Yes, yankees have a great lineup. If they get some pitching they will win 28 and i'll have to hear them, did i ever mention i'd rather stick a fork in my eye than hear them? Tavares scored tonight, Isles play tomorrow so i was watching him play on NHL network

[Reciprocity]

We'll see what happens. There's a lot of baseball to be played yet. At least now we know who all the contestants are

Why they call it the Bronx Zoo

Clearly, beer must be less expensive there than it is at a Canadian sporting venue. I wouldn't be tossing a $15.00 beverage away no matter what the situation was

Nothing is cheap in NY, if the beer price is favorable the ticket to get in is thru the roof. They stop selling alcohol after 2 hrs from the start of the game or middle of the 7th(whatever comes first) . Just a drunk fan .

With the prices charged for food and drink at Major League Baseball stadiums...Unless someone is on fire, I ain't pouring anything on anyone.

Like I said yesterday ......... good series ahead and maybe some mayhem? 

[NADA]

Yup....definitely an intense rivalry.  That’s what makes it interesting though.

[Whispers]

Out here they're acting like Boston is the underdog.... Lets Go Met Sox i mean Red Sox

 

 

[Reciprocity]

Yes, they were saying that last night during the A's.Yankee game. If Yankees won, Red Sox would have all the pressure on them.

I'm not convinced it really matters once they get a couple of innings in.

 

What ever the Yankees do now, it's all gravy to them so yeah, they may be a little looser early in the series.

 Yanks were 1 game away from the WS last year and had the NL MVP fall in their lap thanks to Jeter. The fans started putting in for vacation in march for the parade, 6-1odds they came in to win WS  . The top two teams odds tied @ 5 1/2 to win WS were Astros and Dodgers ... They dont win WS season was a failure

 

Id see yank fans driving like this guy screaming wooohooo 28 out the car window in april

Hey! ..... that was me

Dislike the Yankees. As a young kid (I`m 68) growing up in Cardinal company they were my favorite American League team. I was a middle infielder and thought Bobby Richardson and Tom Tresh were so cool! All this changed in 1964. Despite a friendship of my Grandmother with a relation of Bob (Bullitt Bob) Turley from Troy,IL  I had to choose between my Cardinals and my Yankees who always won the American League pennant. As luck would have it, my Dad got two tickets for game 6 in St. Louis from a friend of a friend who knew Terry Moore (great center fielder from the great Cardinal teams mid 1940`s). Seats right behind the Yankee dugout. All my former heroes so close. It was tough for a 14 year old but it is such a great memory. Maris,Mantle,Elston Howard, I even think Yogi was still there. Well, Cardinals had a 3 game to 2 lead but lost that day. With my brother ( God rest his soul) we went outside and got a bus back to E. St. Louis. I really don`t know if I was sad that the Cardinals lost or happy the Yankees hung in there. Confusing time. More to come in a few years but I`m a Cardinal and will always be. Born and raised on Redbird baseball and a few Bud`s. 1964 was the last year of the great Yankee domination of the American League but as a side note for you baseball folks, the Yanks only lost the pennant twice in those years and I think Al Lopez was the manager of both the Cleveland Indians and the Chicago White Sox that beat the Yanks. I think it was Jim Bouton`s book "Ball Four" that talked about Lopez freezing the baseball`s the home team supplied to the umpire. Love these kind of baseball stories. It is our game.

I love hearing the old baseball stories, my father was a Brooklyn dodger fan when they moved he was pissed and even years later you can see in his face when he would talk about it. Its not the team we hate, its the fans.

I have a Cardinal's Sweatshirt that I have had for probably 30 years. Clearly my favorite piece of clothing - lol!

It's got paint on it and has worn thin in sports but it's irreplaceable!!
