Game 72: Off The Schnide
ByI don’t know about you guys, but when Alex Rodriguez lined that single into center to drive in two runs in the sixth yesterday, it felt like a tremendous weight came off my shoulders as I exhaled with relief. Cervelli’s homer was nice, don’t get me wrong, but there was much more on the line for Alex in that inning. Does that make sense? Eh, whatever. Anway, if that’s what it felt like for me, I can only imagine what it felt like for A-Rod and the rest of team.
Was Joe Girardi’s ejection and the ensuing rally enough to spark the team out of it’s offensive malaise? Everyone was all smiles when Mariano Rivera lined out to end the ninth, so maybe the team is feeling good about themselves and are ready to go on a little run. We can only hope.
Here’s the starting nine. Robbie Cano was originally slated to play and bat fifth as usual, but there was a change and now Ransom’s at second. Maybe Cody had a closed door meeting with Girardi and Cash and talked his way into the lineup? (I keed, I keed)
Jeter, SS
Damon, LF
Teixeira, 1B
A-Rod, 3B
Posada, C
Swisher, RF
Gardner, CF – ride the hot hand baby
Ransom, 2B
Andy Pettitte, SP

I agree completely about Alex; hes going to get hot sooner or later, and its gonna be niiiice
A-Rod baby!
We’re going to see Cody Ransom again? Wow I thought when he got injured I’d never have to see him again…
R.I.P.

crazy sad stuff, 50 is so young to go
Im shocked. Again, majority of us grew up with the guy. I mean just a huge lost. R.I.P. Michael Jackson, one of the great entertainers of all time.
sorry, but all i see is a child molester
What are the odds that Farrah And Michael would die on the same day?
Tough day to be an icon of the 70′s or 80′s.
Looks like the Magic found a Hedo Turkoglu replacement.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/.....id=4287197
Heh, time to bring Vinsanity home, I guess…that team’s gonna miss the hell out of Courtney Lee, though.
Agreed. I don’t think the difference between Lee and Vince is big enough to justify all that extra money.
Vince is making 16.3, 17.3, and 18M the next three years.
Yeah thats alot of mullah. I guess they felt hey, I rather spend 17 Mil on Vince, than spend 10-12 Mil on Hedo.
It was the length of the deals that was the deciding factor. You would rather overspend for Vince over 2 years, then have to give Hedo a 5 or 6 year deal. I’m sure Hedo is looking for a long deal. Orlando did not want to lock themselves into that lineup for the forseeable future. They wanted the flexibility. That is the way I see it.
Exactly, especially since it’s been a while since Vince had to play nice with a star actually bigger than his own. Kicking it around with J-Kidd and Richard Jefferson doesn’t exactly prepare him for trying to compete with Dwight and Jameer in a popularity contest he’ll never win, even if he’s going off for 25-10 every night.
Eh. I guess we’ll see, but I’m not sold on this one.
I guess Cleveland traded for a Que and the Magic figured they should trade for a Que as well.
I guess.
Who would be more valuable to their new team, VC or Shaq?
Probably Shaq. The upside of him over Ilgauskas is way bigger than the upgrade of VC over Lee.
I agree. I still think the Cavs need one more player.
I think Vince will have a bigger impact. Without Hedo, the Magic were in desperate need of wing scoring.
Nets get a great young player in Courtney Lee.
How did Lee get so overrated. This is a case of everyone calling someone underrated, until they become overrated. Lee is OK, but Vince will definitely be better than Lee for the next two years. And not only slightly better, considerably better.
My calculation has Vince replacing not just Lee, but Lee AND Turkoglu.
Sorry for the confusion.
Was there ever any word on what the deal was with the Melky/Swish situation last night?
Abraham reported that Melky has the flu.
Hey Mike, Kelvin DeLeon went deep today. He’s hitting .667. Is there any chance that the Yanks call him up to SI?
Way too soon. Short season leagues started, what, three days ago?
