WOW, Johnson sucks...


he's either lights out or he sucks...I'd still rather have him then Shilling..

You are certainly entitled to your opinion...

Just out of curiosity, what is your rational?

Is it because Johnson is a "Better Pitcher"?

Is it because Johnson is a "Better Teammate"?

Maybe, it's because Johnson is an all around Nice guy?

Face it, if Schilling was wearing Pinstripes, and the situation was reversed, (I.E. Schilling being totally overpaid and sucking a big black cock and Johnson being the backbone of the Sox) your opinion would be reversed as well.

My rational is I hate Red Sox fans that constantly throw little jabs. The guy had been hot and cold all year. He had 3 great starts before this one, it really irritates me to see your posts.. I went to school in Boston and all of my friends are red sox fans and you are all the same...

Know what I hate?

I hate ANY fan of a team who hates on players from another team just because they play on said competing team. You sound like a fucking 2 year old! <retarded voice> "I HATE THIS GUY AND THAT GUY BECAUSE HE PLAYS FOR BOSTON!" <retarded voice>

I could give a shit if you my posts irritate you, at least I back what I say up with facts. If you look back at almost all of my posts in this forum, you will see that although I am a lifelong Red Sox fan, I have a lot of respect for many of the Yankee players. I have had many conversations regarding the Yankees, that had nothing to do with the Red Sox. In fact, if you look back 1 page, you will see this whole thing was started by you,

I'd rather have him than Shilling...

Why would you even bring him into this? I was actually watching the game and saw Johnson getting schelacked and made comment. I didn't say anything about the Red Sox, you did. So I'll ask you, "who is taking Jabs now?"

My "jabs" are directed to those who are only about the almighty $$, not about the game." Yes, before you start ripping me apart about the Red Sox having guys like that on the payroll, I am fully aware of it and am as equally disgusted by it. The difference is, atleast the Sox are having some success with them so it's hard (as a Sox fan) to hate them that much. Trust me, when they shit the bed, which is a distinct possibility, I will have plenty to say about them too.

I love to see the home grown talent flourish, (i.e. Melky, Bernie, Posada, Jeter, etc to name a few).

As far as Johnson having 3 great starts before yesterday, one was against Atlanta, probably one of, if not the worst teams in Baseball. In his last 5 starts he is 2-3. Hardly makes him worth the distinction of being the highest paid pitcher in Baseball...

I don't like Johnson because of who he is, not who he plays for.

Now, until you can formulate a response to me with facts rather than your opinions, stiffle!:action-sm

I could care less about Johnson's contract..and if your whole thing is a crusade against overpaid players then, I don't have a comment, because that's just dumb...Didn't Johnson get that contract after a cy young season?? Since he is a future hall of famer, I don't see why he would sign for less..

Has he had some struggles, sure, but he has also shown signs of life. And I don't care if he goes 12-15 w/ a 6.00 era during the season if he can put it together and be a dominate playoff pitcher.

Now, to the schilling comment..There is a reason why I do not post on the Red Sox thread, they are not my team and I'm sure people would not appreciate it if I started posting, wow Beckett really sucks, or how about Clement..Or how about the great season that captain Varitek is having..Talk about overpaid..

It's not my teams thread so I am not going to fuel the fire by pointing out something they already know...

You do contribute to this thread but I know your a Red Sox fan, and I personally hate Red Sox fans...I think you are all a bunch of douchebags..I have met dozens of Red Sox fans, and I can honestly say there is only one that I do not think is a complete ass when it comes to baseball.. Your deciding to comment on Johnson while I'm listening to the Yankees get spanked by the Mets is extremely irritating, the last thing I want to see is a Red Sox fan comment that Johson really sucks..

Well, at least you used some fact rather than your opinion here.

You are right on pretty much every point, with the exception of Beckett & Tek. Tek is having an off year & the plate but he is doing a fantastic job calling the game. That with his leadership is worth the $10 million paycheck. It's the going rate for top notch catchers today. I'm not ready to sell him out yet, but you're somewhat right. If he slips anymore, it will get a lot harder to justify the payroll.

My comment on Johnson came out of the same frustration that you were feeling. Yes, I'm a Red Sox fan, but I'm also a fan of the AL. I root for the AL everytime they are playing, so yes, I was rooting for the Yanks to beat the shit out of the METS. I know that may shock you as we are all "Douchebags" but it is what it is.

As I said earlier, it's not all about Johnson being overpaid, it's more about him being a shithead. Even you, as a Yankee fan, have to admit that. Weather or not he'll be a contributer in the Post season is yet to be seen. The fact is that if he keeps playing like he is, the Post season won't even be a consideration.

As far as me posting in this thread, I live in NY and watch almost every Yankee game as well as follow them fairly close all season. If you don't like me because I'm a "Douchebag", fine. Trust me I won't lose any sleep. If you don't like me because I'm a Red Sox fan, brother, you need to get a life.

Anyway, hopefully Wright shows up to pitch today. If he's on, they should be able to have a good game today as I think they are going to tee off on Soler. I'm looking for Giambi to have a big game today.

[TheJerseyDevil]

Even at 13 - 4 I get worried about our bullpen getting it done. Despite all the problems, the Yankees had a very good first half. I feel the division lead will change a few more times before the end of the regular season.

[RobeSoup&Tears]

Without writing a whole lot to justify...The Yanks should have a better second have of a season and make up ground and a run into the post season.

[FAZ8218]

I was at the game tonight... just a great time. AND I met Bronx Johnny. I got A-Rod's grand slam on video, I'll have a youtube link sometime tomorrow.

