I’d be laughing harder if we hadn’t dropped two straight.

    That was hilarious (although I, too, am not happy about the last two games)! I’m a Yankees fan living in Texas so I don’t always get the chance to revel in the team around here.

  • Talix18 says:

    It’s no comfort, I know, but this Baltimore girl is stunned that the O’s came back and won last night.

    That shut-out, though – that was kind of a thing a beauty, flukey as it was…

  • Emm says:

    Good stuff – you can consider this Tigers fan completely terrified of the series that starts tonight, lord knows both teams need the wins.

  • Charla says:

    I feel like they were listening to me rant while watching Sportscenter.

  • BSD says:

    I think Yankees and Red Sox fans can agree that it would be nice to not have to play Baltimore again. Bedard, Guthrie and Cabrera are three nice starting pitchers.

  • Andrea says:

    What I want to know is who put what in Baltimore’s water, and can we get some up here in Boston?

  • Elizabeth says:

    I’ve got to congratulate the Yankees on suddenly remembering how to play baseball, but I can’t believe this will last. A-Rod’s arm is going to fall off, or something.

    I just hope the Tigers stop slumping, like, now. NOW DAMNIT NOW.

    Emm- Took the words right out of my mouth.

    ‘Although the Yankees’ schedule becomes tougher in the coming month, with multiple series against the Tigers, Angels, Red Sox, and Mariners, most baseball fans have resigned themselves to the fact that the season is “pretty much fucking over.”‘

    I’d find *that* funnier if we hadn’t been losing so much lately, or been so injured, of if Verlander hadn’t given the whole fucking team the flu.

    Of course, as I type this, we’re up by 5 in the third. But Verlander also beaned A-Rod, so you never know.

  • Sars says:

    Farnsworth just came in. You’re fine.

  • Emm says:

    Excuse me for saying so, but wahoo Tigers! And Verlander with the flu, what a cutie.

  • Emm says:

    P.S. We’re never quite fine with Todd Jones on the job.
