  According to the MLB's official site these are the Top 10 reasons why it's better to be a fan of the.  Red Sox:  Yankees:  10.  The Green Monster 10.  American League Pennants:
 NYY 39,  BOS 10 9.  Kenmore Square vs.  the Bronx, 'nuff said 9.  World Series titles:
 NYY 26,  BOS 5 8.  Seats that aren't 10 miles from the field 8.  Last Division Title:  NYY 2003,  BOS 1995 7.
 Two words:  No- mah's Bet- tah 7.  Lifetime Series:  NYY 1047 wins,
 BOS 854 6.  The Sox don't need A- Rod to score runs 6.  Season series titles since 2000:  NYY 4,  BOS 0 5.
 Epstein's younger ( and cooler)  than Cashman 5.  A- Rod plays for:  New York 4.
 Cy Youngs:  Pedro 4,  Mussina 0 4.  Babe Ruth 3.  Batting titles since 1999:  Bos 4,
 NY 0 3.  Bucky Dent 2.  Teddy Ballgame 2.  Aaron Boone 1.  The chowder's better in Boston 1.  1918 This is probably the most horrible list ever composed.
nbsp;  How can you go ahead and make a mockery of Ted Williams like that by putting chowder as the number one reason why Boston is better than NY. nbsp;  And although most of the people alive in this day and age don't know much about history,  there were& nbsp;
two guys by the names of Carl Yastrzemski and Cy Young that played some time for the BoSox that I heard weren't too bad either. nbsp;  How the hell can you put down Babe Ruth and completely forget about Yaz and Cy! nbsp;  Now I know you are all going to say,  but when Ruth was traded that's when everything changed,
 no shit,  that's why they have 1918 there. nbsp;  This poll had to be compiled by either a& nbsp; 35 year&
nbsp; single guy& nbsp; who listens to too much Joe Buck and& nbsp; Tim McCarver (
who both suck by the way,  good job Deion in hosing McCarver)  or was an actual poll passed around elementry schools in the NY and Boston areas. nbsp;  & nbsp;
 The Yankees side I can't argue too much about,  but I would like to know how Aaron Boone made it up there. nbsp;  He sucked all year long,  had one big hit,  and instantly he is changed from goat to god.
I don't think so. nbsp;  Somehow I don't understand how Boone can be put up higher than Ruth. nbsp;  Was this list the best reaons to be a Yankee fan in the past 6 months? nbsp;
 No,  it wasn't. nbsp;  Perhaps I missed the memo that all MLB polls should be crap,  that is the only possible explanation. nbsp;
 So go New England Clam Chowder. Boston's best attribute.