…and Melvin picked up another 2 inning save today, only 3 strikeouts though. YAWN
off-topic, however, RIP Michael Jackson
I could have sworn that its spelled “Schnide”
OK, this site agrees, and has a reasonable origin of the phrase to go with it.

Anyone here ever play Gin Rummy? I haven’t, so I have no idea how these two connect.
Those farkakteh Yiddish Jews strike again!
It is, I fail at spelling.
About all this ejection stuff, its seems silly to make any direct connection between the two, but it does sure seem to work.
For a team that hyper-aware about its own shortcomings/failings, its probably a great way to change the subject. Create an enemy for the team to focus its frustrations on.

You have shamed us all, Steve.
I’m good that way.
I believe it’s actually “schneid”. Short for schneider

Am I the only one a little disappointed that it was Pettitte’s turn in the rotation and not AJ’s?
A Burnett-Lowe matchup would have been interesting theater. Free Agent Referendum Bowl I.
So how do ppl want to see this nba draft shake out tonight? Personally I don’t think Curry will be an impact player in the NBA
The fact that Curry can shoot, but isn’t as slow or as awful as J.J. Redick, practically guarantees he’ll have an impact. His comp is Mo Williams, IMO.
My master list of desired picks at 8 is still, in order:
Tyreke Evans
Steph Curry
Brandon Jennings
Jrue Holiday
Jordan Hill
Johnny Flynn
Earl Clark
Demar Derozan
Gerald Henderson
I want no part of Rubio, Thabeet, or Harden.
Not a huge Curry fan but he’s a much better prospect than Reddick was. Plus, while Curry isn’t the greatest defender in the world, he’s much better in that spot than Reddick.
I think Holiday fits the Knicks the best. Clark would also fit the knicks as well under D’Antoni system. A SF with point guard skills who can shoot and is athletic and play multiple positions. D’Antoni love Diaw, so Clark could be Diaw 2.0.
My irrational hope is that DeJuan Blair’s knees scare everyone off and he slides to us at #29.
Blair wouldn’t be a bad pick at 29.
There’s reports that Jennings might slide out of of the top 20.
This draft is gonna be nuts.
Wildcards galore.
Apparently, rather than buy the #28 pick from the Timberwolves, the Knicks bought the #29 pick from the Lakers.
Ford has us taking Toney Douglas with the pick. The AP report that ESPN used says we’re looking at Jack McClintock.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/.....id=4285133
I saw on the ny dailynews that the knicks might draft Gerald Henderson.
He’s a bit of a reach at 8, but he’s a quality player. He won’t be bad, but I can’t foresee a scenario where there’s not someone still better on the board when we’re on the clock.
About all this ejection stuff, its seems silly to make any direct connection between the two, but it does sure seem to work.
For a team that hyper-aware about its own shortcomings/failings, its probably a great way to change the subject. Create an enemy for the team to focus its frustrations on.
Hah, Jeff Bennett broke his hand punching a door after allowing that hit to A-Rod yesterday. At least he was smart enough not to use his pitching hand.

Hey, worked for Kevin Brown.
Or not.
Holy crap moly, Jeff Goldblum died too?
http://foxyurl.com/7pX
Holy crap.
He was dating “Alex” from LOST.
They come in 3s, maaaaan.

Wait, I died in a plane crash? And they told me no one would ever know about those movies. It was only once and I needed the money, I swears it.
Yup.

Walks and hits aren’t bad, but he’s been getting killed by the long ball.
hughes for a inning tonight?
No, they said they’re holding him back in case CC’s start is cut short tomorrow.
All right. Thanks.
Offense!!! Early offense!!!
Nice start for the Yankees, 2 ABs, 2 base hits.
Here’s hoping the Yankees make me look good for benching Derek Lowe tonight in my fantasy team.
Is it possible the 29th pick may be used as a trading chip to move up. I think a future knick deal is possible.
Meh, I doubt it.
