Game 131: We do not support teams that use child labor
By
If you’re thinking sweep, you’re thinking too far ahead. We play today, we win today, das it.
1. Damon, CF
2. Jeter, SS
3. Abreu, RF
4. A-Rod, 3B
5. Giambi, 1B
6. Nady, LF
7. Matsui, DH
8. Cano, 2B
9. Molina, C
And on the mound, Big Game Pettitte.
Notes: Instant replay starts Thursday, which is kinda dumb. Test it in the AzFL first or something, this is only going to make the games longer … the Yanks are 19-9 against the Sox in the second half since 2005 … Tim Wakefield hasn’t pitched since August 6th, no minor league rehab games or anything … Jason Giambi just bought two wine cellars in his apartment building at 78th St. and 3rd. The two rooms set him back $5000 each …
Best. Game Title. Ever.
Probably the best I’ve ever seen
hey, how have our numbers against LHP changed in contrast since the nady trade?
BTW, here’s a better Jason Giambi (and Joba Chamberlain) sidepiece:
IT would be tough for average Joes to beat a couple of Yankees at baseball, but slamming them in a game of beer pong was no sweat. Last week, Jason Giambi and Joba Chamberlain were celebrating their win against the Kansas City Royals at Southern Hospitality, on Second Avenue, when a table of fans challenged them to a game of the college drinking sport. Our spy said, “The fans gave them a beating. Toward the end Chamberlain and Giambi got really competi tive, but it wasn’t enough.”

i admit, while i wont miss his inconsistent production and non-protection of ARod next season, i will definitely miss these types of stories about him.
If they’d been playing Jack Daniels pong, Joba and the Re-Stacher woulda slaughtered them.
LOL @ title
peter abraham says that the yankees didnt sign the Venezuelan centerfielder, lianora.
The Yanks also didn’t sign me, and I don’t think we’re planning a post about that one either.
You see? Everyone was flipping out in DotF about this kid last night, and I kept telling you not to get too worked up over it. Don’t ever believe any “too good to be true” scouting report, or believe any IFA’s even signed until his name pops up in a box score.
Like Montero?
Ah, the difference there is there was several reputable sources cited Montero’s signing. The only info about this Venezuelan kid came from a poster at the NYYFans forum, who didn’t even cite a source.
The branch of Scout.com that draws your ire also has it posted.
Isn’t it also premature to believe the signing isn’t going down at all? I mean, couldn’t they be waiting until he officially turns 16 or just that he hasn’t been offcially signed yet so Cashman does not want to speak on it?
Hey the job for the yanks is to at least get 2 out of 3.
I don’t know whats come up into people that the yanks have to sweep. Sweeps are great but come on they don’t have too.
Just play bone consistent inning, then one consistent game and one consistent series and one consistent streak. You build things guys one brick at a time. Even the crumbs count on a cake too.
2 out of 3 only gives us 1 game in the standings, sweep gives us 3. Need the sweep realistically to have a chance. Plus we need to gain on Twins/Sox
but lets face it, the chances of sweeping the sox are unlikely, thus you set yourself up for dissapointment. I’ll love a sweep but I am not gonna say it’s due or die.
One game at a time. Don’t mention the word sweep until they’ve won the first too.
but you just mentioned it yourself!
Who are you, the Knights Who Say Ni?
I was watching this documentary on HBO and it was about all these famous blk individuals one by one talking about their lives and the history of blks and etc.
And then Chris Rock came up and he was talking about baseball. And he said even though Jackie Robinson entered the MLB, segregation in baseball didn’t really ended until the 70’s.
He made a very funny and excellent point, in that segregation in baseball wasn’t over until the 70’s when you start having black baseball players who suck. That was really funny but also somewhat true.
So Rock’s point is that the U.S. (and Canada) are better nations for having Tony Womack in baseball?
If that’s the case, Sabermetricians are closet racists for criticizing Womack!!!!
The point he’s trying to make is that during the 40’s, 50’s, and 60’s, as a blk man, you pretty much have to be a HOFer to be in Majors. I assime they were plenty of sucky players but they weren’t blk.
Now Tony Wonmack has a chance lol. He does make a point.
I got the joke, but I wanted to segue into the Sabermetricians-are-racists-for-criticizing-Womack joke….
my bad lol.
