    Mo said he was thinking about retiring. But now he wants 5 more years.

    Mo just told the phillies (a great team) that the game ends after 7 innings, he is far from done

    And Pettitte for clinching each playoff series this year.

    I remember saying something else. Like we'll get you back in the World Series. But still.

    Mo said that his ribs were hurting and wasn't sure he would pitch tomorrow. Lucky they got it done today.

  • WOW...unbelievable. I said today to someone, could you imagine Pettitte gets the win, Mo the save (I don't think he did get a save, but still) Jeter & Posada have a few hits AND Pedro gets knocked around....could it possibly get any better than that? If it was a Hollywood movie, it would be criticized as too cheesy and unrealistic. 27, 7 (SEVEN!!!) in my lifetime, 5 in 13 years.....Team of the Decade, 2nd decade in a row. and how about the new Stadium Magic. 1923, Championship. 2009, Championship. Throw in a pennant in 1977 for the re-model, that's crazy

    Only beef, the postgame coverage was awful. Very little in the lockerroom action. i don't want to see Kay & Co, on YES, The MLB Network crew, Berman and Co. on ESPN.....show me the champagne flowing

    I've noticed that about postgame coverage of other series. When the Phillies beat the Dodgers, coverage inside the clubhouse was very limited.

    One thing that was cool seeing was the trophy presentation on the field. I seem to recall previous years that it was done in the clubhouse.

    From a longtime Red Sox (1972) fan CONGRATULATIONS they played well last year especially wih the walk off wins. It only sucks that A-Rod FINALLY has a ring. I might go up to Yankee spring training for a game if they play the O's or the Marlins. Next is a must for opening day for the SOX, again CONGRATS.

    Peace

    First off - yes i am repeating myself,

    OK Yankees / Pearl Jam Fans-

    how many of us are going to be congregating
    out in The Canyon Of Heroes Friday for the hysteria that is
    a NYC tickertape parade ?

    anyone else a little embarrassed for matsui that he needed an interpreter to accept his mvp award? i understand people that don't know the language need interpreters, but thats just it, he's been playing ball here making millions for like 5 years, ya think he could have gone out of his way to get himself rosetta stone by now??

    I think he speaks english some. I think it was just a big moment and he wanted to make sure he did not mess up and say the wrong thing in case he misinterpreted a question.

    no. maybe he knows some English but not enough to feel comfortable expressing himself properly in it.

    Spot on. I have read a lot of places that he speaks english very well but is not comfortable conducting big interviews in English

    It definitely does. It's easy to think someone could do that but when there's a bunch of microphones and tape recorders in your face, it's not that easy.
