  • something just occurred to me: is it possible that this whole thing is really just about barry bonds?

    last week, selig gave giambi two weeks to comply. at that point, bonds was nine home runs away from hank aaron. the timing of selig's deadline to giambi may have been in direct response to this. when selig asks for "full cooperation," it means very specifically that he wants giambi to point the finger at bonds. while this wouldn't give selig enough evidence to suspend bonds, it would certainly give him a legitimate excuse to not be present when bonds breaks the record.

    that's what it's all about: bud selig's image. he wants to look like the good guy here. well you know what? it's way too late for that.

    if he's really worried about his image, maybe he should go over to the barber shop and say, "here's $20. i'm tired of looking like an asshole."

    as for giambi, he may be a cheater, but i don't think he's a rat. bud selig is wasting everyone's time with this.

    as funny as that is, i think he'd need a whole lot more than a $20 haircut to stop looking like an asshole.

    No Bernie :(

    It won't be the same...but here's to a great season!

    I miss Bernie. This year, it's just not the same. Yes, his skills were diminishing, but I still think he deserved a roster spot.

    Viva La Bernie!

    Dear Yankees Fan,

    Due to the huge attendance at all the games
    against the Mets this weekend, The New York
    Yankees strongly urge all fans that are coming
    to games this weekend to use public transportation
    as it is the easiest way to get to Yankee Stadium.

    Parking is limited as a result of street and
    parking lot closures in the area around the
    current stadium. Please budget time when planning
    your trip.

    For more information about your mass transit
    options to Yankee Stadium, please click
    the following link:

    << GETTING TO YANKEE STADIUM >>

    Sincerely,

    The New York Yankees

    Wang vs. El Duque tonight. Should be a good one.

    The topic of baseball movies came up earlier in the thread and that Jimmy Fallon flick about the red sox was mentioned. I saw a much better movie about the sox this weekend called "Still We Believe". It documents the 2003 season and culminates in the pure bliss of watching Aaron Boone go yard off Wakefield in Game 7 of the ALCS. I love happy endings.

    Right now the important number is 3.5 out of the wild card. Many teams in recent years have won the World Series from the wild card position.

    The yankees are playing very good baseball. They just need to stay focused and healthy.

    The reason the yankees are so far behind the red sox is their pitching staff was in shambles for the first month and a half.

    Their are still 90 something games to be played plenty of time to make up plenty of ground.

    added this figure to my collection this morning.
    Baseball
    New Releases
    Upcoming Releases

    The strains of "Enter Sandman" ring through Yankee Stadium, a door opens in the outfield wall and out walks the most dominant closer in the history of the game. Mariano Rivera has taken the mound under the brightest of spotlights for the last decade and delivered inning upon inning of brilliant relief -- breaking bats and killing dreams all along the way.

    There are two versions of this figure. Once with the bullpen and one without. There is no guarantee of which version you will receive. Item sold AS-IS with no refunds or exchanges for this reason.




    it went on sale on spawn.coms store ,

    it has been going on ebay anmd at various other stores for upwards of 50- 70 dollars.

    supposebly it is a rarer run and an odd addition to any collection.

    Since I know Bathgate might need some translation:

    Haha, nice one Bathgate. The kid is still hung over from last night's win (8-2). I just heard on Sportscenter, John Sterling's new call - It's another A-bomb from A-Rod. I crack up every time he does it. By the way, the all-star voting ends in less than two weeks - keep Jeter and AROD on top of the voting.

    So I guess the Yanks successes/failures can not be attributed to by the performance of their trainer. I still feel bad for that guy because none of those injuries were his fault, and the team sucked worse once he left. (and yes i'm a yanks fan)
    I love to turn you on

    anyone catch the trailer for the mini series upcoming on espn , and the LATE 70s NYY team ( including a young and robust george steinbrenner , billy martin, reggie , the 3 homers , back in the old days the fans pouring over on top of the field at yankee stadium after winning the shabbang , all that stuff. )

    looks pretty good,...but very long---- i think its being aired over a month or two .

    it's based on the book - Ladies and Gentlemen, the Bronx is Burning". That's a very good book by the way. I think it's being aired six consecutive Sundays starting July 8.

    by the way bathgate, if you want a laugh or cry about the yankees in the 1980s, you should read the booked "Damned Yankees" by Bill Madden and Moss Klein.