[Jimmy's Dignity]

A-Rod has hit as many HR's in July as he did throughout all of June...and he's only 2 RBIs behind that....mand did he suck black cock last month

mmm....HD even in Cleveland

[John Basedow]

Fucking schwoogie umpire calls a ball a foot out side and almost in the dirt a fucking strike. Would've been a 3-0 count and Wickman probably would've walked him. What the hell is up with guys named Buckner fucking up games?

[Jimmy's Dignity]

I hate Michael Kay...they're talking about how the Yanks have been in bad need of pitching this season.

The only name that's out there is . I was talking to his manager down in AA Trenton and asked him who he most compares to. He thought about it for a minute and said, 'Roger Clemens.' He's 6'4", 230 lbs right now, he'll probably be 250 in the near future. I asked him how he projects...'Is he a 2nd or 3rd starter?' And the manager said, 'Michael...[i]he is an ACE!!!' When I asked if he could pitch in the majors right now, he said 'Absolutely without a doubt.' Every team has asked Brian Cashman for this kid...now the only question is whether or not they trade him

After spending fuckin 3 minutes waxing poetic about this 20 year old stallion down in Trenton, he then ponders if/when the Yanks will trade him...fantastic

Goddamn you A-Rod, when the catcher drops strike 3 you actually run it out, not jog out of the batter's box and then walk...faggot

Melky :clap: :clap: :clap: great game for him tonight

[Ben's Bulge]

Philip Hughes?

[askewcore]

Philip Hughes?

Yes. Thats who he was talking about.

[Ben's Bulge]

Why don't they call him up if he's so good?

[Jimmy's Dignity]

I'm guessing they dont' want to "rush" him up...it's smart though, I'll take it when he's old enough and ready to pitch in the Bronx

please don't trade him for some aging douche like usual

I'll definately take a split like that after taking it on the chin for the first two. TJ Beam looked pretty good last night (as opposed to the mess that was the 19-1 pig slaughter)

[Perch1019]

Does anyone have a link to audio for the Sterling "The Melk Man always knocks twice" line? My friend was in Hawaii for it and does not believe that he could have said something like that.

[Jimmy's Dignity]

that is an inexcusable atrocious call...if it was his 2nd home run in the game, it'd still be atrocious, but almost understandable

[askewcore]

Since no one has mentioned it yet...
Yanks sign Sidney Ponson (http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2518391)

...Yay...?

[Halo Five]

Since Ponson cleared waivers Wednesday, the Yankees will be responsible for the pro-rated portion of the minimum salary -- between $150,000 and $175,000 -- for the rest of this season. St. Louis will pay the rest of Ponson's $1 million salary.


for the money they are spending... not too bad of a deal.

[Jimmy's Dignity]

not too bad...aside from the fact that he sucks

4-4, 5.24 ERA, 29 BB, 33K this season

80-95, 4.83 ERA career...and we're relying on him to be our 5th starter for the rest of the season? :icon_eek:

Why couldn't Boston have won that "Carlpaloza" bullshit for the terminally injured Pavano?

[Cybouncer]

for the money they are spending... not too bad of a deal.


I would have to agree with you on this one.

Yes he sucks ass but for the small amount of money they are laying out for him, he adds some much needed depth to the rotation.

[Vic Mackey]

Why the hell didn't Ozzie leave McCarthy in, and why didn't AJ or Podsenik start, WTF!!!!!

[askewcore]

why didn't AJ or Podsenik start, WTF!!!!!

they were both sick with Johnsonitis.

[Tickle The Bag]

Boston got the piss kicked out of themselves tonight. God damn.

[Jimmy's Dignity]

mmmm......Boston losing, Yanks winning = tasty

you realize that this time last year the Yanks were only out of first by 2 and a half?

[Halo Five]

Can we say PWNED?

Buehrle's line:

3 INN, 8 HA, 2 BBI, K, 8 ER, 24.000 ERA, 3.333 WHIP

[Vic Mackey]

That was fucking pathetic today, no other way to put that one.

[7cent]

Let's get the sweep..Yanks have done pretty good with these central teams..

[TheJerseyDevil]

The lead is slowly dwindling. If the Yankees become percentage points better than the Mets, can I be like "hurrrr I *snort* like the -BEST- team in NY *snort* "?

[IDontCare05]

Just got back from the game.....(yes I am a Mets fan, but the tickets were free..Great seats too!).

The White Sox sucked.....That defintly didnt look like the champion Sox.




It was funny today tho.....A red sox fan was about to get the shit beat out of him...until a cop stopped it. HAha

[TheJerseyDevil]

Tom Brady was in the crowd, right above the Yanks dugout, hopefully someone sprayed him with beer. I have had the shittiest luck with Yankees games this year, the weather was non-stop drizzle for both games that I have been at.
Im anxious to see what Ponson can put together.

[TheJerseyDevil]

Congrats Mo on your 400th career save

This is the Yanks 4th time ever having swept the defending World Series champs in a 3 game series @ the Stadium...'98 Marlins, the Orioles back in the day, and the even further back version of some other asshats

Anywho, its Ponson time. Time to hold our breath.

[TheJerseyDevil]

Crazy turn of events, the Yanks tie it up in a driving rain in the bottom of the ninth and then the tarp is put on the field. Looks like Ill be up late.

[Perch1019]

Jorge was so out but i dont give a shit.

WTF! How can you call the game with a 3-1 count and 2 outs in the 9th?

[TheJerseyDevil]

Ever play baseball in a severe downpour? Combine late game heroics with rain and I get all tingley inside. Go Yanks

[askewcore]

Game's back. A-rod got out. Surprise.

