When they turn on you
...New Yorkers really turn on you.
Rudy Giuliani appears to have lost the collective faith of the state of New York, even after playing the role of savior and MAN IN CHARGE after 9/11. What caused this sudden ugly breakup?
He dared root for the hated rival Boston Red Sox in the World Series.
I can't say that I blame New Yorkers. If the Yankees had won the ALCS in 2004 and John Kerry had said he was rooting for them in the WS because they're an AL team, someone in Boston would've beat his ass. Not just said nasty things about him in the local paper...actually BEAT HIS ASS. The hatred for the ultimate rival is inviolate, and willingness to waffle on it even for an instant is sacrilege.

No shit. No Yankee fan worth his salt would ever "root" for the Sox.
But I will say this - going into last year's National Championship game, I thought, "I'll pull for the Gators because of the SEC and all that jazz." but when the Gators came out on the field, I just couldn't do it.
