We all know ed's love for the cubs so will he stay loyal to th national league? but then again the yanks and angels haven't won a WS in quite some time so they are the challengers while Philly are trying to repeat last year and ed seems like more of an under dog kind of guy...

i know mike's a Seattle fan (at least from the fact he's played the national anthem and thrown out the first pitch for them) so will he stay loyal to the American league?

i know with them playing in Philly they are going to suck up to the Philly fans, but i wonder who they are actually rooting for

    I would guess NOT the Yankees. Just a hunch.
    Minneapolis 98, Chicago 00, San Fransisco 00, Fargo 03, Thunder Bay 05, St Paul 06 (night 2), Chicago 08 (EV) both nights

    Don't it make you smile?

    I think he's rooting for Pedro to get his 2nd ring.

    In 2004, at the Boston shows he was talking about Pedro winning his first ring and finishing with three. And low and behold the Sox came back from down 3-0 against the Yankees and made history.

    They're friends with Raul. I'll copy what I wrote elsewhere...


    Heard Rauuuuuulllllll interviewed on 97.5 with Mikey Miss. Missanelli recalled this past week that Raul said to director of fun and games John Brazier, "Hey, I wanted to know if you get some tickets for some friends of mine for the series. They're in a band, called Pearl Jam." Hahahhahaa, so humble the dude is, and so awesome. Anyway, we're looking at PJ really wooping it up in the City of BrotherLEE Love! Ah man, too much to handle right now. The boys sitting in the crowd rocking Phils hats. Fucking sweet.

    of course he talking about that in Boston. Doesn't mean anything except he was relating to the Boston crowd.

    The Yankees are the most conservative and Republican of teams. I think the band will be rooting for the Angels the next two nights and, if that doesn't work out, then they'll be rooting for the Phillies.

    Of course, there are exceptions. But do you really deny that the Yankees represent the ideals of conservatives? Unfettered big business, slavish respect for tradition, the never-changing uniforms (as a Yankees hater, this is one thing I actually respect about the Yankees-- no dopey third jerseys), tickets only an investment banker can afford, etc.

    Yeah, it screams of liberalism to ban long hair and anything but neatly trimmed mustaches. Come on, man, it's fine if that's what you're into, but the Yankees are the ultimate corporate sports franchise.

    and the Phillies and Angels organization are liberal? Please? Baseball teams are like corporations, looking to make money. That is all of them. The Phillies and Angels are hardly running a co-op.

    SO the team instals some discipline into the Yankees, No long hair and Neatly trimmed facial hair. So what? Have you ever noticed before the games their uniforms are crisp. To be a winner you need to act like a winner and look like a winner not some jack ass from off the street. Sort of like in the Military.

    Edit: I am not against long hair or beards, but if that is what it takes to run a tight ship so be it. I like Ed with his current locks it looks good. The NJ Devils are the same no facial hair until the playoffs.

    The Phillies and Angels have their limits. The Yankees are Standard Oil. They are Microsoft. Their 2009 payroll is more than twice that of 22 major-league teams. 2009 payrolls:

    Yankees: $201.4 million
    Angels: $113.7 million
    Phillies: $113.0 million

    Anyway, no one spent more freely than the "conservative" George W. Bush. He was left a surplus by the Democrat who preceded him, and handed over a $1.2 trillion deficit and a cratering economy to the Democrat who succeeded him. Two wars, Medicare Part D, TARP, tax cuts for the rich. That's Bush's free-spending legacy.

    Under George Steinbrenner, long hair and facial hair below the lip are prohibited. Players who do not fit these criteria must shave the excess hair. In the past, visible tattoos were also prohibited and players wore navy blue arm bands to cover them, although this practice has since been ceased.

    Although this is a policy that all baseball teams once had, the Yankees are currently the only team with such a policy and have gotten notoriety enforcing it. Many players, most notably Reggie Jackson, Roger Clemens, Jason Giambi, Gary Sheffield, Johnny Damon, and Randy Johnson either had long hair, significant facial hair, or both before playing for the Yankees, but were clean-cut by the time they had their press conferences unveiling them as members of the Yankees.


    Yankees are keeping it old School with the hair.

    I think it's great if that's how they want to run their business. However, allowing grown men to make their own grooming decisions hasn't seemed to inhibit the 7 franchises that have won a World Series this millennium (the Yankees not among them) from doing so. Baseball is not the military. The military has much more reason to encourage conformity and equality.

    Anyway, the point was that this policy, whatever its merits, hardly "screams of liberalism."

    and the Phillies and Angels organization are liberal? Please? Baseball teams are like corporations, looking to make money. That is all of them. The Phillies and Angels are hardly running a co-op.

    The Phillies and Angels have their limits. The Yankees are Standard Oil. They are Microsoft. Their 2009 payroll is more than twice that of 22 major-league teams. 2009 payrolls:

    Yankees: $201.4 million
    Angels: $113.7 million
    Phillies: $113.0 million

    Anyway, no one spent more freely than the "conservative" George W. Bush. He was left a surplus by the Democrat who preceded him, and handed over a $1.2 trillion deficit and a cratering economy to the Democrat who succeeded him. Two wars, Medicare Part D, TARP, tax cuts for the rich. That's Bush's free-spending legacy.

    It's just amazing to see those numbers ... and yeah, the Red Sox were at $121M ... (Mets I think were 2nd with $149M)

    The Yankees are just playing on a whole different level than anyone else.
