For some reason I missed the fact that IPK’s middle name is Patrick, saw everyone calling him IPK, never asked what it stood for and always called him Ian “Pitcher” Kennedy.
yankees cannot beat anaheim in NY
yankees cannot beat boston
yankees cannot win in fenway
yankees cannot beat roy halladay more than once in a season
yankees cannot win in anaheim
Now, what can people complain about. we’ve beaten boston, beaten la, we have the best record. What is there to bitch about? Lanny, I ask this of you as well.

1. a game between two arbitrarily chosen teams or featuring arbitrarily chosen players of significance that happens several times a year, sometimes several times a week, and never ever means jack shit.
2. a phrase used by the terminally negative or fatalistically nihilistic used to create fear and dread in the absence of any real importance or perspective.

Will people finally realize that this series doesn’t really matter?
We won the series, yet, when we see them in the playoffs all will be forgotten. Beating or losing to a team in the regular season has little to do with a team’s performance come October.
It’s a mental boost man. There’s no reason they should have owned us for the last 5 years except for insane sheer luck or they were in our heads. It can’t hurt.
If we get one win against Boston it’s garbage time from there. But yeah, what happens in the regular season makes no difference come playoff time. Yankees fans should have learned that much.
I want to use the W.B. Mason guy’s mustache as toilet paper. I’m so tired of seeing those commercials. Maybe he can take up smoking and end up being the old man who dies before seeing his daughter.
I’d say more graphic things, but generally, when I do that I advocate killing people, setting entire regions of the country on fire, torturing handicapped people, and I make lewd, inappropriate sexual jokes.
Why does ESPN continue to list our magic number at 7?? On television no less. That’s embarrassing. They can’t even do simple math…or they can’t handle the truth!!
IPK, bitches!
Ian Kennedy broke teh internets.
Wow, that inning was TENSE.
IPK-Joba-Hughes-Mo for the 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th in the playoffs! Starters only have to go 5.
you forgot ace?
well maybe ace goes 3, gaudin 2 in game 4.
Don’t forget Robertson and Ace. Really, starters only need to pitch into the 4th.
he gave me quite a scare there
my god, i cannot describe how loudly i screamed “YESSS!!!” after that out
i really channeled my inner marv albert… without the crossdressing of course
(bites woman on the back)
ietc
IETC!
(rubs one out to Rodman banging Madonna)
That’s just wrong.
Jeez, even I think that’s disgusting.
Take it easy champ, maybe sit the next few plays out.
Axisa, when all this gets sorted out, I think you and me should get an apartment together.
That was Marv Albert’s inner monologue, not mine. He was into that shite.
Sure…
(wink)
Play it cool, hotshot.
I’m more of a Big Daddy Kane vs. Madonna fan.
FACT: Madonna slept with the entire decade of the 1980’s. FACT.
How many people can claim they slept with Jean Michel Basquiat AND Vanilla Ice?
hair piece?
IPK is using the “I Got Ripped in 4 Weeks” product. Thats why he pwned there
this game is ovaa
how is the outfield defense with Guzman-Gritner-Melky?
Guzman UZR/150 in very SSS’s:
LF: 2.5 in 10 innings
CF: 25.1 in 162 innings
RF: N/A in 1 inning.
so overall, that’s probably the best outfield defense the Yankees can throw out there
All three of those samples are so small as to be meaningless to what he’d do going forward.
That was GREAT !!!!!
For someone who hasn’t pitched much of the year in this kind of game.
Damn GOOD !!!!!!
Very impressive, and not to be negative, surprising. I enjoyed that inning very much.
Brett….why?
Today, we spell redemption: I-A-N.
Mantooth out.
i’d prefer to spell it C-A-N-O
he actually hit with RISP today
Gah, class in 20 minutes. Mo needs to wrap this thing up quick.
Straight gafflin’ these mark-ass-tricks.
I have no idea what the fuck you just said, little kid.
GIMME THE MAP, SCOTT!!!!!
