The Bitter Rivals Thread

[KenFougere]

Padroia had time to read the paper while waiting for A-Rod to reach 2nd base after Manny's quick throw in . . .

[SDL]

Is there nothing he won't do while running the bases? First he strikes the ball out of Bronson's glove. Then he throws an elbow at Padroias groin when sliding into second. Now he's yelling at infielders trying to catch the ball. How low will he go? Stay tuned . . .

Seems that once a player puts on pinstripes, he mutates into a jerk (and believe me, I mean a MUCH stronger word). Example: Graig Nettles...an ok guy when he played for the Twins and Indians..he becomes a Yankee and damn near ends Bill Lee's career by trying to rip his arm out of his socket.

Giambi...Clemens, Damon, A-Rod, Randy Johnson..all acted like jerks the instant they became Yankees. I doubt The Big Unit tried to beat up cameramen in other cities...

Only one Yankee I ever liked...Jim Bouton.

I bet your mother told you not to use that word.

No, she was American

[Mr. Pinstripes]

A-Rod and the Yankees have something to say.

So we gave you one in our house...

So who was that blonde, A-Rod?

Giambi's always been a wild one in Oakland. It just so happens that that he came onto the spotlight in NYC.

Clemens ... he spent 13 years in Boston, so he inherited this from the locals (mostly the Beantown fans, I presume).

Johnny Demon already cemented his idiot mentality up in Chowdaville. A-Rod never even said much in Seattle or Texas, at least from what I'd seen. Randy Johnson? Boy, that's going low. It's the crazy reporters that snuck out of the bushes that spooked him. They'd have done the same thing had he gone to the Mets instead.

Now then, we interrupt this smackypoo-fest for an honorable announcements from the Grand Poobah of this forum:

THAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA YANKEES WINNNNNNNNNN!

Sing it, Frankie! Start spreadin' the news!

Not sure why this is on The Onion, as it is completly true.

Tells the li'l whippersnappin' young 'un that we've also got Pettitte as our ace, then Wang, Moose and Clippard.

Hey, how's Dice-K's ERA doin'? I heard he did nicely last time!

AHH, Mr. Youkilis, the pride of my future college (GO BEARCATS). For Cincinnati being such a great baseball town, it seems weird that it's largest college has produced only 1 active player and I don't know who else because UC isn't even listed in Baseball Almanac's section on college baseball.

[Dirt Dog]

I see A-Rod had many fans at the game cheering him on. I guess Blondes do have more fun.

I'm gonna tell you a story
I'm gonna tell you about my town
I'm gonna tell you a big bad story, baby
Aww, it's all about my town
Yeah, down by the river
Down by the banks of the river Charles
(aw, that's what's happenin' baby)
That's where you'll find me
Along with lovers, muggers, and thieves
(aw, but they're cool people)
Well I love that dirty water
Oh, Boston, you're my home
(oh, you're the Number One place)
Frustrated women
(I mean they're frustrated)
Have to be in by twelve o'clock
(oh, that's a shame)
But I'm wishin' and a-hopin, oh
That just once those doors weren't locked
(I like to save time for my baby to walk around)
Well I love that dirty water
Oh, Boston, you're my home
(oh, yeah)
Because I love that dirty water
Oh, oh, Boston, you're my home
(oh, yeah)
Well, I love that dirty water
(I love it, baby)
I love that dirty water
(I love Baw-stun)
I love that dirty water
(Have you heard about the Strangler?)
I love that dirty water
(I'm the man, I'm the man)
I love that dirty water
(Owww!)
I love that dirty water
(Come on, come on)

. . . not so much.

The "Keystone Kops" gave it away . . .

Sorry about the news on Clemens, but tell George that I hear Nolan Ryan might be available.
