I wish I knew what it felt like to be a yankee fan right now.

 

Just act like an arrogant jackass all the time no matter how deserved your cockiness is.

As much as i hate them I really wish i could have reason to be that damn cocky. Even just one year.

 

Yeah it kinda sucks. I'm sure eventually one of our teams will win it all. I just hope they do it while I'm young enough to celebrate (meaning living in the city, childless so I can handle going out, getting drunk and celebrating)

Exactly. I've only got one more year (for sure) of living in the city right now. After I graduate who knows where i'll end up. It would be special; especially with my job, to get it done next year.

I live on-campus at UIC right now so it would be awesome to have even another NLCS year during these years.

Jerry Hariston Jr and Chad Guadin are world champions, nice work Jimbo

 

Other guys who just got a ring who make you say :scratch::

Eric Hinske

Damaso Marte

Jose Molina

Nick Swisher

 

There's at least three or four every year who get a ring by virtue of being the backup catcher or the 24th or 25th man on a World Series-winning roster. Do we realize that So Taguchi and David Eckstein have two rings EACH?

So let's pretend the Cubs just won instead of the Yankees. YEAHHHHHH!

 

What would Joe Buck's call be?

 

"Bartman, goats, curses, Moises Alou, all in the rear view mirror! The Cubs are world champions!"

How did Swisher get a flag that quickly? He was waving it within about two minutes of the final out.

Depressed silence.

What exactly is the problem with Swisher being a world champ again?

 

I can't put my finger on it, honestly. It might just be that the guy's a total loon, and I mean that in all seriousness.

I'm not a Hendry fan, but what the [expletive] is this supposed to even mean?

 

Because dude....Jimbo let go of World Championship caliber players duh.

Doesnt everyone who was on the team during the season get a ring? I believe Nomar got a ring in 2004.

As obnoxious as Swisher is, he was a pretty big part of the Yankees team this year. I wouldn't put him on that list.

 

Hinske, Marte, and Molina were also the same basic role palyers every team has, so why soulndt they deserve a ring? Should only The starters and Rivera get rings?

who changed the thread title? when i become president it will become legal - nay, mandatory - for john sterling to be karate kicked in the throat anytime he launches into that awful call.

Sterling and Waldman are the absolute worst in the business.

 

omg yes