Holy Cow that was a crazy seeing eye single
Start selling the Save the Big 3 shirts again!!!!
What are they shouting?
Damn, I think i hurt my ankle running home from the bus stop for the game in this damn rain
oh well, now mo gets to slam the door on the angels
however, the 3that he faces seems quite daunting, no?
ARod? ARod?
WHERE THE HELL IS THE JUAN MIRANDA LOVE!!!
(Yeah, I know Oliver’s a lefty. I don’t care. PLAY THE KIDS!!!)
Why is Girardi bringing in ARod now when he could have brought him in when Pena entered the game for Hairston?
because he probably wasnt warmed up
you know, with his hip being 110%
Nick Torturro seems partially retarded.
let’s go Mo. Put this on in the books.
*one
I love that line of Abreu’s.
Lucky hit.
Fuck you bloop…need a DP to cancel that out
damn you bobby abreu
Fucker…lucky hit.
I bet Mo’s given up about 500 hits like that in his career.
has he even given up 500 hits?
haha
844
game 7, 2001 world series was the one that hurt the most, as far as bloops go
OMG shoulda left Kennedy in!1!!
so he could walk him? I’m joking I’m joking.
My current AL Cy Young ballot:
5. CC Sabathia
4. Justin Verlander
3. Felix Hernandez
2. Zack Greinke
1. Ian Patrick Kennedy
(Guys, I’m so freaking jazzed for this game. LET’S KILL ‘EM! AND THEN WE’RE GOING TUBING!)
You left off Sidney Ponson and Tomko.
I dont think they give the Cy Young award to pitchers with a 3.00 WHIP.
SHUT YOUR MOUTH.
You will not ruin this moment for me, BBAL.
Seriously?
1. Nick Swisher
2. Ian Patrick Kennedy
3. Scott Feldman
4. Zack Greinke
5. CC Sabathia
Nick Swisher does not receive awards. He prefers to give.
He makes all the award trophies himself, by hand, out of the dead skin and hair he sloughs off and collects during each day.
Nick “Magnanimous” Swisher
For some reason I missed the fact that IPK’s middle name is Patrick, saw everyone calling him IPK, never asked what it stood for and always called him Ian “Pitcher” Kennedy.
Anyway.
IPK:
I Produce K’s.
Nice pitch inside
I’m pretty sure the Angel’s haven’t gone down 1-2-3 all game.
the closest to 1-2-3 was the fourth inning when AJ struck out the side but gave up a walk.
Mo got that from Melancon
cmon mo
you got em
Torii, you are not worthy.
bye bye torii
Mo>>>>>Hunter
Mo >>>>> Baseball
Has anyone else noticed that yesterday and today Mo is throwing harder than he has all year and he’s also missing his spots a bit?
He is also pumped to see IPK.
One more…
One more Mo!
bye bye kendry
Mo>>>>>Morales
Golden Sombrero for Kendry
Yeah, it was about time he didn’t crush us in a game.
That’s what you get for being in BloodRayne, you no-talent hack!
WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!
Game over!
yankees winnnnn
sweet. a win.
Yankees >>>>>>>>> everyone
BALLGAME!
Joe D., baby!
Magic Number = 5
The Yanks can’t win in Anaheim, another meme dead.
how about we can’t beat good pitchers? sounds dead to me too
It’s a new era, that’s why.
No way to compare it.
who gets the belt today?
I say IPK
Mo is just awesome! 2 out 3!!
PLAYOFF PREVIEW:
PWNED.
IPK and a win? Life is good.
Wow, first time we win a series here in FIVE years. Niiice.
Magic number is 5!!! Great series. I’m ready for the BoSox.
Joltin’ Joe.
Didnt expect this win today after seeing the lineup and then needing 7 outs from the non-Mo portion of the bullpen. Gotta love it!!
the D lineup, no Ace, Hughes, or K-Rob
…and a win in Anaheim. I love this team
That’s baseball. Who expected KC to win the first two games of thier series with the Bosox?
well, one of them was Greinke
I’m still going with my prediction of a sweep.
