Poll: Yankees Atop the Wild Card

[Randy Twizzle]

Why do I hate the Yankee's & Redsox??????  Let me count the ways!!!!!!

1. Wade Boggs on a horse.

2. Manny's just being Manny.

3. Dave Winfield, Mr. April.

4. "How tragic, Donnie Baseball never got to play in the World Series    BFD!

5. "If only Buckner had caught the ball."  Dent homerun would've been caught anywhere else."

6. Arod, Jeeter & King George.

And many, many, many, more reasons.

7. Yankee fans arguing whether this player or that player is a "true Yankee."

8. Billy Crystal talking about Mickey Mantle for the 1000th time

9. Rudy G in his field box seat (everybody knows you're a big fan, so the Yankee jacket and hat aren't really necessary anymore)

10. Standing ovations for Jason Giambi

Manny is a putz, but I think his behavior is being orchestrated by his handlers.

HUH? His "handlers" told him to make a right turn in the batter's box on the tapper back to the mound in Tampa Bay?

His "handlers" told him to go take a leak inside the monster but barely get out in time for the next pitch?

I don't really hate the Red Sox.  I just hate Curt Schilling and his santimonious, right wing, Bush lovin' idiocy.  Put a cork in it would ya'?

I liked him better when he was on the Phillies.

See what I mean. Why won't he just shut the fuck up?

I'm guessing Frank Robinson is a Democrat!

Robinson: Erase stats after failed drug testsAssociated Press

WASHINGTON -- Washington Nationals manager Frank Robinson thinks Rafael Palmeiro's statistics should be erased because the Baltimore Orioles slugger was suspended for a failed drug test.

Should MLB erase the statistics of players who fail drug tests from official records?

Yes

No

"Where do you go back, stop and say, 'OK, when did he start using steroids?' To eliminate all that, and get the players' attention, you wipe the whole thing out," Robinson told MLB.com in a story posted on the Web site Tuesday night.

"Why put the burden on baseball to try and figure out where to go, and maybe put an asterisk? Just wipe the whole thing out."

Palmeiro was suspended Aug. 1, less than three weeks after he recorded his 3,000th hit to become one of four players in major league history with that many hits and at least 500 homers.

His 569 career homers entering Tuesday rank ninth in history.

Robinson, a member of the Hall of Fame, is sixth with 586 homers. He has been reluctant to discuss steroids.

Asked by MLB.com if he would wipe out Palmeiro's records, Robinson answered: "I would. He was found to have used steroids, and he served a 10-day suspension."

"I was surprised and taken aback that he was using steroids, because I never thought about him being a person that might be a steroids user," Robinson continued. "I always admired him for the way he went about his work, the way he performed on the field and the way he conducted himself off the field."

Frank Robinson is a legend, a baseball institution. But Curt Schilling is still playing. Listen I hate steroids and I agree there should be serious consequences for thier use, but Schilling is just a santimonious blow hard who wants to wag his finger a play the holier than thou role. Just throw the ball and shut up already.

Yeah Curt why can't you just get with the program, you're just a dumb ball player who should mouth tired cliches when he's asked to speak. MLB can't have guys who speak their own mind, it might upset the fans and that's not good for business.

[Big Al]

Don't think, Meat; just throw!

[Soulstation1]

go native americans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lost a chance for first place in the w/c last night

[Johnny E]

I don't deny him the right to speak, I just think he's a pompous ass as all. As I said, I liked him a lot better when he was on the Phillies before he was saved.
