Walt, in the interest of truth, you have a slight error in your note.
The Nuns have champeenship banners hanging at the AWA. The have a 1976
Western Conference Champions banner and a 1982(?) Pacific Division
Champions banner proudly displayed. They are quite proud of these
titles, and keep them right next to where Kyle Macy's # is retired.

| I didn't see Sister Act. I was offended that the term "Sister" was
applied to people in that convent other than Whoopi Goldberg (who's
name in itself would normally not be construed to be that of someone
looking to be a nun). It seemed to me from the commercials that those
people had no real institinctive rhythm, and hence, may not qualify for
the term "Sister"...

The Division banner is from '81 and Macy's number isn't retired. Only
retired numbers there are Van Arsdale, Hawkins, Westphal, and Adams.

So if Twisted Sister started singing about Nuns could they be

4) Must be some kind of intervention to support the "KJ is the best

If it means "I realize my team isn't ready to win the NBA and I wish

Thing is, Spud, the Cubs are joked about but they're not really rapped
like the Red Sox. They're the lovable losers. The White Sox would no
doubt have welcomed that kind of attention over the years, not disdained
it. They could have used all the help they could get when year after
the year the incompetent Cubs were whupping them at the box office,
regardless of the quality of the teams...

It may come from the neighborhood you're from.
The Yanks were in the Bronx, the Dogders in Brooklyn, the Giants were
in Manhattan I believe.
I've never met anyone from Brooklyn who likes the Yanks, unless it was
a deal where they hated their father and rooted for the Yanks to piss
him off (I know one guy like that).
My dad was an interesting case. He's ALWAYS been a Sox fan, but he had
more than a passing interest in the Braves, since Hartford had a Braves

Red Sox (parents from the Boston area), and hated the Yankees as

In the mid to late 70's, the Mets sucked (possibly as much if not
more than they will this year), and the Red Sox were getting beat
by the Yanks. Steinbrenner was also a jerk. It was easy to hate
them.
It didn't carry over into other sports. I'm a rabid Giant fan, but
