thegreekone 0 #26 September 30, 2005 Quote If the Yankees and Red Sox end the season in a tie do they have a 1 game playoff or do they look at the records against each other? I can't remember. If "shmiff".....this post will soon become superfluous due to the Indians winning their last 3 games. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NWFlyer 2 #31 September 30, 2005 Quote Forgive me, I'm 50, and my memory isn't what it used to be! No problem, it's just we Mariners fans (even those who adopted the team well after 1995) have been thoroughly steeped in the Legend of 1995!"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

nbblood 0 #33 September 30, 2005 Aahh, but this fallacy assumes that I hate the Yankees for the reasons you describe, which is not true. I don't have any problem with a team spending more money to win. I don't have any problem with a team winning because they use this strategy. I just hate em just because they're from New York. Anyway, I do respect the Yankee tradition and their winning organization. I just hope they lose all the time. My favorite teams are the Dodgers and whoever is playing the Yankees/Mets.

lawrocket 3 #36 October 1, 2005 Quote root for the Yanks or leave the country I don't root for the Yankees, nor do I root against them. The only reason I root for the Yankees come playoffs is the fact that my Angels are the only team that consistently beats the Yankees. Remember how those Angels bats lit up the Yanks a couple of years ago? Sure, the Angels aren't what they were a couple of years ago - they are nowhere near as scrappy. But I look forward to seeing them make their way up into the playoffs and getting another World Series for us. My wife is hotter than your wife.

lawrocket 3 #38 October 1, 2005 Quote As a Mariner's fan....ahh, the 1995 playoffs were sweet indeed. Blues, Dave Hey, the year the Angels won it, the Cubs and the Red Sox were doing well. I saw the possibility of the Red Sox, Angels or Cubs winning a World Series as a sign of the impending Armageddon. No way it could be allowed to happen. I guess it's just the Cubs. And you can't just look at the playoff game. Look at what the Mariners did to get there. The Angels blew a fucking 13 game lead over the Mariners in 6 weeks. I'm a Raider fan, an Angels fan and a LA Kings fan. Life has not been easy for this last 20 years, okay? My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not that everyone hates the Yankees for this reason. You can go ahead and hate the Yankees because their from NY, that doesn't bother me. People who bother me are people who hate the Yankees because they "pay their players so much money..." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BillyVance 34 #44 October 1, 2005 Well, the Sox did beat the Yankees last night to pull even with 2 games to go. This is gonna be one hell of a 2 game series to determine the winner.
