	It makes no sense that Mets fans hate the Yankees. Your from the same city. I am a Yankees fan and I actually like seeing the Mets win (as long as it is not against the yankees.) I know everyone always hates the best team = Yankees, but come on you should hate your division rival. stupid Red Sox... I agree. The Mets and Yankees play each other 6 times a year (which IMO is 6 times too many), if I were a Met fan I'd focus more on the Braves and the Phillies, who are more of an imediate threat.

	Like i stated in my first response to this poll, i hve no problem with the Yankees and root for them to win when they aren't playing the Mets. And for the record the only NY team i despise are the NY Islanders.

	It's not living in the past, it's talking about the past. Do you realize what we're talking about? The relavence and importance of the Braves streak. Hence, I'm talking about the past. Genius.

	That's great, look at what the Yankees have done. The Yankees have been Major League Baseball's most successful franchise with 26 World Series championships and 39 American League Pennants. They are also the most successful franchise in professional sports history, passing the Montreal Canadiens' 24 titles in 1999. You don't see eveyone brining that up trying to save face. Braves are no longer goo, get over it.

	I hate to say it being a die hard NY fan, but the Boston Celtics 8 straight NBA Championships and 10 in 11 years dwarfs the Braves 14 straight NL division titles. And let's be real about one thing. The Braves won the NL West in 1991, 1992, and 1993. In 1994 they finished the season in second place to the Expos in the NL East. They won the NL East from 1995-2005. I don't know why 1994 isn't considered, but it might be because it was not a complete 162 game season. But in any case, they didn't end that year in first in their division. That being said, 10 World Championships in 11 years is a much more impressive team feat than 14 division championships in 14 or 15 years. Not to take anything away from the Braves achievement itself, but it just ain't the most impressive thing a team ever did over a 14/15 year period even if the Celtics ended up dead last the other 3/4 years. Just IMHO.

	I don't get the hate for the Yankees either. If Philly still had the A's, I garauntee you I'd be going to see both clubs play and praying they both make the Series. Not only are we not 1st, we've been praised!! This is unacceptable. Clearly we as Phillies fans are not doing our jobs. Nor the Braves for that matter. Jerks! Morons! New Yorkers! Argh!!!! Boooooo Mets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!* stugots

	It has to be the Yankees. The Mets were an insignificant blip on the schedule when the Braves had their run so it's not like their was a rivalry worth noting those years. The Phillies have been bad for so long that they are impossible to have hatred for except for the fact that they are from that S-Hole known as Philly. It proves how pathetic the NL East has been over the years when the biggest market team in the divisions most hated rival is in another league.
