up we'll have Yankee and Mets fans killing each other.

So, to save us from death, this thread is now complete.
