    Had a chat with a Tiger Fan at Sam ash Music yesterday. Gave my condolences on Ilitch, fine owner, backed his team wanted to win. Then we spoke of the tadpoles running the Yankees. Yep old Steiney has come up with some really foolish thoughts. I also saw video a while back that Steiney would consider A-rod for Monument Park. Bad gig all around, Steiney must think the Yankee Fan Base is a collection of morons. Even Red Sox Fans I've talked to say George is rolling in the grave, Then Marchand states in an article that Girardi hates his twice a day media meetings. Small wonder, if I had to face Matthews and Marchand twice daily I'd have an attitude as well. Come on Steiney, sell the God Dam Team.

    ^^^can you imagine what The Boss's response would have been when asked about Ellsbury and ARod?

    ...and yeah, Marchand and Matthews are terrible.

    Saw another article on ESPN about the possibilities of A-hole becoming manager, what an insult to the great franchise players the Yankees have had. Going to be watching River Avenue Blues closely through spring Training to see what comments come from the fan base.

    He is a douche-bag, but he will not prevent us from going to and watching the games. If I see him at the Home Opener, I will get his autograph and mail it to Ron. :rotfl:

    I'd have to be the scum bag to assassinate A-Roid for tarnishing our black empire's legacy, on Opening Day none the less....

    Ilitch did what he could to field a contending team, yet he really pissed off a ton of season tix holder's just 2 yrs ago, and again last, by jacking prices up not only for tix, but everything he could.

    A buddy I lost last August, had seasons tix for the Bengals, and caught his first game in 1950 at age 10, never missed a home opener after. This will be his first missed Opener, after 66 consecuttive.... RIP JG-

    Tiger's fans were pissed when Max walked off, yet they weren't holding their breathes, and half of them were glad to see his hold out Boras game go. Same with Fister, Porcello, and overall the Tigers failure to keep Dombrowski, tossed many fans over the sides, .... I'm not a Tiger's fan, and they've sure spoiled some Yanx hopes in years past, got to give Illitch his due...

    Saw video yesterday of Cashman and another Yankee crook CC Sabathia praising A-hole to the skies. With Steinies tw cents and Moron Marchand writing the types of articles slamming Girardi at every opportunity I smell a conspiracy. I've supported Girardi since day one and though he does do some stuff that makes one wonder, he's done best as can be expected. I'd have to say if A-hole was made manager of the Yankees I'd quit watching games as well. At 62 years of fandom approaching I could not find another team. In A-holes Case becoming manager would be another fuck up move up action. We've seen enough of that with Cashman.

    A-Roid's only requirement to be a Yankee manager " under " these owners is that he knows how to kiss ass!

    ...evidently Hal's memory is not very good because he must have forgotten that ARod sued him, the Yanx, MLB, Bud Selig, the team doctor, the MLBPA, hell, he sued everyone except the hot dog vendor.

    ...said this before and I'll say it again, "fuck ARod".

    Nope, not at all. I did the same thing to Ricky Boy. We follow each other on Twitter and Facebook. Even if you can't stand him, he is always nice to me. :biglaugh:

    ...Lil, I beg of you, if you see ARod and get his autograph send it to Rick...if your were to send it to me I'd promptly use it for toilet paper...might be a bit rough but the discomfort would be well worth it.

    I thought Ricky Boy blew himself out of his Facebook, or did he create a Caitlyn like Trans-changer FB Alias...

    No Rob, I have no idea what Ricky does anymore. I do however follow ARod on Social Media. He has nothing better to do with himself and sometimes gets back to me when I ask him a question. :clap: :biglaugh:

    Meh...That was PC doublespeak. Hal was just avoiding the landmine questions.

    We should realize that there is Hal's official position that he states aloud, his business position which remains behind closed doors, and his personal position that resides in his head.

    As fans we have to understand that even if he shares our sentiments, he can't speak them to the media. Even his father learned that lesson.
