The starting pitching worries me. Vazquez and Brown have done the job, but Mussina hasn't and Contreras and Osbourne have sucked.
Lieber is still a question mark.

I wish this guy was still around...

[Bob_R]

Yeah, and this guy.

[POJO_Risin]

So what's the deal with the Yanks...they are more or less sleepwalking to first place...

what's going to happen when ALL the bats wake up...and they will...

and who wants to bet that the Yanks sign fucking RJ...or another big name pitcher...

or worse...2 starters...

rumors already have Contreras and a prospect to the Yanks for Armas Jr....can't see that...but wow...Armas is going to be a stud...

[Bob_R]

Heard a rumor yesterday: Garciaparra wants out of Boston. The Yanks will get him and make him a 2nd basemen. :)

[POJO_Risin]

Nomar should want out after they virtually told him they didn't want him while they were shoppin' for ARod...

he won't end up in New York though...I still think Anaheim would be a good fit...and I think he has a house out there with his soccer trolip...

[Igosplut]

Garciaparra and Pedro are both gone after this year. both have broken off contract talks and are looking elsewhere......

I would agree that Normar probably wont end up in NY, I dont think they'd want him anyway. Pedro though is another story....

[POJO_Risin]

I don't think Pedro is good enough to even to have NY look at him...he's a great pitcher right now...but is a pussy...and skills are going...going...not gone yet...but soon will be...

Nomar will end up in Anaheim...not this year though...

[Bob_R]

They still possess the best record in baseball.

ARod 19 dingers so far.

Rivera 0.93 ERA. Simply awesome.

[POJO_Risin]

Yes they do...and it's amazing because they are clicking on about half cylinders...

They looked damn shitty yesterday though...

[wraytw]

Contreras pitched awesome today. I think now that his family is here, we are going to see the Jose Contreras that NY paid for.

[POJO_Risin]

We'll see...he's pitched like this before...and imploded a game or two later...

once he starts worrying about his wife finding out about all his bitches...it's back to the beginning for the Cuban...;)

[Bob_R]

Yeah, that's scary!

[POJO_Risin]

They're in that mode that they're always in...the relax mode until the playoffs...

problem with that...complacency...is that when you get an upstart in there...like the Marlins and the Angels...they play the season with all 8 cylinders clicking...and don't have to turn it up...

The Yanks need some young blood in there that haven't tasted it...

[wraytw]

I think A-Rod will go just fucking nuts in the playoffs. He could smell a championship as soon as he put on the pinstripes, he's not going to let it get away.

[POJO_Risin]

He's been in the playoffs before...I agree with you...but the Yanks have always played like a team...won and lost as a team...they'll need more than Arod...

that being said...I think their next coupla deals will be big...but they better ask Torre...

[Bob_R]

Since April 25th the Yankees are 39-11, the Red Sox 30-26.

[Bob_R]

It's early in the season but the Yankees begin a three game series with the Red Sox tonight. A sweep by the Yanks and they can wave bye bye to the Red Sox.

Giambi diagnosed with parasites, out of lineup vs. Red Sox

By RONALD BLUM, AP Sports Writer

June 29, 2004


NEW YORK (AP) -- Ailing Yankees first baseman Jason Giambi was diagnosed with parasites and was pulled from the starting lineup Tuesday night in the opener of New York's three-game series against the Boston Red Sox.

When asked specifically what the doctor told him, Giambi said he didn't remember.

``I don't have a Ph.D. and I'm not world renowned,'' Giambi said.

The former AL MVP said he'd been feeling exhausted for about three weeks. He began taking a new set of antibiotics Tuesday and said a doctor told him he should feel better within a couple of days.

``There should be no reason for being this exhausted. I'm 33, not 50,'' Giambi said. ``It kind of makes you understand why you're getting jammed by guys throwing 88 miles an hour.''