YOU SUCK TESHERA!!!!
Tex grounds to a DP, 1-0 Yankees.
Wow a fast run.
Nothing to deflate a big inning like a GIDP.
Well that helps!! lol
UNCLUTCH!!!!
damn
Steep decline!!!
O;ney’s piece today was ridiculous
I used to like Buster, but he has really come down with the ESPN sickness recently.
Handsome Ransom
YES!!!!!!! ALEX IS BACK!!!!
BANGWAGON
GOOOOOOONE A-rod hits a 2 run HR to deep CF!
solo shot, but w/e
Is that A-Rod?
you called it Mike. The weight might be off
FUCK YEA BOY!
That was no cheapie either. Dead center, big park, groundball pitcher.
needs a day off and needs to start taking HGH
MY bad, it was a Solo HR.
I thought the same thing.
You can see Nick Swisher’s charisma from space.
I thought A-Rod was finish.
AN AAAAAA BOMB! FROM AAA ROD!
man i jumped off my couch!
Handsome Cody Ransom with a bases juiced…
A hit with risp!!!! LOL Of course Ransom’s 1st ab since coming back is with the bases loaded and 2 outs.
Haha Boston! How’s that OMFG WE HAVE DEPTH!!!!! working out?
Smoltz struggling early int he first inning. Nats winning 1-0, bases loaded with 1 out.
a-rod is BACK BABY!
Melky Mesa goes yard.
2 runs, 5 hits for the Yankees this inning.
Ransom just missed that foul, great inning none the less.
I think that went over the bag. Fair ball.
ha Ransom picks up where he left off.
Unfortunately homeruns hit in the 1st-3rd innings don’t count. Especially not for Arod.
That homer wasn’t with RISP.
Worthless.
No RBI’s with RISP today!!!!
I just love the comments you get on the internet. Michael Jackson dies, and people write this-
Ricky Pope: “Bye Bye you scumbag. Have a nice time in hell.”
Slammer: “We lost two Obama supporters Today. GOOD !!”
Horse Name Sue: “Wow…so young. He must have killed himself.”
Nick Gerz Syracuse, NY: “Another accused pedophile bites the dust. Addios circus freak. What does Michael Jackson and Wal Mart have in common? They both have little boys pants half off.”
http://www.topix.com/who/micha.....ckson-dies
Now that last one is really offensive to me, he misspelled ‘Adios’.
The extra D was for the extra douchebaggery.
Could we wait a nanosecond for this stuff? I guess not.
Im only 29 but I love Michael Jackson’s solo stuff from the 80′s and early 90′s. Have a bunch of songs from him in my iPod. It was unfortunate how all the other stuff overshadowed how great an artist he was.
I gotta tell ya, I just got in from fishing so I just heard. One person I have zero sorrow for is Michael Jackson and those similar. If a child in my familiy “visited” his theme park he would’ve been gone a long time ago.
I can’t wait for the Clippers to draft Hasheem Thabeet at #1.
WHAAAAAA?!?!?!??!?!?
Nah I think they r goin to take Tyler Hansbrough.
Heh.
That would be the funniest sports moment ever.
Thabeet has bust written all over him. He was completed destroyed when he played any reasonably skilled center.
I can see him being the second coming of Sean Bradley.
Nah, he’ll be better than Sean Bradley.
He’ll at least be as good as Steven Hunter.
Smoltz has a higher ERA than Wang right now.
Smoltz getting smoked in Washington.
4 runs, 4 hits, 1 walk after 1 inning.
Smoltz looking pretty strong tonight… only 4 runs in the first inning.
I read MLB.com and it said Nats lead 4-0 over Sox. Tell me that’s true PLEEEEEEEASE!
http://www.google.com
(couldn’t resist)
Yes that is the truth. It is a good thing you asked here though to verify. Those filthy liars over at MLB.com do whatever they can to publish incorrect box scores and what not. One common myth generated by them is there was a player named Barry Bonds. He is in fact a collection of made up stats.
