The same thing was true of the Yankees a few years ago. I didn't hate the team, but their fans were freakin' annoying. I enjoyed watching the Red Sox beating the sh it out of them in the ALCS just because I knew that all of the Yankees fans would be dumbfounded that such a thing had happened.
I can relate.

I was living in NYC in '04. I'm a Dodger fan and an NL guy all the way so I didn't give a crap about the Sox or the Yanks, but living in New York when they blew that 3-0 series lead was wonderful. I fully enjoyed every single minute of the pain and humiliation all of the fans around me seemed to be experiencing.

Hey, don't be so hard on New York.

New Yorkers have David Patterson as Governor, Hillary Clinton as US Senator, and the fine workings of the NYRA for the betterment of horse racing.

Fuggetaboutit.