Bonus baseballlll at 12:10

No Mo....Boooooo

[Jimmy's Dignity]

nice fuckin catch by Bernie....my level of surprise at A-Rod striking out is smaller than my chances of being the guy who actually broke up Carmen Electra's wedding

holy fuck...Farnsworth, where did your 101 come from?!?
Jeet...please hit another HR...I wanna go to bed

[Ben's Bulge]

I think A-Rod is trying to lose on purpose.

[askewcore]

I think everyone should lay off the A-Rod. He's been struggling, but he's still nasty. The fans need to realize that he's not of of those guys who can up his game when gets booed, like Jeet did. He presses too mcuh and ends up striking out.

And you cant blame him for losing tonight. Wells is good. He took a tough pitch and drove it out. What can ya do?

You can throw the ball to Jorge and get the guy out instead of causing a huge rally for the other team. Just a thought.

Yeah. I'm not saying he doesnt fuck up. He's got 17 errors and thats nuts. But I think the fans need to realize that by booing him, they are making him try too hard and he ends up fucking up more. Sometimes Yankee/NY fans are really big dickheads.

Nah, Nah, I'm not. I was just speakin in general terms. Really, losing this game was Mo's fault. He threw the GW HR pitch. But he's still the man so...

[25133WhooOoAH]

i agree, why boo the guy? man tonight though when i saw that ball pass posada, i got the douche chills sitting there like GOD NO! i feel bad for him now whenever he fucks up, you can see in his eyes , oh great another thing they'll talk about, must be stressful

[Halo Five]

Jesus Fucking Christ A-ROD!

[25133WhooOoAH]

i turned the game off and the highlights showed me the other error Tonight! 3 in one game and now 1 in the last 2 games, man he isnt throwign the ball right anymore

[Ben's Bulge]

He's looking like Chuck Knoblauch these days.

[HockeyHelmet]

We aren't going to make the playoffs this year. It just is not going to happen. :icon_sad:

[Jimmy's Dignity]

Jesus goddamned Christ...A-Rod, you own Ted Lilly over the span of your career. And you go 0-3 with 3 k's...you fuckin douche

Good thing Lilly followed that up with a balk that got a run in. What the fuck is wrong with this ass-hat?

...and if it's not him fucking up out in the field, now it's Nick Green playin fuckin butterfingers

[Jimmy's Dignity]

June 22nd, 1995...that was the last time that A-Rod went 0-4 with 4 K's...oh wait, no he did it again today. And of course, with the bases loaded on the last one

June 4th of '04, he took an 0-4 as DH in Baltimore...he's DHing tonight cause he couldn't catch herpes from a crackwhore with an outbreak

7 for his last 31..."He's had a rough July" Gee ya think Kay? You stupid fucktard

Matsui making progress... (http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2528539)

Matsui making progress in comeback from wrist injury

TAMPA, Fla. -- New York Yankees left fielder Hideki Matsui is making progress in his comeback from a broken left wrist but still isn't ready to take batting practice.

Matsui took easy swings off a tee and during a soft toss session with a mini-bat during his second workout Monday at the Yankees' minor-league complex. He also had a long toss session and fielded fly balls and grounders in the outfield.

"At this point, there are no problems," Matsui said through a translator. "I'm practicing to where it doesn't cause any problems."

Matsui has been sidelined since breaking his wrist while diving for a fly ball hit by Boston's Mark Loretta on May 11. A batting practice timetable could be set next week if Matsui is re-examined.

The Yankees are hopeful Matsui can rejoin the team in August.

"Right now I don't have a specific date," Matsui said. "I'm working on it now, expecting to be back as soon as possible."

Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano, out with a left hamstring injury, did agility drills Monday in the outfield in addition to taking batting practice and fielding grounders. He hasn't played since he got hurt running out a double against Florida on June 25.

The All-Star infielder hopes to run the bases Friday or Saturday. If that goes well, he could start a minor-league rehab assignment next week.

"It's feeling a lot looser," Cano said. "But I don't want to rush it."

Cano would likely play in two or three minor-league games before rejoining the Yankees.

[Perch1019]

Yeah. I'm not saying he doesnt fuck up. He's got 17 errors and thats nuts. But I think the fans need to realize that by booing him, they are making him try too hard and he ends up fucking up more. Sometimes Yankee/NY fans are really big dickheads.

Fuck that. I hate how the media is now blaming yankee fans for the fact that this guy cant do shit when it comes down to it. These are the 2 that im really sick of hearing: "The fans booing him makes him press to hard." or "Alex is very hard on himself and hes putting to much on himself to come out of it".
You make 25 million dollars a year and god knows how much in endorsements and your telling me that a bunch of people booing makes you strike out EVERY time the game is on the line? If thats the case, then he needs to accept any trade they offer up and get out of NY.
With the exception of the 3error game that they won, it seems that every error he makes bites them in the ass and is in some big spot.

Im not saying we need to get rid of him because i think hes an awesome player and I would love to see him hit 800Hrs in stripes, but the guy needs to grow a set of nuts, ignore the fans and just start playing decent again.


Oh and "Guile goes boom!". Guess this guy is turning out to be quite a steal

Yanks designate Stinnett, add Sal Fasano. (http://newyork.yankees.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/article.jsp?ymd=20060726&content_id=1576202&vkey=news_nyy&fext=.jsp&c_id=nyy)

ARLINGTON -- Looking to improve their backup catcher position, the Yankees acquired Sal Fasano from the Phillies on Wednesday morning.

