26 for the Yankees........shooting for 27.

Hmmm.....
Wonder who has more to choose from.

Phillies?
1980 and 2008.
Not much to choose there.

....No argument there....but what have you done for me lately?

Sit tight.
You are about to get your answer soon enough.

Besides, despite the fact that I want another WS win, I'm really just happy to be there. Too many of you seem to have forgotten that, when the season started, many baseball pundits predicted the Red Sox and the Rays to battle for the AL East, with the Yankees out in the cold. There were too many questions in their minds, from an ageing Jeter and Andy, and Posada, Mo, Matsui, both ageing and coming off injuries, A-Rod hobbled physically and personally, Cano's sophomore slump, the whole Joba issue,Melky's ability to produce and who would play CF if he didn't, where would their bullpen come from, plus how the new people like C.C., A.J., Swisher, and Tex would adjust to the big stage in NYC - not to mention Wang, who was no factor in the long run.

I want 4 more wins this year, but 110 so far ain't bad.

Screw them!!!
I want it all!!!

Don't want to see a Patriots type repeat here.
Think of all the mouths to feed that will be jobless if the Yankees lose.

Riff Raff · 10-28-2009, 05:04 PM

Wow, such....uhm.....passion!

I have to admit, I would like to see the Phillies win. We need more than just one team with a legacy!

The way I see, awful lots of pressure on the Phillies to exceed the Marlins, who came to baseball in the mid 90's and have as many rings.

Blueface · 10-28-2009, 05:31 PM

Well, with all the crap I have spilled in this thread, if the Yankees don't back me up, I figure I need a back up plan.

Plan B is set to go, just in case.
If not needed, I can easily cover it back up again and the grass will soon grow back.

Blueface · 10-28-2009, 06:16 PM

Shaky first.
Phillies' clutch hitter did what he gets paid for.
Sebathia used up 1/4 of average pitcher's total pitches.
Interesting start to say the least.
Now our turn at the 1st inning.

bvilchez · 10-28-2009, 06:19 PM

What a scary top of the 1st.

bvilchez · 10-28-2009, 06:35 PM

I think this game might be rain delayed later on if it picks up....let's hope it doesn't

Blueface · 10-28-2009, 06:52 PM

Phillies draw first blood.
Sabathia is not on his game at all.

Blueface · 10-28-2009, 07:21 PM

Cliff Lee is on fire.

MedicCook · 10-28-2009, 07:55 PM

Time for the Yankees to get into the game.

bvilchez · 10-28-2009, 08:00 PM

We need to get the bats swinging AND hitting!!!

MedicCook · 10-28-2009, 08:04 PM

Jeter got his 2nd hit.

feznuk · 10-28-2009, 08:53 PM

A couple insurance runs never hurts.

floydpink · 10-28-2009, 09:10 PM

Wow, Philly sure came out swinging.

great pitching as well.

Still plenty of series left thank goodness.

MedicCook · 10-28-2009, 09:12 PM