Giambi has one hit in his last 14 at-bats and is in a 13-for-65 rut. He hasn't homered since hitting his 11th of the season on June 6, and his average has dropped from .271 on June 7 to .237.

``This sort of explains it to be more than a slump,'' Yankees manager Joe Torre said. ``He still looks a little washed out.''

Giambi wasn't surprised Yankees owner George Steinbrenner had recently criticized him a bit.

``In some cases, he was right,'' Giambi said. ``I wasn't feeling real good and I was hurting the team.''

Torre also wasn't startled by Steinbrenner's statements.

``When the owner got on (Hideki) Matsui last year, I think we all realized we're all vulnerable,'' Torre said.

On Sunday, Giambi looked so bad when he got to Yankee Stadium that Torre sent him to a hospital. Giambi, who looked glassy-eyed, took two bottles of intravenous fluids and did not play during the Yankees' day-night doubleheader sweep of the New York Mets.

Giambi started feeling ill a couple of weeks ago when he caught a stomach virus from teammate Gary Sheffield.

Torre originally had Giambi batting seventh Tuesday night. He was replaced at first base by Tony Clark, who hit eighth. Torre moved center fielder Kenny Lofton from ninth to leadoff, and dropped designated hitter Bernie Williamsfrom first to sixth and catcher Jorge Posada one notch to seventh.

Notes

RHP Kevin Brown, recovering from a back spasm that forced him out of a start June 9, threw 62 pitches in his third bullpen session. His return was delayed after an unsatisfactory bullpen outing Sunday night. ``Better than the last time,'' pitching coach Mel Stottlemyre said. Brown is to throw again in the bullpen on Thursday before the Yankees decide whether he needs a rehabilitation start in the minors or can rejoin the rotation. ``When we get to the point where he has a couple of good bullpens, he can convince me of anything,'' Torre said. ... RHP Jon Lieber has felt weakness in the shoulder, but Torre isn't overly concerned. Lieber missed all of last year following an elbow operation, and Torre attributes the weakness to the layoff. ``Probably he's not all the way back yet from the surgery,'' the manager said. ... RHP Mike Mussina is to start Friday's opener of a three-game series at the Mets, and he'll be followed by RHP Jose Contreras and RHP Javier Vazquez. ... Sheffield did not have a second cortisone shot in his right shoulder, which hasbursitis, and was in the lineup in right field.

Isn't WORMS parasites? You get them from walking around barefoot on ground or carpet animals have messed on, eating uncooked pork, or drinking contaminated water.

Cooties or Lice are also parasites...

As well as Crabs...

Fuck you, Boston.

Now head home with your dicks in your hands.

Man that game f'in rocked.

[Bob_R]

Well the Yanks are 55-31 heading into the break. They're an astonishing 33-12 at home. They actually started at slow this year. I think the Japan trip took more out of them than originally thought.

There's talk here in the local papers that they'll make a push for Randy Johnson before the trade deadline July 31st.

We'll soon see.

[POJO_Risin]

Well...it looks like Anaheim may be out because freakin' Randy is looking for an extension on his 8 Billion dollar contract...

my guess is the Yanks are the only team that can afford him...

Yankee's #1--I've got no problem with you, but that's what a chick would say!

[Bob_R]

Yanks 2 1/2 games behind the Cards for the best record in baseball. I know it doesn't matter if they meet in the WS because the AL won the All-Star game. Which is a stupid way to decide home advantage but we've been through this already. :D

The Yanks do have the best home record.

[POJO_Risin]

It's just interesting...NY is doing it this year...that's for sure...

but jesus...have they been healthy all year?

what if they were healthy? They are a good squad...

you're right. next time i'll baffle you with my brilliance.

[Bob_R]

The Yankees are on a losing streak right now. Better now than later though.

But, I tell you this much if their hitting and pitching falter at the same time in the playoffs like it is now they're doomed.

They're such an offensive juggnaut that if they are on they can get by with their soft pitching. Just get the lead and give the ball to Mariano.

