Halladay gets outdueled by Sergio Mitre tonight-lol
And the Jets win the Superbowl
Rangers win the cup
Santa Claus is not an apparition, nor the Easter Bunny or male friendly bull dykes.

Tough game tonight I say.

2010 schedule came out today. Yanks play the Red Sox in Boston to start and end the season. Can't think of a better place for Yankees to start their defense of their 2009 World Series victory.

gonna be cold up there in april no matter what the outcome of this season is..........

[jk2171]

Pettite is missing his start tomorrow due to shoulder fatigue. Uh oh, Tommy...it's all going to unravel isn't it?

[jk2171]

Sheesh, what is up with the Yanks? Now they get into a brawl over a no-name pitcher throwing behind Posada. I hope they're not losing their focus. They have a tough road trip coming up including SEA and LAA on the sched.

Shawn....what's up with the Tigers? Can't beat the Royals to save their lives!

[atomic charvel guy]

tellin' ya, i'm not very confident in the team's pitching right now.
Dice-K threw a great game last night, that's not good for anyone but the Sox.

[jk2171]

That makes two of us. Too bad CC can't start every day.

Dice-K did throw a nice game. If Beckett gets back in the groove they will be tough.

Did you see arod jumping up and down during the fight like someone hit
a walkoff homerun-lol
Girardi was right in the middle of it, I think he may have gained a little respect
in the clubhouse and dugout last night with the guys.

[jk2171]

Yeah....absolutely crazy! lol....I for one wouldn't want to mess with Girardi. Guy is built like a brick sh*thouse. I think he did get a measure of respect from the players in doing that. Although him running out there isn't quite as funny as seeing Zimmer heading out there to give Pedro a piece of his mind.

i thought Zim showed balls on that one, being 107 years old and all.
Damon, Tex, Swish, CC, they were all in there.
arod was standing behind brett Gardner jumping up and looking in-lol

Arod didn't want to ruin his manicure I'm sure.

Trivia question....who is the only Yankee to win Rookie of the Year, and an MVP award?

[atomic charvel guy]

in the same year?

[atomic charvel guy]

who is the only player in history to win mvp of the all star game and the world series in the same year??????

[jk2171]

in the same year?

No, not the same year. Only Yankee to win both awards.

Answer to your trivia....is it Jeter??

[atomic charvel guy]

Jeter is correct, in 2000.

What a home job by the umps in Boston last night. Great comeback by the Sox, but they gave Nick Green 5 strikes, it was ugly. Didn't matter who lost to me since they were playing the Angels. But it was a home job bigtime.
