I'll never get tired of hating on the Yankees. But this story is a pretty poignant reminder that underneath the unis, we're all just people: Hours after managing the Yankees to their first World Championship in nine years, Joe Girardi managed to become a ...

5) We never have to hear "26 Rings" again4) It's official: even with a World Series ring, A-Rod is a douche3) Money still can buy championships2) Joe Girardi can afford the fishfacectomy he has been saving for1) Tim McCarver can end his 9-year celibacy a...

Yesterday, more than half of the eligible players jumped into the magic waters of free agency, like a horde of shoppers barreling down the halls of WalMart on Black Friday to grab the last Tickle Me Jim Croce. Not surprising to anyone, Jason Bay was among...

Just one World Series title in the twenty-first century? That's unfortunate because, y'know, we've got two.But I can't give credit to Girardi for the Yanks' World Series win. I mean, when you put a monkey in a li'l spacesuit and send him to the moon in a ...

Like Red, I am not ready for an off-season involving the number 27 and herds of bandwagon Yankee fans. So I cling to the faith that I generally save only for the Red Sox. And the blissful memories of the 2004 ALCS fuel that faith.Some Pettitte stats that...

It's tough to get all hot and bothered about the World Series when the Sox don't have a horse in the race. And, honestly, I don't care who wins it all. So long as it isn't the Yankees.A Yankees win would really make this one of the most insufferable winte...

From the latest US Weekly: [Kate] Hudson -- who has been front and center at [A Rod's] baseball games since they began dating this past spring -- has been bragging to pals about what a good lover Rodriguez is."They love sex!" a pal tells Us Weekly of the ...

Headwarmer: Hey, nipplehead. You know who I was just thinking of?Cashman: Who?Headwarmer: Brad Penny.Cashman: Headwarmer, I'm busy plotting the World Series parade route. No need to distract me with talk of that washed-up bum.Headwarmer: He was actually p...

I am not ready to give up on the Phillies. 2004 showed me that anything, anything at all, can happen in a seven game series. In my warped mind, last night's win just set the Yankees up for a harder fall.Cliff Lee brings his Yankee-killing ways to the hil...

The Yankee bats were too much for Cole Hamels and the Phillies, and to top off the suck, it was A-Rod who got things started. With the Phillies up 3-0 in the 4th and Mrs. Tex on first, A-Rod hit an opposite-field shot off a camera face to get on the boar...

I remember the feeling I used to get before every Pedro Martinez start. It was like being a kid waiting for Christmas morning, your birthday, and hot photos of a semi-nude Pamela Anderson to inexplicably drop from an airplane into your backyard tree fort....

So Cliff Lee manhandles the Yankees in Game One, coming into their house, slapping around their guys, drinking all their beer and having his way with their women.And now, with the Yankees facing a must-win scenario, unless they want to head to Philly down...

Honestly, Mazz, I know you need to sell papers and whatnot, so you need to be "controversial" and say things like "Hey, let's all root for the Yankees 'cause it'll get the Sox' front office to spend money."But even though I know you're speaking as a guy w...

Red mentioned the possibility a while ago but now it has become a reality: Pedro will pitch in Yankee Stadium. For me, this may be the highlight of the 2009 World Series. Unless, of course, A-Rod makes the series-ending error and collapses into a puddle o...

Five years ago, the one thing I never thought would happen in my lifetime, happened. In my lifetime.I am still in awe of it. Still have to remind myself it was real. And I am sincere when I tell my friends who are Cubs fans that I want to see their team g...

Five years later and STILL no statue of Dave Roberts in this city?Hey, Menino, you corrupt, bloated bastard. You want to be remembered for doing at least one thing during your fifty years in office that benefited the little man and didn't line your own po...

We were saddened to hear of the passing of AB, one of our comments section's regulars. In tribute, we give the mic to AB's brother, BB:"On October 20th at 7:38am, AB went down swinging and made his final trip to the dugout. AB (AKA Andy Block) was a lot o...

I'm fairly certain that A-Rod is no stranger to the art of sliding under some dude's legs. But even I was amazed at the blatant elbow-chop he put on Erick Aybar's nutsack while trying to break up a double play during last night's ALCS game. For those who ...

I hate to suggest it was the game in which NESN showed the Surviving Grady T-shirt. But, honestly, I think it was the game in which NESN showed the Surviving Grady T-shirt, sported by our good pal and SG regular Tex, no less.August 14 in Texas was probabl...