[POJO_Risin]

They can be an offensive juggernaut...problem is...not once have they been on the same page...at the same time...

[Bob_R]

Can't wait for the Yanks to get back home. They've been on the road alot lately. Maybe the home cooking will get them back on track.

[POJO_Risin]

It will take more than home cookin'...

they need pitching...

and Arod to pull his head out of his ass...

Soriano was far more valuable to this team last year than ARod is to this team this year...

[POJO_Risin]

The playoffs are going to be interesting...because let's face it...record or not...the Yanks are not the same team...

and they've got nothing comin' up...

Now you Yank fans can just say we'll buy another team...

but fact of the matter is this...the ONLY good Yankee teams...are the teams that have homegrown talent supported by superstars...

It will be years before the Yanks win another series...

[Bob_R]

Oh I agree Pojo. The Yanks aren't the dominant team that they were in the mid-late nineties. It's not going to be easy. If their pitching gets on a roll and their hitting is on though they'll be tough. Get the lead and give the ball to Mariano (two innings in the playoffs).

Conversely, if they hit a dry spell. Especially pitching wise they'll be doomed.

BTW, where the fuck is my vote! :D :) ;)

[Igosplut]

I think things are gonna get worse for the pitching....

NEW YORK (AP) -- Kevin Brown might have punched himself out of the pennant race, and the New York Yankees are angry about it.

Brown broke his non-pitching hand when he punched a wall in the clubhouse Friday night during New York's 3-1 loss to the Baltimore Orioles.

``You just can't do this, there's no doubt about it. You've got to keep your emotions in check,'' Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said. ``It's a major issue that we shouldn't be dealing with. It's a problem.''

Especially at this point in the year. The loss cut New York's AL East lead to just 2 1/2 games over the Red Sox, its smallest margin since before games of June 12. The Yankees led by a season-high 10 1/2 games on Aug. 15.

Now they might be without one of their best pitchers down the stretch. Frustrated by an injury-filled season, Brown's hot temper could cost the Yankees at the most important time.

``Stupidity,'' he said, choosing his words carefully.

``I reacted to frustration I'd swallowed all year. ... There are no excuses. I let it boil over and I did something stupid. I owe my teammates an apology for letting my emotions take over like that.''

Already short on starting pitching, the Yankees were unsure how long the 39-year-old right-hander might be out. He was to be examined by a hand specialist Saturday.

``My plan is to splint it and pitch. I just pray that my stupidity didn't hurt the team,'' he said.

Acquired from Los Angeles last offseason, the oft-injured Brown (10-4) missed seven weeks in June and July with a strained lower back and intestinal parasite. He tweaked his knee while covering first base on an awkward play in the fifth inning Friday, then was hit on the right forearm by Miguel Tejada's RBI single in the sixth.

Steamed by it all, he walked around the clubhouse in the middle of the sixth and punched a wall, breaking two bones in his left hand.

That was the end of his night.

After the game, Cashman and Yankees manger Joe Torre were visibly annoyed. All-Star catcher Jorge Posada refused to answer questions about Brown's injury.

Cashman said Brown could be disciplined or fined. Torre said he spoke to Brown and expressed his disappointment.

``Certainly uncalled for and unnecessary,'' Torre said. ``There's more to this game than one person. We rely on him a great deal. It's not something that's helping the team, obviously.''

After the game, the Yankees began reviewing Brown's contract to determine whether a self-inflicted injury could void the guarantee language, one baseball official said on the condition of anonymity. No determination had been made, the official said.

Brown is earning $15 million this year and is due $15 million in 2005, the final season of his $105 million, seven-year deal.

[POJO_Risin]

And that typifies what happens when you get away from Torre making decisions on players...and have Steiney at the helm...

The Yanks are fucking toast...no way they have the staff WITH Brown in the lineup...

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO...that last statement shows you where the Yanks are...

gazing at contracts...looking for a way to fucking void them...

