The Bitter Rivals Thread

[SDL]

MANNY!

BTW we're up 2-0

How are the Yankees doing?

[Mattingly]

I can see the NY Daily News Headline tomorrow:
BUGGED!
Joba collapses as Yankees drop first 2 games
Something tells me I'll never live last night's game down.

Torre could've asked the ump to delay the game because "they wuz buggin'" and then brought in Mo for the last out. With the runner on base, it could've been in our favor.

I remember Boston coming back from being down 0-2 in an ALDS and winning. In 1995, the Yanks were up 2-0, so it's no over until the next bottom of the 9th inning ends.

[KenFougere]

MANNY!

Well, let's put it this way . . . :think:


They have as many wins in this series as A-rod has hits. :nod:

[Mariano_Rivera]

Canadian Soldier ants, eh? Seems like Canada isin't done with messing with the AL East.

I Blame Canada for yesterday's loss

[runningshoes]

I Blame Canada for yesterday's loss

And we Canadians willingly accept that blame. :cap:

And we Canadians willingly accept that blame. :cap:

Will you also accept it when the Sox don't win the ALCS? :p

[KenFougere]

Will you also accept it when the Sox don't win the ALCS? :p


Now you're just reaching for anything . . . :rolleyes:

Hey, you never know. You guys could one. No, really you could! :shrug:

[SDL]

We sweep the Angels :)

Patriots win today as well

Not a bad day so far...

Just one more thing to complete it

A case of Rocket failure :)

It's now been said.
Lose this game and it'll be Torre's last in New York . . .

[SwissRedSoxFan]

TROOOOOT NIXXXOOOOONN

And the RedSox sweep...Red Sox is the most complete team. There is power, defense, speed, pitching, clutch hitting....

[Mariano_Rivera]

The Yankees win, the Giants win, and all right in the sports world.....

[Williamsburg2599]

The Yankees win, the Giants win, and all right in the sports world.....

You also forget to mention the Giants beat the Jets, basically the only way a NY football team could win this year without getting lucky is if they were playing another NY team.

[Mattingly]

All wishes granted, as was mine that Phil Hughes didn't fail us.

Ex-Beantowners Johnny Damon swatted a 3-run shot, and Trot Nixon turned a 1-run bases loaded single into a 3-run, 2-base error.

And it's a slow grounder to first ... :D ;) :p :laugh

TROOOOOT NIXXXOOOOONN

And the RedSox sweep...Red Sox is the most complete team. There is power, defense, speed, pitching, clutch hitting....
All of which will collapse to the Mighty Yankees!

Mr. Jeter...

Your tee-time for Tuesday morning at 10 has been confirmed.

[SDL]

:) :) :) :) :) :)

[Mattingly]

Now remember that y'all promised to play nice over here. :D

Man, talk about a lousy game last night.

[jo3]

What's the line from Yankee announcer, Michael Kay? Come on, help me out here....Oh man, I can't think of it.......


.......Oh yeah, I remember.......


SEE YA!

[SDL]

Now remember that y'all promised to play nice over here. :D

I actually thought it was a good game :)

Geez, Matt..seven years in a row now..the post-season el foldo?

Man, the chowder is gonna taste soooo goooood Friday night

[bakes781]

It was nice hear some Yankees fans with some class & chanting Torre instead of booing him as I expected. Hopefully in your case NY, Steinbrenner was listening. The Cashman is the one who needs to go. Look at your pitching staff! It's a joke. Mussina & Clemens are nearing extinction & Pettite can't be far behind. You're probably going to lose the MVP & closer. The last thing you want to do is change managers b/c guess what then you're looking ahead to a rebuilding year! :faint:

[maximum jack]

How's that extra 2 mil working out for you Johnny?

Geez, Matt..seven years in a row now..the post-season el foldo?

Man, the chowder is gonna taste soooo goooood Friday night
At least we made it to the Big Dance 6 times since 1996. We just weren't able to win more than 4.

After 2001, I figured we were all spoiled, could say "4 rings in __ years. As that number kept climing but the rings stood still, it didn't look as magnificent anymore. If we'd have sone in 2002 and possibly again in 2003, our spirits would've been picked right up.

Now Beantown of all people goes into the ALCS but we don't. Could it get any worse?

Like the various Mets fans this past week, I too will support the Cleveland Indians. They have good pitching and know how to win. Hopefully, they can, so y'all won't have too much of an advantage over us.

Oh, would someone please quite that Mets fan Autograph Collector and let him know that we at least *MADE* the playoffs?!

