oh yeah,, when they weren't dominant, you mean when the reign began........anyway, thats understandable, when you think of baseball you think of the yankees first unless your a really big fan of the sport. plus you live in NYC, so theres no problem, with me the people that annoy me are the ones from other places that know absolutley nothing about baseball but still rub it in your face win the world series (so, who was the yanks all-star first baseman again? ummm, WE WON!)

Well, no I'm not biased toward my team. I support them simply because I do not like the Mets as much as the Yankees. I do not "hate" any other team, not even the Angels, Marlins, or Diamondbacks. I do not spit in the faces of fans of other teams. I am not George Steinbrenner, so it's not like I can control his decisions. I'll support what he does, whether good or bad. I was rather annoyed how easily he was able to pick up A-Rod, but we'll leave that to another topic. This topic is for naming your favorite team, and I apologize for going off-topic in this thread.

I began watching baseball as a whole in 1994, when I still did not speak English very well, and I decided to stick with one New York team. At that time, I still had not heard of the history of the Yankees and how legendary the team and stadium actually are. Then 2 years later, they won the World Series, and I was shocked beyond belief.

So please trust me when I say this, that I liked the Yankees from the moment that I began to like baseball in early 1994, when the Yankees were not really as dominant and imposing as they are now, and don't call me "not a real fan", just because I live in NYC and am a Yankee fan. It is still possible to be a Yankee fan and be a real fan of baseball. Not like I can switch to another team, at least until I move to another city, as then I'd be called a traitor. I will support the Yankees for the rest of my life. I'm sure sometime in my lifetime they will suck again. They can't be dominant forever. I will support them still.

LA Dodgers...always have been, always will be. Even though there is not all that much to be happy about the last few years. I mean. come on. last year we have a miniscule ERA that should have won us the championship, but we averaged 3 and a half runs a game!!!! I think the Red Sox averaged 3 and a half runs an inning. And so looking for a big bat in the off-season we aquire the super-fantabulistic Juan Encarcion to help our offense. But I look at the bright side and think well at least he can strike out in batting practice and help boost the confidence of the batting practice pitcher...

yikes...

I thought about doubling down with White Sox and Cards. My dad is from the Springfield/St. Louis area so he's a big Cardinal fan. Too bad theres only one White Sox fan. :/

    • This Gigabyte AMD RX 9070 XT is very good deal despite the launch of 9070 GRE

      This Gigabyte AMD RX 9070 XT is very good deal despite the launch of 9070 GRE by Sayan Sen Recently we reviewed AMD's latest 1440p gaming card, the Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12GB, for $549. The card is in stock too at that price, though if you want significantly better performance and don't mind spending a bit more, the Gigabyte Gaming model of RX 9070 XT is currently on sale for just $650 (purchase link under the specs table down below). The card employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The technical specifications of the Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT GAMING OC 16G are given in the table below: Specification Value Core Clock Boost Clock: up to 3060 MHz Game Clock: up to 2520 MHz Stream Processors 4096 Memory Clock 20 Gbps Memory Size 16GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Bus 256-bit Card Bus Interface PCI Express 5.0 Maximum Resolution 7680 × 4320 Multi-View Support 4 displays Card Dimensions L=288 mm, W=132 mm, H=56 mm Recommended Power Supply 750W Power Connectors 3 × 8-pin Video Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16GB Graphics Card, GV-R9070XTGAMING OC: $649.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $740) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

      They used AI based TOOLS to convert the JavaScript engine (the main rendering engine is still C++) and it was not fully automated but was human reviewed. Other subsystems will be looked into to also be converted to Rust in the future. I have no problem with any of that.

      Why not just bring back Outlook Express at this point? It did everything I needed as a home email app.

      No we just do it manually, our contact methods are calls, chats and e-mails. Whoever is doing the e-mail task for the day, deals with the e-mail, logs the appropriate ticket, adds the reference to the source e-mail and then files it in the appropriate folder. At least that's how it's supposed to work
