    My cousin and I were talking about 15 minutes ago. I told him whenever some things big happen for the Yankees, he's somehow involved. He was at game 1 of the '98 series when Tino hit the grand slam. He was also at the Jeter flip play. We are both now wondering how many people were actually at both games? He says less than 100 and I'd have to agree with him. We want to know how we can find this out.

    I joked for A-Rod's grand slam tonight, his son's first Yankee hat arrived in the mail today.

    It's sad but I know I'm not the only one. No matter how hard ARod tries, he will never be considered "a Yankee".

    I'm over that by now. Nobody will really be a Yankee other than Jeter, Rivera, Pettitte and maybe Cano.

    I didn't mean to bring this conversation up. Just some players will be edeared by the mass of Yankee fans and other won't. I mean how long did it take Roger Maris to be embraced? Shit. During '61 the guy was booed and spit on in favor of Mickey. Maybe in a few years fans will come around with ARod but for now I don't view him as a "gamer". Just my opinion and no offense to ARod fans out there.

    What a great game to be at last night :D

    Tex at plate two on
    My Braves Buddy- That 4th run was huge i don't give a shit if Tex hits one onto Hank Aarron Blvd we still have the lead.
    Me- grumbles whatever
    Bases Loaded Arod at the plate
    Me- How would you feel if Arod hits one on Hank Aaron Blvd?
    My Braves Buddy- That would suck
    BOOM
    My Braves Buddy- GODDDAM IT!
    Me- FUCK YES!

    I have no clue what Freddy Gonzalez was thinking in that situation, but he's manager of the year in my opinion.

    One more game tonight for me. Can't Wait

    But doesn't that just go to show how pointless and fickle the "true" Yankee conversation is. I mean, no one enjoyed '61 or liked Maris because he wasn't Mick and now he has his number retired (which I don't agree with). And today many don't like Arod or appreciate his talent because he isn't Jeter yet is one of the best players of all time. While there are definitely players I like more than others (Jeter!!), if you wear the interlocking NY, you are a Yankee in my book and I will do nothing but root and cheer for you.

    Didn't say I won't root for the guy and the team it's just I'm not a fan of his individually. He strikes me as selfish and joe torre pretty much confirmed that. Hope he hits 400 the rest of the season and blasts another 50 homers it's just I really don't like him. I know I'm not the only one either.

    My 2 cents, he helped us win a ring, that makes him a Yankee in my book.

    And game two of both the ALDS and ALCS with huge game tying home runs. 2009 doesn't happen without him.

    Absolutely insane how many Yankees fans where there and how much they dominated the cheering. Sweep tonight.

    How fucking crazy is it that the Yankees are going to match up with the Nationals this weekend and it's going to be a series between the two hottest teams in baseball.?

    I can't wait.