If Boston goes to the WS, they will have to either get swept or lose Game 7. They cannot be allowed to win it all again until 2090. It shall not be allowed to happen!

*steps off soapbox for now*

All I can say to this bleating is:

[KenFougere]

All I can say to this bleating is:

LET'S GO TRIBE. KICK BOSTON'S BUT!!!!!!

But. But, whatt? :rolleyes:

[Solair Wright]

Judgment Day: Will Torre finally get axed by Steinbrenner, or will he have a second wind? Find out this winter in the only "exciting" event in the Yankees' off-season.

Meanwhile, Boston has something to live for now - something the Yankees will not see this year - holding the World Series trophy. Who will prevail? Boston or Cleveland?

[Yankeebiscuitfan]

But. But, whatt? :rolleyes:

I could have used a synonym starting with an A, but I don't think that's allowed here.:think:

Slip of the pen. Not strange when English is not your native language.:confused: :shrug:

[Williamsburg2599]

Hmm.. I have a brief memory of some sort of bet made.. I can't remember the details though... Something about if something made it farther then something else, somebody would have to wear something for a long time... Hmmm.......

[Williamsburg2599]

If that bet was made the opposite way after the 2004 WS you would have had to use a Yankees avatar.

How about this, if the Yankees last longer than the Red Sox do than you have to wear and Yankees avatar and sig until Manny reports to ST :D

If the Red Sox last longer than the Yankees than I have to wear a Red Sox avatar and sig until New Years Day

Since the Red Sox have the division lead and the Yankees are 4th in the WC than you would have to use the Yankees avatar and sig longer than I would have to wear the Red Sox avatar and sig. Scared? :rofl:

Ah, there it is! :nod: time to pay up, MR.:)

[Mariano_Rivera]

Ah, there it is! :nod: time to pay up, MR.:)

Fine, PM me which avatar and sig you want me to use

I have to say they really turned it around from that point onwards though :D

Maybe I shoudl try it against next year onky before they fall into a huge hole :think:

Hey, Trot Nixon, nice hit. Who was that loserboy team that let you go?

I eat my fries with either ketchup, salt & pepper, BBQ sauce or hot sauce. Never mayo. Sometimes horse radish, but never mayo.

People often eat eggs with ketchup, but it's salt & pepper for me.

Anyway, hope you like the photo collection I'd nicely put together. Now then, so glad that Schill got shelled. Thanks again, Eric Gagne!

Now then, if anybody has a recipe for crow soup, then you'll be "crowing" for quite some time now.

I know that it ain't over until it's over. But just face it Williamsburg2599.99 :D, the odds are against you. Of 62 times that a team trailed 3-1 in the post season history, only ten managed to come back and win the series. :nod:

Been a die hard Yankee fan all my life and these are not happy times. I am not only a Yankee fan but a fan of the game and you just have to appreciate how the Bosox came back. Got off the floor and did it convincingly, hats off the Boston Red Sox.

I only hope that the Yanks realize the name of the game is pitching, especially in a 5 or 7 game series. It's the same old story if a teams pitching can negate that great Yankee hitting in a couple of games the Yanks are in trouble. There is not much time to come back, it's 5 or 7 games not 162 games. I hope they learned a lesson.

Mean time, the Bosox prove to be the best in the AL this year and a worthy opponent for any team in the NL.

[hellborn]

Classy post, SJ3.

[SDL]

So how's Jeter's golf game going? What's he shooting now?

And in regards to some guy who used to wear #18 in Boston...hope that extra $2 mil is buying him a lot of popcorn and snacks so he can watch his FORMER team in the series. (hint, D***n..games are on FOX 35 in your area)

Hats off to Kevin Millar, who unlike J****y D***n did not burn his bridges. Even saluted Pedroia for making him proud to see his #15 worn by a budding superstar...

[Mattingly]

Hey, SDL, which year is it? 2007 or 2090? I thought so! :D

Seriously, congrats, but I won't be the same if you guys win. Great pitching, nice performance, the bats cooked Cleveland the way I'd wished the Yanks would've, and Okajima came back just in time after he & Matsuzaka struggled in September.

Best of luck, but I presume you know who I'm rooting for. At least your guys played nicely.

Tessie is the Royal Rooters rally cry
Tessie is the tune they always sung
Tessie echoed April through October nights
After serenading Stahl, Dinneen and Young
Tessie is a maiden with a sparkling eye
Tessie is a maiden with a love
She doesn't know the meaning of her sight
She's got a comment full of love
And sometimes when the game is on the line
Tessie always carried them away
Up the road from "Third Base" to Huntington
The boys will always sing and sway

Two! Three! Four!

