Yankees Win, and NOT because of any bad calls.

[cherokeeprogressive]

Congrats, Yankee Fans.

[Drunken Irishman]

1. Congrats, Yankee fans...

On supporting douchebags.

You're the Republicans of the sports world.

[HuckleB]

5. I hate the Yankees as much as anybody, but grow up, dude.

[Drunken Irishman]

6. No.

[HuckleB]

7. I hear that from my three-year-old every day.

[Drunken Irishman]

8. I bet your three year old can't drive a car, though.

So there!

[HuckleB]

10. I don't let him drive drunk, if that's what you're asking.

[Drunken Irishman]

19. What kind of parent are you?

[gateley]

2. What game of the series was this?

Edit to clarify I know it's not THE Series, just in case you wondered.

Thanks.

[cherokeeprogressive]

3. Second game, Yanks 2, Angels 0.

Coming back to the warm confines of Edison Field, or what Angel Fans call "The Big Ed".

Gametime Monday should be about 80-85 degrees.

[gateley]

9. Thanks! Although the Angels sure gave the Yankees a run for their money

in that cold, windy stadium. Hope they win on Monday --

I just like to see each series go the distance because I want to see every game possible before it's all over.

:hi:

[cherokeeprogressive]

11. You, me, and the networks hope for the same thing LOL.

I love the game.

[gateley]

14. At the end of each season I'm bereft, as though I've broken up with

my boyfriend of something. :7

[cherokeeprogressive]

18. Damn if I don't feel the same way...

Except for the boyfriend thing.

I take comfort every year in the fact though that it's only a five month hole in my life before Spring Training starts again...

[oldtime dfl_er]

21. Me too

I can hardly wait til pitchers and catchers report for spring training! It means the season isn't too far off....

[Princess Turandot]

26. Ain't it the truth! With 162+ games, it feels like there will be a game every day..

until there isn't..

BTW, I'm pretty sure that it's Dodgers/Yankees that Fox wants in the series.
I've nothing against the Dodgers, but I couldn't bear seeing Joe Torre at the Stadium with another team. If it comes down to the Dodgers v. Anaheim, I'll definitely root for the Dodgers.

Also, if you click on this Google Maps link, you'll see a mapped representation of the World Series winners from 1903 to 2008. It might take a few moments to load, but I think it's cute. (Of course, I created it lol.)Took me awhile to track down some of the logos for the now gone teams. Clicking on the logos brings up info abt that particular series. (Zoom to the stadium level.)

27. Really enjoyed your map. I had to click through all of them.

While I knew the St. Louis Browns did win a pennant I was not aware the original Washington Senators had won a World Championship.

I did notice one error--in 1966 the Orioles beat the Dodgers, not the Angles.

[HuckleB]

12. Yeah, they did.

But I think they needed this one, if they hoped to make it interesting.

[gateley]

13. Well, it was interesting to me until the end of the 13th!

:7

But I know what you mean. Hopefully the Angels will win at home.

[HuckleB]

4. Great game!

I hated having to put our youngin to bed. He was actually watching the game with me.

[Submariner]

15. They're juiced on Roids....it was an artificial win

It is not a game anymore. It's a face-off of drugged up personalities.

[HuckleB]

17. Wake up.

It's not 1998, or even 2003 anymore.

[DainBramaged]

22. Yup every player in every sport uses steroids, YOU are the expert....

Angry unhappy people, the heart of DU. Jealous too.............

[DainBramaged]

16. Dozed off woke up to see ARod being interviewed...............

:evilgrin:

[Mudoria]

20. I would hope so..

after you spend half a billion dollars on a few players you ought to win. Still, here is hoping they crash and burn.

[Princess Turandot]

23. Better than the owners who pocket their $$ instead of spending it so..

their fans get to see a better team. It's particularly touching when they pocket money that they receive from the Yankees (and a few other teams) under the revenue sharing plan, rather than spending it on the teams. Say what you want about the now ailing Mr. Steinbrenner, he spent a lot of money to put together good teams and continued to do so even when they didn't win.

I might be a bit off about this but 7 of the 8 highest salary teams were the ones who made it to the playoffs. (The Mets were the ones who did not make it.)

[tkmorris]

24. Yankees win, because they have more money that anyone else

They are the Manchester United of American baseball. Ruins a good game if you ask me.

[LTR]

25. Hey, at least I can afford to go to my team's games!

And I don't have to pay for the privilege of feeding Steinbrenner's ego.

[H2O Man]

28. Yankees win, because:

{a} they are the greatest team in sports history; {b} this team will earn its spot in Yankee history, as it is superior in every aspect to the other teams playing this year.

[Onceuponalife]

30. What color is the sky in your world?

[H2O Man]

32. Blue today.

It's simply wonderful to be a Yankee fan. Enjoy this life-enriching experience known as the World Series.

[bigwillq]

29. Thanks!

Yay Yanks! :bounce:

[Onceuponalife]

31. Not because of bad calls...because of steroids.
