What Yankee blogs do you read?
BySteve at WasWatching.com is running a survey of Yankee blogs. In the saturated realm of Yankee blogs, he wants everyone to vote on which ones you the blog-reading public check out on a daily basis. So head on over to this survey, and cast your vote. Just remember who sent you!
Update 11:23 p.m.: Steve closed the poll. No more voting.
hahahahah oh god. Lets not have de-ja-vu of last night.
a coincidence you think? haha just joking, i see you have created a blog manimal, ill check it out, check out mien
ehh, just testing it out really. I will definately check yours out though.
I’ll add both of you dudes to my blog list.
thanks, ill do the smae for yours
same.
Thanks right back.
No comment.
hahahah there you are.
In order of preference, my list is:
1. River Avenue Blues
2. Replacement Level Yankees Weblog
3. NoMaas
4. LoHud
5. NYY Fans (this was not listed in the survey, however)
RAB !! , Nomaas! and RAB!!!!
So weird, I was just wondering what, if any other blogs to check out. It seems like there’s a lot that are inactive, etc.
no.l…..river ave blues..the best…..
no. 2..mlb trade rumors
this is everyday five or six times a day….
same. Those are my 2 sites that I constantly go to.
i secodn tht, or third it in this case
Fourth.
ditto.
For me, I mainly go here but during the season I’ll go to Lohud for Lineups since he gets them first, and I will also go to Chad Jennings’ and Mike Ashmore’s minor league blogs. And of course, NoMaas just for giggles.
I agree. I hit the same blogs for the same reasons.
RAB is the only place you can get a decent and civilized argument going. I’ve learned plenty about stats and what have you from just being here. As well as the minors. I really didn’t know too much aside from the big guys in the farm. But coming here really opened my eyes to a greater, larger Yankee world.
We have a game. Turner could have crawled in for a TD.
RAB
Bronx Banter
Replacement Level Yankees Weblog
NoMaas
Lohud
Oh, the irony of Steve Lombardi asking this question. Steve, most definitely not yours. I prefer a modicum of logic.
I laughed when he commented that a bunch of people didn’t say they read HIS blog when voting on the survey.
Yeah that was pretty typical of him, pretty funny. “Buh… Buh… But I created the survey. 100% of the respondents should identify as waswatching.com readers!”
Steve has a point.
Eh… I found the poll through RAB, and I bet a lot of people found it through other sites as well. I check out waswatching once in a while, usually when I’m bored and just want something else to read after I’ve exhausted my usual sites, but I’d hardly call myself a waswatching reader. I think one could reasonably stop by waswatching, see that poll, and not note in the survey that they read waswatching.
Whatever, I just found it funny that he’d post a poll and then after a few responses come in be like “I should get 100% of the responses, no fair.”
MERRY NEW YEAR!!!! A-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!!
Hope all had a joyous holidays. I sure did.
I read RAB. I do not read any other Yankee blogs, as they all suck. I only have so much time in the day and space in the brain, I don’t waste either on inferior products.
Lol. Tommie. Check out the thread about defense. It was probably the one before this one. I think it was centerfield defense and pitching. Read what was going on with LoHud.
Very interesting. As always, here at RAB, we post pretty much for the intelligent fans.
Yeah. It was pretty nuts, going back and forth at 2 in the morning. Actually it was pretty pathetic.
Oh, they’ve been clamoring for a little TSJC-love around here. (Check out the posts from last night.) You’re such a popular boy!
Happy New Year
Awww… I feel the love.

hessss BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK. Some of your fans missed you TSJC.
Yeah, I went to Florida for 10 days, tried to stay off the grid as much as possible. I missed RAB, but the beach is an awesome substitute…
Anybody else do anything fun for the holidays?
niceeeeee.I’ve been doing absolutely nothing and loving it. School starts on monday though.
I didn’t even notice he was gone.
(OMG I thought you were never going to come back11!1!!!)
heh.
Oh, when does my awesome RAB Fantasy Football League Championship Trophy arrive in the mail?
WHY THE FUCK IS MY BURRITO TAKING SO LONG TO COOK IN THIS MICROWAVE!!!11!1!1!!11
Touché.
In my defense, that was my first request, and I did wait a whole 10 minutes from being back on the board to make the request.
Seriously, though, whether it’s a trophy or a plaque, it’s all good. Just make sure it says “RAB Fantasy Football League Champion and Sexiest Man Alive” and has likenesses of both Deion Sanders and Drew Henson on it.
