On the first day of school a first grade teacher explains to her class that
she is a Red Sox fan.

She asks her students to raise their hands if they, too, are Red Sox fans.

Wanting to impress their teacher, everyone in the class raises their hand
except one little girl.

The teacher looks at the girl with surprise,

"Janie, why didn't you raise your hand?" "Because I'm not a Red Sox fan,"
she replied.

The teacher, still shocked, asked, "Well, if you are not a Red Sox fan,
then who are you a fan of?"
"I am a Yankees fan, and proud of it," Janie replied.

The teacher could not believe her ears. "Janie, why pray tell are you a
Yankees fan?"

"Because my mom is a Yankees fan, and my dad is Yankees fan, so I'm a
Yankees fan too!"

"Well," said the teacher in a obviously annoyed tone, "that is no reason
for you to be a Yankees fan. You don't have to be just like your parents
all of the time. What if your mom were an idiot and your dad were a moron,
what would you be then?"

"Then," Janie smiled, "I'd be a Red Sox fan."
