Got to love the RedSox/Yankees rivalry


Recommended Posts

I'm a Yankee fan and am scared of the Sox this year. Schilling is outright awesome and Wakefield always manages to own us. It's going to be a good series, but I have my doubts about the Yanks. They have no pitching what so ever, right now, and the Bosox have some really explosive hitters.

This is going to be an awesome series. I hate the Yankees, they always find some irritating way to win. And I already know FOX is going to over-dramatize the Rivera situation (don't get me wrong, it was horrible what happened, but FOX shouldn't make people dying a side-story to a baseball game).

In the words of Curt Schilling, I hope Boston "shuts up" those damn Yankees.

1) Fox is going to, most likely, focus on the spat last year between Pedro and Zimmer

2) Even if they do lose, one playoff loss is going to "shut up" the yanks. Not after how many years of smacking around the sox.

i just want you all to be aware of how much of a yankees suck up tim mccarver is. its amazing how he extolls the greatness of the yankees and mentions the red soxs as an afterthought. just pay attention i am sure he will not let me down during this series as he didn't last year. i swear that dude is on the yankee payroll.

go red sox!!

Why would they focus on Pedro vs. Zimmer? Zimmer isn't even THERE anymore, let alone they beat that horse to death during last year's ALCS. If anything, they will look at A-Rod vs. Varitek, but I still think they will make sure to pound in the Rivera thing pretty hard. They did it tonight in the Braves/Astros game with Ken Caminiti. It probably doesn't bother too many other people or they don't even notice, but it bothers me. It's like they don't know how to discern real life from sports. Just my opinion.

As for the other statement...oh well. In the immortal words of Chris Tucker AKA Smokey "Why you gotta bring up ol' ****?"

sox in 6.

on another note: anyone see the pregame production? they are saying the red sox are the rebels and the yankees the empire but they have the bats/lightsaber colors backwards. red sox are sporting red ones and the yankees blue ones. i know its cuz of team colors but i found it amusing.

I love how people seem to think the Yankees are the bad team in this series because of how much they spend. Boston isn't exactly a small market team there either. They aren't rebels. They are just like the Yankees only with less wins.

    • When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
    • I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
    • Full ACK. I went too far adressing your post specifically. And as you said, it up to us customers as participant of the market dynamic as it happens to decide whether we spend our money on a product or not. The responsibility is to the company. In case of this price hike one could assume that MS is expecting or even starting to see a new interest in XBox hardware so they want to avoid losses per unit sold. I find it fair enough that they granted a period in which everyone interested could grab a unit for the current price (Amazon.de has a reliable stock of XBox Series X digital, which I bought last December after having sold my day one Series X a year ago). It is not that they cash up their customers starting on Monday. Cheers and let's cling to our perfectly fine hardware as long as we deem it worthy in relation to purchasing something new!
    • Not surprising at all. Apple got three months worth of marketing hype with the Macbook Neo's incredible low launch price. They have sowed the idea that the Neo is the best value laptop and that idea will last for years even though the value is no longer there. They do this every five years or so with a single new product that is amazing value which distracts from the rest of their products being horrendously overpriced.
