Yankees Off-Season Plans

[Optimist]

Too bad I cant stay home for this one. All of the major press conferences last few years Ive stayed home for, SERIOUSLY!

 

I remember last year staying home for RJ, turned out to be a 2 for 1 deal as I also got to see Beltrans as well, but the one that I will never forget is A-Rod's. That whole weekend that that deal wnet down fro, from Saturday morning to Sunday night when we were told it was a done deal I was literally glued to a media outlet the ENTIRE TIME, I could have been a reporter that weekend with how on top of that I was hahah.

 

YES is going to have an encore of it tomorrow night after the Nets' Post Game Show (around 10:00, I believe.)

[Optimist]

Thats hilarious, where'd you find that pic?

 

On Yankees.com, it's in the article about the press conference tomorrow (Damon to don pinstripes Friday.)

[26 to 6]

thanks

[AlexanderTheGreat13]

Nice, I'll be home for it. Cant wait

[He Hate Me]

btw, the grandslam by our boy Johnnny doesn't hurt as much anymore. You gotta love Boston, can you imagine Bucky Dent going to Boston? haha

Thanks Optimist, I'm scarred for life.

 

Excuse me while I go wash my eyes out with Dial anti-bacterial soap.

This is odd...

 

"I would never go play for the Yankees"

 

-Johnny Damon to MLB.com, 5-1-05

[riverside sluggers]

Once there was a day that money didnt matter much to players, some were payed even less than the average joe. Jackie Robinson even had retired when learned he had been traded to the rival team he had been playing against for a good matter of years, now thats what I call cold-hard loyalty.

 

Sure we have the Variteks and Bruschis that are loyal to their teams and will give the hometown discount, but most players will put on a routine for the show. Hence Damon's interview he had with MLB.com back in May

[schillingouttheks]

Yes, my eyes are stinging really bad now, AND I think I'm going blind. Hm...never wash your eyes with soap.

[Optimist]

Oh well, I'm sure the sting (the one caused by Damon, not the soap) will dull by Opening Day.

Ouch, I'm gunna need the fire department I just got burned so bad.

If I 'burned' you, it was an accident. Sorry.

You need to read SImmons' article on ESPN.

 

BTW, money "didn't matter" because they were working a second job in the offseason. They didnt play for peanuts becaus ethey wanted to help the team, thatw as just the salary they were given

[He Hate Me]

thats cuz it is. I thoguht it didnt felt as bad, then they replayed it on TV while talking about the Damon press conferencxe, I'm still feeling sick about it.

[26 to 6]

Since I havent seen it yet, did the jersey have 18 on the back?

I'm not sure; they don't have any number next to his name on the online roster yet, though.

[riverside sluggers]

yeah it did, and aw to commemorate that they sucked up to damon's wife and gave her 18 roses.

lol

 

I heard she was a royal BITCH! Can any SOx fans comment?

[Soxfan1]

I am royally pissed. I hate this Offseason.

[Beckett95]

I am royally pissed. I hate this Offseason.

 

the redsox FO is asleep. they havnt done anything since the Beckett deal.

[riverside sluggers]

and theres still 3 1/2 months left, lets take it easy. Im not giving up hope yet on a season that is nowhere close to starting. Heck the pitchers and catchers dont report to spring training for another 2 months

[Beckett95]

ya but the longer they wait, the less quality talent is available. There arent many bigname players available anymore

[riverside sluggers]

that we dont know of yet...

[Optimist]

I'm watching the encore of the Damon press conference...

 

Brian Cashman has bags under his eyes; that's a good sign!

Im watching it too...anyone besides me notice that Damon might not be the brightest guy out there....he did a lot of stuttering, didnt clearly answer questions, etc..

 

Also, talk about modesty....NOT!!

(idk, cockiness is a turnoff for me, I guess because I am a very modest person, whatever though, not a big deal.)

[Optimist]

On a note somewhat related to the Yankees...today, I sent in my video and application to be on next year's Ultimate Road Trip.

 

Am I the only Yankee fan on the forum who's done it?