Kinda like how they say that you know us black people have officially made it in America now that we have black serial killers…
Couldn’t one of you guys make a little extra room and give Big G some wine space?
i love tonights matchup ya know.. wake might be rusty.. god damnit i love the fucken yankees.. im so stoked for this
Don’t have to sweep, but we have to win this series. 4 down with 29 to go is possibly doable, 6 down with 29 to go is very daunting.
Totally agree…the White Sox/Twins thing isn’t as daunting as it sounds. Chances are that one of them (the Twins) won’t play too great down the stretch. If we’re winning 3/4 of our games, we’ll catch them by mid September.
We should blast Wakefield tonight, but I think tomorrow will be tough with Ponson. The equalizer in that game is Byrd, but I think Girardi shouldve skipped Ponson, pitched Mussina tomorrow and Pavano on Thursday. Pavano is a better overall pitcher than Ponson and certainly a better big game pitcher than Ponson. If you thrust Ponson into a big game, you get the Sunday night game at Fenway. The Yanks should really sweep this series if they want to catch Boston because the Sox have the decided advantage in remaining schedule.
the Sox have the decided advantage in remaining schedule
Way to repeat what Michael Kay just said on the pregame.
It was a good line … I had to do it
nothing Kay says is good.
I’m actually a Kay fan. I guess I’m in the minority, but I really cant understand why alot of people dont like him
I’m allergic to douchebaggery.
Pavano is a total crapshoot…He’s pitched 5 innings above AA since having Tommy John surgery.
And Ponson is crap. I’ll take a crapshoot over crap every time
i hate pedroia
This ump just stole two strikes from Pettite. Cunt!
Good to see we’ll be having a nice tight strike zone tonight. As long as it’s consistent…
oh please. watch the strike calls wakefield’s gonna get throwing his junkball 3-4 ft off the plate. i can already see myself throwing the tv out the window.
Amen. The umps always give the opposition the calls the Yanks dont get. The Yanks havent had any luck this year
i dont just mean the opposition though. wakefield’s knuckleball is never anywhere near the strike zone and he gets the call because he really cant throw anything over the plate.
don’t look at Youkilis Pettite, your gonna lose your focus.
come on pettitte
This is total bullshit. He was getting those calls against Ellsbury
Interesting strike zone tonight.
finally.
He had to throw all these extra pitches because of this asshole. I hope he does the same thing to Timmy.
the yankees also have to be smart to take some pitches and make him work, too.
well tahts not happening
Whatever the Yankees do is not enough when an umpire wants to fuck us
If there was one pitcher that would have trouble throwing strikes vs this ump its wakefield.
it figures that damon goes up an hacks instead of being cautions with the tiny strikezone.
which is more likey to happen, being struck by lighting, or Wakefield blowing a fastball by you when as the hitter you know it’s coming?
We really should DFA Damon, he obviously can’t help this team.
…………………..?
I guess you weren’t around in April. Inside joke.
atta boy Johnny!
Damon.
That’s what we needed. Great at-bat by Damon. Spoiling the ugly pitches and then hooking the ball just fair. 1-0 nice
Yes!
he’s DA-MAN!
Wakefield’s smile just now: “Oh, so that’s how it feels.”
I thought that was going to bloop over PEDroia. But Ill take a hr anyday.
You know, as entertaining as it is to have a knuckleballer in MLB, I’m certainly glad he’s not a Yankee. It has to be absolutely nerve-wracking to watch someone like Wakefield pitch for your team, since you know anyone can hammer it.
I actually like throwing knuckle balls to my bro in the back yard. He cant hit em
It hurts your knuckles after a while.
You actually throw it with the nails of your middle and ring fingers. I learned how to throw one from watching the Yankees blast Wakefield all these years
I love when Sterling says “It’s a Johnny Rocket!”
The Sox have two secondbasemen in the middle of the infield.
Why are the Yanks hacking right now? Didn’t they see the strikezone for pettitte?
what the fuck was that?
I don’t know if I’m just being a yankee fan but man these umps are KILLING me.
I think we all have a legitimate beef here. It seems the Yanks NEVER get any calls their way. If there was any stat for upire fuck ups, I’m sure it will back me up.
This umpire is clueless. I hope someone throws a bottle at him
Why is Jacoby Ellsbury in RF? Wouldn’t you want your speedier, rangier outfielder in the Yankee Stadium LF?
Then again, if Jason Bay can’t play RF, he can’t play RF.
I don’t see the big deal about moving LF and RF. CF is different in the way that you have privleges over the LF and RF but theres no major differences.
