    The team goes on a modest winning streak, and I’ve never seen so many jocks jump on the Yankee
    bandwagon. Oh, I’m happy but the freakin’ sports world is delirious. It’s only May, folks.
    And BTW, I still miss Gio.

    These sports "experts" we see on various channels covering various sports are indeed over the top... they fellate whoever is hot and lambaste whoever is not. It really is hilarious.

    Not sure what truly defines an "expert" but to me, their opinion carries no more weight than yours or mine while sitting at a bar discussing sport after doing 5 or 6 shots of Patron.

    The recent NFL draft is a good example...Mel fucking Kiper was pontificating on who each team should draft before it even happened...and then after the draft he tries to ridicule teams for taking someone else and even has the audacity to "grade" each team's draft...who the hell does this Eddie Munster looking twit think he is? I mean, if he's so fucking smart why are NFL teams not lined up to hire him to be their draft savior?... simply laughable.

    ^^^^what’s more laughable there are idiots out there who paid $7.00 to see how this Kiper “expert”
    graded every NFL team! Who the hell cares what this screaming meme says. Totally worthless crap.

    I wouldn't pay one cent for a story on ESPN.COM.

    Boone gets tossed...nice to see him stick up for Judge...Umps need to understand that his knees are higher than the average sized player, which by default, makes his strike zone higher.

    Oh well, the streak couldn't last forever...had a chance there in the 9th but couldn't make it happen.


    Still, taking 2 of 3 from the Jays in Toronto ain't all bad.

    Nice while it lasted. Now let’s start another winning streak.

    Tough way to end a long winning streak. Hicks with his usual stupidity with runners on.

    Hicks B'Avg is .125with RISP. Trashman gave him a very healthy extension and way overpaid him too. Is he the new Ellsbury?

    To think Starling Marte, Lindor and Showalter could have been signed when they were available, blows my mind.