Ty Cobb was real, though, and he did stab a guy.
Cmon ANdy!!!! You have no excuses today…this is NOT YSIII
But it’s the HOMER HAVEN that’s the problem!!! That’s the ONLY reason Andy would EVER nibble.
man pettite is trying to screw this up!
Cumon Andy.
Hah. The Garden crowd chanting “Lakers Suck”. Priceless.
Pettitte is killing me.
Fuckin Pettitte.
It must be the ballpark, right Andy?
That could have been a lot worse.
Yah. And it probably WILL get worse. Only getting two runs in that first inning…I just hope they continue to smack Lowe around, because Andy’s got nothing today.
I like this new, kinda pissed off, Mike A!!!!
come on Andy dont lose the lead already
DAMNIT ANDY, they give you the lead and you start giving up a run?
Tough going back and forth between this blog and a Knicks blog.
Let’s see: 4 well hit balls (but only one double), 2 walks and 28 pitches in the first.
We need to score more.
Memo to the guy in the red shirt at the WaMu theater happily cheering on Blake Griffin:
There’s no such thing as “Clipper Nation”.
thank god andy got out of this
wooooo! derek jeter!
Smoltz is hitting 93 with his fastball. Thats faster than I was hoping.
consistently? Must be on that Grit
Nick Johnson injured in the Red Sox-Natinals Game.
damn it
let’s go A-rod
God, Teixera is so bad with RISP in clutch situations. Package him in a deal with Cano for Giambi and Mariano Duncan.
whoa, another John? i though this name was uncommon
Lowe looks like the love child of jeff daniels and owen wilson
Alex Rodriguez is good at baseball
Alex Rodriguez is good at baseball during low leverage situations to pad his stats.
Fixed.
/Phillips’d
Even if that’s true, they all count.
Arod fuckin killing the ball tonight.
Alex!
Another hit, thanks to Joe Girardi’s ejection last night.
Oh man will it be really good to get him going
I missed you Alex.
Very steep decline!
He’ll never hit a HR ever again
asymptotic
Woo-hoo stat-padder!
stat padder?? it’s the 2nd inning, ur a hater.
it was a freakin joke
ok , sorry. werent you the same guy who just said trade tex for mariano duncan??
that was a joke too.
Go ahead and make your jokes, Mister… Jokey… Jokemaker.
hells no
I’m a different John BTW
(Finish this joke)
This place is like a whorehouse…
Loaded with Johns.
a rod is on fire
a rod is on fire
3 runs first 2 innings is nice, but 5 lob is still frustrating.
well we got one RISP hit
Snark level very high today.
me likey
/spade’d
Tommy: I l-left a message.
Richard Hayden: A message? What number did you call?
Tommy: Two, four, niner, five, six, seven…
Richard Hayden: I can’t hear you, you’re trailing off and did I catch a niner in there? Were you calling from a walkie-talkie?
Tommy: No, it was cordless.
Richard Hayden: You know what? Don’t. Not here, not now
cmon Andy…no mo walks/hard hit balls/runs
Whoops.
Sigh.
9 on base in 2 innings is awesome
Jeff Weaver losses an extra inning game.. Bad Memories..
LETS GO YANKEES!!!
ARod’s single from last night seems to have sparked something, I hope.
Sacramento takes Tyreke Evans instead of Ricky Rubio.
(golf clap)
Very shrewd. Well done, Cow-Town.
now, does Rubio get past minnesota? If he does I’d be worried the knicks might actually take him.
There is no earthly way Rubio doesn’t get drafted with one of these picks.
The Wolves just traded away their only point in Foye.
yup, he’s been taken at 5. not surprising.
ANDY PETTITTE IS A STARTING PITCHA!!! HE GETS THA MCCLOUT OUT
He is a gold glover, lefty and has blonde hair, he is perfect for Yankee Stadium. He is greater than “The Commerce Comet”.