Tessie, "Nuf Ced" McGreevey shouted
We're not here to mess around
Boston, you know we love you madly
Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Tessie, you are the only only only

The Rooters showed up at the grounds one day
They found their seats had all been sold
McGreevey led the charge into the park
Stormed the gates and put the game on hold
The Rooters gave the other team a dreadful fright
Boston's tenth man could not be wrong
Up from "Third Base" to Huntington
They'd sing another victory song

Two! Three! Four!

Tessie, "Nuf Ced" McGreevey shouted

Boston, you know we love you madly
Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you

Tessie is the Royal Rooters rally cry
Tessie is the tune they always sung
Tessie echoed April through October nights
After serenading Stahl, Dinneen and Young
Tessie is a maiden with a sparkling eye
Tessie is a maiden with a love
She doesn't know the meaning of her sight
She's got a comment full of love
And sometimes when the game is on the line
Tessie always carried them away
Up the road from "Third Base" to Huntington
The boys will always sing and sway

Two! Three! Four!

Tessie, "Nuf Ced" McGreevey shouted

The Rooters showed up at the grounds one day
They found their seats had all been sold

Down by the banks of the river Charles

That's where you'll find me
Along with lovers, muggers, and thieves
(aw, but they're cool people)
Well I love that dirty water
Oh, Boston, you're my home
(oh, you're the Number One place)
Frustrated women
(I mean they're frustrated)
Have to be in by twelve o'clock
(oh, that's a shame)
But I'm wishin' and a-hopin, oh
That just once those doors weren't locked
(I like to save time for my baby to walk around)
Well I love that dirty water
Oh, Boston, you're my home
(oh, yeah)
Because I love that dirty water
Oh, oh, Boston, you're my home
(oh, yeah)
Well, I love that dirty water
(I love it, baby)

no offence but I hate the red sox fans who decide to cheer for every team near the red sox because they are well close to the red sox. They think the teams are related or something.

I don't cheer for all new york teams:

Baseball - Yankees
Football - Colts (including post 2006-07 season)
Hockey - Avlanche
Basketball - don't really care, maybe Heat, I use them in NBA Live 07

[JordanDL3891]

o my gosh, there is a new curse!!


When the red sox won this past world series, they won 3 years after they broke their 86 year winning streak. There last batter of this world series was number 33. As in 3 again. Cracking open the curse of the famous number 3 Babe Ruth.

The curse of the bambino relived, sending the red sox in another 86 year drought.

Enjoy! :gt

You do not know us NATIVE BOSTONIANS very well, do you. It is ingrained into us from birth. In fact players from all the teams interact with each other.

We grow up Sox fans

We grow ip Patriot fans

We grow up Celtics fans

We row up Bruins fans

We do NOT give that up if we move to another area. We remain loyal. If I had kids and they became Devil Ray fans, I'd have no problem...it would be where they grew up.

To Jordan and Yankeebiscuit...

I was born in Cambridge, MA (hospital was there)

I spent the first 28+ years of my life in Newton, MA

I am a cradle-to-grave Red Sox fan. Unlike the fans down here, I'm not a bandwagon fan. In fact, I laugh when I see a Bucs or Dolphins home game in TV and see all the empty seats.

We are loyal. Whe the Sox sucked, we still packed Fenway. When the Patriots were awful and would have 2-3 win seasons, The Fox was packed Same with the Bruins & Celtics.

Biscuit..If I didn't have commitments here (family), I'd be back home in an instant. In fact, I was supposed to be back this weekend for my college reunion but the wife couldn't go..and I didn't want to go without her.

My wife is from Long Island. She is a diehard Met/Giants/Isles/Knick fan (my FIL was a HS hoops coach)

They were the Boston Patriots from 1960-70 when they moved to Schaefer (later Foxboro) Stadium in 1971.

The Braves have been designated the Red Sox' natural rival for interleague play, no doubt because of the Boston connection.

Sports players should enjoy representing their area by playing for that team, it does not happen much anymore, but that was one of the reason sports are so popular...because you want to see the people reprenting YOU win. Like people rooting for the Cards (if any) in 2006 said were all happy when the Cards won, the truth is St. Louis won it, and in no way they should be happy unless they hated the Tigers.

Yeah, well finally we get a manager who actually wants to travel around in the off-season and see how thnings go as far as who we see.

I'll take Girardi. Not perfect, but at least I don't have to worry about him acting like he's being catered to. He took a few coaches, but no A-Rod, Mo or any of the 2007 Yanks on his squad. He can have Giambi and Pavano if he wants.

