    Yes, I understand that workers sometimes have off days, even bad days at work, but this Yankee bullpen
    has had off days for a long time and it does not seem to be improving. What would a boss do with this
    bullpen?

    I’m hoping Lynn can go more than five innings, but I do not think it’s in his DNA!

    Good morning everybody. It’s a beautiful day in the New York area. The Yankees are ending their regular season
    in the Bronx tomorrow. Hoping for a winning Saturday.

    Just researched NYC weather, by game time so nice even Boner couldn't screw it up. Down here temps are in the high 80's (87) and another dose of thundershowers is going through today. I hope that Boner noticed no one cared that S&S were out of the lineup. As Steppenwolf once sang "who needs ya". Boner and Rothschild need a pre-game search of who can pitch if Lynn does his Five and Jive routine. Don't need no more games like last night. Still waiting for Judge to whack one over the wall.

    It's 68 degrees here but it's damp so that's why I feel cold.

    It's a split-screen madness day..
    Hooyaaa...
    Yanx vs the low-flying suckass O's.
    & -
    The Rollin' Tsunami Crimson Tide

    "roll along rollon rose of Cimarron"...

    Let's see what baboon can do to fk this one up..
    I hate to admit it but it doesn't look like #28 in 2018. If that were to happen it would be 100% luck.

    This Team is too often loose and sloppy; anything but tight.

    As Michael said- they do not play to Win they play not to lose.
    Great teams play with consistency. Yankees have beaten some of the best teams in baseball with sweeps. And they lost too many times to the worst teams in baseball.
    • Great teams set the tone and Pace they do not allow other teams to dictate as much. This is why they play up too good teams and down the bad teams.
    This is not how a championship-caliber great team plays.
    • Little to no plate discipline, way too many strikeouts, with an over abundance of home runs, more HR's than any other Yankee teams of the past
    • 2 Often sloppy defense.
    • Too many mental errors on the basepaths, on defense and offense.
    • Lack of situational hitting.
    • Over-reliance on the long ball.
    • A bullpen that is overrated. A closer that only knows how to open the door of opportunity; you piece of shit Chapman.
    If this team were to win a World Series regardless of how they do it; even if it look like Perfection; we all know, better than any this is an inconsistent consistent and not a well-balanced team.

    As many here have stated throughout the year, Yankees have an Immature manager.
    • He cannot make a lineup card out proper.
    • He does not know when to pull a Pitcher, and is incapable of knowing which Pitcher to put on the mound given the unique situation requirements.
    • Boner is not a leader by nature and does not know how to fire up and motivate a team to play with consistency 100% of the time. Does not know how to discipline a team.
    • words he does not know how to utilize a bullpen or manage one. Baboon cannot manage his way out of a paper bag with a flamethrower or a chainsaw.
    • Starting pitching is often problematic. Yankees have yet to find a fifth starter.
    • Yankees do not have a true DH without sacrificing someone on the field.
    • CC needs to retire go home and open up hamburger stand. Yankees need 2 New SP's next year. They need to jettison 2/3 of the bullpen.
    They need to jettison Trashman who does not know how to build a team or make a trade.
    Trashman is never capable of dictating the terms of a trade, and is 100% Reliant on the opposing teams demands and or offers...

    sigh....

    I hate to say it. BUT- I have more anxious exuberance looking forward to the tsunami rolling Crimson Tide, Roll Along roll on

    At times I just can't help myself. :smiley-pat:
    153 games worth of frustration, 6 entire months worth wrapped up in one post.

    Crimson Tide opens game kicking off to Texas A&M. A & M's first play of the game on their own 20 interception on the 25-yard line. Alabama's first play the game 25 yard touchdown pass. Three entire plays 2 being on defense, with one offensive play & the score is 7 to 0. One hell of a game this one should be.

    Jimbo Fisher's first year at Texas A&M after replacing Bobby Bowden at Florida State.

    Never in the history of NCAA football has one team won 5 championships in 10 seasons.
    Saban's is a living current legend amongst many past giants.
    Tied with Paul Bear Bryant with 6 national titles. Bryant won 3 national titles in the 60s and three again in the 70s. Sabans 1st was 2003 at LSU /.
    Sanan's time as head coach for the Dolphins was a. NFL career disaster. Not to mention he was stuck with the Ricky Williams Fiasco.

    Ntm- Having to Coach for any Wayne Huizenga owned team is like being assigned to rearrange chairs on the deck of the Titanic by the captain.

    More Championshios than: Bobby Bowden, John McKay, Tom Osborne, Barry Switzer, Joe Paterno, Knute Rockne,

    Can you let them hit the ball instead of walking them? You had him 0-2 & you walk him!
    One thing you are not throwing strikes.

    Excuse me.....strike ‘em out & throw ‘em out...
