Re: red sox suck

That was one of the longest home runs I've ever seen at Fenway.... god....dammit



Worst part is that in my absolute rage I broke a $185 coffee table - the only real table in my apartment too. I'm sending the bill to Francona for letting Embree lead off the 8th.

Re: red sox suck

as a die hard yankee fan who is realistic i have had some thoughts this season i never had.

1. i find this season more enjoyable because the ups and downs have me reeling at times.

2. i find a lot more suspense in each game because it is no longer expected that they win. you hope.

3. Jeter is having a brilliant year under the radar. A-rod is learning that it isnt how many hits you have, its when you get them. MO is in a banner year.

4. you notice torre and mattingly a lot more now that the team struggled so much.

5. they have to earn it now. it isnt expected any more.

as a lifetime yankee fan, i concur sightless.
i havent been locked on to baseball this hard since i was a younger kid.
its exciting again!

Re: red sox suck

I think it's exciting again because the Orioles are in the mix this year. The AL East is most likely going to send 2 teams to the playoffs with the wildcard so there is a great playoff race happening early in the season.

Re: red sox suck

There's been so much talk the last few years about how Bos/NYY know eachother so well and how closely they play eachother - but what no one ever mentions is that Baltimore knows both of those teams just as well. This is the most even these three teams have been in ages and it's going to make for an insane second half, which means I'll probably be breaking more expensive furniture before the year is through.

Fuckin A why can't the sox be up by 90 games at the break and just run away with the division early? Instead I've got to sweat out each and every inning like its game 7 - just once I'd like to watch my home team play and have complete and total confidence that they'll win.


Guess I'll just have to wait until the Pats kick off for that.

Re: red sox suck

kobe , dont go there. tell your team's fans to show up like NY/Bos/LAA fans do and you'll have the revenues. the Boss has not paid a single penny out of his pocket since the initial buy. it all comes from the money they earn.


stop saying that "he" buys ppl with "his " money. just show up.

Why can't I go there? Yankee fans can?t have their gloat sessions interrupted?

Whether it is right, wrong, fair, or even feasible for any other team are all debates for a different thread. I am posting on the subject of "suck," so considering the advantage they have over the rest of baseball, isn't it the 3rd place, 47-40 Yankees that suck? (A team, BTW, that only recently got above a .500 record)

here's the link for everyone else to see: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/teams/salaries?team=nyy

I mean come on:

- There's only one team who they don't have double (or much more) the payroll of.

- There are 6 teams that combined don't make Jeter and A-rod's combined salary.

- 2/3's of the league have an entire team payroll that is less than the difference between NYY and BOS's payrolls.

I could go on but you get the point-- any way you turn these numbers over the Yankess are, to put it lightly, under performing.

BUT, I am glad you're enjoying the season.

Re: red sox suck

What the hell is Baltimore doing paying Sammy Sosa over 17 million this year to strike out every at bat. What a waste.

Re: red sox suck

At least he will hit home runs and drive in runs, we are paying Bellhorn $2,750,000 and he strikes out at least 2 times a game and doesn't give us anything aother than a good glove in the field.

so glad i got to see last nights game on ESPN at 3am. i stayed up til 5 to watch the yanks come back to win. gotta love those homeruns!!!!

your facts are BS. he doesnt pay his own money. should he just take more profit at the expense of the tteam? like i said, tell your teams fans to show up. your team would have a larger payroll, and if they didnt could only blame the owner. if anything, blame yankee fans for caring enough to actually go to the game.
