Hi--again--everyone. :)
Just win....
Ahem, on the basis of the last 3 games.... if you're not going to be able to attend a GT, you need to write a Bot that will log you onto the GT anyway....:D

Motion noted and motion granted;)
btw the reaction elsewhere is rather strange... almost no posts at all, anywhere in the whole site... except their new GT is speculating that beaning one of us might be necessary:
"If we're going to drill someone, I vote for that little punk-ass raggedy-armed bitch Judas."

Yeah, I stopped by too and saw that, of course there was a thread here earlier this year about beaning Ortiz and/or Manny.

wouldn't mind an appearance by Keith Foulke either that resulted in him being sent back to Pawphuket ;)

That's exactly what i was thinking, esp after reading the NYT article yesterday, I'm very thankful The Boss has managed to allow a transition which sounds like it's already complete to avoid exactly what's happened with the Raiders....

Hello everybody!
Once again, I'm calling on the spirit of Admiral David Farragut (the first US Admiral) for the nightcap.
Quote:
<table border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tbody><tr> <td class="alt2" style="border: 1px inset ;"> On August 5 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/August_5), 1864 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1864), Farragut won a great victory in the Battle of Mobile Bay (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Mobile_Bay). Mobile, Alabama (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile%2C_Alabama), at the time was the Confederacy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confederate_States_of_America)'s last major port open on the Gulf of Mexico (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_of_Mexico). The bay was heavily mined (tethered naval mines (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naval_mine) were known as torpedoes at the time). Farragut ordered his fleet to charge the bay. When the monitor USS Tecumseh (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Tecumseh) struck a mine and sank the others began to pull back. According to legend, Farragut (who was lashed to the rigging of his flagship the USS Hartford (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Hartford)) shouted down the order, "Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!" The bulk of the fleet succeeded in entering the bay. </td> </tr> </tbody></table>

LOL those who can get NESN now are seeing Jack Welsh (former CEO of GE) who they often have on as a 'typical fan' (yeah a typical multimillionaire fan who used to run a Network...) but he's semi-senile and wildly outspoken... trashing Johnson and semi-trashing Franconia (you see how Torre pulled his pitchers....)

Jeter SS
Abreu DH
Rodriguez 3B
Cano 2B
Wilson 1B
Williams RF
Fasano C
Cabrera LF

At one time their financial companies were the most profitable. They had a Life Insurance Co; Puritain Life... I came on board as an Associate Counsel, they were expanding their legal dept like crazy. After i got there I found out why: 80% of the stuff they had sold in the past 3 years was sold without regard to umm state laws... they were being sued by 20 state insurance departments.... I left in 6 months... Puritain Life was gone a year later....

There was some talk about the Yanks playing with house money tonight. I maybe wouldn't go that far. I'd say maybe more like they got their hotel rooms comped, so they're feeling good about the weeked but they still know they could lose their entire bankroll if they don't stay focused.

Nice job Torre!!! What a terrible move. Thanks for taking the momentum away.
Looks like we're facing the sox, the umps and Torre tonight.
It's the right move to run. Damon got a terrible jump.

It ain't Joe's fault The Cap' couldn't hit a fastball right over the plate.

08-18-06, 07:16 PM
i know its not good to put guys in positions they're unfamiliar with, but for tonight i wouldnt mind seeing bernie in left field and melky in right. melky has a much better arm for the huge right field as well as much better range. you dont need a really good arm or great range to play LF in fenway and bernie could just play sort of shallow and gobble up the weak flies and play the rest off the wall. bernie in RF here worries me.
jeter was screwed on that strike 2 call. should be 2 on 0 out right now

How is that Torres fault? Damon was running on the 3-2 count..nothing wrong with that.
Jeter doesnt strikeout against lefties much

Sigh ... let's go Sid ... if he's all I think he's gonna be it may not matter what happened this inning ...

I don't think we can blame Torre because as he said in 2004, "they're on their own out there".
I don't know why Damon would run after barely escaping getting picked off.
dabomb2045

Im fully expecting Ponson to suck. This way if he does miraculously do well.....I'll be pleasantly surprised.
Kluivert4Ever
08-18-06, 07:19 PM
I still cannot understand how you can call that a strike.
That was a HUGE call, not only would we have gotten 0 outs 2 on but Lester would now be at around 20 pitches with 2 outs left to get! He would probably be at 30 after this inning.

08-18-06, 07:19 PM

He's unbearable. I thought he was getting laid when he called Manny's HR in Game 1.

Agreed, I just hope he can give the team innings while sucking. I expect the score of tonight's game to be the opposite of this afternoon's game.

I think if Ponson stinks it up he's going to have to "eat" (no pun intended :P ) some innings.

Agreed. If he sucks....Torre needs to keep him out there and let him take one for the team and save the pen for the rest of the series.
Sorry I'm late. :)

I'm mad about it too, but those things do even out over time, Damon running on a H&R after he almost got picked off like that and when Lester was having to get gift calls for strikes is what I don't understand....