Shitty management...when it's all said and done.

and it's always been. The only good thing that Steinbrenner did was hire Torre...and give him some control...once that ended...so did the Yankee reign...

let's not forget...the only time the Yankees were good under Torre are the first couple of years when he bought them...because he didn't have time to deal away all his young guys...

and in 1996 on...after he gave Torre some creedance...and they had some good youngsters...

[Bob_R]

Wow, the Yanks lost again. :( They're slumping big time.

Pojo where the fuck's my vote! :D :) :p

[POJO_Risin]

Dude...they didn't lose...they got the shit kicked out of them again...

fucking 2-hit...

but the Sox are losing too...

Yanks are done...

What vote are you talking about here Fanatic....

[Igosplut]

Sox almost rebounded....

I hope they can keep it up...

[Igosplut]

More good news for the Yankees....

BRONX, New York (Ticker) -New York Yankees righthander Kevin Brown underwent surgery Sunday for a broken left hand and is expected to miss at least three weeks and perhaps the rest of the season.

Brown broke his non-pitching hand when he punched a wall after Friday night's loss to Baltimore.

The surgery was performed by hand specialist Dr. Melvin Rosenwasser and Yankees team physician Dr. Stuart Hershon at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital. Pins were inserted in Brown's fractured fifth metacarpal bone and third metacarpal bone.

"Three weeks, that is the optimistic scenario," Yankees manager Joe Torre said. "The worst case is that he won't be able to pitch for us the rest of the year."

The injury could not have come at a worse time for the Yankees, who lead Boston by just 2 1/2 games in the American League East.

Brown had allowed three runs and five hits in six innings Friday. He apparently was upset about a smash that went off his arm and hurting his knee on a groundout.

The 18-year veteran, who is making $15.7 million this season, has battled injuries throughout his first season in New York.

"Stupidity," Brown said. "I reacted to the frustration I swallowed all year. I did a good job of controlling it until this point. There are no excuses. I let the frustration boil over."

Brown's bosses were not happy with the incident, which leaves the team's already shaky rotation with yet another question mark.

"It's a major injury that we shouldn't have to be dealing with, but we are," Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said. "You just can't do that. There are no excuses."

Brown is 10-4 with a 3.99 ERA for New York.

[POJO_Risin]

You just absolutely have to love it...

and to think...El Duque is really their ace right now...

if HE remains their ace going into the playoffs...they won't last long...

[Bob_R]

The Yanks won today!

Are the STL Cardinals going to ever lose again?

If the Yanks don't do it I hope STL does.

I still feel sorry for them being ripped off in '85.

[POJO_Risin]

No way for the Yanks...I just wonder if the Cards pitching will be true to form once the playoff pressure starts...

[Bob_R]

The Yanks and Red Sox play each other 6 more times.

17-8 loss to a last place team???

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- Joe Torre was left speechless by the New York Yankees' latest embarrassing loss.

Two weeks ago, when Cleveland shocked the top team in the AL with a 22-0 clobbering, the Yankees manager called his players to a meeting.

But after the Kansas City Royals scored 10 runs in the fifth inning of a 17-8 rout Monday night, Torre decided just to let it go.

``I don't know what I would say to them,'' Torre said. ``We didn't pitch very well. We know we can score runs, but in order to win you need to pitch. It was not a good day.''

John Buck hit a three-run homer and Angel Berroa had two hits and scored twice in the fifth inning.

The Royals sent 15 men to the plate against four pitchers in the biggest inning against the Yankees since Boston scored 11 in a 13-7 victory on May 31, 1998.

It was the second double-digit inning in a week for the Royals, the AL's losingest team. They scored 11 in the third inning of a 26-5 victory Thursday over the Detroit Tigers.

On Monday, Kansas City scored on a walk, a balk, two wild pitches, a home run and three singles and dropped New York's lead to three games in the AL East over idle Boston.