New York sent Minor League infielder Hector Made to Philadelphia to complete the deal.

To make room for Fasano on their roster, the Yankees designated Kelly Stinnett for assignment.

Fasano, 34, batted .243 with four home runs and 10 RBIs in 50 games with the Phillies before landing on the disabled list on July 4 with left knee inflammation. He was designated for assignment on July 22.

Fasano spent the 2004 season in the Yankees organization, spending Spring Training with New York before being sent to Triple-A Columbus for the year. In 368 career games with six teams, Fasano owns a career batting average of .225 with 45 home runs and 125 RBIs.

Stinnett, 36, hit just .228 in 34 games with the Yankees this season, striking out 29 times in 79 at-bats. He was signed by the Yankees this winter to replace John Flaherty as Jorge Posada's backup, but he did not live up to expectations at the plate.

trade deadline 2006
complete coverage >

Made, 21, hit .286 in 86 games with Class A Tampa in 2006. He was signed by the Yankees as a non-drafted free agent out of the Dominican Republic on July 17, 2001.

As a unbiased non Met or Yankee fan I would place the Mets as the 6th or 7th best AL team.

1. Detroit
2. Boston
3. Yankees
4. White Sox
5. Twins
6. Blue Jays
7. Mets

Ouch. Scathing AND original. :icon_roll

You're supposed to hate the Mets because you're from Philly.

Get used to being bitter though, the Eagles have a nice spot reserved for them in last place this season too.

Why I hate all of New York even their stupid soccer teams (don't care about soccer though) Next season willBE.

THE DAWNING OF A NEW ERA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:clap:
THE ERA OF PHILADELPHIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:clap:
THE ERA OF THE PHILLIES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:clap:

[Tickle The Bag]

Randy showed up with a hangover today I think. Fuck it, lets move on to tommorrow get the ball in Moose's hands.

[TheJerseyDevil]

Our Yanks made out like bandits on this one. Abreu, despite low power numbers can get on base like its his job, oh wait it is, chuckle chuckle. Lidle is a solid 4th/5th starter.

[MilkmanDan]

Good job Yanks on the Abreu deal. Corey Lidle stinks btw, he'll have 1 great outing then 5 bad.
No clue about the prospects, Phils just looking to unload cash it seems. Abreu is a very good hitting, his power is gone but a good eye at the plate. The golden glove thing is a joke though, just kinda watch and see on that, you'll never see an outfielder play it safe the way Bobby Abreu does in the field.

Oh Sal Fassano? Hehe thanks for taking that mess. Phils called up a 33 year old rookie catcher (Chris Coste)and he's hitting .339 with more RBI's then Fassano in 1/3 the games.
Fassano strikes out every 2.5 at bats, but enjoy the crazy mustache. You guys have plenty of weapons without.

[Perch1019]

YES, IT WILL

THE ERA OF PHILLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:clap: :clap: :clap:

The era of teams who choke in the clutch and will never win anything more than a division crown. What an era.

[Perch1019]

Way to come through old man. 4-1 yanks

Sterling just gave the "Bern baby Bern" on the bases clearing double. I really have found a new love for listening to this ass.

[25133WhooOoAH]

good game so far

[TheJerseyDevil]

Catch-Phrases or not, John Sterling as been a part of alot of awesome moments in my life, the man is a legend.

[askewcore]

Yeah, I agree. We all give him shit, but aside from his catch phrases, which now are so lame you have to love them, he calls a good game.

That being said, I hope Abreu breaks his power slump because I cnt wait to hear how this douche calls it. My vote goes to, "Bobby the Bopper!"

[Perch1019]

My bro and i were having dinner while watching the game and kept comming up with a couple of them. My fav was "it is high, it is far, it is gone. BOB-BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE"

[Perch1019]

That slide by Arod was awesome. The GEORGIE JUICES ONE!

[TheJerseyDevil]

Lidle is pitching Li....ghts out!
.....?

[askewcore]

Lidle is pitching Li....ghts out!
.....?

*rimshot*

He really has been cruisin. Up until the homer he just gave up and the double that followed...

[Kyle]

Lidle's not a bad pitcher, especially if he gets run support.

He's just not the kind of guy who will win you a 1-0 or 2-1 type of game.

[askewcore]

Lidle's not a bad pitcher, especially if he gets run support.

We havent gotten a win from the guy in our fifth pitcher spot since May. I welcome Lidle.

[Kid Brock]

Wow Corey Lidle. Who knew?

[highfive]

go tribe.....with Lidle giving us 6 innings as the 5th starter all we need now is the lanky motherfucker to pitch consistently and the yanks will win the division.

[Fruit Monkey]

First place all alone HAHA GOD DAM I always say August counts!

[askewcore]

First place all alone HAHA GOD DAM I always say August counts!

It sure is nice. And the Sox had Beckett going today, its always sweet when their best pitcher drops a game like that.

[TheJerseyDevil]

Thanks Philly!
Also, the Craig Wilson pick-up is huge in my opinion, he is a great Randy Velarde-type player who can do it all.

[Halo Five]

Looking good so far today...

[Aizazzle]

Your Welcome man we loved to unload Abreu's contract and you guys wanted him so there you can have him . Lidle is pretty inconsistent he has one good outing and then he might have 2 or 3 bad ones after that . I he does better than that then Congratulations to you . Anyway IF the Yankees don't make the playoffs then what do you guys do . I mean if you want Burrell we will gladly give him to you for a prospect(I'am not sure if he even deserves that). So thankyou Yankees for taking Abreu . We also look forward to you guys taking Burrell off our hands.

