The best thread I've seen in monthes.

[Gvac]

I liked that headline so much I made it my sig pic.<br />

[spoon]

<p>Funny but why a disgrace?&nbsp; The Tigers were a top notch team all year and they won hands down playing as a team.&nbsp; Something the yanks haven't done in years.&nbsp; Sterling and Susan on the radio broadcast were so condescending towards the series loss and the Tigers, just like most of talk radio, that it made me scream.&nbsp; Even the board yank fans&nbsp;just thought the yanks would roll over them even though they had/have the best starting pitching and a good bullpen during the regular season.&nbsp; </p>

Once again Spoony is on the Money with the comments.&nbsp; Unlike Marc Who Loves&nbsp; A &quot;C&quot;, who takes a shot at the Classiest player in the game today, Derek Jeter.&nbsp; I don't know who you root for C Lover, but if you cant appreciate a dude like DJ then you dont know much about baseball.

<p>I do like the use of the Tigers' logo &quot; D &quot; in disgarce and also on their towels saying Destiny.</p><p>You make a good point that the Yankee loss shouldnt be considered a disgrace because they lost to a team with the best ERA and was the best team in baseball for almost 5 months.</p><p>What does make it a disgrace is how you look at the fact that they were up 1-0 in the series and their offense, which was supposed to be the best ever, and pitching, which in all honesty was never any good,&nbsp;was completely inept when it needed to be. Once again throwing a 19 spot on the Devilrays in August doesnt win playoff games.</p><p>Its a disgrace that you go 20+ innings w/out scoring a run despite having runners on in almosty everyone of those innings.</p><p>And when did Derek Jeter become so untouchable that you cant mock him ?</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

[ChrisTheCop]

<p>If you were playing poker, and had 200million in chips to the other guys 83million in chips, and you lost the game....wouldnt you consider it a disgrace?</p><p>and i said it in another thread, i'll say it here. Derek Jeter, classy???!! He is truly the FACE of the yankees;&nbsp; Smug, Cocky, and self congratulating. Tino Martinez gave all the team's remaining class to Joe Torre when he left...and Joe's taking it with him as he leaves.&nbsp;</p>

[spoon]

And I really want to know how this team's O got labeled the best ever!??&nbsp; Fuck that?&nbsp; Due to what?&nbsp; They beat up on shitty pitching when it meant shit.&nbsp; They ranked second in the league THIS year in average to the Twins (.287 MN /.285 NYY / .284 Tor) and 5th in HRs.&nbsp; So WTF??&nbsp; Perhaps you guys thought you could field a lineup of 12 batters, then you would be even better bc of all the all-stars on the bench.&nbsp;

[JimBeam]

<p>Plus did they come anywhere near the runs scored by the Sox either last year or the year before when they set the record ?</p><p>One of the stats I saw posted was that the Yankees had 47 ( maybe 42 ) games of All-Star game experience on their roster.</p>

[spoon]

<p>I see a new ad campaign, &quot;Make an all-star game, hit a yankee payday!&quot;&nbsp; We don't care if we have a shortstop we'll always have room and money for you.</p>

[JimBeam]

<p>Its great how so many ESPN &quot; experts &quot; were wrong.</p><p>Of 19 guys only 4 have a chance of getting their WS picks right.</p><p>Buster Olney, Steve Phillips &amp; Gary Gilette all picked the A's to win the WS.</p><p>Enrique Rojas ( who ?????? ) is the only one to pick the Mets.</p><p>The other 15 picks were Yanks (&nbsp;6 guys ), Twins ( 7 guys ) &amp; Dodgers ( 2 guys ).</p><p>Sorry here's the link :</p><p><a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/playoffs2006/news/story?id=2610409" target="_blank">http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/playoffs2006/news/story?id=2610409</a></p>

[ChrisTheCop]

<p>Yankee fans are still getting used to their curse; The curse of Hilary. Ever since she moved here from Arkansas, put on that cap and said she was a big fan (and New Yorkers believed her!), the yankers havent been able to pull off a world series victory. My guess is it'll continue as long as she stays in public office.</p><p>Possibly the only reason to vote for Hilary Clinton in 2008.</p><p>4 more years! 4 more years!&nbsp;</p>

[Chip196]

Rooting for the Yankees is like rooting for the dealer at a BlackJack table.&nbsp; I am glad they lost.

[phixion]

<p>any team that wont retire jackie robinsons number deserves to lose and no one fucking bullshit me and say mariano is allowed to do it because he was wearing it before baseballs mandate, because heres the thing what jackie robinson did transcended simple sports it transcended baseball. IT CHANGED THE WORLD. and any team that wont recognize that deserve to lose. fuck them all fuck what they stand for.</p><p>Jackie Robinson did what Jessie OWens did, changed the nation. and until the yankees understand that then im here hoping their plane goes down making a cross country flight to play the athletics, just so i could piss on the ashes. &nbsp;</p><p>RETIRE 42</p>

<p>keithy see baseball granted amnesty to those players who were wearing it before all teams were asked to retire the number. so no they really arent breaking any rules, their just being pigheaded and not recognizing something because it wasnt done by a yankee, the second to last team in baseball history to allow a black man to play on it......</p><p>and crb1? if a team not doing the right thing isnt a good enough reason to hate them then nothing ever is. jackie robinson changed the mentality of a people, he changed the mentality of a nation. what jackie robinson accomplished was far far more important than any homerun babe ruth ever hit, or&nbsp;any ball mantle ever caught. and yes i hate the yankees for thinking they are better than&nbsp;the game.&nbsp;oh and the number 1 reason i hated them is because everysingle yankee fan in my own age group became yankee fans in 96. number 2 reason tehir fucking payroll, number 3 cause i havent meta&nbsp; single yankee fan who cant have an argument where they dont say '26 world championships' 4 to quote a website linked to me by MIA SuperClerk 'rooting for the yankees is like rooting for bill gates to win the lottery' guy i started the original yankee hate thread :Fuck the Yanks and if it wasnt more than a year ago i would search it and link it for you. </p><p>but if it makes any consolation the only thing in sports i hate more than the yankees as a whole is kobe bryant as an individual. </p>

[phixion]

<p>by not retiring his number i feel that the yankees believe they are better and bigger than what he accomplished. and mariano rivera not being man enough to give it up out of repect to th emost important athelete of all time is an abomination.</p><p>maybe you can forgive fairweather fans but i myself cannot. </p>

[absinthe]

<p>Retiring Robinson's number was more about (in my opinion) giving future generations a reminder of Jackie Robinson.&nbsp; I know when I went to games as a kid I would always ask my dad about the retired numbers.&nbsp; At least in my mind, when thinking about a few of the all-time greats, Robinson is not in the first thought.&nbsp; It usually is Ruth, Cobb, Bob Gibson, Ted Williams and Satchel Paige.&nbsp; I know he didn't do anything on the field or anything, but I'm always amazed that no one mentions Branch Rickey.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Here is a question I often wonder: What will the Yankees/MLB do when its time to retire Rivera's number?</p>
