Kobe Bryant has become a Yankees fan because of Curtis Schilling's blog. Asked by The Post his reaction to the Red Sox pitcher portraying him in an unflattering light for screaming at his teammates during the Lakers' 108-102 loss in Game 2 of the Finals, Bryant said, "You're asking for my response to it? Go Yankees."

I'm not a Kobe fan, I think the guy was guilty in Colorado and I also think he is an ****, but the "Go Yankees" response was great.

curt schilling is a prime example of why Blogs are part of the problem in america.

they give people who really aren't educated enough a medium for displaying their thoughts to billions of other people.

(New York Yankees) >> (Boston Red Sox)
More generally,
(City of New York) >> (Small town of Boston)

For those of you who are not well-educated (did not attend MIT, Stanford, Caltech, or other worthy school), or weakly educated (attended a weak school like Hahvahd, Northeastern, Boston College, or other random Boston school), ">>" means "much greater than".

Really now? Your Cal education failed you then since Boston isn't a town, its a city. Then again, it must be difficult for you to read since you wear those rose colored glasses that hide those pretty green eyes

and JAY, last time I checked, MIT was in Cambridge MA..

typical for the faker kobe to jump on the yanks band wagon; regardless, of what the dope schil had to say. Go yanks!!

KPKahder - Duh !!
Everyone knows that. Where did I say that MIT was not in Cambridge ?
Hahvahd is in Cambridge, too, in case you forgot. But both MIT and Hahvahd have portions of their schools in Boston, if you want to get nitty-gritty and pick hairs about it.
Boston is too small and inferior to be considered a real city, even if the official designation says it is. :)