While the Yankees go for a championship, the Royals are nearing the end of a miserable season -- concentrating on not breaking the franchise record of 100 losses.

``Every time a team is in first place they don't want to play a last-place team because the last-place team wants to show they belong in the big leagues,'' Royals manager Tony Pena said. ``They have nothing to lose.''

Kansas City????? Wow.... Stienbrenner's blood pressure must outta sight over this.....

SOMEBODYS ass is gonna get kicked for these losses. Wanta bet if this continues in any fashon Torre gets his walking papers????

Yanks magic number is 8.

[Bob_R]

[Bob_R]

In a makeup game vs. TB being played as I type this the Yanks lead 4-0.

[Bob_R]

Yanks win, Red Sox lose. Lead is 4 1/2 games with a big three game series beginning tonight. Magic number for a 7th straight AL East title is 6. Yesterday's win clinched a 10th straight post season berth for the Yanks. They are assured of at least a wild card.

[Bob_R]

Yanks beat Boston 6-4 to increase their lead to 5 1/2 games and drop the magic number to 4.

[Figs]

Yanks are now 19-11 in games Martinez starts.


I just saw "Nine Innings form Ground Zero" - very good.

BoSox rip the Yanks 12-5. Lead back down to 4 1/2 but time is running out on Boston.

Nice spin job huh? :)

[Bob_R]

Boston beats us 11-4. Wins this series 2-1 after losing last weekend's series 2-1.

Lead is 3 1/2 games heading into the last week of the season. Yanks have 6 games left, Boston 7.

[POJO_Risin]

Great shot of Locklear by the way...

Yanks win the division...but now ask themselves this question...

can they win with Pedro and Schilling 1-2 on the top of that staff...

with fucking Duque as their #1?

[Bob_R]

Yanks were idle last night. Boston won. With the win they clinched a playoff spot and the lead is now 3 games and each team has 6 games to play.

It's raining here today and expected to get heavier the Yanks game may be called and they'll have to play a doubleheader tomorrow

[Igosplut]

We were a 1/2 game behind because of a rainout of a earlier game with Baltimore I think.....

The magic number is 1 for clinching a 7th straight AL East crown.

Yankees win on a ninth inning walk off homer by Bernie Williams. It clinches the division for the Yanks and gives them 100 wins. The Yanks will also end up with the best home record in baseball.

[Figs]

Yeah, they had a few chances - something like 0 for 7 with runners in scoring position, not to mention all the DP's. Which Kevin Brown will we see tonight? A lot of question marks with their starters. To me it's not that surprising to see any of them pitch great or horrible.

PANAMA CITY, Panama (AP) - A grieving Mariano Rivera returned to Panama after two family members were electrocuted in his pool, but the star reliever intends to be in New York when the Yankees open their playoff series with the Boston Red Sox.

Rivera learned of the deaths while celebrating with his teammates in the clubhouse after the Yankees beat the Minnesota Twins on Saturday to reach the AL championship series.
"I have to comply with my family obligations, and I will return to New York on Tuesday," he told the newspaper La Prensa upon arriving in Panama late Sunday.

Victor Dario Avila, a cousin of Rivera's wife, Clara, and his 14-year-old son were killed Saturday while cleaning the pool at the pitcher's home, Rivera's cousin, Irma Rivera, told The Associated Press.

The teenager, also named Victor Dario Avila, apparently touched an electrical wire while tending to the pool in Puerto Caimito, 40 miles from Panama City. His father died trying to save him, Irma Rivera said.

Yankees general manager Brian Cashman told the Daily News that Rivera would be in the bullpen for Game 1 of the ALCS. Rivera's agent, Fernando Cuza, told The New York Times and Newsday the closer informed him he would be with the team Tuesday night.

Yankees manager Joe Torre was expected to address the matter during Monday's workout at Yankee Stadium. New York advanced by beating Minnesota 6-5 in 11 innings, with Rivera getting the win.

