new yorkers chosing teams

[JQK]

Is any Newyorker here with some grandparents that used to root for the NL's NY Giants or Brooklyn Dodgers?

If yes, I'd like to read some histories. Thanks

My Mother and Grandmother were Dodger fans. My grandfather was a Yankee fan.

They had many a discussion about World Series, which in the 50's was almost always Yankees-Dodgers

When the Dodgers moved, my mom stopped watching baseball. She still holds a grudge and ill-will twords O'Mally and the Dodgers for moving. Most anyone who was a Dodger fan still does. People say Boston is a baseball town. And it is.

But Brooklyn was THE baseball town.

The treachery of that move will never be forgotten.
