OK well I brought a piece of MI1903 with me...the IGT. All form of rooting, ranting and raging allowed. Homers, Chicklittles and even Trolls welcome. NSFW, although that's not a problem here with all the retirees running around.

Rules are simple...OP owns the IGT. Yanks win, OP must post the IGT for the next game and continue the run. When the Yanks lose, someone else picks up the mantle. At the end of the year, we tally wins & losses....winner gets a giant bag of doritos, and unlike Rick, I'm good for it.

I'm not sure I like this lineup in the order Joe has it, I'd rather see, the need for speed optimized, as well as the 3 run HR too..

1-Gardner
2-Ellsbury
3-Jeter
4-McCann
5-Beltran
6-Tex
7-Soriano
8-Johnson
9-Roberts

That's one helluva Murders Row........I hope as much throughout the year.

Looks like your going to be the OP-IGT guy for through the All Star Break...LMAO...thanks for the IGT OP....looking forward to it, popcorn machine dusted off, peanuts in the oven, Fresca cold, Tab too.....hardy har....and a tootsie pop for Rick.........

Pasta, what I posted is the projected line up for tonight according to the NY daily news. & they list Gardner as 7th & Beltran 3rd.

 

[Rick2583]

That incline in CF is the dumbest thing I've ever seen. What the hell were they thinking?

Cc off to a crapy start.

 

[JeterRules20]

Oh CC...How I miss the old you.

 

[Pastafazul]

ok no 1 get angry, but why is CC our ace?

 

[Pastafazul]

YIKES!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Pastafazul]

its early!!!!!!!! its houston

 

[JeterRules20]

Whoa....

 

[danman1202]

Wanted to come in to say one thing: It's CC Sabathia. Anyone that thought this fat loser pitching 17 scoreless in worthless Spring Training games meant anything was an idiot. Dude is toast.

 

[Messiah717]

Fuck you Sabathia you piece of shit.

 

[Rick2583]

its early!!!!!!!! its houston

I waited 6 months for this shit. WTF! 4-0 already.

 

[danman1202]

There was zero reason he should have been the opening day starter, other than "he gets paid a lot" or "because"

if everyone is pitching to their max potential, he's the worst starter on the team

 

[JeterRules20]

Come on and raise your hand if you really thought CC would be better this season. My hand is not raised.

 

[Messiah717]

Come on and raise your hand if you really thought CC would be better this season. My hand is not raised.

I was hopeful and while this is only one game it's not a good sign coming off last season.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Yep, Tanaka should be #1 starter.

WTF-3 errors in one inning, I got the game on late, at Sabathia's 13th pitch, he's looking like shit, what the hell happened to his fast ball? 88-91 MPH???????? Where did you go CC?

A comedy of errors, this ISN"T Spring Training, but they're playing like it, ie. the Yanks.

The Yanks are making Houston look like the AL Champs, again WTF????

 

[Pastafazul]

i feel more sorry for the stro fans as the yanks will still prevail in this 1

 

[yankeesince59]

...back away from the ledge everyone...pasta is right.

 

[Messiah717]

...back away from the ledge everyone.

I think it has a lot to do with his season last year and now this. Same crap as game 1 last year against Boston.

 

[Rick2583]

Lets see if the asshole clueless Joe waits until another pitcher gives up 6-8 runs before he takes his ass out. Something he made a habit of doing last year.

 

[Messiah717]

Hey Sabathia if you're going to suck at least get a uniform that fits.

 

[Messiah717]

If they're going to lose anyway I hope the fat fuck gives up 15 runs.
