Yankee Suck!!! This has been the chant at games played between the Yankees and the Red Sox for almost one hundred years.In recent years, tee shirts bearing these words have been banned at all events. They are not allowed at any games played between the two teams. Red Sox fans have harbored resentment toward the Yankees since Babe Ruth was traded. Vendors have replaced the famous slogan with a less offensive one.

The new slogans such as “Evil Empure” are not specific to the Yankees, and therefore is an acceptable slogan.There are some members of the Yankees that have suffered at the hands of Red Sox fans; there are others on different teams that have suffered as much if not more.

Johnny Damon, who is considered by all Red Sox fans to be a traitor, has become the tee shirt vendor moneymaking dream.
There are some fans that believe that tee shirts depicting the entire team will last longer than targeting one player. Using the “Yankees Suck” phrase as a prime example. This phrase has lasted almost a hundred years. Can anyone remember a tee shirt about a player? Some feel that the chant is getting too old because it is not only shouted at baseball games, but at any game involving New England players.
