where as the forcast for the Nation is glum and cloudy.

Feasting on the weak will eventually get exposed. Outright bitch slappings by the Saux all year and coming up short against the Angels dictates more to me then compiling wins over the lesser teams.

yea it's a shame they determine division leaders by overall record and not H2H against certain teams.

I dont have a horse in the race but would be concerned about not being able to beat a good team. It is a bloated first place

meh, only one team each year can be the first to 50 wins. Oh, and 60.

True but it's a shame that your RP will have no arms left by the time the playoffs come around.

Yesterday was good today is better.

I'm going to the Yankees game tonight. I'm in New Jersey for work, and got offered a ticket by some co-workers. I'm looking forward to it, and it might be the only time I ever root for the Yankees.

In town and dont look me up ?

I asked you once before if you were close to Hackettstown, and I thought you told me 'No' ?

The Yankees opportunity just came to me late last night, and I'll be going straight from work to the game.

I am in Hackettstown, NJ often, so, if that is close, there will be many opportunities to get together for a or 10

Im not close to hacketstown. Im fairly close to the stadium though. If you are ever in again we can meet in manhattan for a few . The stadium is a subway ride away from me . enjoy the game

He only lives a little over an hour from me and we have never hooked up yet either, even when I drove right by his exit a few times every summer

He always came off as a snobby type of dousch bag

sorry. i thought Ted and I were PMing

A wonderful day in Yankee country.

I didnt know yankee country went all the way to the swamps in NOLA. Cause here in the south, being called a Yankee is fighting words.

Classic Sox/Yankees last night. Had a great time watching that game with my brother. Beckett and A.J were awesome. Arod needed that kind of hit for his psyche. That was great baseball.

Even though the end was a severe kick in the nuts, I do agree, that was the best game I have seen all season. I'm not ready to call this a repeat of 2006 but the Sox offense is in bad shape right now. Francona has to make changes. First and foremost, Tek needs to be on the bench. Martinez should be behind the plate as much as possible. Move Youk back to 1st, Lowell to 3rd.

Lester should be able to win Sunday so I'll just cross my fingers and hope Buchholz can relive Sept. 1, 2007. If he was pitching for the Yankees last night a no hitter would have been a lock.

being a Yankee is being a fan of the NY Yankees whereas a yankee are them fool azz people from the north. so being called a Yankee is acceptable whereas being called a yankee is true fighting words.

CC is perfect through 4. Yep perfect through 4. Hex, jinx, wammies, wammies, wammies, wammies STOP!!!

That should do it.

Well at least that's over. Now if they can score a freaking run. It's only been 19 damn innings.

I guess its better to be a spank, than a yank....

Damn these boards have been awfully quiet lately. no word from the Yankee haters. Let's see it went something like this. the bums lost eight srtaight to the Sox they lucky if they make the wild card .....etc.
well the sox have fallen they have now lost 5 in a row soon to 6 as it is 9-1 in the 5th. The Yankees have a 7.5 gm lead on the sox and the best record in the AL so to all those Yankee haters

One post was enough but double post...you're just rubbing it in now.

Sox have to get Wake and DiceK back to have any shot of doing some real damage. Penny is dreadful.

Dice K is awful. Good thing for the sox the yanks cant beat Beckett in the playoffs. A short series would mean the end for the pinstripes.

Awful is a bit of a reach. This season he has been hurt (or out of shape, depending on who you hear it from). Last season he was really good. He doesn't need to be an ace. They need him to be a #4-#5 starter. If he and Wake can come back healthy around the first of September, they can run a rotation of Beckett, Lester, Buchholz, Wakefield and Matsuzaka. That should be enough to stay ahead of TEX and TB.

Oh and Sox/Yanks can not play in the divisional round so you have no worries on the short series.

Stop ruining my arguments with facts

Clinch the AL east and best record in the AL
