fuck off yankee fans!
im serious, what a bunch of bandwagon riding, good for nothing assholes. this isnt for the *real* yankees fans who actually have a love for the team, this is for the assholes that were mets fans in the 80s.
the reason for my hate is because after watching the sox come back against rivera, who has blown 4 straight saves against the sox, the yankee faithful start to boo him. granted, he did not look good at all, but boo the man who brought you several world championships in the last decade and who is ultimately considered the best closer ever?
fuck you, you assholes. i am a hardcore sox fan, but i have a lot of respect for rivera and just because he hits a slump doesnt warrant you pricks to boo him.
end rant.

i'm not commenting fully until the 3rd out, but dear lord, what a comeback--and i love that a-rod was the goat once again...

fuckyeah

alright mattyd, i have to say that was a nice victory. they might have lost the series, but today was crucial to getting back on track. and the confidence they now have against rivera is ridiculous, although i agree that it was sad to see such a classy guy booed.
with that said, how about renteria finally getting a hit? a clutch one at that. and how many times does mueller start the big rallies? he's so money in the late innings...

It's the year of the Cubs!

Twins have a good sqaud. Going for our 3rd straight division title after the MLB tried eliminating us. jerks
and c'mon, who doesn't like twins?

kingjulien, i feel you on the a-rod thing, what an ass.
its abotu time renteria got things started. he's on my fantasy team as well, andi was about to do some bad things if he didnt pick it up.
and what more can i say about bill 'sex' mueller. he is the yang to rivera's ying (not meant to be connotated sexually). 'sex' mueller is the fucking man. ive been saying it for years. him, wakefield and varitek are the red sox. period.
but this win was huge. in the standings as well. cos now we go to face a delgato-less jays team and they are facing the revamped orioles. so, it looks like we'll be pulling a jefferson's in the AL East.. moving on up! (i apologize, that was bad).

It's weird to be so involved this early in the season, and yet, these past two games have only added to a brilliant rivalry. I'm a little worried about the Jeter beaning--the Yanks will retaliate next week at Fenway, and without Kapler to get all buckwild in the middle of the pack, that means Youkilis is going to have to pick up the slack.
In all seriousness, hang on to Renteria, mattyd. A lot of people were down on Cabrera when he initially struggled, and yet we know what happened once he got comfortable. Renteria will put up monster numbers if healthy, especially out of that #6 hole. I also think he might let out his curl a little bit, maybe add some Pedro natural juices and berries, and once that happens, oh boy...

im not too worried about retaliation next week. i think torre knows better. however, i think ortiz (the two ton man mountain that can palm a medicine ball) will throw down pretty hard.
in regards to renteria, i know, i was just messin', but he has been KILLING ME these past few games. no one was shouting louder than me when he got that hit. he'll be fine though. it wasnt exactly ideal for his adjustment period in the AL to begin with the biggest rivalry in sports.
we needed this win though.
but, im out. have a good one fellas.

Go Pirates, I don't give a f*ck if they lose 120 games, they're still my team.
WS Prediction: Angels vs. Marlins
kOna, the Pirates are going to whoop up on your Cubbies in Wrigley. Now go and kill all members of that Greek guy's family who had the goat.
;)

i've got bonds on my fantasy team. how's he doin?
- JazX0
he ain't playin' he's crying sick.
- GreedoLives0
ha nice comeback for the sox today. classic.
still wish they wouldn't strand runners on bases constantly, that's their biggest killer.and come on, yeah, rivera is the greatest ever, but don't tell me the fenway faithful wouldn't have given him the boo bird after that crap. you could put jesus on the mound and if he pitched shite, he'd hear about it.