[askewcore]

Lidle is pretty inconsistent he has one good outing and then he might have 2 or 3 bad ones after that .

Maybe because your team sucks a dick.

On his way out of Philadelphia, Lidle said: "I'm the kind of player that goes to the field every day expecting to win, and unfortunately over the last few years I haven't had a clubhouse that expected to win with me. So we'd go to the field on the days I'm pitching, it's almost a coin flip as to know if the guys behind me are going to be there to play 100%."

And he's not the only pitcher to talk shit about Philly while going to a real sports town, where we win things.

Wagner said he "felt like it was 24 against 1" and that the team was waiting for him to fail during the 2004 season.

And why would the Yankees ever want Pat Burrell? You say alot of dumb shit with no reasoning behind it...

Now onto things people actually care about...

• The Devil Rays are convinced that the Red Sox had contact with the agent for Julio Lugo without their permission -- ESPN reported the contact between the Red Sox and Lugo's rep last Sunday evening -- and are furious about it, believing Boston did serious damage to their efforts to either trade or sign Lugo. And now Tampa Bay could block any player the Red Sox may try to pass through waivers.

I found this interesting. I wanna know whats up with Andruw Jones.

Two games up. Nice.

[25133WhooOoAH]

man were looking good so far going into august we've won 16 out of our last 22. and Im loving the red sox since the allstar break have been 12wins out of 24 games. No worries about the bluejays

Hey I know no one wants Burrell I was just messing except the Yankees because they want over-payed and under-performing players(Abreu)

Hey after Lidle is gone the Phillies are winning right.

Philly is as real sports town as they come we are as passionate as any fan base out there. Infact we are as good as NY,Boston possibly better.

[TheJerseyDevil]

Abreu is underperforming? Not on the Yankees. Philly, while a great sports town is second tier compared to New York and Boston.

[askewcore]

the Yankees because they want over-payed and under-performing players(Abreu)

Really? I wasnt aware going 10 for 25 with 3 doubles, hitting .400 and having an OBP of around .465 was underperforming. No matter what you say, Abreu was a great pickup for the Yanks, because he doesnt have to carry this team like he did with Philly.

And no matter how passionate Philly fans are, the teams there are still all losers. At least Boston has the Celtics and now the Pats. Philly has nothing to be proud of in sports. Except AI.

When was the last time the Celtics won anything ? We are more passionate than you because we still care about and support our teams when they are down. If Boston has the Celtics then we have the 83 Sixers

[askewcore]

When was the last time the Celtics won anything ?

1957, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1968, 1969, 1974, 1976, 1981, 1984, 1986.

When you've won 16 World Championships and 8 of 9, you get to say your team is a winner for all of history.

We are more passionate than you because we still care about and support our teams when they are down.

Yeah, because the Knicks didnt sell out the Garden consistently last season on the way to winning 21 games. The Mets fans also show up when their team is going bad. The Jets still sold out every game last season and they were awful. And the Giants have sold out every season since they started offering season tickets, and there is still a 30 year waiting list to get them.


If Boston has the Celtics then we have the 83 Sixers

Okay, now win 15 more times and then compare the two.

[Aizazzle]

So, the Yankees arent considered a winning franchise because they havent won since 2000? Thats interesting.

The point is, the Boston Celtics are the most successful franchise in basketball history, therefore, the people in Boston get to be proud of said team forever. See, you wouldnt know anything about that, your teams are losers. Thats the point.

...I cant believe I actually have to defend Boston.

In my opinion you are winners if you win in the present alright.If you diagree that's your opinion .

So Boston won in the past tell me their present. You shouldn't be proud because the Celtics won 20 yrs ago because that just means the teams stink right now and you are holding on to the past.

Yes you actually defended Boston . How are you a Yankee fan? Your head should be bowed in shame right now:icon_redf

you really should be banned from posting in sports forums. i cannot believe how dumb you are by saying the yankees aren't a primo sports franchise based solely upon WINNING. holy mother....and i'm a fucking Mets fan.

Thank you, sir. I really didnt wanna have to continue such a silly dicussion. Just root for the Redskins to come in third, so they finish better then the last place Eagles, then he'll be banned from the forums, as per his bet with Dick Whiskey.

[TheJerseyDevil]

Also, you can find Yankee fans anywhere on planet earth it seems, as for the Phillies........:crickets:........

[Jimmy's Dignity]

yea wait what? Why are we talking basketball in the Yanks thread?

Boston Red Sox 2004
New York Yankees 2000
New York Mets 1986
Philadelphia Phillies 1980

win a title in my lifetime and we can discuss. Basically you're saying that you are a loyal city eventhough all of your sports teams are consistant failures or championship cockteases

Correction only the sports forum and not wrestling .

By the way what have the Yankees done lately they haven't won anything in the past 5 yrs have they? Sure they have a history of winning but how the fuck does that count on the field?

FIVE YEARS! Five years is nothing, stupid. Do you realize how dumb you sound saying, "what have you done? you havent won since 2000!" you sound like a fucking waterhead.

And before that, they only won 4 out of 5 and three in a row. Thats nothing. Good thing it was so long ago that its ancient history :icon_roll .

They're still one of only 5 teams to win the World Series this century.

Oh, and they currently have the 2nd best record in all of baseball. And better then anyone in the NL.

[Jimmy's Dignity]

Dude, I saw a statistic last night on the Angels-White Sox game.