It has to be my biased eyes, but it really looked like Wakefield was getting more generous calls than Andy. Ick.
hey, Mike/RAB crew- random question. have you ever thought about having a comments chat-format during a game like you did the other day? instead of a Q&A, and instead of having everyone refresh their screen to catch up on new comments, etc, have a running chat going on? is that even possible?
We’ll look into it.
it would def make RAB that much more gooder.
I was thinking about starting a Skype chat. Its really easy to do and skype is easy to sign up for.
Thank you!
This ump is awful. I’m glad we got that pitch but thats the exact same thing he was calling a ball last inning…
Is it just me or is Bobby Abreu a better outfielder without Melky…
Man Bailey hit a Bullet pass A-Rod.
Ouch
Everyone add me on skype
ID:Manimal529
i have no clue what skype is.
skype is a voip service with a great group chat interface. We could use AIM, MSN, Yahoo whatever, its just skype is easier. http://www.skype.com
Lame…
Murphy’s Law
Two swinging bunts for base hits? Oy vey.
This is total fuckin bullshit
Wow, I’m so fucking pissed about that.
That fucking run should of not counted.
wow. Pettitte can’t catch a break.
Bull shit.
If we wind up losing this game I’m going to look at the top of the 2nd. Unbelievable
bad luck for Pettitte.
That last inning (and Jason Giambi’s ensuing out) proved that NoMass wasn’t lying: http://www.nomaas.org/images/bostonjesus.jpg
I saw that one, that one was pretty funny.
Flash is right. I think the Yanks should be well in front by the 7th. He’s getting his pitches up. Thats if the Yanks can hit well with RISP. Good luck
Oh Jesus
This ump is a piece o’ shit.
squeezing pettitte and giving wakefield calls off the plate
you seem surprised?
It seems the media arent the only ones who like to give the Red Sox head
A safe assumption: Some one is getting ejected.
not enough grit for Lowrie to catch that ball.
A Jose Molina RBI base-hit is equivalent to two of those “hits” Boston had last half-inning.
What the fuck I say?
Hava Molina!
Atta boy molina!!!
Nice 2 out rally. Keep it goin and turn over the lineup
How many times you guys say “STFU Kay” when you watch a yankee game?
10-15
My head hurts trying to quantify it.
ive got the game muted.
I like to pretend that the team has a policy of hiring announcers with recent severe head injuries as part of their charitable work giving back to the community. That way, instead of being annoyed by Kay’s inanities, you feel proud of the plucky little accident-induced moron for trying.
It helps.
Matsui, Cano, and Molina… nice little rally.
any chance we see these guys move up in the order?
Did I just see a two out hit with a RISP? By Molina?
But Pudge is a future Hall of Famer!!!!
I wonder if he still would be without the ‘roids. Maybe with all the gold gloves
got that run back.
and having Manny helps also.
Mo Vaugh was also on steroids
damn.
Yikes. Pettitte’s pitch count is yucky. 50 pitches in 2+ innings. Can the Yanks bullpen afford another short outing by a starter?
These umpires are KILLING me. Andy has no choice but to throw it down the middle. It doesn’t help that hes missing the locations badly.
I want to kill those Red Sux fans who are chanting Youk. And I hope Joba drills that motherfucker in his bald head.
Grow up.
Is Giese elgible to pitch yet?
where the hell was Jeter playing?
No guys, Jeter has no range.
Bingo.
this is gross
BULLSHIT
damn andy needs to buckle down!
DP ball needed here.
nice.
Fuck pettite, his shit doesnt fool anyone anymore
Over-react much?
this is like the 4th time this year in a critical situation that hes throwing junk at the corners and getting beat. I’ve felt this for a while.
Yeah so fuck that guy, he’s never done anything for the Yankees.
oh he has. 6 years ago. hes not fooling hitters anymore.
The point is that, frankly, it’s stupid to say “fuck Pettitte.”
im talking about now.
No shit.
A) Maybe I’m putting words in your mouth, but I’d say that every inning of every Yankee game to a passionate Yankee fan such as yourself is a “critical situation”, so I’m going to rewrite your statement to:
“this is like the 4th time this year that hes throwing junk at the corners and getting beat.”
B) He’s had 27 starts this year, 28 tonight, so if this is his 4th time throwing junk and getting beat, it sort of implies that the other 24 times, he’s been pretty good. 24 good and 4 bad is excellent, IMO.
but lets sign him up for another year!
Dude three bleeders and all of a sudden his shit doesnt fool anybody anymore. Thats a tad bit reactionary no?
