Yankee

New York Yankees

1. The reason baseball is no fun anymore.
2. The evil empire.
3. A team that posers pretend to have liked since the birth canal, when in fact they only started liking them after they won the Series a few years ago.

Bob: I like the Yankees.
Jim: I will give you ten seconds to get a running start, after which I will hunt you down and murder you.

shank yanker

A middle-aged man who masterbates with a knife while listening to the recorded sound of children screaming.

When the cleaning lady opened the drawer and found a rusted blade and a spooge-stained tape recorder, she knew there was a shank yanker inhabiting the room.

Red Sox-Yankees Rivalry

A fantasy conjured up by Massholes and other New Englanders who actually believe Yankee fans watch baseball with an eye on beating Boston, while Yankee fans are primarily concerned with winning championships. In a true rivalry, one team wins more frequently than the appearance of Haley's Comet.

Hey, go Sox! We finally beat the Yankees with some half-assed fluke! This Red Sox-Yankees rivalry is really heating up - if we win 20 more championships and the Yankees don't win any, we'll be even!

new york yankees

American League baseball team based in The Bronx, New York. They were established in 1901 and currently play in Yankees Stadium. Some famous players include: Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig,Mickey Mantle, Derek Jeter, Joe Dimaggio, Don Mattingly and countless others most of which have been inducted into the baseball hall of fame in Cooperstown.

Undoubtedly the most dominant professional sports franchise in the US and possibly the world. As of now ('06) 26 world series wins, 39 World series appearances and a history of winning, legendary players and professionalism unparalleled to any other ball club in MLB.

lots of people are jealous of the new york yankees because of their success, especially people who troll on Urban dictionary. Yankee fans don't care what others think, we stick by our team through thick and thin.

people point out the obvious by stating that the yankees buy players, no shit sherlock, every team buys players you pay players to play- hence PROFESSIONAL baseball, this ain't little league- the yankees are better at it because it has the biggest and most dedicated fan base in the US.

we also have johnny damon

Swamp Yankee

A New England redneck typically from Connecticut but can also be from Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusettes.

Swamp Yankees are charachterized as "salt of the earth" folk with good common sense, skilled with tools and building, clever speakers who reject modern trends, typically hunt or fish and have no problems eating squirrel or possum. They can be seen in old general stores, driving old pickup trucks, farming and wearing one piece overalls.
The term is used as an insult to those from urban areas but much like the "n" word it is used as a term of endearment and jest amongst other Swamp Yankees.

Did you see the huge tires he put on that crappy old truck....it's only Connecticut, what a swamp yankee!

Every spring old Joe the swamp yankee opens up the general store in podunk Connecticut for those wanna be hunter yuppies from the city.
