BTW - it is absolutely true that Portland, Oregon, was almost named Boston. Believe it or not, the name was decided by a coin flip. I think if the NFL conducted that coin flip, Portland probably would be named Boston because "Portland" was called out. |
If the World Series were played in May Boston would have won every one of them....
Who knows.... The Patriots won, the Sox could be next... |

I got this from my best friend, who is also from New England:
A first grade teacher explains to her class that she is a Yankees fan. She asks her students to raise their hands if they, too, are Yankees fans. Everyone in the class raises his hand except one little girl. The teacher looks at the girl and says, "Janie, why didn't you raise your hand?" "Because I am a Red Sox fan, and proud of it," Janie replied. The teacher could not believe her ears. "Janie, why, pray tell, are you a Red Sox fan?" "Because my mom is a Red Sox fan, and my dad is a Red Sox fan, so I'm a Red Sox fan too!" "Well," said the teacher in an obviously annoyed tone, "That is no reason for you to be a Red Sox fan. You don't have to be just like your parents all the time. What if your mom were a moron and your dad were a moron?" "Then," Janie smiled, "I'd be a Yankees fan." |
:D

Two boys are playing hockey on a pond on Boston Common when one is attacked by a vicious Rottweiler. Thinking quickly, the other boy took his hockey stick and managed to wedge it down the dog's collar and twist, luckily breaking the dog's neck and stopping its attack.
A reporter who was strolling by sees the incident, and rushes over to interview the boy. "Young Bruins Fan Saves Friend from Vicious animal....", he starts writing in his notebook. "But I'm not a Bruins fan," the little hero replied. "Sorry, since we're in Boston, I just assumed you were," said the reporter and starts again. "Red Sox Fan Rescues Friend from Horrific Attack,..." he continued writing in his notebook. "I'm not a Red? Sox fan either!", the boy said. "I assumed everyone in Boston was either for the Bruins or the Red Sox. So what team DO you root for?", the reporter asked. "I'm a Yankees fan!", the child beamed. The reporter starts a new sheet in his notebook and writes, "Little Bast>>d from New York Kills Beloved Family Pet." |
Yup,liked that one too!

Two guys are at Fenway watching the Red Sox. One has his dog with him.
One of the Sox gets a base hit. The dog jumps up and down. Later, one of the Sox hits a home run. The dog starts doing flips. The Sox win the game. The dog jumps in the air, comes down on his hind legs and walks the length of the bleachers. The other guy turns to the dog owner and says, "That's absolutely amazing. But what does he do if they win the World Series?" The dog owner replies, "I don't know. I've only had him for 120 years." |
Here's one from a Mariners fan - since we can't beat them either, I will join in on the Yankees jokes...
A young teacher was hired at an elementary school in a wealthy suburb of Boston. Trying to get to know her little 1st grade students a little better, she had them each stand up and tell what their parents did for a living. All the kids were doing a fine job, until she got to little Johnny who stood with his head bowed and said: "My name is Johnny. My dad is a cross-dressing, transvestite prostitute, and my mom is an exotic dancer at a strip club." Little Johnny then sat back down. Not knowing what else to do, the teacher continued around the room. Just as they finished this exercise, the bell rang for recess. She decided she needed to talk to Johnny, so she had him stay behind... "I'm sorry if I embarrassed you, Johnny," she began... "Oh no, teacher. I wasn't embarrassed. See, my dad is really a retired Yankees player, and my mom worked as a secretary for the team. Now if I had to tell the class that - well then I would have been embarrassed." |
