    I can't stand Aroid, but would welcome him over Rex Fkng Hudler, any day. I'm stuck (with MLB Extra Innings) Fox Sports KC, ....

    I know Rob, when I was living in Florida I had the same package as you and yes he is extremely annoying.

    Jmo coming along nicely, get the offense rolling early to give him and the team another win.

    ...anyone notice that ARod was not at the Jeter ceremony this past Sunday?... anyone think it was just a coincidence?...not me, I seriously doubt if the bastid was even invited.

    ...when asked about it, ARod shrugged it off and said "I was with my Mom".

    Abe Lincoln said you can fool some of the people some of the time but not all of the people all of the time. Saw photos of A-hole with his new bunk buddy J-Lo taken that say. Allegedly A-hole was invited but did not show. As old ESPN Board Members will recall, many touted A-hole as superior but the real Yankee Fans were not fooled. A-rod rode the "devils train" disgraced him self and the franchise. I'd like to think for those reasons he'd have been embarrassed to show up. But then again a pathological liar such as A-hole probably has no shame. When watching that ceremony we saw some of Jeters Team Mates, all classy and A-hole would have been the turd in the punch bowl. In addition to Jeter getting his just rewards, I was also pleased that Hideki Matsui, (another favorite) got a great round of applause and recognition. So A-hole thanks for not coming, you and all your stats could not diminish Mt Yankee in any way shape or form.

    Ya know baseball history is not wholly about stats. A-roid was always a self-absorbing individual on the playing field. It was always about him...............never saw him as a team player............good riddance. At least he's not a hypocrite. Just stay away from the Yankees.
    For me, his achievements were never for the team. He only did things for himself. I wonder how he feels he'll never have a plaque in monument park. Oh yeah, I don't really care! All I know is he does not belong.

    A victory tonight means picking a game up on the Os who lost another one run game. JoMo has been holding his own. Yankees have swept the Bobosox in an abbreviated series & the Cubs on the road so far. Tonight's game would be an opportunity for another road sweep.

    and I thought I was stuck with Rex Hudler, again, but nooooo. Wonder if Pete Rose is still hiding under Aroids table. Who's fella-ting who...?

    From the looks of things, this game has extra innings written all over it and if it goes long enough,
    we may witness some tornadoes! Yeah, I am a secret weather geek!

    After 3 innings Duffy has not allowed a hit.......I take back the extra inning
    scenario.

    By all rights JMo should have been out of the 2nd inning. Castro is a defensive liability and Carter is
    no prize as a first baseman. The kid gives up two singles and the Yankees are in the hole... down 0-2.

    2 runs because headley takes forever to get the ball out of his glove and castro another bad play at 2nd short hopping carter for what should have been an easy inning ending DP. Will be 2 ERbecause of bullshit baseball rule that you can't anticipate a double play. Cant wait for torres to get up here to play 2nd and tighten the defense and move castro over to 3rd.
