MFY/Tigers Series

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

2 out!

[Theoldmole]

I should mention here that on the news discussion BB that I run, I have been getting constant flak from a curmudgeonly conservative Yankee fan, for saying "This has to be the result they were hoping for," when in fact that was open to question (Well, the CCYF thought I was totally wrong, but that's another story). So I answered him, "I was speaking colloquially, as in 'this has to be the prettiest sunset I've ever seen,' or 'this has to be the most humiliating defeat the Yankees have ever suffered.'"

Gopher ball to Posada. Thank God for big cushions.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Ho Hum. A 2 run homer. 8-3 Tiggers, with one out to go.

[Theoldmole]

Did you ever see such glum, perfunctory high-fiving in a dugout?

[Valadius]

YES!!!!!!!!!!

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

[Theoldmole]

How sweet it is.

[smg58]

Party time!

See you in twenty minutes...

[Theoldmole]

Is the Met game on the same channel, or do I have to look for the remote?

[Valadius]

Ding dong the schmucks are dead, the schmucks are dead, the schmucks are dead!!!

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Same channel. Relax and enjoy

[Valadius]

BTW Mole, what is this news discussion BB?

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Same bat channel.

They're lifting Leland up on shoulders.

How great would it be here to cut to a shot of Selig waiting at Steinbrenner's office, tapping his foot, while George writes the revenue-sharing check?

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

JD is on fire today

[Guest Edgy DC]

Shopping in the porn section, circa 2009:

"Hmm, Big Trouble in Little Vagina... that might be good. Brassiere to Eternity? Naaah. 2006 ALDS? What's that?"

I haven't seen the goofy hats and tee-shirts yet. Dickshot may be right.

[Valadius]

There's a "Leyland for Governor" sign.

[Guest KC]

PLAY LOUD!

[Valadius]

Ok, which Tiger just yelled "Aflac"?

[Guest vtmet]

Thank you Motor City...I can handle it if the Mets don't go all the way...I didn't want to deal with the Yankees making it further than the Mets...thanks for removing the torment...

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

That might have been the best non-Mets post-game celebration I've ever seen! Kudos to Gambler going on the dugout roof like that and making nice with the fans.

[Guest cleonjones11]

Thank You's to.God...Santa Claus....Mother Teresa....and of course g--rod

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

His new name should be 8Rod.

Clearly he's gone. You don't embarass a regining MVP like that unless you're telling him to start collecting cardboard boxes and rent a U-Haul.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

At least he has a future in beverage delivery.

[Guest vtmet]

Could be one of the better hitting RH left fielders available in the off season...

Bad ass! (That's a compliment)

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Thanks

[Willets Point]

This was fun to watch. Doubly fun watching with a Michigander (or is Michigoose the correct term?).

I loved how the players sprayed champagne on the fans, I've never seen that before.

I'm also proud to be the world's suckiest prognosticator and extend the reverse karma jinx on the Yankees to a 6th year.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Love it! I was so fucking happy watching this game.

Go Detroit!

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Somewhere on this site I rationalized a Detroit series victory because their starting pitching was probably the best of the AL playoffians, and therefore the most dangerous MFY opponent. But I was just wishfully projecting. Who knew how right I'd be.
