I have to admit I have never really understood the concept of making fun of someone else, or the fans of another team. It sounds as though you find it rewarding? I've always found it easier to respect fans of other teams, especially the fans of teams like the Red Sox, and even the Cubs.
Aw, I would say don't take it so seriously, the Yankees-Red Sox rivalry is fun for all involved. This comes from a 3rd generation (at least!) Yankees fan who has been dating a lifelong Red Sox fan- we look forward to these October matchups-- without this series, October is boring.
