I'm a Philly fan too, Krissy.  Their farm team used to be the Red Barons in Scranton.

We use to go to the Phoenix Giants minor league games, until they got the major league Diamondbacks, I guess about 10 years ago.  I'm a Yankee fan too, BTW.  Shame about Yankee stadium.

Glad they Red Sox got their butts kicked. Laughing

(Ooo, I hope Diana didn't hear that)

There's just no loyalty any more, Krissy.  I don't really watch many games, but I always enjoy the series, especially if one of "my" teams are in. 

The 2001 World Series was the only one the AZ Diamondbacks won, beating the Yankees.  So being Yankee fans, we had very mixed emotions, especially with it coming so soon after Sept. 11.

Speaking of getting chased out of the building, my poor brother was a major Dallas cowboys fan all his life and when he lived in Pennsy, he used to go down to Giants Stadium in NJ to see the Cowbows play.  He left there plenty of times with his Cowboys jersey soaked in beer.  LOL
