  1. Second atdhe.net feed is Fox En Espanol, almost perfectly synced, somehow, to ESPN Radio. Or I could listen in Spanish.
  2. "Two champions...on a Sunday afternoon...A new one as a quarterback...An old one as a man." That was from NFL Films' Super Bowl III highlight film, their begrudging acknowledgment of Joe Willie and then shunting the AFL punk aside to idolize Johnny U. The O'Connor piece made me think of that, and I'm sure that if (if) the MFYs don't advance but show any kind of pulse in the process of not advancing, we'll read variations on this, and how in the end they did themselves proud, because when you get right down to it, it's not who wins a single series that's important, it's who's won dozens of them.
  3. If last night proved anything, it's that Pettitte's a first-ballot Hall of Famer.

  5. Nolan Ryan hasn't looked this happy in NYC in 41 years.
  6. "...and the Rangers are in double digits." So is the crowd.

Perhaps it's the sitcom thread's influence, but that sounds like a catchphrase from Webster or some such ABC effort. And Hamilton's homer is the moment when the audience goes AWWWWW.... AWWWWW... redux.
  8. In most countries, this game would be over by now.
  9. How exactly does "GBA" honor our men and women serving in the armed forces overseas? I don't mean that in the philosophical sense concerning patriotic gestures or as a rhetorical political question. What in that song has anything to do with "we wish you the best, we appreciate your putting yourself at risk, we hope you make it back safe"? And "oceans white with foam" as rhyme for "my home sweet home" gets no more than a C- once you're in seventh grade.
  10. While I have some extra time during this forty-two minute version of "God Bless America," geez Girardi is a toad.
  11. GBA dude milking every effing verse -- must be a freeze-out tactic against Texas.

  15. Let's hear it for Bengie Molina not signing with the Mets! Molinas and home runs in NYC on October 19 -- some are better than others.
  16. John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: Frayed Knot wrote: Teixeira's injury looks like one of those 'out for the duration' kind of deal. Figures. He was killing them in the lineup. His injury provides megadoses of MFY inspiration.
  17. Nice to see they give old washed up minor leaguers like Michael Jordan such primo seats.

  19. J. Wilpon's statement referred to him as "Frankie" as opposed to the more formal Francisco. Something tells me he's the closer here next year. Closers need short memories, as do teams stuck with anger-management students. bmfc and I were at the game when he was used post-arrest. What an absolutely ridiculous insertion by J. Manuel.
  20. Frayed Knot wrote: Teixeira's injury looks like one of those 'out for the duration' kind of deal. I wish him no physical pain. Smoltz immediately gave him the "he never takes off a play, always hustles no matter his batting average" kissoff. Sounded a lot like what was said of Jason Bay nearly every day for three months.

  22. Willets Point wrote: The Yankees learn that fan interference works both ways. And yet, they escape. How hard is it to think, "My hands are not part of the game?" Worked for Daniel Murphy when he was last seen loitering near the left field stands.
  23. MFY hands very busy again ... against MFYs.
  24. If the Cano ball bounces off the top of the fence (on the yellow line) and bounces back into play, is that HR? Ball off the wall in 1973 wasn't. If not interfered with, it's conceivable it bounces back. Either way, take a look.
  25. As soon as Darling said, with a two-strike count, that Rangers have MFY pitchers where they want them because of good 2-strike hit streak, it was obvious there'd be a strikeout. Steve Albert pulled that same nonsense thirty years ago and I'm still steamed about it.