Not including the New York Yankees, only 9 teams have won consecutive World Series IN THE HISTORY OF BASEBALL

[Aizazzle]

I was 14-15 back then . I hated baseball back then because of the Fucking Yankees . Explain to me how does winning in the past help them on the field now. They have the 2nd best record in baseball eventhough how much larger is the Yankees payroll than the Tigers . Look I can respect you guys won but I don't get the point how does that help you now .

[askewcore]

Lets do a little experiment.

Last time the Phillies won the World Series, here's some of the shit that was happening in the world:

-Jimmy Carter is president.

-Ayatollah Khomeini names Abolhassan Banisadr as president of Iran.

-President Jimmy Carter announces that the United States will boycott the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow.

-Mount St. Helens erupts in Washington killing 57 and causing US$3 billion in damage

-Comedian Richard Pryor is badly burned trying to freebase cocaine.

-Former California Governor and actor Ronald Reagan is nominated for U.S. President

-U.S. presidential election, 1980: Republican challenger former Governor Ronald Reagan of California defeats incumbent Democrat President Jimmy Carter by a wide margin exactly one year after the beginning of the Iran hostage crisis.

-John Lennon is murdered by gunshot outside his New York apartment, by Mark Chapman.

-In a travesty, Ordinary People defeats Raging Bull for Best Picture

-Albert Pujols, Yao Ming, Randy Orton, Chein-Ming Wang are all born.

-Rollie Fingers breaks Hoyt Wilhelm's major league record of 227 career saves.

- Los Angeles Lakers won 4 games to 2 over the Philadelphia 76ers (Wow, a Philly team lost. Surprise, surprise.)

-Roberto Duran defeats Sugar Ray Leonard by a 15 round decision to win boxing's WBC world Welterweight title.

-In The No Más Fight, in Montreal, Quebec, Sugar Ray Leonard recovers the WBC's world Welterweight championship with an eight round technical knockout of Roberto Duran.

-Larry Holmes defeats Muhammad Ali by a knockout in round eleven to retain boxing's WBC world Heavyweight title, in what would be Ali's last world title bout.

-Super Bowl XIV (that means 14): Pittsburgh Steelers won 31-19 over the Los Angeles Rams

Now, lets see what was going on when the Yanks last won. It was so long ago, you might need an encyclopedia to recall such things.

-Millennium celebrations take place throughout the world, even though the new millennium did not technically begin until January 1, 2001. Y2K passes without the serious, widespread computer failures and malfunctions that many in the news media had predicted.

-Alan Greenspan is nominated for a fourth term as U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman.

-St. Louis Rams defeat the Tennessee Titans 23-16 to win the Super Bowl XXXIV. (that means 34. Wow, who remembers that shit>)

-Vice President Al Gore wins the New Hampshire Democratic primary. George W. Bush wins the Republican primary

-Hillary Clinton enters the New York Senate race. (I remember her. My grandfather told me about her. Because this was so long ago.)

-Hans Blix assumes the position of Executive Chairman of UNMOVIC.

-Presidential elections in Russia: Vladimir Putin is elected President.

-American Beauty wins for Best Picture at the Academy Awards. (surprised the film held up over all these years)

-The Official release date for The Marshall Mathers LP, Eminem's second solo album. (this guy used to be really famous)

-The New Jersey Devils defeat the Dallas Stars 4 games to 2 to win the 2000 Stanley Cup Finals.

-The Texas 7 escape from their prison unit in Kenedy, Texas, and start a crime spree.

-Tom Landry dies.

Get it? Now, unless you have something to contribute, stop posting in this thread.

[askewcore]

I was 14-15 back then . I hated baseball back then because of the Fucking Yankees . Explain to me how does winning in the past help them on the field now.

So, you weren't even ALIVE when Philly has won a title? Go jump in a lake. And why would you hate the Yankees then? Dont give me the fucking lame ass payroll shit excuse, because they didnt have any superstars on that team save for Clemens.


They have the 2nd best record in baseball eventhough how much larger is the Yankees payroll than the Tigers .

And the fact the Tigers play 38 games against the Indians and Royals, while the Yanks play 38 games against the Red Sox and Blue Jays has nothing to do with that right?

Look I can respect you guys won but I don't get the point how does that help you now .

Because it gives them that winning attitude. They know what it takes to win. If you deny that, you're retarded. It showed when we lost about 70 HRs and 250 RBIs from the middle of our lineup, yet still have the second best record in baseball. It also showed when the Mets hired our bench coach, with the sole purpose of teaching their young players how to win. How's that working out for them? Pretty well right, your Phillies are certainly staring up at Willie's ass. Although its real far away. You have no idea how winning helps a team, because you've never seen ANY of your teams win.

You're just bitter and jealous. Its okay.

[Aizazzle]

Thanks for the history lesson I don't really need it but thanks anyway.

How does the Yankees winning all those past World Series help them now when they are on the field ?Answer me

The Bullshit you said was all Intagibles Oh it gives them the winning attitude Bullshit . How many players are on this team that were also there when the Yankees won the Series.

By the way now we are down to making excuses . The Yankees play the Red Sox and Blue Jays .

I always hated the Yankees because everyone fucking was a bandwagon jumper for the Yankees because they won . If you don't live in NY or surronding areas why are you a Yankees fan??

Stop taking shots at EminEm I like the dude.(No Homo)

[askewcore]

How does the Yankees winning all those past Worls Series help them now when they are on the field ?Answer me

The fucking paragraph I just wrote wasnt enough? How about the ambiance of Yankee stadium too? There's very few players who have ever come in here, especially during the postseason (which you wont know much about) who have said the pressure and the history of playing in Yankee Stadium doesnt make it tough. It also helps us attract free agents. Again, something you wouldnt know about, because who the fuck wants to play, let alone live, in FUCKING PHILLY

Winning helps in the same way losing hurts. When you lose forever, like the Indians, Royals, Pirates and Phillies, your team half expects to lose. And then they do. When you have a winning attitude and tradition, your team tends to win more.

