The Red Sox have stayed consistent with their payroll.


Oh, i'm sure it stayed real consistent when they went out and 'bought' Diasuke, right....and JD Drew (a real catch!)




the Yankees, they went out and bought their championship


You know what, (my sour-grape eating) Pal...if the Yanks bought it, they legitimately paid for it.......unlike the NE pats who 'Stole' the SB, by underhanded-ness!



As a Red Sox fan, which I probably speak for most of us. We truly don't care that we didn't win the WS....It would have been nice, but it doesn't even matter.


First of all!....you speak for nobody but yourself, as most TRUE Bsx fans would SPIT right in your face for saying "we don't care that we didn't win the WS" <-----this is the mother of all your brain-farts, Btw!!!!............................and after being ahead in the ALE for 2-3 months, i guess the Bsx didn't care to win the ALE, either!!!...Is that why we dusted them 4 straight games to secure 1st place, back in July, right!.......This is a perfect example as to why you are such a complete Donk!........Not only do you lay brain-fart after brain-fart, but you insult pple's intelligence in the process!....Go eat some more sour grapes!


We are done with baseball for this year and have moved on to football.


Then WTF are you doing here?...other than having oral diarrhea, spewing out your mindless gibberish!


We got our rings not once, but twice. That's all we ever wanted


yeah, thats all YOU ever wanted, yeah rite.....i'm sure the 3 stooges fully concur (henry, werner, luchino) with you....they could care less if they don't get another WS for another 80 yrs....thats why they are in the top 5 teams with the highest payroll!......Btw, keep those brain-farts comin' Pal.....it brings out your best side!


So enjoy your 27th championship


We will Pal......and you'll be able to see it, just tune in on tomorrow's ticker-tape parade in NYC.
-----------------------------------------------------------------


Mark Teixeira and CC Sabathia maybe? I liked Tex when he was on the Rangers. And I've always liked CC. But I sort of look at both of those guys as turning heel like pro-wrestlers now that they're on the Yankees.


there is no-where else that these players would rather be than in Pinstripes!


The Phillies were not playing like champions for a lot of the series. They weren't playing with any heart. They seemed to be playing like Cole Hamels felt; like they were just ready to go home and call it a season. The intensity that they had last year against the Rays just wasn't there.


The phillies ran into a 'brick-wall' called the Yankees......Like C. Manuel said; "The Yanks stayed 1 step in front of us, on all counts...they did what we couldn't do!"....if the D-Rays were anywhere near as good as this years' Yanks, they would have beaten the Phillies themselves in 08!
---------------------------------------------------------------------
@ Earth-ding/dong


Question was not how good the NY Donkeys were, the question is how bad the Phillies were.


If the Phillies were that bad, then how much worse are the Bsx???????...at least the Phils were able to win 1 game in NY!.....we beat the living schit outta the Bsx, 4 straight in July!
You spew your oral diarrhea about Andy pettite, not realizing how cool he was under pressure and doing it in the clutch!.........The Bsx would sign him in an instant if they could!


Whatever happened to Pedro? The Pedro Martinez we used to know.


Pedro left cause he didn't feel it was worth his while to stay in your schit-hole town, much like Boggs, Clemens and Damon...and besides, he got his ring so he could care less.


what happens if you leave Red Sox for 'mo money'


You eventually end up winning the WS...like Boggs, Clemens and Damon did!


The best thing Pedro has done in his entire life was when he knocked down to the ground a fat old guy from Yankee management during a brawls between Yankees and red sox a few years back. That scene is priceless, I'll never forget that.


And if this is the "best" thing you Bsx fans can cherish of Pedro...then it further PROVES my notion that you all are a bunch of pathetic reprobates!!!!



POF has a bunch of losers.


Of course you know that you are indicting yourself as well!...(as you've been long part of the POF scene)


The losers have nothing else to do in their life but waste their times with other peoples profiles.


Congratulations, for coming to a full realization of what you've been doing all this time on POF, pal!


losers will do what losers do the best.


And who would know that better than you, Pal!


During my hiatus from pof,


I tend to think you got kicked off!