Is there anything KS doesn’t know? This guy needs to be our everyday announcer.
I think that, unlike many announcers, Kenny READS the notes they prepare for him
And he obviously had the playing experience, not to take that away.
josh bard’s the man
A-Rod tied Reggie for 11th all time with that solo shot.
Woah, its like I just went in a time machine. This comment feels so delayed.
A lot if you wanted Grit the whole time but I gotta say, he’s surprising me as of late.
Hitting over .300 with a .360 OBP. He’s been great after the slow start. I’m still not sure he’s an everyday players, but I have little to back that up with. His OBP for righties (.360) and Lefties (.353) is very close, just last year in AAA. And once he’s on, he scores at a very high rate.
http://www.baseball-reference......09&t=b
Don’t look at the SLG/OPS, he’s not that type of player. He’s a table setter, OBP and Runs Scored are his job and he does it well.
BTW-Hitting .300+/.360 for May and June
Yeah, I’m Melky’s biggest fan but shit, Brett is gettin it done. That said, Melky still has a spot on MY Yankees.
Great!
So much the better for the Yanks. What’s the sample size against lefties/righties?
With Johnny’s calf/foot thing from the other day, having at least one of Gardner/Melky going well is really important.
The three players I didn’t want are all gone.
Rubio, Thabeet, and Harden.
I’m happy.
who did you want?
See above.
Why don’t you like Rubio or Harden?
Rubio’s atrocious defensively and limited offensively.
Harden has ZERO ceiling.
But Rubio has more potential offensively once he thickens out a bit. And I think Harden can become something like Ben Gordon, which isn’t the worst thing ever.
Harden has zero shot of becoming Ben Gordon.
Harden isn’t so bad.
Harden is the least athletic top 10 pick maybe ever.
I think the comparison to Roy is off cuz I thought Roy was alot better athlete than people thought When I saw him played in Washington.
7 game hitting streak for Ransom woo hoo
Guys, I wish we had pitching depth like the Sox. I mean, if we could only have a pitcher we could call up that would throw 70 pitches in 3 innings, while giving up 5 runs…
Well we did have Wang doing that for a while
Yeah, but no one was talking about what a luxury that was going to be for the Yanks
Cash fuckin sucks.
id love to see John Henry’s twitter page tonight
It will read, “ARod back on roids. Proof he hit a home run off of Lowe.”
I do hope Smoltz can’t get ML hitters out anymore, but it’s a little soon to declare him a bust, no?
Rubio is a T-Wolf.
I think Jeter won’t come through here with 2 in RISP
*2 RISP
not in RISP
I hate the NL…
Time for some JD.
JD is the shit. ONE MORE YEAR!
I love me some JD!
Especially with a splash of coke on the rocks…
John, i think youre wrong
i’ll reveal my secret plan after the results
it was reverse psychology
Johnny D won’t come through…
Good ol reverse psychology I’m hoping
Exactly and it worked
you = fail
No, leave him alone.. It’s working!
Johnny Flynn: Overdrafted anyone?
Why the Wolves just drafted TWO small point guards is behind me.
Whoops.
BEYOND me.
Epic fail on my part, and Minnesota’s part.
Plus, Flynn is not better than holiday or even Curry.
I just don’t get that pick.
Agreed.
Bad draft for the Wolves.
And Kevin McHale wasn’t even there to screw it up for them this year!
Did Mrs. Snarkman put a stop to the SNARKMAN appearance at MSG tonight?
The NBA draft isn’t an “event” like the NFL draft is.
I saw Flynn going as high as 4 to the Kings
Offense is back. I missed it.
All thanks to Girardi’s ejection. He’s a genius.
Johnny Damon clears the bases!!!!!!
Kotchman > Teixeira, right?
And Jair Jurrgens > Every other pitcher.
And the enigma that is the NY Yankees continues.
Derek Lowe is happy he’s not in the AL East.
Burnett>Lowe
Good call by Cash.
