The Bitter Rivals Thread

[SDL]

I remember when the Sox wanted to get rid of him a couple of years ago, I heard that he was joking around the Yankee clubhouse asking if there is any room for him. Isn't he from the Bronx too? There was rumors that he was interested in possiblely comeing to the Yankees so he could be back home.

Manny wised up when he realized he'd have to cut off his dreads...unlike Judas Damon...

Also, he wouldn't be wearing that Beantown do-rag either. :P

I remember Manny saying he'd met A-Rod around 2003 and how he'd wanted to be teammates with him. Didn't he realize they were never going to be teammates?

Oh well, Manny kills the Yanks again and doesn't get walked. Those 3 runs meant the difference between a win and a loss.

Geez, is this target practice at Fenway Park again? They're running around the Texas Rangers again. 5-3 win over the budding Rangers.

And it looks like Kyle Farnsworth started his suspension today for plunking Manny. You NEVER throw at someone, regardless if you are mad at him or not. You never do. The only thing that works best when you're angry at a batter is just intentionally walk him. It causes a base on balls, but it's better than getting suspended for beaning a batter.

And it looks like this is the current movie that the New York Yankees are watching right now:



Just don't get flocked now.

Yeah, right..

I haven't been following this thread that much only check it here and there, So I didn't catch on, I feel dumb now

You could be a couple of trained Squirrels, three midgets in an overcoat or a computer that has developed artificial intellegence & free will for all I know.

:/

No intelligence, artificial or not. If intelligent, then RSox fan.

Manny...

Pitch to Manny, or have Manny be ejected for objecting to terrible calls-still the sox win. Theo does a great job of supplying Francona with bodies, and Francona knows where to put them.

I got the double steal I asked for.

These plate calls have been horrible. Cannot possibly be anything but deliberate. What game is Selig playing at?

I volunteer Houdini cat to call balls and strikes..as long as the balls don't have bells in them it will work. Can't be worse than the calls of the past few days.

Fellow RSox fans: Are we going to switch rivalry to Bal? Given that the pinstripes are getting faded and wavy? Winning by luck? If Pitbull pitches to Manny, he's going to pitch to sluggers on every team. Those L's are gonna pile up. Meanwhile, back in Boston, where every sport is winning...I mean, the BRUINS!

It must be something in the pharmaceutical water.

You're all quiet on my birthday. That's a shocker. And Boston swept the Texas Rangers clean out of Beantown. Who's looking for the same treatment we gave poor Texas?

At least you got a nice birthday present a near comeback win by the Cards, but then losing it in twelve.

But nevertheless, congratulations! A bit late, but better late than never.

In his own little "anti Yankee-anti Girardi" world...

[Urbanshocker13]

[Yankeebiscuitfan]

No. I believe that he trained his cats to attack them.

In that way he can act like Pontius Pilate...

Minus the Billy Martin knack for turning teams into winners...

I give him another year before the New York media rips him left and right and he goes overboard...
