Yankees - The Thread in Perpetuity

Predicts the A's take 2/3.

Do I detect some small loss of swagger in that post?

Since the A's lost last night 7-0, I have to re-predict.

I see, you know predicting can be so....well damn unpredictable!!! LOL


Kuroda vs Kazim tonight. Should be a good game. Best of luck to you.

Dickey looks like he might be hurt. Nothing will derail a hot team faster than injuries to the starting pitching.

[Mattrick]

I missed the game today, hope that's not the case. If he misses a couple starts we can manage but five plus...Something happened with Cecil the other game too that could have been a groin pull too but I haven't heard if it was anything serious or day to day.

All the more reason I stick to my contention that one cannot determine in the first week of June that their team is poised to avoid losing 3+ consecutive games for the rest of the season. Injuries are the most unpredictable thing in sports and we've all seen how just one to a crucial player can rapidly change things.

Can we predict how many innings the lights will stay on? Not sure what happened with that game last night, but that was a long delay when the bank of lights went out (or according to another report, never came on to begin with)

You definitely took my words too far. I was talking short term, in terms of holding our AL East lead. We just need to keep playing .600 baseball for awhile.

Bottom of the 8th in Baltimore, 5-1 lead. Happ pitched fantastic and it's good to see us getting these small ball runs again because that's when we're most effective.

[Mattrick]

WOOO We took it and split the four gamer with Baltimore. Watching the battle of Merlin vs. Flagg and it seems Flagg is winning.

[Randall Flagg]

2/3 Woo hoo!. Go A's.

[Merlin1958]

2/3 Woo hoo!. Go A's.

Bah Humbug!!

[Merlin1958]

Hey Jerome, did they consult you on this? It's very reminiscent of your style!!! LOL

Notice the amount of the check. Nice touch!!!

[Mattrick]

New York.....we're here.

[Merlin1958]

Have some hotel peanuts, we'll be right there!!!!! We'll put this, Canadian uprising right to bed!! LOL


Ever met, Tanaka?

[Mattrick]

I've met Tatanka

[Merlin1958]

I've met Tatanka

You realize that is pretty "Gay", right? LOL LOL LOL



The Yanks have more titles than your guy has cloth covering his "junk"!!! LOL


Edit: "Blue Jays"????? What kinda message does that send to fans? How sweet when they "chirp" and "twitter". I leave out poison!! LOL Damn flying rodents!! LOL

[Mattrick]

Indians are gay?

[Merlin1958]

Indians are gay?

No, just your Toronto Indian" is!!! LOL

If you are gonna come into a "N.Y. Yankees" thread and spout on about another team, well you need to have some thick skin son!!!

BTW, why the fuck would you post that pic for the fucking gay, "Blue Jays"? I heard that when the team began all the players were mystified by the bats. They thought they would get "Hockey Sticks"!! LOL

[Mattrick]

He's not affiliated with the blue jays lol. He's affiliated with the then World Wrestling Federation lol You asked if I've met Tanaka but I have met former WWF wrestler Tatanka whose names are similar.

Yeah, okay NO SOUP FOR YOU, NEXT!!! LOL

[Mattrick]

That's okay, I don't need any soup. I'm having broiled Yankee the next few days.

We'll just have to see about that!!! LOL

I've heard but never understood that joke. It's not as if the Blue Jays (original or subsequent) were made up of Canadian players.

GEORGE: Don't you understand? It's not about him. To have a line as perfect as 'jerk store' and to never use it. I, I couldn't live with myself.

ELAINE: See, there are no jerk stores. It..it's just a little confusing, is all.

Oh well, they can't all be diamonds!! LOL

[Still Servant]

Love the Tatanka picture. Never would have thought I'd see a picture of him in a Yankees thread.

[Merlin1958]

Okay, we're up 2-1, bottom of the 5th and Tanaka is dealing. Jeter just got his second hit of the evening, which leaves him roughly 70 hits behind Honus Wagner for No. 6 on the all time list and the SS with the most hits ever in MLB history.
