"They give us a tough time," Alex Rodriguez said. "We know when Lou comes in here he's always going to have his troops ready. We definitely don't take them for granted."

If that's the case Slappy, a squad of Camp Fire Girls would give you a tough time right now. Where is the outrage? The spark? The determination? Hell, haven't even heard from Jeets. Makes me feel sad that this Red Sox fan has got no one to banter with since the fire's been put out - for this year at least.

For this team to become "galvanized" would required the following:
Darth Boss George stood in front of a pit of molten zinc, above which dangled Bubba Crosby. When asked "Why Bubba?" DBG replied, "I'm working my way up the payroll, and the rookies I need for trade bait. Besides, these "veteran" bastards have seen Bubba bust his ass; I want them to think about that when I pull him out of the pit, slice him into nickels, and deliver the remains in lieu of their next goddamn paychecks."

Don't take them for granted? DON'T TAKE THEM FOR GRANTED?!! Holy shit- it's fucking captain obvious coming to slap the shit out of some people's arms and spread the gospel of purple lipstick. Any team you're 3-6 against you shouldn't take for granted and that goes without saying. I think the reason jeet-err hasn't spoken recently is because he, along with a large portion of yank fans, has given up on the season.

Err.. shut your fuckin' piehole,Toolie.

Make that 2-7 vs the worst team in baseball.

I said it before, I'll say it again:

YANKEES SUCK

Horray for Tampa! Horray for Lou Pinella! You gotta at least respect Lou, even if you think we suck. He's really trying. We have Legends field down here for Yankee Spring Training. My favorite part of those games is seeing the players I grew up with coaching now - Chris Chambliss, Goose Gossage, Reggie Jackson and Willie Randolf are a few of the faces I've seen by the dugout in the pat few years.
