A conference call was scheduled between Rodriguez and members of the Yankees front office for Thursday afternoon, and A-Rod was going to tell the organization how he felt and what his preference was for when to return from hip surgery.

Phightin Phils Phorum - Mets Mutilate Moyer

Jamie Moyer has historically not done well against the Mets; today, however, was a total massacre.  I’m talkin’ a George Romero, Stephen King, Wes Craven-type massacre.  Call it the “Nightmare on 126th Street.”  Pulled after only 2 1/3 innings, Moyer gave up 7 earned runs on 7 hits, 3 of which were home runs.  And in the new Citi Field, home runs are hard to come by...

Yankee Stadium troubles won't end

First it was the empty seats because of the exorbitant ticket prices, then it was the mysterious vortex in right field that spiked the number of homeruns, now misscommunication among stadium officials left many New York Yankees fans out in the rain -- literally.

Red State Blue State

During my high school days there was this kid who caused quite a bubble of interest everywhere he went.  A by all means normal, good-lookin' dude, this guy was the essence of cool, the poster-child of charm, the cliche of class.He had money.  Nice car.  Designer jeans.Yet despite all of those wonderful attributes -- both material and physical -- no matter how hard he tried...

Alex Rodriquez I'm Back

Guess who’s going to be back in the Bronx soon Alex Rodriguez. Our third baseman is going to be playing sometime this weekend and the Yankees couldn’t need him more. A-Rod has spent the last year drowning in all the publicity he’s gotten. No doubt he deserves this hate that’s being thrown his way, he admitted to doing steroids and he is the highest paid and...

Bio hazard: A-Rod author has credibility issues

A Disaster Waiting To Happen

Maybe it’s me. Maybe I have seen too much baseball in my almost 50 years on this earth. Maybe it’s because I an eternal pessimist. All I know is, the 2009 edition of the New York Yankees appears to be a snake bitten, and dare do I say, cursed team. Thursday night was a perfect [...]

We Are What We Are

It's time to embrace what the Boston Celtics are to the rest of the world.They're dirty.  They get away with the things.  They talk too much and foul too hard.  And we Celtics fans... well... we're dirty, arrogant a-holes who illicit eye rolls at the mere hint of complaint.  People even come here to point and laugh at how we react to games... even though every team...

Early recap

I’m sick tonight so I’m not going to be watching the end of this game. It’s the top of the 8th inning and the Cubs lead 6-1. The Cubs scored 4 runs in the 1st inning. Reed Johnson had a bases clearing 3-RBI triple that inning an then came around to score on a passed ball. Rich Harden was excellent. He’s likely to start the 8th inning as he only has...

Posada hurt, Cervelli called up.

Jorge Posada hurt his left hamstring Monday night in Boston after sliding into second. This is very devastating for the Yankees. Especially after Posada got off to such a great start. But at least we have Jose Molina. But he can't catch every day. Which is why we have a prospect that played for the Italian national team named Francisco Cervelli. The two to three weeks Posada...

Yankees Drop 5 Straight, Look For Help From A-Rod

There have been a lot of problems with the new york yankees this in their first 28 games this season. The off-season money the Yankees spent on pitching has not been working-out for them so far, both Burnnet and Sabbathia both have ERA's over 4, and have combined for 3 wins in 12 starts. The batting has not been great either, and while the new, very hitter-freindly Yankee Stadium...