You have a manager who looks like he could be a hit man on The Sopranos, a guy who is a anal-retentive bully who slaps players around and disrespects his bosses.

I'll accept as truth what you'd said about him in the Florida forum re his one year there. However, he's different over here. He's Posada's predecessor, and after some reported difference, Posada said he had no problem playing for Girardi.

I don't worry about his looks. Torre looked like a sad-faced person and while he doesn't look like a goon, his endless excuse-making was getting on my nerves.

I'd prefer to see what actually happens. Girardi will have a mix of vets and young guys out there, so I don't believe he'd be able to get away with some of the nonsense he'd been allowed in Miami.

Anyway, Happy Thanksgiving. Oh, and no chowda is allowed today! :D

This Girardi guy reminds me of the most gung-ho gym teacher/ assistant high school football coach that ever lived. He was okay at first (in small doses )but every player hated his guts by the end of the season. That Girardi would select # 27 for his uniform number, to indicate that the Yankees are in search of their 27th Worlds' Championship is like painting a giant bullseye on your back at a rifle range.

Joey Pitbull (leave us face it, he looks like one) took #27 because Giambi has his old #25.

You're right about the gym-teacher look. I can just see him in the gym in his white t-shirt with "Property of XXXX HIgh School" on it, whistle ariund his neck, white gym shorts, calf-high socks and crisp white sneakers ordering laps and pushups for guys who screw up. And given his USMC grooming standards, him having a couple of his jock students grabbing longhairs and playing barber would have fit.

Trust me...players in the Yankee clubouse are gonna hate Joey Pitbull...



This a manager? Looks more like a prison guard...or a hit man on The Sopranos...

[Mattingly]

I still wonder why he was given a 3-year deal. In either case, I'm not the only one who got tired of the Yanks losing the ALDS for the last 3 seasons.

For #27, yes, that's a big bullseye on his back. Then again, I don't like A-Rod's #13, worn for former Dolphins QB Dan Marino, as Alex went to school in Miami. It's like now the 27th WS win is a "do or die" thing, rather than the previous "failed season".

After some hitting coach was fired after Phil Hughes, the most prized of the young lions, hurt his hamstring, I'd say that Girardi would be taking the absolute worst advice if he ever tried enforcing military discipline or "court marshal" of any type on the young guys. He'd never get away with this against Posada, Jeter, Mo or A-Rod.

Like I said, it'll take time, and we'll have to get used to him. If we can win some games and guys don't have to do "20 laps" after every loss, we should be fine.

Now then, y'all get on the floor and give me 50 pushups! :D

[SDL]

Joey Pitbull (leave us face it, he looks like one) took #27 because Giambi has his old #25.

You're right about the gym-teacher look. I can just see him in the gym in his white t-shirt with "Property of XXXX HIgh School" on it, whistle ariund his neck, white gym shorts, calf-high socks and crisp white sneakers ordering laps and pushups for guys who screw up. And given his USMC grooming standards, him having a couple of his jock students grabbing longhairs and playing barber would have fit.

Trust me...players in the Yankee clubouse are gonna hate Joey Pitbull...



This a manager? Looks more like a prison guard...or a hit man on The Sopranos...

Edited to add...

Joey Pitbull also looks like this character from Beavis & Butthead...certainly acted like him while managing the Marlins

There are Cubs fans in Ohio? I thought that Ohio residents were either Indians or Reds fans?

Who knows..it's possible somebody moved out of ChiTown to Ohio. Heck, I moved from Boston to Florida :)

All right, oh leader of the Yankees on BBF, I challenge you to a little bet, to see how confident you are in Brian Cashman and Hank Stienbrenner. Whoever's team signs the bigger free agent this offseason (from this piont on!) must have a banner displaying "YANKEES or RED SOX ROCK!" in bright, red or black letters for an entire week. What do you say, Mattingly?

I love how you say from this point on. After the Yankees have signed two of the top free agents in baseball. A-Rod who their is no bigger free agent than him and Rivera who was the best closer on the market.

Neither team will also probably signj any big free agents anyway. Saying that the Yankees signing of Jose Molina is the bigger than the Red Sox signing of some bench player is pretty meaningless. The Yankees have already done most of their free agent signings.

Aren't these the same Boston fans that constantly complain about the Yankees going out and buying all the best players and bragging about how signing the biggest free agents don't really help?

I`d take that bet easily even though it wasn't directed at me.

Anyway, I hope evryone in the US had a good Thanksgiving :)

What do you say, Mattingly?
So, I, with the most posts on BBF, am expected to accept a bet with someone who has all of one post here? Hey, pal, what's in it for me?