Oh, too bad. I wanted another hit!
Tex scalded that ball, though. When you’re out (on a ball in play) before you even manage to get both feet out of the batter’s box, you did pretty much everything you could.
WRONG! Teixera is obviously not clutch. He should have driven in that run off of a struggling pitcher. Anyone notice that Mariano actually hit it into the outfield last night and Teixera has been unable to do so tonight? I wonder if we can trade him to the Indians as well.
Again, this is a different John…
this is sarcasm I believe
I’m really curious as to how Bostonians would pronounce “Teixeira”
They’d just call him “T”. Simpler that way.
No one on the Yankees can pronounce it. Boston would pronounce it as wicked retahded
Yes! Curry is gone. Now the Knicks can take Jordan Hill!
Curry goes to GS.
Surprising.
Ellis back to PG correct?
Meh, they’re identical.
Play them together as co-points and co-SG’s.
Just get ready to be pulverized on defense.
John, how’s Pettite gonna do this inning?
no runs
Noooooo, “He will do horribly”. We’re riding the hot hand your dealing.
Well I would but I don’t want to waste a good luck charm (for now at least) in a 6-1 game. So, I wanted to say the positive thing that I really think will happen.
And there, it just did.
dammit i wanted stephen curry
Nice pick for Golden State. They have a damn small backcourt though.
I don’t know what Curry does for them that Monta Ellis doesn’t already do.
i noe there basically like the same player im so pissed i wanted him to be a knick.
Plus, Ellis is much faster and athletic. Nevertheless there’s the notion that Ellis might get traded.
Neither Curry or Ellis natural pt guards and their small.
Isn’t Chipper Jones like 75 years old?
Don’t poke the bear…let him keep settling for walks and singles to the opposite field!
Yes. He was the starting third baseman for the 1958 Milwaukee Braves. He was best friends with Frank Torre on that team, the brother of Joe Torre who ended up managing against the Braves in the 1999 World Series.
and Angel Berroa was his mentor (at least during the ROY year)
/Pete Abe’d
Is it me or has Andy not looked good for the past 3 starts or so. Think he is injured or perhaps needs to be DL’d until his back is better.
He looked great in his last start. What are you talking about?
+1
He’s fine, Andy’s always been a 2nd half pitcher. Excluding last year when he was hurt.
6/19 7IP, 3H, 1ER, 0 BB, 7K
Yeah, Andy looked just atrocious against the Marlins….
Oh Mo, on the steps in the backdrop it says “A-Rod Cheats.” They love them some Andruw Jones though.
and Gary Sheffield.
A lot of pitches for Andy already
I just stopped in to say AROID SUCKS HORRIBLY!!@11111!!!!!
And on a serious note:
I can not believe MJ has passed.
“No joke. King of Pop is no more. Wow,” Michael Harris, 36, of New York City, read from a text message a friend sent to his telephone. “It’s like when Kennedy was assassinated. I will always remember being in Times Square when Michael Jackson died.”
I could cry.
On CNN I saw a text from a viewer that said MJ was a hero and outstanding role model….
We are a country of morons.
In our dead pool, no one had Michael Jackson. Too bad… Almost a thousand bucks left on the table.
Some woman who wrote a pro-michael book was on E! crying about how hes misunderstood
“It’s like when Kennedy was assassinated.”
He’s 36. When JFK was assassinated, he was -9 years old.
lmao, I didn’t even notice that….
Yeah, how do you make that connection even if he was alive? Michael Harris is a moron. That’s probably what he was doing in Times Square.
Maybe he meant JFK Jr? Does killing yourself and your wife in a plane crash count as an “assassination”?
BTW-How come only famous people get “assassinated”? The rest of us get “killed” or “murdered” but public figures get “assassinated”. I guess it sounds more important.
always thought that too
By definition, assassination involves the targeted killing of public figure.
Check it: http://tinyurl.com/nkaw98
OK, guess that explains it.
