    Sweet Happy Jesus!

    Almost enough to make me want to look it up.

    Happy Birthday, America!

    19-1 final, apparently.

    Yeah, just must make you sick to have a guy who won the MVP award last year. The torture of watching a Hall of Famer in his prime. Must be awful for you. ::)

    I understand why Yankee fans are on the guy so much, but it's still ridiculous.

    imagine the reaction of steinbrenner 20 years ago, not only on his birthday but also in his native ohio.

    Yeah, and how many World Series titles have A-Rod's previous teams won that he was on?

    Seriously, back on topic, congrats to the Indians. They were deserving.

    As a lifelong Yankees hater, noting could be better on George's 76th birthday than:


    Yankees 1, INDIANS 19

    Well, teacher, Stanton didn't join the Yankees until '97 and he was not an unknown but an 8-year vet who had had success with the Braves and Red Sox. Nleson had been a reasonably successful set-up man in Seattle before the Yankees signed him.

    Of the current guys you mentioned, Nick Green is a 28-year-old minor league veteran who was released by Tampa Bay; Kevin Reese is a 28-year-old who has spent 6 years in the minors before his first call-up this season; Andy Phillips is a 29-year-old who has taken 7 years to get to the bigs; TJ Beam is a 26-year-old 10th round draft pick who is nothing more than a stopgap in an awful bullpen.

    Cabrera, Cano and Wang might be OK...but they're in anyone's wildest imagination not Jeter, Posada, Rivera, Pettitte.

    This Yankee team basically has about seven or eight Kevin Maas clones and Oscar Azocar and Mike Pagliarulo models thrown in for good measure.
