I probably won't be able to listen to this live, but it sounds cool. Is the audio going to be archived?
It will be archived. I'll have a link for that later.
Kason Gabbard's coming back. For some reason I feel rather good about that. I liked him.
And it (somewhat) nullifies the Eric Gagne debacle. Murphy and Beltre are still with Texas. Sounds like cash considerations going back to the Rangers.
Just read a review of the Mohegan Sun center-field bar seats at the Toilette-Nouveau, and they reminded me of the Hard Rock in the Skydome...until I read the price for seats - NINETY FUCKING DOLLARS????
I nearly shat myself. That's fucking ridiculous, $90 to sit in a bar and watch the game through glass. It's fucking $5 in Toronto and they usually don't bother charging it. I can understand it being a bit more because its New York, but $90 - anyone who coughs this up is out of their fucking mind.
God dammit. I could go on but I don't want to blow any veins in my forehead. Jesus fuck.
It makes me verify I'm over 18 and says the show features "strong content." Live up to that! F-bombs! Or at least say dong once or twice.
Jere, are you going to sign up to chat?
And he said he got his $ worth!!!
...
Maybe I should talk completely in JoS code.
Host: "This isn't under the FCC so don't worry about maybe a bit of cursing."
I'm supposed to call in at 9:10.
...
People are chatting at the site now!
I think I signed up to chat
click "login" in top right to register
I registered but I can't bring myself to chat with such moronitude. I'll just thread here by myself.
Hope the chat is no indication of the show.
If it is, you should high tail it out of there.
Wow, you're suggesting we just listen but talk about it here? That's not a bad idea.... but I will go see if I can register over there.
Hey I hear the dude talking.
Yeah, listen but thread here. That chat is too dumb.
Check out JobaJr. He's my new hero.
Wait, what the H? It says it's a Red-Sox Yanks debate but he says he specifically wants Yanks or METS fans? I'm confused.
Jere could add some good anti-Yank stuff
I don't know. I was surprised by that too. I hope Allan's not being ambushed.
I've done media where I've been blindsided. They swear it's an intelligent show, and you find yourself in the middle of screaming match. Later they apologize like they weren't expecting it. Yeah right.
I need my posse!
ooh, he's using the "rape" term. Who the f is this guy?
L talking trash!!
rape- "for lack of a better word"
We're on it, A.
MannysDong, Jere is that you???
commenters might not dictate level of show. the nyy blog is quite good, i think. smart stats, graphs and pie charts!
Will this guy ever shut up???
this is ridiculous
you had to ask if that was my name?
Damn, I lost my connection in the middle of Allan talking
I knew it was you.
I'm here and ready to rumble! Should be studying but oh well, this looks fun.
This guy from the Yankee blog actually seems pretty realistic.....
Red Sox have to be a eight or a nine
9C, yeah, that was part of the deal. He does an intelligent blog, so Allan figured it would be ok.
Bench.....its in the hospital
We changed our whole bench , Allan
9C, it's not so easy to think of everything on the spot.

9C, it's not so easy to think of everything on the spot.
I know, I'm just bustin balls, and we also have Kotsay back
Bruney may be legit
Likes MDC, he loves him in a Andy kind of way...
Masterson..RESPECT
this is hilarious. chirpin yankee fans.
No contest...
this is so funny. i haven't been in a chat thing in years.
I'm trying to come up with something clever to say about Allan's voice, but I've got nothing. It's a perfectly ordinary voice.
It sounds higher on the radio than it is in person.
Benjamin, are you Birdbathia?
No that's me, L.
I lost the audio. Damn you crappy laurier wireless in the library.
Tim! Cool. I'm cracking up.
All this "lets you and him fight" stuff is tiresome.
nice to hear allan warming up
Benjamin, I know. Both guys are smart and serious, but the host can't keep up.
What a bloody joke. Oooh just got audio back. This should be humorous.
I'm gonna put moderation back on. I think the idiots from the chat room might be on their way over. :)
I'm out - REALLY gotta get going on this homework.
That was a fun thread to read! :)
It's just too bad I didn't participate. April sports roll on and both TVs in the living room got another workout.
Shit, that guy did more pro-Sox stuff than me!!!!!!
what the frick? That Joey guy makes a sexist joke about LGirl at the end? Fuck that site.
Wow, I caught the last 5 minutes or so. Didn't get to hear much of A.
