Oh' and while we're at it, let's bring Manny in, just to antagonize BONN.

If you think that would antagonize me, then I'm CONVINCED you haven't carefully read anything I've written. I've probably said at least ten times in this thread that I want them to sign Manny. You missed it every time? All I said was that I had sympathy for fans of small market teams because they're not playing on a level playing field and Yankee fans here went berserk.

Now that Manny has no market and the Dodgers are looking elsewhere, what are the chances that we get Manny to take a backloaded contract with $10M the first year and $22.5M per for the last 2 seasons? It's $15M more than he would have made with the Red Sox and $10M more than what the Dodgers offered.

Or maybe we offer $40M for 2 years and the chance to stick it to the Red Sux 19 times a year for the next 2 years.

i don't see us getting Manny now unless he just tells the Yankees he'll sign on for nothing just so he can win another championship & stick it to the Red Sux... i don't see a Boras client doing that.

I'm choosing not to continue responding to distortions of or outright lies about my views. Sorry.

Your not a real Yankee fan. You'll throw them under the bus, to help some poor defenseless team win it all. Again, you want to talk morality, then start talking about the steroids!

Those are all figments of your imagination

Hmm, seems like everyone else has the same imagination.

You also spoke out against' the Yankees moves, almost insinuating the same kinds of sentiments all those other Yankee haters feel about us.

I'll say it again. 'I have no sympathy for any of them'. I know those fans and I've seen them and their media in action. Particularly in the midwest and one especially farmers market city. I don't appreciate it, never did and never will. It isn't worth it and not only do I 'not' feel sorry for them, but I very much ENJOY the pain and suffering some of them go through.

You have to understand, they certainly enjoyed my pain as they smashed it in my face over the years. GO NEW YORK!!! FUCK EVERYONE ELSE!

That's how you do it to everyone. You make long drawn out paragraphs of switch hitting comments and then want people to back and get the exact quote. What's the point of doing that? You'll just shoot it all down again. You have an excuse for everything.

I called you out on it and you wanna pretend it never happened.

And you still haven't addressed the steroid issues. A much, much, much higher problem then a team trying to put together a team to compete. Do you think it was fair for Bonds to do what he did to baseball, the fans in S.F. and then Hank Aaron?

[Edited by - 4949 on 12-31-2008 7:24 PM]

You know something BONN? Your entitled to support who or whatever you want. But if you come after the Yankees, then you'll only get an ear full.

Like most of baseball players, he cheated and deserves all the criticism he's gotten. Not sure how this topic came up though.

What's your point? Have you never criticized ANY Yankees?

Which I haven't done.
You are right, though, in a sense. What's really happening is that if you don't worship Cashman, you'll get an earful.

what's actually happening is if u accuse Cashman of being a crappy GM w/no factual knowledge or desire to even listen to others when they educate you on the moves he's made as a GM, you'll get an earful... when u make sweeping statements that someone has no skills as a GM & yet have no idea what you're talking about, you'll get an earful... when you justify your personal disdain for Brian Cashman based on half of his current tenure as the Yankees GM & completely disregard the other half, then you get an earful... just get your facts straight before u pretend to know what you're talking about Bonn... it's not that much to ask.

You wanna be moral and excuse the Yankees for other fans, etc. views, then address the other things that actually hurt baseball. Let me give you an example of how great the Yankees organization is.

When the Yankees got Babe Ruth from bastan, he made baseball great again, after the chicago white sux threw the w.s. a few years earlier, trying to taint the sport.

Well' the same thing can be said again. The Yankees spent a lot to get a lot. We got big with the spending, but in the end, they will once again make baseball matter, especially after this whole steroid fiasco has been going on. Someone's gotta do it and who better to do it then the NY team?? Let them bitch and complain all they want to. Don't be ashamed to be a Yankee.

Cashman's a Yankee.

What's your point? Have you never criticized ANY Yankees?

ABSOLUTELY! Pettitte, Giambi, Sheffield, Rocket and a hand full of other recent Yankees who either got caught or admitted to using steroids. Remember guys like Jack the flipper. A former chicago white sux player who thought he could just put on the pins and flip the fans because they weren't happy paying him all that money and not living up to it.

Yeah, I let some Yankees know about it.

Everything Yankee except cheaters. Remember that BONN.

Each and every night, when you put on the Yankee pins (pajamas), you must fight to the death for the honor of our team.

Never have. I've always said he's about average but we should be able to do better than average.

NOW DO YOU SEE HOW YOU DID THAT????????

You asked me a question, one I answered clearly and all you had to do was agree or say nothing more about it. It was answered. You come back with 'what's my point'???

Dude, go root for and feel sorry for the scrubs and the bastan bastards and quit calling yourself a Yankee fan. Your a word twister. There's proof all over this thread. I know exactly what you were saying and I made my comments on it already. Like I said, no matter what I say, you'll always have some excuse. I don't have this problem with guys like TMS, who is a true Yankee fan and he lives in L.A.!
