Youk Of The Nation

I wonder if it was temporary or if our hosting site fixed it?

Isn't that what they teach in health class?

You should be careful. Low self-esteem is the leading cause of Yankee fandom.

There is no need to be redundant.

Yeah, but he was also Edward Norton, so even muscled he was still kind of pathetic.

I don't know, Hernandez is a big guy, and a football player. He could easily end up on top, especially if he savagely beats the first guy who tries anything with him. You have to establish your dominance early. I should mention that everything I know about prison comes from TV and films.

Toronto trying to throw the Sox for a Loup.

LASER SHOOOOW

I would pick Ellsbury and Iglesias, but not Vic or Napoli.

Aww.

I wish Wang still pitched for the Yankees.

Bautista looked like he was about to propose to that ball.

Carp now getting on to the tuna a .375 OBP. Not bad from a bench guy.

But this all in one day thing, is that recent? I never heard of it before?

Is that a new one? When I did it a couple years ago it was 57 days in a row.

No, I'm sick of everyone doing it. Just because you don't use someone's name doesn't mean you don't intend for everyone to know who you're trying to pick at. Just stop. It's bad enough when these things start stupid volleys of insults, but it's worse when it gets started in a thread where it has no bearing.

I wouldn't go so far as to say they are a non-factor, but it took a franchise-record winning streak for them to get above .500. They may have dug themselves into a hole too early. Also, we get that you disagree with people about things, but this passive-agressive dead horse beating is getting old. Confine your oh-so-subtle digs to the specific arguments about them in other threads, there's no reason to bring it into every other thread.

Hmm...an interesting proposal. Who would vote for me? I promise to make Super Bowl Monday a paid federal holiday and prevent Canada from importing any more musicians.

I only saw him disagreeing with your point about Dempster. As do I. As I have mentioned to others before, stating something as fact does not make it fact. Dempster may very well be worth 13 million by the end of the season. He is pitching very well at the moment and I see no reason to believe he won't continue pitching well for the rest of the season. The problem UN and I and others have with you is not the fact that you constantly berate the FO and the management and other fans for every single tiny thing, it's that it's all you do. I cannot for the life of me remember a single positive post that didn't directly relate to a game that was being played at the time. The Sox have the best record in the American League after an embarrassing 2012 season that saw them finish well under .500. I get the sense that the Sox could go 161-1 and you would still log onto TS only to berate whatever player didn't get a hit in the one loss. Being realistic or critical of a team is one thing, but many people are well and truly sick of listening to absolutely nothing but ripping on the Boston Red Sox. The Red Sox are a great team right now, on pace for the postseason. By all means, criticize things if you feel you need to, but try something else once in a while.

I was thinking more of the year when he won 19 games.

Yeah, that's ridiculous. How many people in the public spotlight have had big stories made out of stupid stuff they said on Twitter? How could he not know that it would happen?

You know, in all the hilarity about Johnson, Dickey, and Wang, I didn't notice until just now that their team is the BJs.

The Yankees are the only team in the AL East with a negative run differential. They were at exactly 0 before last night.

Lester starts for the Sox, in desperate need of a strong start. Wang for the Blue Jays. Heh heh. Wang. Anyways, he is not the same pitcher he was with the Yankees, so beat him.

I read that first line as "According to King George III" and I was confused for a moment.
