The prospect of missing the playoffs for the first time since 1993 is surely sitting poorly enough with the Yankees, their front office and their fans. But what makes this even worse is watching the Red Sox, and realizing how much better they are right now.<BR/><BR/>At everything.[...]<BR/><BR/>"Watching them, you see it," Johnny Damon said. "No one's over there trying to be the man. They know how important it is to get on base, extend the inning, and when they do that they're getting big hits. They've got some talented players over there -- guys who not only have good batting averages but have been able to drive in runs, score runs, drive an opposing pitching staff crazy ... there's no easy spot in that lineup."<BR/><BR/>If Damon sounds jealous, it's probably because he is. He should be.</I>efdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09043274887188896152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-45301570641116332662008-08-28T08:12:00.000-07:002008-08-28T08:12:00.000-07:00I love the morning Sportscenter schadenfreude.I love the morning Sportscenter schadenfreude.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14809080115678512743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-49189826361963825762008-08-28T07:56:00.000-07:002008-08-28T07:56:00.000-07:00I think the Time Life "I Can Only Imagine" christi...I think the Time Life "I Can Only Imagine" christian anthem compilation CD... picked the wrong channel to advertise on.

My name is Larry Luchhino, I'll show you around.<BR/><BR/>...Yes, it is too bad that the Stadium ownership changed just two days ago. The Red Sox came in brandishing weapons just like the early Americans did when they came over from England. They took this place by force, and there was nothing anybody could do about it. We've decided at the end of the season that we're going to tear this place down. Well, I mean, there is that new stadium almost complete across the street. Although we don't own it yet, we will very soon. We might even take it over just like we did here. Maybe before it even opens.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14809080115678512743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-55295279178628771892008-08-28T07:26:00.000-07:002008-08-28T07:26:00.000-07:00So, Hank shows up for his first game since Opening...<I>So, Hank shows up for his first game since Opening Day, leaves after the grand slam, and he talks about a lack of dedication and effort from the players.</I><BR/><BR/>Hey, the quote said "first time since Opening Day <B>in the owner's box</B>".

My favorite part was the Hank picture - I'd wanted a shot of him during last night's game sinking in his seat, thinking of what blather he'd fling at the media, and then I wake up to a picture of him sinking in his seat and saying "they stunk". What more could I ask for?Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12613923038816299394noreply@blogger.com