Both the Times and the News reported Monday that Rivera's brother-in-law discovered the victims and was injured while trying to rescue them from the water. The Times said the man, the husband of Clara Rivera's sister, was hospitalized Sunday night in stable condition, according to a correspondent for Editora Panama America, which publishes three national newspapers in Panama.

Avila was a fisherman who also cleaned and maintained Rivera's home. Clara Rivera was traveling to Panama following the accident, family members said.

"Everyone is sad," Irma Rivera said. "Victor was a good man."

Rivera, a key to the Yankees' four World Series titles and six AL pennants since 1996, has been perhaps the biggest factor in their postseason success, converting 30 of 33 save chances. Torre considers Rivera so dependable that New York fans often count the game as a win as soon as they hear "Enter Sandman," the Metallica song played at Yankee Stadium when Rivera jogs from the bullpen to the mound.

Against Boston in Game 7 of last year's ALCS, Rivera pitched three scoreless innings in his longest appearance since Sept. 6, 1996. He won the series MVP award.

While the acquisition of Tom Gordon enabled Torre to lessen Rivera's eighth-inning appearances and helped the closer save a career-high 53 games this year, the Yankees regard Rivera as irreplaceable, a reason the team agreed in March to a $21 million, two-year contract extension through 2006.

"It's a domino effect when you lose a guy like Rivera," pitching coach Mel Stottlemyre said last year, when Rivera began the season of the disabled list with a groin injury.

MLB recalls pro-Yankees T-shirts


BOSTON (AP) - Yankees fans will need more than a T-shirt to taunt the Red Sox.

A day before Boston and New York started the AL championship series, Major League Baseball recalled a T-shirt it had sanctioned because it rubbed Red Sox fans the wrong way.

The message on the shirt that drew the negative reaction read: "Hey Red Sox ... Who's your daddy?"

The shirt bears both a Yankees logo and a picture of a red pacifier with the letter "B" on it - a reference to remarks Red Sox ace Pedro Martinez made after a recent loss to Boston's longtime rivals.

"Call the Yankees my daddy. I can't find a way to beat them at this point," Martinez said.

MLB began offering the shirt for wholesale distribution to licensed retailers over the weekend and promoted it on a website, spokesman Carmine Tiso said.

On Monday, the few thousand shirts that were made were recalled from retailers, and the shirt was removed from the website.

"We did hear some feedback from the Boston fans, who didn't necessarily feel they were comfortable with the T-shirt and the message on it," Tiso said. "Some fans felt it went a little too far, and obviously in this instance we're listening to our fans."

Although most MLB-sanctioned apparel promotes individual teams without denouncing their rivals, there have been some items that touched on baseball's biggest rivalries.

The ALCS starts Tuesday night at Yankee Stadium. Last year, New York beat Boston on Aaron Boone's 11th-inning homer in Game 7.

Yankees win a thriller 10-7 to take a 1-0 series lead.

Boston can handle that they lost the first game. But, they got Schilling to beat the Yanks and they must be worried about his status for the rest of the series.

Kevin Millar is working on a new slogan....

It's not over, but it's going great so far. Yanks seem to have trouble with Arroyo; God knows why, but they do. Hopefully Brown is in good shape. Gordon still looks like Shi'ite. Wakefield & Lowe shouldn't pose any serious threat.

[Big Train]

Jealousy?

Not at all my friend. I just think baseball needs some serious reform. These hollow yanks victories need to stop (and no I'm not talking bout last night-congrats for playing well).

I'll do you one better. I hope you beat us and go to the world series, so we can have another one of the lowest rated series in recent years, which hurts baseball where it counts.

You're right. The Red Sox would bring much better ratings than the Yanks. Who wouldn't want to watch them implode in the World Series instead of the ALCS?

[Big Train]

As opposed to watching the greatest collection of paychecks ever do what they are extremely overpayed to do? I'd say your right.