And Eminem sucks a big black meaty one.

[Kyle]

Picking a fight with Yankees fans about franchise history in baseball is pretty stupid.

Especially when you're a fan of the all-time losingest franchise in baseball history and the Yanks happen to be the all-time winningest.

You may want to pick a fight you can win, Aizzazle, like try taking on some Mets fans.

I do have to call askewcore out on one statement, though:

And the fact the Tigers play 38 games against the Indians and Royals, while the Yanks play 38 games against the Red Sox and Blue Jays has nothing to do with that right?

Yeah, because you know, it's not like the Yanks get the O's and Devil Rays for 38 games a year. :icon_roll

If you're coming up with reasons why the Yankees are better than the Tigers this year, there's a lot better than that one.

[askewcore]

Way to respond to my SECOND and less valid post, not the one with the real reasons, shitheel.

And way to come up with some good reasons against it. "Fuck Yankee Stadium" BRILLIANT man! Fucking enlightening. You wanna bet that this city and winning doesnt attract free agents? Just because our owner pumps his money back into his team, and we make money hand over fist everywhere we go, while the Phillies have to unload payroll year after year because no one supports, or cares about the team, doesnt mean you have to cry about it.

The one big player that Philly did get (TO) put your team over the hump that your mediocre QB couldnt do. Then you jerks ran him out of town.

It's quite refreshing that I'am getting my frustrations in some other people.

I love getting other people frustrated . I enjoy it quite a lot.

Kyle if you want to help me frustrate these Yankees fans further you are welcome to . But you wouldn't want to argue with a Yankees fan.

Good point on the Devil Rays and O's . Iwas just about to write about the White Sox and the Twins . I suppose the Twins are better then the Blue Jays .

What is Aizazzle trying to prove? Were living in the past? Then what are you living in? The Yankees have been in the playoffs every year since 1995, I have seen playoff baseball most of my teenage and all of my adult life so far. If the Yankees arent the most storied franchise in baseball then who is?

[askewcore]

He just like to argue. He's a douche. That, apparently, is what he's trying to prove.

Ah, look at the common sense. He's also very annoying by not making ANY valid points. I dont care if someone wants to rag the Yanks, but you need at least some kinda reasoning for it. Which, right now (unless you wanna kill A-Rod, even though his bat is startin to come around), no one has, because the Yankees are playing very good baseball.

Those Blue Jay teams were really fucking good. And thats one of the best Homerun calls ever in history. And I hate the Jays. And Canada.

The early 90s Jays team were a machine. I remember being like 10 years old and watching them own the Yankees constantly. As much as I had to hate those Jays teams, they came to win.

I was 14-15 back then . I hated baseball back then because of the Fucking Yankees . Explain to me how does winning in the past help them on the field now. They have the 2nd best record in baseball eventhough how much larger is the Yankees payroll than the Tigers . Look I can respect you guys won but I don't get the point how does that help you now .
Other than the pride, tradition and all that other shit, It doesn't, we just get to say your team sucks and haven't won shit in years. :action-sm

I love the guys who say the Yankees haven't won since 2000 but still say they buy championships....I don't get the logic. They have had the largest payroll for years now, you can't say they buy championships when they don't win.

Worry about your own team.....ohh wait, never mind, your Phillies are 12 1/2 games out of first and aren't going to win again this year. :icon_cry: (cue Price is Right music)

Jesus, i just spent the last 20 mintues reading through some of the most assinine things i have ever heard come from one person. If you start from the begining and just read all of Aizazzle's posts, you really see what a total ass he is.
As soon as I was done, the only thing i heard was the principal from Billy Madison after billy gave the rediculas answer, "Aizazzle, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.



Philly is as real sports town as they come we are as passionate as any fan base out there. Infact we are as good as NY,Boston possibly better.

Yea your so passionate that you jackass boo and almost kill santa claus in the middle of a game. Your not passionate. You just a bunch of miserable human beings who failure after failure spend more time look for a scapegoat or excuse as to why you just crumbled yet again.
As for bringing up payroll, eat a dick. Phily isnt exacly a small market franchise and if im not mistaken, you just built a new facility that should be generating more income. Its not the yankees spending that led you to over pay for Jim Thome and then kick him to the White Sox where he has been kicking ass. IT wasnt the yankees that paid 7 mil for Jon Lieber (we got wright insted:icon_mrgr .)

So take a step back, remember whos 2 games up and not 12 out, and actually look at how stupid you have made yourself look and realize that your not frustrating anyone here. Your really just giving us the oppertunity to just point and laugh at your stupidity.

amen, it's good to be 12 up on a complete failure of a franchise, where they fucking hate their all time great player, Mike Schmidt, dummies i tells ya

az is a complete looney for shitting on the yanks, passive aggressive little creep. Yanks in the AL, Phillies in Triple A, sorry pal

Cano is about to make his return. I missed the Robbie.

Enough with killing the Phillies fans, except for the obvious one, all the other ones on the 'Bag are pretty cool. Kyle seemed embarassed by az.

Thanks Pearch for pointint this out, I missed it the first time.

Philly is as real sports town as they come we are as passionate as any fan base out there. Infact we are as good as NY,Boston possibly better.

