Since baseball season is upon us, and so many of you aren't Yankee fans, I've set this thread up as a place where you can discuss your feelings of jealousy and inferiority. Hopefully this will save you thousands of dollars in counseling and help you resolve these issues constructively.

No need to thank me. I'm your helper. I'm your friend.

Go Expos!

Sorry, we're going to need to start another thread to deal with this issue.

bench is the only poster on here with psychiatric training, but he's hardly ever on here. So I'll suck it up and deal with it. But thanks for asking.

One WS title in 11 years, all while outspending thier opponents 4-5X?

What's to be jealous about?

Thanks for replying, but as everyone knows, admitting your issue is the first step to resolving it.

Is there something else you want to say? I'm your helper. I'm your friend.

I'm pretty certain this is at least one other poster on this forum that is in the mental health profession for a living...with a masters and what not....

I was referring to the "Dear Dr. Bench" threads that appeared a year or two ago (AGS and/or here). I played a celebrity patient or two, and he played the shrink. He could be a janitor for all I know.

Yes, there is. I don't feel inferior. Nor am I jealous. Since my birth I have been a fan of the Los Angeles Dodgers & (since 1998) the Arizona Diamondbacks. In my 50 years on this earth my team(s) have exactly ONE less WS title than your Yankmees....while spending billions of dollars less. I'm fine with that.

Well, my second favorite teams is the Dodgers too, so in my 50 years on this earth, my team(s) have 12 World Series titles, while your team(s) have won only 5. And I don't care how much they did or didn't spend, because it's not my money

Besides, your math is wrong. In our lifetimes the Dodgers have won 4 WS titles (1963, 1965, 1981, and 1988) and the Dbacks have won one*. So that's five*.

In our lifetimes, the Yankees have won 8 world series (1962, 1977, 1978, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000, and 2009). So the Yankees have won 3 more than your two favorite teams combined.

O, and I'm still your helper. I'm your friend.

Edited for accuracy. And I wasn't aware we get to count our second favorite teams' titles.

OK, Einstein. I'm not a Dodgers fan any more. I WAS, up until 1998, as I didn't live in an area that had a professional team. So, for 36 years I was a Dodgers fan. And during that time they won 4 WS titles. Is that too difficult to comprehend?

Yea, yea, I understand. How "convenient" that you dumped them once they went into a prolonged decline.

My team(s) have won 13 world series titles in my lifetime.

And the Yankees' titles in 1996, 1998, 1999 were clean. Maybe you could argue about 2000, because that's apparently when Clemens went on the juice for the first time as a Yankee, as per the Mitchell Report.

He lives in AZ, and the only team I know of out there is the Dbacks.

When did AZ get a major league team?

Going to see Reggie Jackson on Saturday, got a nice Oakland A's piece I might get signed. Bob Gibson who took care of the Yankees in 1964 and the Red Sox in 1967 will also be there.

And for how long have you had these feelings of rage and anger?

Not sure, but it can probably be measured in decades.
