Drew's a little quicker. Come on Manny.. RBI 180 feet away.

Pedroia's not that fast... damn it.

"Extrusion of the testicular contents"? Dear God...

JD Drew should be run the f*** outta Boston and get the sand out of his vag.

The only heckling/interfering I recall is the guy trying to get the fans behind the bullpens pumped up. I don't remember ANYTHING about him heckling the players directly. Whatever he was doing, regardless of its nature, did not warrant the response that it got. Besides, I remember Nelson just being a bit of a douche bag in general - he was a bit of a loose cannon, so I wouldn't be surprised if he went nuts for an irrational reason. So you're saying that Garcia couldn't judge by the other bullpen pitchers that restrained themselves from getting involved in the fight? Let's remember, he had to run from RF and jump the barrier before proceeding to beat the s*** out of the guy. If he was simply "defending his teammate", wouldn't he be wondering why he was the only other person jumping into that fight? If Nelson needed defending, I have a feeling the entire Yankee bullpen would've been there quicker than Garcia to help out. Look, 26, it seems like you try to find a way out of any accusation against any Yankee player. I know you don't condone it obviously, but to say that their behaviors were somewhat warranted against a completely defenseless park employee who was just trying to support the home team is nothing short of ludicrous. Manny threw McCormick to the ground, apologized for his behavior, and his apology was accepted. What more do you want? You have to at least be happy with the apology... and since it was accepted, I have no trouble dropping any lingering problems from this incident. I don't agree with the Sox in that they're dealing with it internally because it seems like they're protecting him from the public to an extent, but I trust that they're taking the necessary actions to ensure it doesn't happen again. If he's fined, that's fine, but the punishment should be publicized so everyone knows that the Red Sox aren't sleeping on this. All that said, I'm still convinced that you were trying to make a "Yankees have more class" argument. While I buy that you're talking about players and how their behaviors are handled, I believe you took it to the next level when you stated, "We're not the Red Sox we don't tolerate that s***." Sounds to me like you're trying to say that the Yankees handle their players' unacceptable behavior better than the Red Sox do.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! I'VE LOST MY MOJO! http://www.mtv.com/shared/media/news/images/p/Powers_Austin/sq-austin-hey-3rd-movie-newl.jpg

Hahahahahahahahahah no, this is an old one that Red Sox Rooter made. I couldn't find the original!

Well, cutting down a 16-team league certainly wouldn't be a problem, as it's hard enough to stay competitive when the talent is stretched so thin. I wouldn't go above 12 teams in the future, and only offer spots next year to people who have been active in this league. Gom, of course, doesn't meet this requirement at all.

Damn. I should've used Garcia and Nelson as my examples. Good picks, JHB. I'm wondering how 26 will excuse their behaviors...

I can't either.

Aight, enough of this ********. Win the game. Schillingouttheks mojo is back and better than ever, bitches.

He's just trying to make another effort in futility by using this instance to prove that the Yankees are much classier than the Red Sox. I mean, come on, the Yankees never put up with ******** from their players. I mean, remember when Giambi admitted to taking steroids and apologized for it? They fired him anyway! Right, right? Oh wait a minute...

I vote not a problem too. My personal solution would be the following - send a PM to the managers who have been lacking in their effort to maintain a presence in the league warning them of a possible freeze of their fantasy team and 100% forfeiture of a possibility to win any league prizes (there are rare circumstances where inactive teams end up doing quite well). If they recognize the PM and we see improvement in their activity, then it is a mere warning. If they make no effort, then a month from now their team is frozen without the possibility of being reinstated. What sayest thou?

I'M GOING TONIGHT. So pumped.

I agree. Tavarez can't come into the 17th inning and f*** up anymore.

I find it difficult to refute anything TheKilo has said. If Curt is making a guaranteed $8M this season while doing absolutely nothing to earn it for AT LEAST half the season, the least he can do is take care of surgery later and rehab his shoulder so that the Sox could possibly get something out of their $8M investment. The fact that Curt wanted to have surgery after signing for $8M makes HIM selfish, not the Red Sox. I'm sure the Red Sox would have been more than happy to let Curt do whatever the hell he wanted if he gave back the money for which he signed.

Okay... GET THE f***ING RUN HOME PLEASE.

You won't be buying monster tickets on the morning of the game. I promise. The only way to get up there nowadays is to pay the $600.

There are no claims if a player is a free agent. If he's a free agent, all you do is add him and the transaction immediately processes. It has nothing to do with the strength of your waiver claim position.

lol, you couldn't have put in a claim because he was a free agent...

As a starter? lol.

Dying over here. GRGHGGARGALDSGNASJGLANEFADLFSA

I woke up a couple hours ago and I still haven't recovered.

Gooooo PORTUGAL! Yes, I've been watching. I picked Portugal to win the world cup .. f***in France. I'll stick with them as my international team I guess (behind the US whenever they're playing, of course).

I just figured that out.
