Yanks/Sox

[JimG.]

Let's do it again!

Believe it or not, I'm rooting for them too. I live for Yanks/Red Sox baseball.

 

[BeanoNYC]

Hold on...Boston sports fans being gracious? What am I thinking? :blink:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

That is more eleqoquent than I could have put it! I've been thinking of a way to bring that up w/o insulting my friends here.

 

[Strat]

Sox are out. Sorry boys.

 

[thetrailboss]

And...the Sox just blew it...some things never change I guess :roll:

Well, got more time now to do other things.

 

[BeanoNYC]

Owch

 

[FRITOLAYGUY]

WEll i said either the yanks or sox would get picked off, i didnt expect it to be my team in a sweep, and the yanks arent looking so goood now either, i bet FOX is about to puke with a angels/whitesox series, i wonder how those ratings will do. Their only hope is to have St. Louis in the series now, its the last team that has a national following.

 

[BeanoNYC]

Well I'm not counting the Yanks out just yet. I never underestimate them. We'll have to see. 4pm Start! Can't wait!

 

[JimG.]

Bosox out...WTF?

Yanks still hanging in by a thread. Even if they win, not the same for me now that the Sox are gone.

Can you say

MOOSE

Can you say

MOOSE

Moose! .... They kept him in California after game 2 with a catcher to spare him a roundtrip flight if a Game 5 was needed. Looks like he's all ready to go for tonight. BTW ... Mariano is looked real good last night..... I LOVE OCTOBER!!!!!!

5-3 Angels
:beer:

Suppose that collision in the outfield hurt at all.



I know I'd be hurting after coliding with Sheffield.



Anyway, seeing the Yanks lose my bitterness of the Sox loss was slightly tempered. Plus the Pats won.

:beer:

Mwuh-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Equal misery is the BEST.

BTW - I was at Fenway for game 3, and while I was cheering for the Red Sox all the way, it was clear that Chicago was a better team and did deserve to win. It was a great game, and kudos to the Faithful for giving Graffanino a big cheer when he was announced.

 

[ChileMass]

Sorry, Yankee fans - your team is just another ball club now.

I think Stephen hit it right on the head -

mwwah-hah-hah-hah-hah.....!!!

 

[Paul]

Its the Curse of A-Rod!!!!


:lol:

 

[JimG.]

Wow, you guys really get off on another team losing, huh?

Yes, it turns out both teams suck. There's always next year.

For me, the only lasting image is seeing Bernie Williams on the bench instead of in center watching BUBBA CROSBY blow the game and the Yanks season by crashing into Sheffield who would have easily caught that ball. Blew the game open.

BUBBA CROSBY :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: !

Oh, c'mon Jim - you gotta be kidding! Yankee fans have DELIGHTED in the misery of the Red Sox for decades. When the Sox lost the other day and the video was shown on the Yankee Stadium jumbotron, the Yankee fans stood and cheered like crazy. So now that the shoe is on the other foot, don't be crying foul. Both Sox and Yankee fans live by the sword and die by the sword. No mercy from either side, baby - !!!

Bernie certainly would not have gotten to that ball, but does Sheff catch it - who knows? The Yanks got a couple of VERY questionable calls form the umps, too (Cano was absolutely inside the basepath, IMO). But it's nice to see the Yanks on the short end of the calls for a change.

The good news for you Yanks fans is that no matter what it takes, the Boss will spend plenty of dough in the winter to make sure you are contenders again next year, while the Sox try to rebuild from within. Don't get your shorts in a bunch - your Yankee pennant/World Series birthright will be there next season, just like every other season......

Chile bud, I don't much care what other folks do in these situations. Above was my reaction to the Sox losing: disappointment.

Not to say I wouldn't be happy to see the Yanks beat the Sox, but I really feel cheated that both lost and we didn't get our annual Yanks/Sox deathmatch.

It's just a game; but please, don't lump me in with alot of other NY fans who live to curse, insult, and abuse Sox fans. I live to see good baseball and that's what Yanks/Sox is ALL about for me.

Frankly, I took my oldest son David to a Yanks game at the stadium when he was 5 and vowed never to go back...too much drunken, obscenity laced stupidity.
Sad.

 

[Brettski]

Met fan here....had to watch though....

They say pitching is everything.....but hitting wins games

If not for the collision it's a close game....but the Yanks just didn't hit.

Bottom line

BTW...it's the Centerfielders ball