Its called bad luck
you make your luck in baseball
Really? Most of the game is luck
Yeah, totally. Jorge made his shoulder pop, CMW made his foot break, the Yankees made Gerrit Cole choose UCLA, Jim Leyland made his pitchers throw wild pitches, Moises Alou made Steve Bartman reach for that ball, Brian Cashman made Carl Pavano get injured, Bryce Florie made himself hit himself in the face with a baseball, Tony Tarasco made Jeffrey Maier lean over the wall, Ron Gant made Ken Hrbek yank his leg off the bag, Bill Buckner made the ball go through his legs, the Yankees made John Elway better at football, Josh Gibson made himself never play in the majors, The Pirates made Roberto Clemente die, Lou Gehrig made himself die, Ray Chapman made himself die.
You make your own fucking luck in baseball, damnit.
No Lowell, No Drew, a fuckin rookie at 1b, Cash at C, Ellsbury and Crisp in the OF. No way you can expect a dominating outing by Pettitte against that lineup….
I wouldn’t mind seeing Varitek at catcher.
I have a strange feeling this game will be on Yankees Classics
that means a win right.
Put it this way: it wont end 3-2 Red Sux
We should activate Joba off the DL for one pitch to bean Youkilis in the head
Bill, everyone knows you never go full retard. Take a deep breath.
I was joking idiot. But dont you wish that happened? I sure do
That Jeter play is a good example of why Jeter can’t be our starting shortstop very much longer…
Ya no command tonight. Ump squeezing Andy isn’t helping either.
Andy HAS his command. Umpire is just a cunt
Jeter was playing him to pull and was moving to his right because the pitch was suppose to be a cutter in. The pitch wasn’t where it was suppose to be.
that’s a ball a good defensive SS make.
What the hell is wrong with you, rational thought has no place here.
That ball bounced like 1,000 times. Slowly.
why would they swing at a 1-0 pitch, makes no fucking sense this ump is terrible and they are swinging in hitters counts.
Til this day I still love Soriano.
I wish we couldve traded Navarro and ALL of our prospects for ARod instead of trading Soriano. I love him too
yea he never walk, and suck as a 2b but man can he hit.
I think he was underrated as a 2B
He was one of the worst defensive 2b in the league, if not the worst.
Why?
We should also throw at Pedroia one of these days
Make that today
It’s sure good to be Tiger Woods.
that might have been the clutchiest DP ive ever seen hit.
Either they love getting me mad or they just love losing.
Ugh Arod..
Pettitte is 16-7, 3.54 in 31 career games against the Red Sox, 185.2 innings. He is 3-2, 5.20 in nine games against the Red Sox since he came back to the Yankees last season.
Theyre still pitching Wakefield and their bullpen sucks
I know the answer its Yaz
Hey Kay, check up Jeter with the DP balls.
wow … 8 DPs in his last 19 games … way to step UP alex … like this isn’t the time of the season we need you the most …
sigh.
This could be the most lopsided umpiring Ive ever seen. I really hope he gets a really bad hernia
we love walking the nine hitter
Wow this ump is a jackass he’s really pissing me off
blue is back to squeezing pettite … WTF???
Ump is terrible.
Where’s those two numb nuts who ran onto the field in Kansas City and tried to fight that first base umpire? We sure need ‘em.
That was in Chicago.
The Ligue family: Proof positive that inbreeding still happens in America.
http://www.umpbump.com/press/w...../thugs.jpg
He’s established a tight zone … for Andy Pettitte
Who is the fuck is the Ump Ray Charles.
No its Stevie Wonder
more like terry francona. i hope this douchebag ump meets a couple of bleacher creatures out in the bronx after the game.
Seriously, Girardi better blow a gasket by the end of the night. This strike zone is fucking embarassing.
I really want to shoot him in the face
honestly dude you couldnt sound like more of an ass right now
I know. I get into it
this ump is ass
I wish they had robot umps.
i for one welcome our roboump overlords …
They would be programed not to be a turd
Michael Kay saying “applicable” twice in the same sentence has been the highlight of my day.
please elaborate.
He just says it funny, like you can hear his double chin flap as he’s enunciating.
gotcha.
Thats really mean, but funny
well … *that* pitch went in andy’s favor …
Yeah, the ump probably thinks they’re even now.
good job Pettitte.
Wow, Pettitte has unbelievable self control. I would be tempted to puch that turd in the face
garcia 5 ip 1er 9k’s
hey Mike,
if garcia keeps this up will he crack the top 10?