Read it again. He wasn’t saying he remembered where he was when Kennedy was assassinated.
He was saying he’ll always remember where he was when he heard that Jackson died, just like members of the previous generation will always remember where THEY were when Kennedy died.
Is it too early to start the “MJ’s not dead” rumor? I’m definitely saddened to hear of his passing, but I won’t be surprised when I hear this rumor….
How long after he died did the Elvis Fanatics wait to start claiming that Elvis wasn’t dead?
you have to look up the definition of ‘assassination’ the definition says “public official” in it
jordan hill
Jordan Hill! Now, it’s time to trade David Lee.
Meh, Lee was gonna get traded regardless.
Jordan Hill.
And the Knicks fans boo. That’s why I don’t go to the NBA draft. Not enough smart people there.
It’s amazing.
It was worst last year when they booed Gallinari.
Eh, Gallinari was actually mildly boo-worthy.
Not because he’s bad, just because we should have taken Eric Gordon.
While we both differ this, considering I would picked Gallinari over Gordon.
You could teach them….they need a hero!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7f_HsjpSVaI
Jordan Hill. He’s okay. I can live with it.
Ransom playing 2nd tonight is just further proof that Ramiro will be playing every day in Scranton shortly. I feel it’s for the best.
The extra ABs won’t turn him into Pujols, but yeah, the kid could certainly use some more development time as a hitter.
True, who knows what he’ll be. He’s never been projected to be a hitter but working everyday is necessary for someone so young. He can work on hitting, bunting, stealing, etc…
The Arod Cheats sign doesn’t pass judgment on that. They might be like Arod Cheats! ALRIGHT!
Axisa, you got me. Goldblum’s not dead.
He’s not. I think it was all fake.
Kevin Spacey sent out a tweet saying stop saying my friends are dead. So okay Kevin.
Admit it, though, when you first read the words “Goldblum dead” the first thing you thought of was “autoerotic asphyxiation”.
I thought, “heart attack on top of his 24 year old girlfriend”.
It’s a lovely wish for any man.
God creates dinosaurs. God destroys dinosaurs. God creates man. Man destroys God. Man creates dinosaurs.
And Harrison Ford is also still not dead.
I can also confirm that Mark Twain is dead. He was wrong this time in saying “reports of my death are greatly exaggerated”.
Generalissimo Fransisco Franco is still dead, though.
Derozan pick can make u look like a genius, or a complete moron.
Losing Farrah Fawcett hurts more…. I was eight. Had her poster. She was hot…. even though I had no idea why I had her poster. But everyone did. Then I took it down for a Dr. J and a Dr. Dunkenstein.
You spanked it to Dr J?
iREALLYetc
IETC +8
Bout time the bats woke up.
I’m sure they did it because they knew you were getting annoyed.
Thanks to Joe Girardi’s ejaculation last night. The man’s a genius.
Two comments in 1 minute that made me laugh..
Thank You.
Even though he was that fierce in the process, the amount of good stuff resulted from it really motivated out players to swing their bats…especially A-rod
well I hope they don’t use up all their runs like the did in the 15-0 drubbing against the mets so we have to sit through I dunno…whatever that awful # of games it was
Nah, we have good pitching match ups for the Mets
Sabathia vs Pelfrey
Burnett vs Redding
Wang vs Hernandez
Anything can happen, but I’ll be disappointed if we don’t sweep them. They’re fielding a AAA lineup and no Santana.
No Beltran right?
Try enjoying this first…
Become a crumudgeon tomoorrow.
Yeah, the Yankees should just stop trying to score runs in this game. Comebacks never happen. Just go up there and take pitches. I bet A-Rod still tries to pad his stats though.
Ransom Jack
Damnit, I thought I called it right.
I know it’s a pipe dream but if they could draft Jennings at 29, that would be HUGE!!!!!!!
Fuck it.
from compton to italy to milwalkee, dont think thats the road he planned
