if the shoe fits.......

i'm sure you weren't rubbing in 2011 or 2012 to us awful Sox fans

deal with it

You forgot 2009 and 2010

I'll give you a Mets fan's perspective on handling it:






4-0 vs the yankees this season, bitches!!!

And they're 4 games out of the playoffs.

So the Metsies can say they're the reason the Yanks won't be in the dance this season.

Spec-fucking-tacular.

I don't wanna knock any Mets fans, that's like stealing quarters from a homeless person.

LETS GO OAKLAND!

I'll probably adopt the A's as my rooting interest in the playoffs this year, if for nothing else that it might mean a Moneyball sequel.

Good movie.

Indians keep winning, Rangers keep losing. But now they got the Astros I expect them to start winning.

TAM has 1 BAL, 3 NYY, 3 TOR

TEX has 3 HOU, 4 LAA

CLE has 2 CWS, 4 MIN

Cleveland always has trouble @MIN. Ohh great!

I'm thinking Terry Francona knocking the team that threw him under the bus out of the playoffs would be pretty cool.


Probably pretty unlikely, but the possibilities are enticing!

That would be awesome, but remember the Indians have Nick Swisher, whose season has another week left to it before he shuts it down and turns into a black hole in that lineup.

Translation: you have shamed me, homeless vagrant of a Mets fan. I have no further retort. My team sucks so many donkey penises that we couldn't overcome your pathetic, pitiful excuse for a national league franchise even once. I'd commit suicide if I didn't think hell was full of Red Sox fans.

Oops -


CC Sabathia won’t be making his final start of the season, as the Yankees [ame="[MEDIA=twitter]382168422869504000[/MEDIA]"]announced[/ame] that the left-hander suffered a Grade 2 hamstring strain in his most recent start and will need eight weeks or so to recover.
So in one sense it’s actually good timing, because if Sabathia had injured his hamstring earlier in the season the Yankees would have been without him in the rotation for a couple months. On the other hand it’s an abrupt end to a very disappointing season that saw him allow the most earned runs in the league on the way to a career-worst 4.78 ERA in 211 innings.
Sabathia clearly wasn’t his old for most of the season, struggling to maintain his peak velocity after dealing with elbow problems last year. He pitched somewhat better than the ugly ERA would suggest, posting a solid 175/65 K/BB ratio, but his average fastball has fallen from 93.8 miles per hour in 2011 to 92.3 mph last year and 91.1 mph this season. For a 33-year-old with a ton of mileage on his arm, it’s a very worrisome trend.

LOL! Just bustin yankee chops, man. What else do we Mets have except "scoreboard?"

I see Big D has posted the article explaining how CC is the latest yankee to quit on this season.

 

[BeaverShaver]

I don't know what is better, watching Scoscia's smug expression while the Angels underachieve, or watching Texas free-fall yet again. Priceless......

Yea, not much of it left.

As for the Mets, I'd feel better about things this morning if I were a Met fan, your team has a better future as built right now. Lots of promising arms in that system.

You forgot 2009 and 2010

they were in the playoffs in 2009

got swept by Anaheim, Papelbon blew 2 or 3 run lead in game 3

 

[HammerDown]

Hammer, if you're still awake - did you decide to come to Long Island or not? If you are, better bundle up because the weather turned crisp yesterday.

So.....yankeees.....How dead are they?

I liked the sound of the Hamptons when it's warm. A cold Long Island? Not so much.

PED's, yes or no?

Sox are my 2nd fav team but payback for '07 would be sweet revenge

Greatness is its own reward.

Los Angeles mayor Eric Garcetti said Sunday that he wanted to rename a street near Dodger Stadium after Vin Scully, but the legendary announcer issued a statement via the team saying he’s not interested in the honor:

The mayor of Los Angeles has a great deal more important things to do than name a street after me. And if he is considering the idea, better the street should be named after Walter or Peter O’Malley than myself.
​

Class personified.

Mariano? Not so much.

"So when are you going to rename that street for me again?"
