I grew up an Indians fan my entire life. I was never really 'against' the Yankees, but I knew what they were capable of.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As a player, to me the Dodgers were the Yankees of the National League because... you either loved them or you hated them.
Even though I was never a Yankee fan until I put on the uniform, when you think about the deep history of this organization, you always knew what the Yankees represented.
People grow up loving the Yankees and will tell you, and so many people despise the Yankees, and they come from all over the United States.
I am a Yankees fan. I should say - have been to more Yankees games than Mets games.
Everybody says we hated the Yankees. We didn't hate the Yankees. We just hated the way they beat us.
I love baseball. As a teenager, I was a contrarian and picked the underdog instead of just rooting for the Yankees. It's a hard team to root for, but there's something that always keeps me hopeful.
Let me tell you something: I love the Yankees. And let me tell you why: because without the Yankees, there is nobody to hate.
I love baseball and love the Indians and all the teams here.
I've been a Yankees fan since I was six.
I've been a Yankees fan for a long time. When I was a kid in the mid-'70s, the Yankees were really great. They had Reggie Jackson in '77. I was 8 years old at the time. He hit three home runs to win the World Series in game six against the Dodgers, and I was just hooked.
