Red Sox bettter watch it and start winning some more games. Yankees have that SWAGGER back and that's not a good thing for red sox fans. Janice is your husband concerned???-LOL

Yes, he's concerned. He's a realist. He says, "You never count the Yankees out, not until the last day, the last out." This isn't really new though Solomon. The Sox always fall apart this time of the season.

Time for Curt Schilling to go

oooo, One overpriced team who always tries to "buy" a Championship is catching up to another, who does the same.....and destroying the game and its credibility in the process.......how exciting...YAWWWWNNNNN!!!!( No wonder I dont watch baseball anymore )

Good for us too, with that attitude, lol. That's not true with the Red Sox either. If the Sox were trying to buy a Championship, they would have unloaded their farm club players and bought a lot more at the trading deadline. They only got one player. There's nothing wrong with trying to better your team.

;)
And on the other hand, it ain't other til it's over. ;)

Time for Curt Schilling to go
Not yet, says the hubby. He's a money pitcher, and he'll be there in October.

You really don't know much about baseball do you? LOL

Anyhoo, the Yankees are on a roll lately. It's all due to their young talent like Melky Cabrera, Robinson Cano, Andy Phillips and Shelley Duncan and Chien Ming Wang. Now with the additions of Phillip Hughs and Joba Chamberlain, they seem to be getting stronger.

I wouldn't go crazy though, the Sox still have a huge enough lead and have excellent pitching. I just want the wild card.

You really don't know much about baseball do you? LOL I dont appreciate your snicker... Would you like me making fun of you?
I know plenty about it...and how teams like the Yankees and Red Sox spend rediculous amounts on free-agent players ( The Sox paid an obscene amount just to get the right to TALK to a Japanese free agent in the off-season ), leaving other teams in the dust, destroying the credibility of the league and making sure that theres basically the "haves and have nots"...sports is supposed to be based on the "competitiveness" of the teams, but, teams such as these take all, and give nothing back to the league! Granted this is a problem in all major sports, but, in baseball, it's become rampant and these 2 teams ( Along with , arguably, the Atlanta Braves ), are the main culprits.

Anyway, I hope when the playoffs come, both of these teams flounder, and some middle-of-the-road Wildcard team takes it ALL!

well it is the 30th anaversary of the 77 yankees.

...And I don't appreciate your slam, so we are even. If you did know about baseball, you would know the Yanks are developing a lot of young home grown talent.

If you noticed lately, alot of teams besides the Yanks and Sox are being "competitive." It is a little something called REVENUE SHARING. Teams like the Yanks and Sox have to pay money to the smaller market teams a portion of what they spend on talent and that has helped several teams be much more "competitive."

It isn't the Yankees or Red Sox fault that a majority of the owners of these small market teams put the money they give to them in their pockets rather than on the teams they own.

Well, i wasnt slamming YOU, whereas you were being personal! And yeah these teams develop players, but, so do all the other teams...however, other teams have to let those players go as soon as they come up to their potential...as far as revenue sharing goes, its a sham, a drop in the bucket for teams like the Yanks and Sox......ALL TV monies should be shared equally throughout the league, small market teams should refuse to let the games go on the tube until this happens.

Down to 5 now.

I really do think you need to toughen up a bit. That's just my opinion. If you want to talk about YOU getting personal with people, I can easily bring up links to other threads. That's besides the point. My opinion is you don't know much about baseball and I stick to that.

The Yanks are getting shelled tonight though. lol