I signed up to chat without really looking first. Made 1 coment and realized this was a typical "this is why I don't chat" chat.
It actually took me a few weeks of watching this site to decide it was actually intelligent conversation.
Well, usually - :)
You should let some yankees fucks come in here sometime.
Shit, that guy did more pro-Sox stuff than me!!!!!!Trust me, I only did it raise expectations so it hurts more when you crash and burn! ;)
Thanks for coming by to the show guys. Sorry it got a bit out of hand in the chat but I guess these things are kind of expected when you mend the Yankees and Red Sox fans. That isn't generally the way the show works; this was the first time doing a show of this kind. But anyway thanks for coming and chatting and listening. Hope to see you there in the future

Really? ... Maybe not a good idea to insult the partner of one of your guests.
Trust me, I only did it raise expectations so it hurts more when you crash and burn!
After 2003, I became untouchable. Nothing will ever hurt me again.
In the end, I think more things have to go right for the Yankees (or fewer things go wrong) for NY to win the East than for Boston. The Red Sox are a more solidly constructed team, with players in reserve in case/when shit happens.
With a Bailey Dong on top.
"Really? ... Maybe not a good idea to insult the partner of one of your guests. "
I don't want you to think that I made any sort of a sexist joke. I replied to what somebody said in the chat room. It's an open chat room I can't pay attention to what everyone is saying while doing a show. From what I understand there was a bit of a fight going on with two of the listeners. So for that I apologize but I cant except total responsibility for what everyone does. It's an open chat room I'm just the host not the baby sitter.
Well, I have no idea what was said, I was simply responding to Jere's comment.
The show was good. Always nice to hear from an intelligent NYY fan. Now I have a new blog to check in with every so often.
Yeah. I got it. What do you want me to do? I was busy taking notes during the show. Like I said. When you put 40 or so people in one room things are bound to get nasty. Me, personally, I'm not that way. Just don't think what some asinine listeners say in the chat room is a reflection of what my beliefs are or how I run my show. Tonight was a larger turnout than usual and lots of new chatters, I'm sorry if anyone was offended but just don't think this is a reflection of my personality.
Boy, L...aren't ya glad you aren't involved with that crowd anymore (MFY fans)?
When that JtCjr kid said "You red sox fans all seem so old" or something, that compliment brought a tear to my eye, realizing that even someone as idiotic as that can recognize our superior intellect. =) We did JoS proud.
I need to comment on the sexist remark bash. There was quite frankly--stupid banter going on between jobajr and lgirl--it was pretty boring actually and considering lgril is an adult, should have ended much sooner than it did. Anyway, the insults were flying, pms was mentioned and the tampon comment was added. No one was insulting anyone's wife. That's not what the show is about and for the record, the Host did try to control the chat--several times threatening to ban the chatters for their out of line comments. Grown women should know better than to exchange banter with little boys. It was boring, it was inappropriate, and not the content that belonged in the show.
"That Joey guy makes a sexist joke about LGirl at the end? Fuck that site."
Did he? I missed it.
"Made 1 coment and realized this was a typical "this is why I don't chat" chat."
Definitely! But it's a hoot to be stupid once in a while - to serve a good cause ;)
"Boy, L...aren't ya glad you aren't involved with that crowd anymore (MFY fans)?"
YES. But I was never around fans like that - except at the Stadium. And something tells me there are Sox fans out there who do the same thing.
The weird thing is that people from the chat seem to think I was actually angry or upset. Maybe they can't visualize a woman just laughing and going along with the silliness, they can only imagine I'm upset. Or is it that *they're* boiling mad, so they assume I am too? I was laughing and enjoying it. If I weren't, I wouldn't have been there.
I save my anger for important things.
"I need to comment on the sexist remark bash. There was quite frankly--stupid banter going on between jobajr and lgirl--it was pretty boring actually"
As opposed to the highly intelligent commentary everyone else was offering? 100% of what goes on in those chats is stupid and boring.
"and considering lgril is an adult, should have ended much sooner than it did."
Why? I was enjoying a bit of fun. I assume everyone there was doing the same thing. Why should I have ended it sooner?
I wasn't the slightest bit offended by anything that was said. I'm not going to be offended by nonsense in an anonymous chat room saying things like "maybe Lgirl has PMS". For chrissakes, if something like that offended me, I'd need some serious help.
"Anyway, the insults were flying, pms was mentioned and the tampon comment was added."
I didn't see a tampon comment. I'm sure it was a real zinger.