I drove to Boston from carolinas and on my way I literally pissed on NYC. Yes, I stopped in NYC to piss.


And when I drove from Maine back to NY...........I literally wouldn't even piss on the BEST part of Massachussets!

I can certainly sense no love, loss between you Boston and NYC sports fans in here. Lol Yeah I’d say the cities that have the most hatred rivalry between each other has to go to the Boston and NYC rivalry easily. I don't think any other cities come even in a close second to this time honored, sports rivalry tradition, especially when it comes to the Yankees and Red Sox.

I remember watching a video a while ago about the Boston and NYC sports fan rivalr , where they had two guys that are cousions that did the interview about how deep the rivalry between these two cities go. One was born and rasied in NYC and the other was born and rasied in Boston and when asked when were you first taught to dislike each others respective sports teams and both of them said almost at the same time "the very first moment we were able to talk." lol

heard that the Phils just re-signed Cliff Lee....that was fast!....and smart, doing it in the middle of the Yank's celebration, and didn't give the Yanks time to make a move on him!

I heard yesterday that it's not likely that the Yankees will go after any big ticket free agents. They might do some tinkering around with the roster due to the fact that they are probably not going to sign both Matsui and Damon....they may sign one or the other. Also, Mariano Rivera stated he would like to play five more years.

The AL Central has been busy already. The Royals and the White Sox have made a trade....Teahen and cash to the White Sox for two players. Plus the Twins got JJ Hardy from the Brewers for Carlos Gomez. The White Sox cut Jermaine Dye, the Tigers cut Marcus Thames and the Twins picked up the option on Michael Cuddyer. The Indians have been the only team in that division to not make a move as of yet.

The intensity that they had last year against the Rays just wasn't there.


Sorry, I disagree with this, the intensity was there I just think for this particular series they were the ones out-matched, where last year it was the Rays. The Yankees did exactly what they needed to do, shut down Ryan Howard….though it did help Utley!



This thread is dead until march when spring training comes to full swing (except for the bos/yank crowd).

Nah, there will be awards, free agents, trades and signings to talk about, though it might dwindle down to just Marshfield and I. (Well, and maybe sum and Wiz still pissing in each other's direction.)

Rays traded Aki to the Pirates, saving his option to hopefully sign CC and that should mean keeping Zorilla…wee!

Kudos to the Yanks.

Hug for yeswho.

Don't believe it!........Yanks need a solid starter in their rotation, that is where they are hurting the most right now!.......Lackey is gonna file for free-agency, and I can see John Lackey in Pinstrips next year!...if the Yanks don't get him, i'd bet he'll end up with the Bsx!


they are probably not going to sign both Matsui and Damon.


thats gonna be a tuff one to call!....both are dangerous hitters, and clutch players..Matsui's knees are pretty far gone, and can't play the outfield much....Damon doesn't have the best throwing arm, but his legs can still move for a guy his age................But the reason why 1 of these men will be let go is because they are gonna need the money for a high profile pitcher!


Mariano Rivera stated he would like to play five more years.


the best dam closer in MLB, and future HOF'er.....there few who have the kind of control and accuracy that he does!.......if he stays well i see him playing for at least another 3 yrs!


The AL Central has been busy already.


there alot of parity in this division so i'm not surprised to see these teams trying to get an edge.......anything can happen in that division come next year!

I was on Church St at the time doing a job with my son who was off of school that day. We were a block away. There were so many Yankee fans it was unbelievable. My son did not want to see the parade, he is a Yankee hater and he actually wanted Philly to win Getting out of that area with my work van was %$#@ crazy.

Don't believe it!........


Not five minutes after I made that post, I saw speculation that the Yankees may let both Damon and Matusi go, so they could go after Jason Bay and Matt Holliday.


I can see John Lackey in Pinstrips next year!...if the Yanks don't get him, i'd bet he'll end up with the Bsx!


Or maybe he signs back with the Angels?


anything can happen in that division come next year!


I don't see the Indians or Royals being competitive and the Tigers won't hold first place for nearly as long (if at all) in 2010. At this point (and it's very early in the offseason) the Twins and White Sox are in the best shape in the Central...I give the Twins the edge, if Morneau is 100% in 2010.

