It’s Phillies vs. Yankees – even at Lynn

by Debbie | October 29, 2009

For those of you living under a rock – or who maybe just don’t care – the World Series has begun. It’s the battle of the Phillies vs. the Yankees, a big Northeastern rivalry (score one for the Phillies).

I saw these 2 students walking together in the Assaf courtyard today, each sporting his team hat. Mike Deluca (Philly fan) and Matt Dumoulin (Yankee fan) are buddies and neighbors and have a friendly rivalry, but draw the line when it comes to watching the games. Both go off to watch with their fellow fans and say they don’t care where they watch as long as there’s a big screen TV.

Fans and even non-fans seem to have a love/hate relationship with one or both of these teams. So, I’ll admit my team preference here and say: Go Phillies! Can they do it a second year in a row? What do you think? I’ve gotten several high fives from fellow Philly fans here at Lynn. So, come on … fess up, who are you rooting for?