Boooo.
I wanted an IPK interview.
IPK should get credited for this win. He just should.
Agreed. He deserves it.
You know, the first time I heard Molina speak, I was surprised how well he speaks English.
Thought he’d have a cockney accent, didn’tcha, you SALTY BUGGAH!
2009 Memes
yankees cannot beat anaheim in NY
yankees cannot beat boston
yankees cannot win in fenway
yankees cannot beat roy halladay more than once in a season
yankees cannot win in anaheim
A-Rod is a bumyou forgot beating rookie pitchers and soft tossing lefties
Yanks can’t beat rookie pitchers
Yanks can’t win without the HR
Yanks are too old and so can’t win
i have corn in my teeth
Yay Mo! Yay win!
Now, what can people complain about. we’ve beaten boston, beaten la, we have the best record. What is there to bitch about? Lanny, I ask this of you as well.
AJ BURNETT IS NOT A PLAYOFF PITCHAH!!!
Woops.
Don’t doubt Sal/Bo/Grant/Lanny. He’s the five-time defending “Player Hater Of the Year”. He called in a bomb-threat against the Special Olympics.
laughter is wonderful. thank you tommiesmxbjnsdgf/jvasvcjxv,n
That’s G.
I’m the top player hater from korea. You bitches better recognize.
Drew, what can I say about that coat… that hasn’t already been said about Afghanistan.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v.....annel_page
Drew, what can I say about the Angels that hasn’t already been said about Afghanistan? It looks bombed up and depleted.
NOT FAST ENOUGH
What a game – especially when you could only follow every other inning b/c of work
No, I have no doubts about the Lan-Bo’s ability to be a hater.
I can’t wait to see the highlights of the IPK sighting
(and I did catch the AG admission – jeez that’s bizarro)
But we can’t beat Los Tigres!
Oh wait…
…our nation turns its lonely eyes to you…
So ronery.
“it felt like the playoffs”
I’m sorry but, no, it didn’t. Did Kim see our lineup tonight?
Of course she didn’t. She was busy dodging Michael Kay.

We’re fucked if we play the Natinals in the playoffs, though!
True – But it was still a lot of fun and lowered the magic number.
It’s a mental boost man. There’s no reason they should have owned us for the last 5 years except for insane sheer luck or they were in our heads. It can’t hurt.
Nah, to some yanks fans, if we win in LA, its not important. If we lose, time to panic
If we get one win against Boston it’s garbage time from there. But yeah, what happens in the regular season makes no difference come playoff time. Yankees fans should have learned that much.
You’re right. That said, winning feels nice.
Well, seeing them win. I didn’t win a damn thing.
Kennedy with the terrifying, shaky hold.
100% ok with it.
I want to use the W.B. Mason guy’s mustache as toilet paper. I’m so tired of seeing those commercials. Maybe he can take up smoking and end up being the old man who dies before seeing his daughter.
I want to use the W.B. Mason guy’s mustache as toilet paper.
… Nah, too easy.
agreed. I almost spit on my screen.
I’d say more graphic things, but generally, when I do that I advocate killing people, setting entire regions of the country on fire, torturing handicapped people, and I make lewd, inappropriate sexual jokes.
These things tend to upset people.
I’ll have to take your word for it… Number 2…
JMK is your fax on the fritz?
You know it!
Buuuuuuut they have low prices and free delivery all wrapped up in a delightful showtunes song…
What’s not to like?
Mo just said when asked how IPK did: “We need those boys. We need those boys.” I couldn’t agree more.
Mo is the Bullpen Father.
Dare I say, Mo is the “GOD” Father?
Why does ESPN continue to list our magic number at 7?? On television no less. That’s embarrassing. They can’t even do simple math…or they can’t handle the truth!!
They just said 5 on ESPN during a game break on the Phils/Marlins game.
And Sutcliffe’s partner said that learning how to get out of the way of a pitch can separate a big league player from a minor league player.
both
Ian Kennedy?
