Dude, you are obsessed. These quotes are from the Playoffs thread:

> [@Major League Baseball: The 2010 Playoffs](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/major-league-baseball-the-2010-playoffs/556197/548):
>
> I also despise Yankee fans for their “true-Yankee” bullshit. A-Rod is so clearly a superior player (and with laughable obviousness, a superior defensive shortstop) to your precious Jeter…

> [@Major League Baseball: The 2010 Playoffs](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/major-league-baseball-the-2010-playoffs/556197/546):
>
> …But whoever I root for, I always will despise the Yankees, and their smug, self-satsified fans…

> [@Major League Baseball: The 2010 Playoffs](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/major-league-baseball-the-2010-playoffs/556197/472):
>
> …I do hate the Yankees, with force and vigor and delight, but I think I hate condescending front-runner know-it-alls worse…

> Everybody takes pleasure in something. I take pleasure in the Yankees losing, the Yankees suffering, the Yankees’ plane crashing into the side of a mountain. But mainly I enjoying discoursing with Yankees’ fans on the days following such events. There’s nothing quite like listening to smug, self-satisfied blowhards being forced to admit that, even with more more money than God, their team is not destined to win every single year. That’s just the sweetest thing…

Face it, you started the Jeter thread to roll Yankee fans. You weren’t debating whether or not Jeter should get a raise or a paycut. Instead, you were lying in wait for Yankee fans to say something positive about him so you could sneer and express your disdain for all things Yankee.