Let's see....
$200 million a year payroll (that's only players) and there was no WS championship trophy for 9 years.
That makes $1.8 billion, with a B, spent without a WS championship.
Had the Yankees lost this years championship, they could have asked the government for bail out money.

Wouldn't it be interesting if Yankees win a WS championship trophy with bail-out money? As a good citizen and tax payer I would sue the government if they bail out the Yankees, ever.


where they had two guys that are cousions that did the interview about how deep the rivalry between these two cities go. One was born and rasied in NYC and the other was born and rasied in Boston and when asked when were you first taught to dislike each others respective sports teams and both of them said almost at the same time "the very first moment we were able to talk."

Almost like when the Yankees picked up ARod and got nothing for 9 years.


First of all!....you speak for nobody but yourself, as most TRUE Bsx fans would SPIT right in your face for saying "we don't care that we didn't win the WS"


It's true....Jacka$$!!! But then again you speak for Red Sox fans that you claim would spit face? And like I said, it would have been nice to have won it, but we're not suffering for a WS championship like we use to. We have two, the curse is dead, and moving on to next year. Red Sox are still good and can compete next year. We're humble now....You donk!!!


<-----this is the mother of all your brain-farts


If that's so....Then you're suffering from constantpation. Constantly talking out of your a$$. You should take a JaC lax....It helped him for last 3 weeks.


....thats why they are in the top 5 teams with the highest payroll!.....


Talking out of your a$$ AGAIN!!! And I'm the one with the brain fart? We play a tough division where a team likes to spend crazy money, so how else are we suppose to compete. Even the top 17 teams are only 40 million difference compared to the Red Sox, which leaves 120 million difference with the Yankees....Big difference you donk!!!

That makes $1.8 billion, with a B, spent without a WS championship.


And by making this statement, YOU JUST PROVED MY POINT!...that just spending money DOES NOT buy championships!.........on 1 hand you've been crying and whining about how the Yanks spend their way to the top.......and on the other hand you now say that their huge payroll hasn't won them squat in 9 yrs!!!!........congratulations, you just put your D!CK IN YOUR OWN MOUTH, Pal!........................enjoy!


Had the Yankees lost this years championship, they could have asked the government for bail out money.


the Feds could only wish they could make/generate money as well as the Yanks!



If Sum1 was my cousin, I would have barred him from all family gatherings at my house.


...........and the pleasure would be ALL MINE................Pal!

***************************************************************
The Wuss


Almost like when the Yankees picked up ARod and got nothing for 9 years.


Performance isn't the point here...you Donk!.......the issue was about how you said (incorrectly) the Bsx payroll remained constant, despite buying players like Ds-K, and Drew.



But then again you speak for Red Sox fans that you claim would spit face?


I speak for "common-sense"...........i can't see fenway park being sold-out every game to a bunch of fans who would be at ease with a 2nd or 3rd place finish.........But then again, I may not fully understand the boston-mindset.....Living in NY, us fans have higher expectations for our baseball teams!


We play a tough division where a team likes to spend crazy money, so how else are we suppose to compete.


How else you ask?....why don't you look at how the Pastriots built their success!.....a) wise draft picking. b)good trading. c)good coaching. d)nice playing conditions..........As you see, even your buddy, mr. Earth has acknowledged that spending crazy money sure as hell don't assure a team of winning........does it!
*******************************************************

Yeswho


you don't see any Philadelphia fans here bad mouthing anyone here


No, you are just BELLY ACHING about how the Yanks 'bought' the WS......well then I guess thats how the Phils won the WS last yr right!...they had a bigger payroll than the rays!

They didn't look out-matched to me. They looked like they didn't really care about winning. No spark. At least by the end of the series. They weren't playing like they did in game 1. Even game 5 with the win didn't look like a winning team. They nearly choked away a 6 run lead.

And I'm not putting Howard's failings on the Yankees. He just didn't show up.

Amillo-Bello Yes some fans in Philly are nuts. But every city has their share.Pirates fans threw batteries at Dave Parker their player on their home team,Clevland Browns fans threw their beer bottles at the refs and ended the game earley just to name a few.
