Yeah those bastards..

[Voltron]

Did it come with a certificate of authenticity?

[jinp6301]

WHOOO YANKEES!!!

[Wmcmanus]

Ya, I feel the same way, Al.

[penger]

FWIW Even though they "spent" so much money in the off season, I believe their payroll this year might actually be less than it was last year.

WHOOO YANKEES!!!

i thought Bayside was Mets?

[jinp6301]

Bayside is Mets, but NYC >>> Phillies

Jerry Jones can't buy a fucking vowel!

[morphsci]

Could have been worse, the phillies could have won.

As a Yankee fan, not only am I delighted by this win because it restores the Natural Order of Things, but I also believe that I, as a native New Yorker, am entitled to multiple World Series Championships.

The rest of you should, of course, continue to root for your silly little teams. They sometimes win it all, too!

EDIT: Well, except for the Cubs, they don't win it all, poor bastards.

Rub it in why don't you.

[grawk]

another year goes by where my preferred outcome doesn't happen. One of these days a meteor will fall from space and kill both teams.

Heh, sorry about that. My father, brother, and I are trying to plan a pilgrimage to Wrigley next summer.

Sorry Jim... they play @ Houston on those dates. I blame the organizers for picking an Away weekend.

You are incorrect sir, the most enjoyable time to visit Wrigley is when the Cubs are playing away. You could always come in the weekend before and see them play St. Louis on 5/29 or 5/30 if you were actually interested in seeing an actual game for some strange reason.

people watch baseball?

Are you referring to the cubs with that comment?

2003 was painful. And since then we've ridden a wave of mediocrity as I watched the Red Sox (second longest winless streak to that point), White Sox, and Cardinals take a world series consecutively.

Baseball is not kind for Cubs fans. Maybe we're just fools.

[aardvark baguette]

Are you referring to the cubs with that comment?

If they are a 'baseball' team, then yes

[morphsci]

Well that's the rub then, isn't it.

[Wmcmanus]

As a White Sox fan growing up, about the only thing I ever liked about the Cubs was that they always sucked. Of course, the same could be said about the Sox, but at least they eventually won a World Series.

Getting back to Al's topic, I don't like what money has done to professional sports, but that's now the way of life. What really sucks is that it has crept into the collegiate sports (especially men's football and basketball) as well, although thankfully, it's less painfully obvious at that level.

Indeed. Very weak.

[MexicanDragon]

I plan on boycotting CJ'10 b/c of no cubbies.

But what I was saying about not going to Wrigley... they sold it, right? Probably won't be Wrigley anymore.

Google Park, maybe? Who bought them again?