I'd rather watch them lose than watch a stacked deck win.

I wonder what it felt like to ol Stein to get his ass handed to him by the marlins.

OK, who the hell is available from the bullpen tomorrow, on either team? And there's plenty of rain in the forecast. 2 games blown by walking that sack of shit Millar.

I really don't know what to say. I'm confident that the Yanks are taking it in 6. But, I wish it was over. So, the pitching staff can get some rest. Particularly, Rivera.

[Carmine]

ya know, these fakkin' Red Sox are like the fly that keeps landing on your burger at a picnic! you swat em but he keeps coming back... finish it tonight in front of the home crowd!

[Figs]

The rain is supposed to taper off. I'm not sure who would benefit more from a rainout for tonight. Which Schilling will show up tonight? Need 8 innings from Lieber. Can he handcuff them again? Helps being home. I want another 5 o'clock start. Fuck it, well I guess it's good drama!

Correct call. Throwing stuff is bullshit, and there are other examples from other cities. I can see being mad and booing - it was difficult to see "the swat" on tv before the replay - they don't announce these things over the loudspeaker and they sometimes don't show controversial replays on the big screen.

Why did Jeter have to go back to 1st? He would have been safe at 2nd if there was no swat. Was that a penalty? Not that it had any effect on the game.

[Fairwrning]

thats true..Jeter had 2nd...i guess its considered a dead ball...good point..

I wondered about that myself but they cleared it up after the game.

Interferance call with a runner on states that the runner must go back to the last base he was safe at before the interferance.

That rule really needs to be changed to a judgement call.....Jeter had second.

To alot of people, the World Series is anti-climatic. The Sox did something NO other team has ever done, and the Yankees had the biggest collapse in playoff HISTORY.

This year will always be remembered for the Red Sox beating the Yankees.

alright, my hat is off to the red sox! They did something that has never been done before, ever!! Even though I cant stand them and I will root against them no matter its Houston or St. Loius( hoping for Astros), if they continue to play and hit like they are they deserve to win.

Horror? Maybe for some, but not me. Unlike you, I care more about my team winning than I do my rival losing. That seems to be the mindset of Red Sox fans, as you are showing a perfect example of. I won't feel any different if the Red Sox win the WS than I will if the Cardinals win. The fact is, my team won't be winning this year. After that, it means nothing to me on what the Red Sox or any other team do.

But hey, at least you beat the Yankees, right? :)

1918 is STILL alive...

Prediction

Sox take the first 3 from Cards then Cards come storming back taking the remaining 4.

Instantly making the Yankee choke job NOTHING in comparison.

Book it.

alright, my hat is off to the red sox! They did something that has never been done before, ever!! Even though I cant stand them and I will root against them no matter its Houston or St. Loius( hoping for Astros), if they continue to play and hit like they are they deserve to win.

again Red Sox fans: I give props where they are due!!!!

Thanks Carmine...you are a credit to Yankee Fans everywhere...

ps, Ive NEVER chanted 'Yankees Suck...." because I know that 26 World Series Chanpionships means that you dont suck. And I think that Derek Jeter is one of the greatest 'gamers' of all time (but he really needs to stop jumping out of the dugout every time the Yanks hit a home-run...)

Raguzza,

It's over...you know who your daddy is and you know the curse is dead.

I do thank you for being a sportsman about it.

Perhaps now that the Red Sox have won the big one, our teams and cities can respect each other and be more civil...

probably not, was dreaming about the look on A-Rod's face when we were victorious tonight....but I do hope we can.

I hope the sisters (jeter and A-Rod) can pull it together next season for the next chapter. Never a dull moment..

Yanks-Mets tickets went fast.....

I placed my order at 10:01, after about 15-20 min it came up with Bleacher seats. It ain't the old days of $3 bleacher seats and getting plastered, so I didn't get them. I guess buying on the web just isn't a good option.

play ball!!!