I will photoshop a plaque later if you really want one…
Just make sure it says “RAB Fantasy Football League Champion and Sexiest Man Alive” and has likenesses of both Deion Sanders and Drew Henson on it.
oh yeah, so basically Joey said that both Lohud and RAB are great blogs and Lohud zombies took it personal and translated it into “Lohud sucks”, then Pete made a bet with him that Lohud is better and Pete got pretty unprofessional. And this was at 2am.
Manimal how many times do I have to say this… They aren’t “Lohud Zombies” they are PeteAbe’s sheep!!1!!!!1!
eh same thing
I’ve actually only been on LoHud like 8 seconds of my life. I never investigated it to determine if it’s a good blog or a bad blog. I just stumbled onto RAB reading a prospect profile one day and stayed around and never looked elsewhere for anything better… I get all I need from Mike, Ben, Joe, and the RAB regulars.
Based only on what I hear from you guys (that the LoHuddites are moronic troglodytes), it seems to me that PeteAbe’s problem is that he doesn’t police his commenters enough to challenge their sanity when they make stupid comments. I’ve seen the RAB Big Three call out many a commenter for their B-Jobberish (including myself), and it’s always deserved. A good blog relies first on good original content and secondly on good conversation. Maybe PeteAbe needs to focus more on staying in the convo and refocusing it towards clear analysis?
Just an uninformed guess…
haha 8 seconds. I had to google what troglodytes were to fully understand your post, but yes, Pete lets them run rampant
Why would Pete care? The more hits the better. Remember he works for an actual paper
Haha, this was funny….
I left a comment on this post (I never comment there, this was the first one in months) just saying the name of my blog, and he deleted it. I got an email a little while later saying this:
Dan – you rip me at your blog and then you try and use a comment at my blog to try and promote your blog?
Really?
That’s not happening.
I wrote a post about him and Phil Hughes about a month ago, apparently he’s still upset about it–enough to purposely exclude me from his survey. My post is below, if anyone’s wondering:

haha, What a cry baby.
See, this poll is doomed from the jump. A poll at WasWatching is going to receive a lot of votes from the sort of person who reads WasWatching. I’m not sure that’s a contest you want to win.
Lets start some “How I got here” stuff.
I basically got here during the Johan Sweepstakes. I was constantly reading MLBTR when Joe was guest writing while Tim was out. I clicked a link and found my way here, haven’t left since.
You know, I don’t even remember which prospect profile it was that got me here. Might have been last year’s top 30 list, back when Alan Horne and Jeffrey Marquez were the big-pimpin surefire stars of the future…
i got here when i was reading MLBTR as well i read a lot about how “according to river ave blues” or “river ave blues thinks” at the time i was looking for a good yankees website and then i decided wth i got nothing to lose so i clikced on the link came over here and here i am. although it took me about 3-5 months to actualy make a comment, damn u guys are intimidating
I got here when I was really pissed by how bad the Yankees were doing last year so I wanted to see what people thought about the season and if they thought they would get better. So I googled “the yankees suck this year’ and a post by RAB called “Yankees Suck” appeared, I went on RAB, and I haven’t left since.
Oh man, I am really spot on with this game from my prediction, check out my blog I had the final score at Arizona 35- Atlanta 27
Dude, you have a blog too?!?!?!?
MULTIPLE INTERROBANGS?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!
yeah just started(today), I wanted a place where I could publish stuff.
INTERROBANGING IS TEH BESTEST!!?!?!?1/1/?!?!?!??!?!!??!??11?!!!?!??!one!!!!!!!???!!!exclamation!point11
If I had a time machine, after going back in time to stop Francis Ford Coppola from making The Godfather III, I would go back to last April to have the Jets draft Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie instead of Vernon Gholston.
What a coincidence that you and UWS both show up after missing for days!
HHHHHMMMMMMMM???
By the way, you missed Melmas.
Daytona was sunny.
And I never touched UWS, I swear. She said she was 18.
I celebrated Melmas. We did the Feats of Strength and everything. (Every great holiday is just a borrowed tradition from a prior pagan festival.)
I’m highly disturbed by the fact that people here keep tabs on the timing of my posts.
Ummm…. you have juggs. This makes you special.
I would tell Cashman not to sign Pavano.
RAB all the way!
After reading the blogs that Pete has put up on the site the RAB boys have so far embarrassed them all. The other ones have been unreadable n I don’t see it changing.
found this late
1 rab
2 during the season will check out pending pinstripes, no maas, chad at aaa and mike at aa
!. MLB Trade Rumors (check it 5 times a day, usually from BBerry)
2. RAB – great for news updates, and good, friendly debates in comments, unlike..
3. Lohud – Best of the beat writers’ blogs, yet 3/4 of the commentors are idiots.
4. Prid of the Yankees – Dave and Aziz rocked. Will miss them!
5. It Is High – The funniest blog on the Web