Why don't you change "from this point on" to "this offseason", with the word "offseason" being defined as beginning on the day after the end of the 2007 World Series, and ending on the day before the 2008 regular season?

If that were the case, I'd have already won, since Alex Rodriguez became a free agent and was re-signed by the Yankees. While I like Mike Lowell, does anyone think he's a bigger star than A-Rod? Is he even a bigger star than Miguel Cabrera, who gets more interest, despite the king's ransom in players his team would expect for him via trade?

Between the "from this point on" thing, to your having all of 1 post, something smells fishy about your post. That you even would come to think that I'm the so-called leader of the Yanks here on BBF (which I'm not if you really knew us) shows to me that you may not just be the innocent passerby that you make yourself out to be.

I also don't understand why the color choices would be red or black. Why not red or navy blue?

No thanks on the bet. Enjoy your day, however. :waving

My advice is to never take a bet with a newbie. The odds are greatly in their favor, and the low-risk thing of their not even having to show up after a loss is another obvious thing they don't mind one bit.

I'd say it's like if you made a bet with someone for $5. Not that I recommend it, but if they win, they've got money to show they could pay; if they lose, they somehow have trouble paying. People like that, I don't have much time for, and this forumer came with the cheesy excuses made in advance.

I'd just give a simple "no thank you", since from this point on, I don't see the Yanks signing any more big-name free agents. If they'd signed for Aaron Rowand, I'd be happy. The Indians signed a Japanese closer, and if we'd done that, we could have an excellent setup man for the next year or so, and he could take over for Mo sometime in 2009, putting Joba in the rotation in 2008.

Who are we going to argue about? Which low-level FA is higher valued? To me, it's a wasteful battle, and the fact that the newbie has mentioned "from this point on" indicates that he/she has no confidence that Boston will ever sign a free agent bigger than Messrs Rodriguez, Posada and Rivera.

[Mattingly]

ok, and I respect the gutless fans that root for all boston/new england teams.
I have no idea why you'd say this. I'm just catching up here on this thread.

If someone was from the New England area, then I have no idea how, if they've got one MLB, NBA, NHL & NFL team in the whole area, that they would be "gutless" for rooting for those teams. Only one team for each of the above-mentioned sports in that whole multi-state region to root for.

If someone has lived for many years in New England, or at least worked or went to school there for several years, I wouldn't consider rooting for the NE teams to be "gutless" in any way.

I think that I'd have more criticism for the NY/NJ area fans who'd rooted for the New England teams, yet had absolutely no ties to the NE area, nor had they rooted for those teams before they'd started winning.

Whether or not someone was a "bandwagoner" is the key word here, I'd think.

[philliesfiend55]

Yo SDL!
Even if there was a conflict with Giambi's number 25, which Girardi has usually worn throughout his career, Yankees ownership or their publicity department were quick to urge Girardi to take # 27 instead, with all the World's Championship implications that that would involve.

[Westlake]

I wasn't talking about Drew, but you could add him to the list. I find it funny that Boston fans rag on him all year and has one good hit and now he's awesome.

Its funny how he has a world series ring, and every Braves player was at home in October too. Come back when you finish in the top 2 in your division.

Haha, talking trash about paying 100 mil for an under-performing pitcher, how's Mike Hampton working out for you?

When the clock strikes at 2:00am, it will then be pushed back to 1:00am. It will be the Twilight Zone. One narrated by Rod Serling, and one in which them thar Beantowners don't win for 86 years. 2090 is just over the corner, folks. It's only a few days (or daylight savings times years) away.

Sleep tight, little one. You'll only be Rip Van Winkle at Sleepy Hollow by the time that wonderful day does come. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, the 2007 Red Sawx will surely be a bust! :D ;) :p

The Broncos are a classy enough organization never to have a Spygate incident. To get Moss to play is some accomplishment. We all know he took plays off in Minnesota and Oakland. It must also be easy to have ESPN always showing you're greatness, when it's smoke and mirrors. The point is that the Broncos have and always will own the Pats.

The AFC West was down this year, but it's not like the AFC East has been for several years.

AFC Easy 6 wins right here
Buffalo Bills (7-9) (Broncos won at Buffalo this year)
NY Jets (4-12)
Miami Dolphins (1-15)

What's the big deal anyway, it shows that he actually has his own mind and not going to change what he thinks just because he plays in the same state as a team that plays a different sport! I wouldn't care if Eli was a redsox fan or wore a redsox hat, as long as he dosen't throw any interseptions!