That's sarcasm, btw.
"Grown women should know better than to exchange banter with little boys."
Grown men (assuming you are one) should know better than to lecture grown women on their behaviour.
Do you lecture all the chatters on that site - all of whom were doing the same thing - or did you single me out for some reason? Could it possibly be because I was the only chatter with a female name?
Yeah, I'm sure "Red Sox Nation" has its share of idiots too - especially of the card-carrying variety. Just not in that chat room =)
But hey....at least yankee fans have money. bahahahahahahahahahahahaha
"Just not in that chat room =) "
Correctamundo
"But hey....at least yankee fans have money. "
Ha ha, poor guy was desperate!
But hey....at least yankee fans have money. Ha, more money now at least, considering they're not using their Toilet.
L you spend most days in here "exchanging banter" with this little boy. Tampon Tampon PMS Vagina
"L you spend most days in here "exchanging banter" with this little boy."
But that's different because I love you.
* * * *
Seriously Andy, your banter here is a PhD in physics compared to what was going on over there.
Oh but Jere, I forgot to say: thank you for your anti-sexist vigilance. Whether or not I was personally offended, you are great.
It's times like this that I'm glad I chose to be male.
???
!!!
So , i stopped listening at about 9:30, so I missed all the chat "problems", but what I get from all of this , is that Jere was offended that some yankee fan talks about tampons, is that even close.......
Is there a chance that tonight's thread my actually have yankee visitors? That would be cool, as long as everyone can keep it as classy as Allan and the other guy did last night(sorry I forgot your name)...
"It's times like this that I'm gla d I chose to be male."
"I don't know you guys walk around with those things"

"So , i stopped listening at about 9:30, so I missed all the chat "problems", but what I get from all of this , is that Jere was offended that some yankee fan talks about tampons, is that even close"f
Not really :)
There really weren't any problems, but I guess some people thought I was taking it more seriously than I was. I was insulting and being insulted by a young, dumb, Yankees fan. Usual chat room stuff, and as as SoSock said, why I don't go to chat rooms.
"Is there a chance that tonight's thread my actually have yankee visitors? That would be cool, as long as everyone can keep it as classy as Allan and the other guy did last night(sorry I forgot your name)..."
There's a good chance, but I doubt it would be classy. I've been rejecting moronic NYY--fan comments all morning.
I think we should keep mod on tonight, but Allan says we'll try it w/o and see how it goes.
Lgirl, it appears you misunderstood my post and I am happy to hear you were not offended by the comments made by jobajr. Your friend, Jere, however was insulted for you. "what the frick? That Joey guy makes a sexist joke about LGirl at the end? Fuck that site"
Thu Apr 23, 10:32:00 PM
His reaction was fuck that site, the host offended you. There was no lecture directed to you, just an attempt to clarify what was going on. The host did not mean to offend you. I'm glad you had fun and by the way--I'm a female. You weren't singled out--I was responding to Jere's comment. I see you responded to him yourself. Glad you had a good time.
"Lgirl, it appears you misunderstood my post"
No, I did not. You did single me out:
"considering lgril is an adult, should have ended much sooner than it did."
and
"Grown women should know better than to exchange banter with little boys. It was boring, it was inappropriate, and not the content that belonged in the show."
You singled me out twice.
Your description of the exchange as boring, stupid and inappropriate - when it was exactly like all the other banter going on among all the other chatters - is also singling me out.
Re-reading your comment, I don't see how it could be interpreted any other way.
Thanks for stopping by to explain.
The yankees are not good.
Lgirl---I don't expect this to be posted--I'm sure your neanderthal posse will have it blocked. I wasn't singling you out--but probably should have. By your own admission, you were trading insults with a young boy. Your posse should have seen how you instigated the whole situation before coming to your defense. I repeat while you might not have been bothered, your protectors were and that should not be anyone's impression of how the show works. The host did not insult you. Happy Bantering!
"Lgirl---I don't expect this to be posted--I'm sure your neanderthal posse will have it blocked."
Allan and I put the comments through ourselves. Neither of us are Neanderthal.
"By your own admission, you were trading insults with a young boy."
I have no idea how old "JobaJr" is. Still don't.
"your protectors were"
Those are my friends. Just plain friends.
"The host did not insult you."
Nor did I think he did.
Thanks again for stopping by. Maybe take a valium before your next visit.
I've always wanted a posse.
Now I have one.