No, he needs to stay healthy for more than a month at time first.
I should be inducted into the Irish-American Hall of Fame
too much top spin on that ball Giambi hit.
Almost X.
miss two Homers.
make it three.
You see Jason Bay, no bitch ass, seeing-eye singles for X(BH).
Could you have worse luck?
Yanks are hitting those balls far. Sooner or later one will go out…
how abt nady steals a base, shouldnt be too hard
Michael Kay with the John Sterling-esque fly-out call.
This is REALLY frustrating
nice fucking camera. I thought it was gone.
I guess the strike zone is beginning to even out for the Yanks.
Right there is the worst thing about Michael Kay: every time the ball goes past 250 feet: that ball IS DEEP TO RIGHT FIELD! BACK GOES ELLSBURY! catches it 40 feet in front of the wall….It’s like part of your job is to help those of us that aren’t at the stadium, not prepare to provide a soundbite for highlight shows or possible replays of the game.
3-2 after 4, yanks are in good shape.
things that sound dirty but aren’t:
“these lefties can drop some head …”
ha did you catch the one in the first inning? Kevin Cash is receiving well tonight.
Whew…
Poor Papi. Gotta start stackin’ a bit more my friend.
sssssshhhhhh. he’s always smiling and happy so ignore the late career bloom and the fact that his body is beginning to break down. how dare you make the suggestion…..
Remind you of any catchers that are currently out injured?
I say that in jest, but Ortiz’s numbers in Minnesota suggested there was a lot of untapped potential there that could be unleashed with increased playing time. He didn’t start regularly in Boston until about June in his first season after he performed well and earned the job.
I could see the suggestion being valid if he was cut well or something, but clearly he’s not. He’s chubby (which is more likely the cause of his knee issues) and strong. And yes, very happy.
evens out.
wow i would have flipped if ortiz got a hr when the Yanks hit 3 almost homers. Thank god it was caught
Who the fuck is manning that camera? A 5-year-old?
Did Al Leiter just accuse Youkilis of Cadillacin’?
I knew the street felt a bit icy this afternoon.
I think he got confused between two different trains of thought.
I want this umpire to have a kidney stone.
FACT: there are no african american or latino “gamers” in MLB
Nope, that’s one of the prerequisites of scrappiness: being white.
And it greatly helps to have a beard. Not one of them gerd dern thin uns like thum Mexicans have though.
and short and ugly which really helps. Plus, under any circumstances you can’t have alot of talent.
I see your point… but… Juan Pierre.
Pierre’s not a gamer, he’s a natural athlete.
Incontrovertible, papal-bull endorsed facts of the universe:
Black guys: never gamers.
White guys: never athletes.
For example: Martin Luther King Jr was able to singlehandedly end racism through his innate athleticism. Jesus, on the other hand, who was white, saved the world because he’s a gamer.
Very nice
I giggled out loud by mistake while reading that.

7. Be short
He really is one ugly motherfucker.
That’s one of the reasons why Joba should bean him
You’re embarrassing.
you gotta get Crips out.
fuck.
Erg, these fucking two out hits.
Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.Fuck the Red Sox.
lowrie was clearly out…
He’s out.
Its too bad the Red Sox arent injured and banged up like the Yankees….
Typical bad call. Sometimes I wonder if Bud Selig’s hatred of the Yankees is conveyed to the umps. Such bullshit
crisp stole on what wasn’t a crisp throw
This is a MUST win for the Yankees. You cant count on Ponson for anything, and Pettitte is their best big game pitcher
they are letting this HP umpire get in their heads. not good.
Fuck this shit.
another missed call…and FUCK GIAMBI!!!
Are you serious? This game is rigged.
Are you insinuating that the first base ump got the call wrong?
Great.
Reminiscent of Chuck Knobloch
Very late to this whats going on working a 12 hour day and this is the first time i’ve been able to get on a computer ?
Really, Giambi, really?
Wakefield is still on the mound and Boston’s bullpen behind Jonathan Papelbon is nothing to be scared of.
Yea gotta keep calm.
6-2 is 6-2. I don’t know about your sabermetric stats but either way its 4 runs against a very good team with a offense swinging at everything headed their way. Doesn’t look good.
Game’s not even half over yet.
Unfortunately you just proved how bad Pettite did.
P-E-T-T-I-T-T-E
Four runs against a guy who has career ERA of over 5.00 against us. Four runs against a guy who was a couple feet short of giving up three HR’s.
