Truth is I don't root for any professional sports team.
Still, I like jibber jabbering with folks that enjoy their fandom. I like being completely honest in assessing their teams and even enjoy watching them defend that team's weaknesses.
In the space of one week, I got sent a joke about the Yankees from a Mets fan and joke about the Yankees from a Mets fan.
It made me think of the Dobies-Greenberg partnership
Anyway, I thought I'd share the jokes and if you've heard them before,apologies.
I had heard one of them, but in a different context....
Mets Joke-
A Mets fan liked to amuse himself by scaring every Yankees fan he saw strutting down the street in an obnoxious NY pinstripe shirt. He would swerve his van as if to hit them, then swerve back just missing them.
One day while driving along, he saw a priest. He thought he would do a good deed, so he pulled over and asked the priest, "Where are you going, Father?"
"I'm going to give Mass at St. Francis church, about two miles down the road," replied the priest.
"Climb in, Father. I'll give you a lift!" The priest climbed into the passenger seat, and they continued down the road.
Suddenly, the driver saw a Yankees fan walking down the road, and he instinctively swerved as if to hit him. But, as usual, he swerved back onto the road just in time.
Even though he was certain that he had missed the guy, he still heard a loud THUD. not knowing where the noise came from, he glanced in his mirrors but still didn't see anything.
He then remembered the priest, and he turned to the priest and said, "sorry Father, I almost hit that Yankees fan."
"That's OK," replied the priest "I got him with the door."
Yankees Joke-
There were two men, one was a Mets fan and the other was a Yankees fan.
These men were both madly in love with the same woman. So the woman challenged that whichever man does a better job at having sex with her would be her boyfriend.
Both men accepted the challenge.
That night, the woman had sex with the Mets fan and then the other night had sex with the Yankees fan. The next day the woman chose the Yankees fan to be her boyfriend.
Shocked and outraged, the Mets fan asked why she didn't choose him.
She replied by saying, "You, like your team not only come up short but always finish early!"
If you have a favorite joke, share here with all of us....
