The New York Yankees are a professional baseball team based in the borough of the Bronx, in New York City, New York and are a member of Major League Baseball's American League East Division. One of the American League's eight charter franchises, the club was founded in Baltimore, Maryland in 1901 as the Baltimore Orioles, and moved to New York City in 1903, becoming known as the New York Highlanders before being officially renamed the "Yankees" in 1913.3 From 1923 to 2008, the Yankees' home ballpark was Yankee Stadium, one of the world's most famous sports venues. In 2009, they moved into a new stadium, also called "Yankee Stadium"
I'm going to watch the watch the Yankees kick some ass.

An American. Period. Anyone living in the United States or claiming to be a citizen on the U.S.A.
Check out those yankees ordering light beer. Don't they know this is a brew pub?

The heart of baseball. As long as the Yankees keep winning, we know baseball isn't dead yet. Baseball is dying, and the yankees are there when we need them the most. Baseball was meant for these guys. If you're a hater, well I respect freedom of speech, but still, unless you're a Red Sox fan you're probably only jealous that they've had some of the best baseball players of all-time and 26 World Championships.
Yankees are the reason why the American League has won 17 more World Championships than the National League.

As long as the Yankees keep winning, Baseball is still alive.

Ever since they changed their franchise name/city from the Baltimore Orioles to the New York Yankees in 1903, the Yankees have done what they were meant for.

Probably the most well known and successful sports franchise in the world. They have 26 World Championships. The Yankees are what America is about.
The Yankees just killed the Red Sox again.

A baseball team that, to anyone living east of New York, sucks.
Person from NY: Go Yankees!
person from MA: Retard! Yankees suck!

A team that has something the Red Sox (and their fans) will never have....CLASS!
Yankee fans don't wear "Pee on the Red Sox" or "Red Sox Suck!" tees.

Yanks don't encourage their fans to continually act like jackasses (including gloating about the fact that they've won ONE World Series championship since 1918. Whoopee, maybe now you can play baseball with the big boys)