This Pettitte start should have an asterik
You can’t blame pettitte for any of this. He was squeezed and the Yanks made zero plays behind him. Not to mention half of the Red Sox hits were in the infield.
Pettite’s start was not what you need out of your supposed best pitcher in a huge opening game of a series you must have. He failed to show up today. Bottom line.
Amen. I hope the umpires feel ashamed for their fuck ups, but they probably wont cuz they hate the Yanks. I hope all of those umps contract herpes from each other
Have any of you guys seen a worse officiated Yankee game?
this is so bad man
Great play, but FUCK!
Aight baby, time to turn this shit up a notch. Give ‘em hell.
lowrie was out
tim donaghy is that you?
How the fuck are we gonna lose this game
Is the ump really that bad ? like I said I’m still at work and just got on a computer
no. inconsistent sure, but people love to play it up as if the world is really against the yankees.
yea i got that much ha, thanks
You guys think the cops have kept the gay jokes about Jacoby Ellsbury by the Bleacher Creatures to a minimum?
Lets go Damon get it started.
YESSSSSSS
Johnny!
Same place for Damon. A little late tho…6-3.
? It’s the fifth inning, you maroon.
at least Johnny came to play!
We really should DFA Damon, he clearly can’t help this team.
It figures that Damon shows up, he is the ex redsock.
That is the softest cheer I ever heard at the stadium
i love the yanks but damn if they dont win tonight its gonna be horrible — nice shot damon and nice jeter
Lets go
Like I said, the guy with a %.00+ ERA against us is on the mound.
*5.00.
Thats not a great thing for the yankees. They struggle against bad pitching.
But the 5.00 era is against us, so that makes it a great thing for the yankees
Okay Jeter.
Walk, bloop and a blast away. It ain’t over til David Ortiz sings, fellas.
lol.
For those of you looking for a humorous diversion, might I suggest Hardball Made Easy starring Scrappy Ron Stilanovich..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDZPN0mjaAA
OK ARod its your turn now.
C’mon A-Rod!
The singles virus spreads fast.
Hit a Homer A-Rod.
Michael Kay, you say the same shit every time Tim Wakefield pitches a game. Shut yo ass up.
arod just a fucking base knock PLEASE
Always comes down to Arod doesn’t it?
It’s the fifth inning.
Earn your money please nO dp
Kevin Cash, you are not Jose Molina, chill the fuck out.
wow a-rod has got to come through here. This is a huge at-bat
looks like jeer tried to ask youk what the capital of tailland was
Shocking.
omg fuck u alex
reggie is looking at this team and thinking what the hell are these kids doing
Fuck you Boo Birds.
THe BLACK HOLE STRIKES AGAIN !!!!!!
I wish we faced Wakefield every day…
Why the fuck is everyone pull happy, i=I know its 64 mph but chill.
thata girl arod
Man, for a guy that’s the best player in the game it sure seems like he doesn’t inspire confidence like a player of his ability should when you watch him hit.
Don’t you have an interview to conduct or something?
Seriously though. Don’t you as a fan almost feel like you expect him to fail in those spots?
The only player I expected to fail this year is Melky. He didn’t let me down.
Sox are close to acquiring Kotsay. Don’t think Coco’s gonna be too happy about that.
http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/.....id=3554901
So where’s all the “FUCK YOU!1!111!1″ comments for Jason Giambi?
He isn’t the supposed best player to ever play the game.
It really is true. Unfair but true. Money shouldnt really dictate how you criticize or get frustrated by a player cause lets face it, it aint our money and more power to him for being able to make as much money as he does. But it does make it that much more frustrating when he continues to struggle in these type of situations this season.
Giambi ain’t exactly a bargain, and has had seasons that weren’t even worth half of what he was being paid, yet still gets less shit than A-Rod. And how about the fact that the huge contract paid to Giambi was in part fueled by roids? Still less shit than A-Rod. I just don’t get it.
Also doesnt hurt that Giambi is media-friendly and portrays himself in interviews as a funny guy who is easy to root for despite the steroids stuff.
What does it say for Irish-Americans that John Flaherty is in their HOF?
That being sober is all you need to do to qualify.
Staying sober would put you in the Irish Hall of Shame
Then how do you explain them also voting in Sean Casey?
Top of the morning to you, on this gray and drizzly St. Patrick’s day, where today everybody is feeling a little bit Irish, except of course for the Gays and the Italians.
flaherty says some funny shit 2 for 14 right around my career ba
