    Adam Jones on CC's podcast was pretty good.  Have never liked the guy a bit but sounds like a good dude.

    I fear this is probably a prescient prediction. Yanks are likely hungrier for the wins.

    I'll be at the Saturday game. Hope that one is a good one.

    Also, fuck you people!

    I agree but its baseball at its best. The way it should be. I figure at least one blow out and the rest close scoring games with drama and flared tempers. Mookie gets beaned intentionally or at least thrown at.

    Who the hell would intentionally throw at Mookie? He's just about the most affable player in the league. 

    Oh yeah, the Yankees.

    Too bad they can't throw at Sanchez. Then you'd see him hustle.

    They'd probably buy him tea.  New Yankee Stadium is soft and the place sucks (last year's playoffs not counting).

    Yeah, I saw a Red Sox fan hauled out of the bleachers on a stretcher at old Yankee Stadium. That was fucked!

    I always opt for the main level at Yankee Stadium so that I can actually enjoy the game without having beer cups and open ketchup packets tossed at me.

    There is a line between the old stadium and the new one. This one is a mall.  The rules are outrageous. DON'T YOU DARE STAND UP!

    I remember sitting in the right field bleachers during the '96 playoffs against the Rangers and people were so drunk they:
    1: actually held a Texas Rangers fan by his ankles over the Right field wall
    2:  mugged the hot dog vendor and started throwing hot dogs all over the place
    3.  were literally puking on each other

    After '96 they banned alcohol in the right field bleachers lol.

    Yeah, I've only been to a handful of games and concerts at the new toilet bowl--maybe only two Sox games. I don't understand what was wrong with the old toilet bowl. Were they just crying "no fair" because the Mets were getting a new ballpark?

    Two words:
    luxury boxes

    I used to go to 12-15 games a year at the old yankee stadium; I've been to the new stadium maybe 5 times.  The place is pure garbage.  Give me Camden Yards or fenway any day of the week.

    The new Yankee Stadium is awful to watch a game.  I would rank it ahead of the Sky Dome and maybe that's it (I have been to maybe 12 MLB Parks).  What an awful thing they did and NY is stuck with it for a generation.


    Went to PNC Park last weekend.  That is the best and its not that close.

    I wonder what the stadium at west 33rd street would have looked like. Only thing I didn't like about that idea was the Jets were going to have a new stadium there too. And I didn't want the Jets to be associated with the Yankees or to have the only stadium in NYC

    That said, the 2009 playoffs were awesome in person as were last  year's it looked like but yeah, agreed clearly.
