shes right the fact that we kept getting closer and Jorge rips that last one foul? that woulda been a 1 run game..,,shoulda coulda woulda oh well
we made it interesting and we werent even supposed to be here..like CLerks
and Im STILL proud to be raised a Yankee fan Allie!
ah,
dante "I'm not even supposed to be here today!" classic
I dare say Clerks 2 was even better although more twisted
no doubt, they did do us proud. It was the bugs. I knew it was a bad omen. it's not our year :(

so pettite it depends on Torre and is Torre REALLY gone???
who we gonna hire thats gonna do better
its like saying youre gonna fire Phil Jackson...same shit
and Moose can finish his career back in Baltimore maybe or he'll play out his last yr coming out the pen for us which I dont think would be so bad. He can come in as a good mid reliever. In the middle innings he was chewing the indians up with strikes! STILL nasty... I didnt really have much faith left in him...but he held it down
I think Joe is done

************************************
So then why the sinister laugh if we were part of your team not making the playoffs?
The Yankees had nothing to do with the M's god-awful collapse towards the end of the season. We shot ourselves in the foot multiple times for multiple games. It was almost Mets-like.
Just noticed the Yanks are paying Pavano $11M next year as well ... double ouch.
True, but the Sox paid Clement 9.5 this year. That's the biggest example of why the Sox and Yanks are playing a different game than the other teams - big mistakes like Pavano and Clement would cripple a team with a lower payroll. Both the Sox and Yanks can find ways around their mistakes. Thankfully though he's finally off the payroll now.
You could probably argue that the best free agent starting pitcher this year is Curt Schilling so I don't think that's where the Yanks are going to get their number 1 pitcher next year.
I'll take Rowand if hes a left fielder. We need a replacement for Matsui

Yeah and where were you the rest of the year? Your thread has 4 pages, ours has 180 something.
This is my first time actually coming into the "All Encomassing Trip" forum for longer than five seconds. I was unaware that baseball talk went into such depth in this forum, and on the few times I slipped into the forum by accident I did not notice an Indians thread, or would have posted in it - which is the reason for me not posting in it.
On another not, it's not really anything special that the Yankee's thread has more replied to it on a Pearl Jam message board than the one for the Indians. If you actually thought about it, being that the Yankee's are from New York they automatically have a much larger fanbase than a team in Cleveland. On top of that, being one of the most successful franchises in sports, they have a lot of fans outside of the city - meaning they are one of the most popular teams in baseball, resulting in more fans on here, resulting in more posts. It's common sense, and honestly means nothing so don't brag about it like it's something special.
Also, please don't even begin to refer, directly or indirectly, to me as a bandwagon Indians fan. You would be completely wrong for many reasons. I'm a young person, I'm an undergraduate in college. My knowledge of the history of baseball is rather limited, but I have been a close fan since I could understand and follow the sport - the mid '90s is when I started following it closely. I was born and raised in a diehard Cleveland Indians family, and some of my fondest memories are going to see the Indians when I was younger - Sandy Alomar, Albert Belle, Kenny Lofton, Omar, Thome, Marquis, Manny, Roberto, etc. My uncle has season tickets, so I go fairly often - and always have. Also, as a Yankees fan yourself, never - ever, make a joke about an Indians fan being a bandwagoner or anything along those lines. The Yankees, whether you'd like to admit it or not, has the biggest bandwagon in all of sports. For you own good, honestly, I'm letting you know that if you make fun of anyone for being on the Indians "bandwagon", you're just going to be laughed at and not taken seriously any further.
And I hope the Red Sox beat the sh*t out of the Indians.
On a sidenote, I find it incredibly hilarious and rather immature that a lot (not all) of Yankee fans are throwing a fit that they lost, and are resorting to hoping that their most hated rival, possibly the most bitter rival in all of sports, beats the "shit" out of the team they lost to - simply because they are too immature to handle such a loss accordingly. You do realize what you're saying there, right? I mean, come on, this is just pathetic. You're hoping that the Boston Red Sox beat the Indians simply because the Indians eliminated the Yankees from the playoffs? Excuse me, please, while I laugh my ass off.
I can't wait for this series to start, and I hope the media can deal without a Boston-New York ALCS. They're the two best teams in bsaeball (see records), and they appropriately should be playing against each other to represent the AL in the World Series.
With that being said, I tip my hat to the Sox - BUT GO TRIBE!
so who do you think George or Cashman go after? or do they hire from within?

Damon plays a good left field. And maybe one of those young guys who came up late this season could play back up.
how bout Torri Hunter, or Shannon Stewart?
shit I'll even take Andruw Jones if he can play left or like u said play JD in left and andruw in center or one of the abovementioned guys

wow that is a weak class ... jeez, I think the best on there IS Schilling ... who has already stated he will not play for the Yankees ... stating, once you've been with the Hatfields, you can never join the McCoys.
Guess the next question is, what small market team has a pitcher they can't afford anymore .... time for the Twins to unload Santana? ok, this is a stretch ... but, it's how the Yanks (and the Sox) think.

agreed. damon played well against cleveland, and therefore he doesn't get traded. he just needs to show up to spring training in shape next year.
matsui doesn't need to be replaced either. he's good when he's healthy.
i like rowand, but i don't want to see the yankees sign any type A free agents this offseason. i'd rather see them hold on to their draft picks and build the future that way.
also, the organization has a number of very good OF prospects right now. a free agent would block those guys from making it to the ML level.
EDIT: for those unfamiliar, type A free agents are the ones where you have to give up your first round pick if you sign them.

If we beat you guys, would you not be bummed out? Would you? Would you be happy about your beloved team losing?
I don't think you would, so please don't tell me how to feel or that my reaction is immature. That's the way I see things.
You're assuming my reaction to the Red Sox based on my support of the Yankees. Even though I'm not a fan of them, I still think they have a good ballclub.
