...lol.

...and what a fucking tease.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

I'll even watch the NBA over this crap. I can't watch a team where half the lineup is either close or is hitting under .200.

...^^^


Le Bron in his 11 consecutive year in the Playoffs, Curry and Thompson, antidote for Block Wall Defense(s)...

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Maybe the boys from Kansas City will keep the Rays in last place by sweeping the allowing the Yankees to hold on to fourth. Nice bomb from Mac but again too late in the game.

 

[blgridesagain]

...shocker !

And OF COURSE Nova was living with "horseshoes" because Toronto should've scored 14 runs instead of four.

 

[blgridesagain]

...lol.

...and what a fucking tease.

Wait, there's more - hold on a second as I put on my rose colored pinstriped homerific glasses.
BA w/risp coming into tonight's game.
Gardy .143
Headley .167
Beltran .167
Arod .185
Tex .188
McCann .216
Castro .231
Gregorius .281
Ellsbury .300

...pointing out this team's shortcomings is verboten.

Yep, right on schedule.

The Yankee's W-L record and problems are plain to see, I even provided some exact numbers not too long ago in posts #30 and 35.


.....do you actually think I'm somehow held back from saying the Yankees are sucking and Cashman should could be fired? Are you drunk...?...feel okay?
jeez


You should've learned by now when you take shitass cheap shots at me with innuendo,convenient ignorance and double standards, I usually respond in kind (when I'm here). Maybe you actually secretly enjoy it!.....lol
Recent example in this very thread- it was said (NOT BY ME):
"Nova has been a pleasant surprise" ~~~ I have no problem with that....but I think most here know if I had said it, there would be one of your typical insults......lmao.......predictably predictable.


No problem for me, I kinda thrive on it because it's entertaining and adds some spice to the board's usual same overriding everyday game by game circular firing squad "analysis" of the Yankee season.
Sorta like that old cliche', the definition of insanity is doing something over and over again and expecting the same result.


Keep plugging- at least there's something more entertaining than the Yanks' current performance.

 

[yankeesince59]

...flip flop...small steps, small steps.

The very definition of "Sadist"... now hurry along you may be late...

Entertainment is NOT your forte. Hurling insults; bashing others because they don't agree with your narrow point of view, or believe a word you say, is your only talent, and I would not call that talent, rather harassment... but keep using this message board, to vent your frustrations....

Lmao....look who's talking....lmaooooo

I'm light years ahead of you.
First off- I'm nobody's butt boy...and, I'm able to both criticize and give credit where it is due, from Yankee baseball to presidential campaigns.

Prejudice and bias are losing propositions.

 

[yankeesince59]

...wow, some things evidently go right over some people's heads.

...and asking for credit?...for what, flip flopping?.



...but hey, let's give Cashman a pass.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

some peeps just can't get airborne above the blurry clouds, and get lost in them...never to see un-obstructed sunshine....ie, the truth of matters, far beyond their ability to comprehend....

criticique from "Baseball to Presidential Campaigns", say WTF...? (seriously, you're fooling no one, except your Cell-F)....

yeah, whenever Attila the Hun is running against Genghis Chump...? LMAO, and your serious on top of it, (Laughing even harder)...

back to baseball, obviously another Post hijacked, just prior to 'flip flopping'....

Wow, some things really do go right over some people's heads.

Okay, let's waste more time with the usual song and dance generated by you're misinterpretation or failure to actually understand my post(s).
I don't know if it's intentional or not, I'm beginning to lean towards the former.
Re: my above post.

I wasn't asking credit for MYSELF, if you actually read it I was referring to being ABLE to both criticize and give credit, where it is due....and both of us know this was concerning Cashman and directed at me as I originally and clearly listed your innuendo --> "pointing out this team's shortcomings is verboten"

Stop being coy, you're the one who seems to be muddying the water in this current dialogue. It's no secret I am the lone poster here who has had the longest leash with Cashman and HAVE in fact already said I gave Cashman a pass the past two years (with reasons/opinion) and he should be fired if the 2016 team doesn't improve on last year's performance.
There it is- I'm not trying to hide anything, no problemo.
Want to disagree or laugh at me for giving Cashman "a pass" the past two years, that's fine, but I am not flip flopping on this issue as I ALSO said (unlike some other people), I am quite capable and willing to offer criticism and don't mind giving credit where it is due (Cashman). In case you can't grasp it, this means openly agreeing or disagreeing with a particular move or trade made by the GM.....and I mentioned "presidential campaigns" to indicate the range of my personal ability to agree or disagree with "someone".....and judging from what I've read in other political threads (as well as Yankee threads), there are "some people" who evidently disagree with a GM or Prez Candidate on 100% of issues, policies,comments or trades...lol

Fine and dandy....no reason to suspect impaired judgement due to prejudice...none whatsoever....!

Edit....dit dot dit dot. ....spelling error....dit dot dit dot....

Aren't you guys tired of being spoken to like you're a couple of 7 year olds?

lol

Go ahead....proceed with your attack on me.......

*edit. Forgot the "?".

Oh, one more thing....I just farted.

 

[yankeesince59]

...sorry to disappoint, but I'm neither complaining nor did I get "whalloped"...but if believing that helps you to sleep better I'm glad.

[yankeesince59]

...looks like we are in agreement then.

WTF is going on here???

...batting practice.

 

[Messiah717]

I really don't want to get into having to consider locking threads but the bickering is getting very silly at this point. It's really just arguing about level of suckage and level of blame at this point. My brother and I had a long discussion about the Yankees this weekend. If it was me I'd blow everybody out of here which includes both Cashman and Girardi. Girardi is a good manager in my opinion and would easily get a job elsewhere. I just think this team is going to have to start anew. He's the last holdover from a dynasty mindset that needs to be moved on from. As for Cashman he cannot be allowed to escape responsibility for the current state of this roster and a very weak farm system. Scapegoating just Girardi which is the likely scenario should be completely rejected by Yankee fans.

 

[yankeesince59]

^^^pretty much. There has to be accountability and Cashman is the GM, period. He's exhibited that without a blank checkbook he cannot construct a championship caliber team and/or a team we can be proud of. I don't see this franchise returning to glory anytime soon.

...this roster has been flawed for multiple years now...and this team has no soul. And I've been saying "blow it up" for awhile now...be "sellers" at the trade deadline.


...Mess, ask yourself, whenever someone mentions the Yankees, what current player do you immediately think of?...personally, I struggle with coming up with a name...and sadly, that tells me all I need to know.

I don't come up with anyone and that's what's sad. Once Jeter left that was it. There's simply no identity anymore and the leadership void after Jeter's departure has been huge. That's what happens though when your organization stops producing home grown talent. It also makes it very easy to be very apathetic when it comes to this franchise right now.

 

[yankeesince59]

...hell. even during the lean years of poor teams there were "home grown" players I could follow and pull for...seems like all we have now is a bunch of mercenaries.

...and for me, it's simply hard to connect with them. Only reason for me to go to the park now is for Old Timers Day.

 

[Messiah717]

On one hand some of this is the result of all those years of making the playoffs. On the other hand some is the result of waiting and waiting before pushing the reset button.

 

[yankeesince59]

...Though maybe having the #1 draft pick is nice, there are many many late round draft picks who excelled...Mattingly was one of them...Smoltz, Pettitte, and Pujols too,...regardless of their draft position the Yanx have simply not groomed and cultivated the picks they have made over the last 20 years or so...I mean since Jeter and the core 4 Cano is the only farm hand/future star that comes to mind.

...either people doing the drafting/scouting are picking the wrong players or the farm system itself leaves a lot to be desired...Cashman is also responsible for overseeing this.
