i didn't like how everyone was saying byrd was gonna be easy to beat. i felt that was a jinx. and i felt if wang wasn't gonna go 6 or 7 we were pretty much done.
This is so awesome. And even better as a Sox fan is if they actually do fire Joe Torre. Despite him burning out his bullpen over the past couple of years still a great manager.

...and that mentality is why a lot of people are "yankee haters". you made it to the playoffs, and came back from a huge deficit early in the year to prove a lot of people wrong. you're also the only returning team to the playoffs from last year, and i believe have made it more times this decade than any other team - and are tied with the cardinals, i believe, for most number of world series appearances this decade (2). therefore, you have no reason to complain. nearly any other team in the MLB would have been overjoyed with making the playoffs this year, and overcoming that deficit, even if they were to lose in the first round - let alone all the other amazing accomplishments that the yankees have made since the beginning of the decade. so, no, it's not "only all good if you win" - because it's been pretty much "all good" for awhile now. the indian's haven't been to the world series in a decade, and have made it to the playoffs once this year. they are a very young team with lots of talent, and i'm excited as hell to see how far they can make it because by god they deserve it.
Yeah and where were you the rest of the year? Your thread has 4 pages, ours has 180 something.
Appearances this decade? You mean in the 2000's or in the last 10 years in total?
In the last 10 yrs we've been there in the WS in 98, 99, 2000, 2001 and 2003. If you're gonna talk sports to me get your facts straight.
I wasn't even talking to you, I was responding to someone else who said "it's all good" which means 'everything's cool' and this is my favorite team, I love them and I'm completely bummed out that they lost. Henceforth to ME PERSONALLY, everything is not all good at this moment in time.
And I hope the Red Sox beat the sh*t out of the Indians.

i can't wait for next year. Hughes, Chamberlain, Wang, Kennedy and either Mussina or Pettitte if he decides to come back. I think Wang lowered himself to the #3 or 4 spot.
hey ALlie, chin up girl! its all good for all the reasons that drew0 said. Its what kind of eases the pain a lil bit and our futures still bright with Melky, Robby, Joba, Wang will bounce back, Hughes..were good
I cant take anything away from the indians..it sux but fuck it, enjoy and good luck drew
Aah, fuck it, I’m just gonna go home, turn on the fuckin’ TV...

wait, Roger at 22 looked nothing like Joba does now. Roger was about 190 - 200 lbs soaking wet.
yeah its amazing what rods can do for a person.not gonna hate on the yanks, they fought till the end.even though i hate the yanks alot, i still think torre should be back
Ron: I just don't feel like going out tonight
Sammi: Wanna just break up?
I think the Rockies are gonna do it. They just look like "they want it more." But seriously I like the look of the team. The manager has like a cool name for a manager. I was gonna go for the Cubs as a backup if the yanks didn't advance. Rockies-Sox. Rockies in 5.

Mussina will not be asked back, just one man's opinion.
And Wang, he was their best pitcher all year ... he had one bad outing on three days rest ... I tihnk the Yanks #1 starter next year will be acquired in Free Agency ... #2 will be Wang.
Man ... I feel kind of bad for the Yanks fans .... I agree with the guy who posted earlier about most of the Ynaks fans on this board being cool ...

from day one I was against him coming here and beginning of the yr I said...ok...if he doesnt shut me up THIS yr, then thats it, fuck him.
well he shut me up all season long.
and for about 5 seconds tonite :(
and as far as Moose and Andy comin back I wouldnt count on it besides wee need to get younger..let the Ian Kennedys and the Matt Desalvos work their way up

LOL! That was funny.
No they beat us so I want the Sox to beat them
Usually it's the other way around. You should want the team that beat you to go on and win the world series...then at least you got beat by the best - not the team to get eliminated in the next round.
yeah its amazing what rods can do for a person.not gonna hate on the yanks, they fought till the end.even though i hate the yanks alot, i still think torre should be back
true, actually Joba looks like what roger looks now! my bad, lol I shoulda phrased that right
yo metsy..wtf man?? I pick up half the Isles roster and they dont do shit for me...
dumpin all their asses tomorrow! lmao! I'll just keep Comrie for now
Aah, fuck it, I’m just gonna go home, turn on the fuckin’ TV...

Pettitte has a 16 million dollar player option due next year so it will be up to him if he wants to come back.
Mussina has a guaranteed 11 million dollar contract so the Yanks would have to find some team to dump his salary on or else he'll be back as well.

i thought Mussina was already signed through next year earlier this year. I think Andy should come back. It's up to him though. And Wang had two bad outings. I heard Johan Santana wanted to be traded.

This year's free agency class is really weak for starting pitching:
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.
Usually it's the other way around. You should want the team that beat you to go on and win the world series...then at least you got beat by the best - not the team to get eliminated in the next round.
So then why the sinister laugh if we were part of your team not making the playoffs?
and Im STILL proud to be raised a Yankee fan Allie!
You guys have one of the largest and greatest fan bases in all of baseball - and have had a legacy in this game unmatched. You have everything to be proud of as a Yankees fan. Keep your collective heads up.
And that is the last nice thing you'll catch me saying about the Yankees or their fans.
Pettitte has a 16 million dollar player option due next year so it will be up to him if he wants to come back.
Mussina has a guaranteed 11 million dollar contract so the Yanks would have to find some team to dump his salary on or else he'll be back as well.
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
Aah, fuck it, I’m just gonna go home, turn on the fuckin’ TV...

Are you really surprised that the Yanks lost this series? Cleveland is the better team.
It's been the Red Sox, Indians and Angels all season long.
So the match up in ALCS has the best two teams in the AL.
