The Bitter Rivals Thread

[YankeeMan]

Yeah, but the OVERALL score is still 27-7!

Hey, do you guys count 1904 [NYG refused to play series]?

Besides, our last ring is the most recent between us... Isn't it gorgeous?

*** BTW: On one side of the 2004 ring it mentions something about, "The Greatest Comeback in MLB History"

Yeah, I've got my lousy avatar and signature to remind me of that EVERYDAY. No matter who wins, I can't wait for the World Series to end this year! Well, almost anybody

Oh God . . . .

(Ken shaking his head while thinking to himself), "I can't believe he pulled that old one out of the hat AGAIN!" :dismay:

I just realized I've never posted on this forum before. Ever.

But, I thought it bears noting that in the past decade 2002-2012, the Yankee record against the Red Sox is 102-100. That includes the postseason. In itself, that it phenomenally close.

Thus, in their century of glory...greatest they've been since the days of Ruth as a pitcher, no less (!)....the Red Sox can only barely keep up with the Yankees....

Hi csh19792001, It's always nice to hear viewpoints from new people.
(But as far as your last remark, not so much... - - :joking

Thanks for the welcome, brother. Heading to Fenway Nova vs. Lester. Could be a gem. :crossfingers:

Lester has owned the Yankees thus far. 9-3 career.

Not tonight (YANKEES WIN!). Anywho, at the All-Star Break...

NYY 52-33 .612 X
Bos 43-43 .500 9.5

(Everyone else is irrelevant to this thread).


[FYI: Did you know that the Yankees, unlike the BoSux (see 1978), have never lost a 6+ game lead for the wildcard/division/league in team history? They lead the AL East by 7 at the break. Hey, I'm just trying to educate the masses. Hiya Ken! ]

Oh, how you must be eating this season up . . . .

[YankeeMan]

Not for nothing... But somebody told me the FIRST PLACE YANKEES got Ichiro in a trade today... Nah... That can't be right.

[YankeeMan]

Ah, for the first time this season, this weekend the RedSux visit...YankeeStadium.jpg

REALLY not looking forward to that or any other series. Not the way they're playing!

They'd probably lose the 2004 ALCS the way they're playing now. Scratch that, nobody could be that bad, (again) :choke:

[YankeeMan]

...the 2004 ALCS...:choke:

No need to re-open old wounds...

No need to re-open old wounds...

Question for you YM . . .

When the Yankees got Ruth, (for Christmas), he was an 'ace' caliber starting pitcher.

Why didn't they start him every 4th or 5th game and use him in the field the other games? - :disbelief: +