Real sports towns have teams that win something! Philly has won shit, and yes, it's all about winning. Baseball, football, hockey, Philly has nothing since '80. Fuck, Philly wins as much as the USA Olympic hockey team.

Passionate??? What? you're saying Philly roots harder for their team? who gives a fuck. Great, you guys are the best cheerleaders in all of sports. Hope that makes you happy. :icon_roll It's all about the Championships, NY and Boston piss all over Philly in that department.

Good luck with your 12 1/2 game deficit, not many teams can come back from that many games out in Aug......oh wait....I think I know of one, now let me think what team did that????

Knocks a run in to the opposite field with a broken bat, then fires the ball in so Cano can make a perfect relay and get Podsednik going for third. Lovely.

Think Wild Card, my friend.

As for what occured in this thread earlier today, people like Az are what makes me a self-loathing Philly fan. I seriously hate large portions of the fanbase because they feed into every awful stereotype of the "Philadelphia fan" the media comes up with.

Don't get me wrong, there are some great fans who actually understand the sports and can have rationale discussions that don't degenerate into "my team is more gooder than your team" and "fuck you, you suck."

But then you get the large mongoloid population of the fanbase. Philadelphia kind of has a Roosevelt Island South quality to it.

Sadly, the latter is the majority.

[Fruit Monkey]

Ok who is watching the game right now? some one record the retard moaning omg im fucking cryin over here

[rahrah]

what is with that porn stache giambi is rockin?

At least Mo is coming in though.

he has all the make up of a closer that just melts down come the postseason.

So Mo had an off night. Boston lost so its really not as painful as it could have been.

Leave him alone, its gotta be hard having a worse record than the Yankees since they've been crowing about how great they are all year.

Oh, and since we been missing two of our best hitters.

The biggest games Wagner has pitched in this year were against the Yanks, and he couldnt throw the ball over the plate. He really shouldnt be mentioned in the same sentence as Mo.

Wags has 5 Blown saves, Mo has 2.

Or ESPN's Power Index (RPI)

2 New York Yankees .534
7 New York Mets .519
8 Toronto Blue Jays .516

The Mets are so very close to the third place team in our division.

Maybe they can save face with a tough schedule, let's see what ESPN says about the Strength of Schedules.

[Dopie Opie]

Can someone please tell me why Nick Green is batting in the bottom of the 7th inning. Runner on second no outs, Cano, Posada, Bernie on the bench. So you have the guy sacrifice but we are down by three runs anyway.

Then you send up Posada and Cano to pinch hit in the 9th against Frankie Rodriguez with no momentum.
Torre is a fucking tool.

Very nice win. A-Rod played well and came through with that sac fly. RJ pitched well too. That game made me happy. Getting away from the Angels with a split is acceptable to me because those fuckers always give us problems.

[Jimmy's Dignity]

Now all we need is to take care of the O's the way the Sox have all season. They're 11-1 against them on the season. With the Sox having a day off, we can pick up a free 1/2 game too

[Perch1019]

How the fuck does Arod constantly bobble balls in those spots? The Ks with guys on base is bad enough but the extra outs he gives is just rediculus.

[Perch1019]

If Damon was on any other team than Boston and the yanks signed him, I would be pissed off other than being really annoyed. Fucking them and their fans over is what made this stomachable for me. I dont think hes a bad player but its another over paid guy on the team, another excuse for the payroll arguement and another aging player. The Andrew Jones idea is the one I would go for and maybe next season when they can finally get rid of the malcontent in Right Field, they can move Damon over and put Jones in center.


I apologize to Johnny for saying this in March. I am now a Johnny Damon fan.

Boston takes another L. GO TIGERS!

[LilJimmyRbinson]

http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=caple/offbase/060816 funny article where Jim Caple gets yelled at by Yankee Stadium

"Screw Wrigley Field! The Friendly Confines, my ass. What's so @#%$ friendly about charging fans $54 a ticket and giving them losing season after losing season? And what's so fan-friendly about all these retro-parks like Camden @#$& Yards and Safeco @#&% Field and whatever the @##&% they call that park in San Francisco these days? Skylines and fountains and fancy sandwiches and $9 microbrews are for morons and losers -- the only things real fans want to see when the walk into a stadium is world championship banners. And I got plenty of them."

That may be the only thing Jim Caple has ever written that I agree with. Too bad he wrote it as a joke. I can't stand him. He's made a career of hating the Yankees just because it's hip to do so. We all know that ESPN is already NESN2, but he takes the cake.

Down to the last couple of series of the season!

[25133WhooOoAH]

im really nervous, its gonna be one hell of a series

[LilJimmyRbinson]

Jaret Wight really threw the team under the bus today. Now they have to play a doubleheader on the road against a team coming off an off day with a bullpen that just threw basically 6 horrible innings.

Torre should have left Wright in for 120 pitches no matter how bad they were just to keep the bullpen rested for the weekend.

Yanks will still win 3 of 5 though.

I'll 2nd that one

Holy shit was that game long. 4:45...longest 9 inning game in history. I wonder whose bullpen is going to be more shot, ours or their's.

The teams combined for 41 runs and 61 hits. Twenty pitchers -- that's counting Mike Myers and Scott Proctor twice -- threw 783 pitches. In all, the teams played 8:40 minutes of baseball, from Jason Johnson's first pitch at 1:10 p.m. until Mariano Rivera covered first to retire Wily Mo Pena at 12:52 a.m.

"I don't even remember half of it," said Derek Jeter, who hit a bases-clearing double in a seven-run seventh inning to give New York an 11-10 lead.

"It feels great," Jeter said sarcastically, "especially when we have another one in a few hours."
