Objects In The Rearview Mirror Are Closer Than You Expect: Yankees
Sep 19, 2007 | 8:46PM | report this

Look out Bosox fans, here come the dreaded Yankees.

Just when you hoped the Evil Empire was dead, they climb out of the grave and come after you.

Now look in that mirror, see, there it is, right behind you, creeping up to steal your soul and end your cheers.

 

 Is it Godzilla?

What is that awful sight.

With 9 and 10 games remaining, respectively, the Bosox and Yankees are keeping it close, with Boston's 1.5 game lead.

The networks will be playing this up on FOXSPORTS and SportsCenter every night.  McNabb could throw for 600 yards and 12 touchdowns; it won't be the lead story.

The pencil necked geek analysts will scurry out of their gopher holes and tell us why this or that will happen, whether the team wants the 4 days rest or 5...yadda, yadda, yadda.

Still, the good news for Boston is the minimum impact of bad news.  Even if the Yankees do come in and steal the division title, the Sox will win the Wild Card.

Hey, what's that behind the car.  It looks like a ghost.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!  It's the ghost of Bucky F'n Dent!!!!!!

Be afraid Boston, be very afraid.   JoshQPublic just order 12 Sammy's at the bar.

Well Husk we've had it comin'. We've been yapping it up all summer and it's coming to bite us in the ARSE.....NOT YET....HOLD ON THERE DOGGY!. This puppy's not over with by a long stretch. Sawx got 3 away and finishes 6 at home. The 3 away are @ T.B.
The Yanks on the other hand have 3 more at home with Tor. and finishes up on the final 6 on the road.

The Yankee fans deserve to YAK it up all they can right now, but fair warning to them. IF the Yanks don't catch Boston and have to face the ANGELS in the 1st round...they'll be one and out. Angels have the Yankee's number.
AND the RED SOX NATION will come at ya both barrels ablazing!
But being Yankee fans they won't consider that happening .... so shoot away boys/gals have at us!

Lisa, if that's your real name...I think most Bosox fans would like to rip A-Rod's head off anyway, or sign him as a Red Sox.

Socrates, I'm not used to seeing a post from you without a nerd replying after you, saying you're a fool. The Yankee surge should be expected with that payroll.

Who? ...J URKEL? I know the boy LOVES me because I pay attention to him. He wrote another blog yesterday on guess what? You got it! B..B..BB..BBBarry B..B..BB..BBBonds. So many people wanted to hear from URKEL that he got a whole 2 comments. Count em 2. And that was in the first 24 hrs! Yep he has himself a following!

But in all honesty about the Yankees. They've done very well since the All-Star break. They still have an uphill climb to catch the Sawx.
Boston's got to stop giving away victories! Or should I say Gagne's giving away victories! Francona's got to shut this guy down!

Hahahaha LOOK OUT!!! THE SKY IS FALLING, THE SKY IS FALLING!!! Here's the problem for the Sox fans and Sox alike. If the Sox hold off the Yanks for the division they'll go bonkers claiming clear superiority when in fact it has nothing to do with it. The Yankes are clearly the team peaking at the right time and even if the Sox do hold on, they're damaged goods in terms of team solidarity, unity, cohesion and peaking. Don't look good for the leaders. Slshusker is dead on. That object in the rearview mirror is larger that it appears. Something like....you're seeing cheetah and and in fact it's KING KONG!!!!. Be afraid Sox fans. Be VERY Afraid. Or not. Just bluster along like you knew what you're talking about. There's always that.

Yankeehawk and Outlaw...You guys deserve to yak it up. The Yankees have played great baseball in the second half and have earned their position.
But be careful things don't always go as planned. Ask Theo with Gagne.
Just takes one bad series to mess up your whole season. And I hear ANGELS calling out YANKEES.
Better hope you go farther than the SAWX in the post season because if you don't you'll have a hard time listening to us celebrate.

The Cardinals were only one game out of first place a few weeks ago. I had Cardinal fans trash talking on my blog staying stuff like "it's over," but the Cardinals then hit a losing streak and those fans suddenly went away. There's still plenty of baseball left. The Yankees theoretically could still miss the postseason at this point. I don't think they will, but Yankee fans can't act cocky until their team takes first place.

I keep hearing about the Angels having the Yankees number. It sounds to me that Sorates is having fears of facing Those Damn Yankees in the playoffs. Should worry more about Cleveland facing Boston.

All the Yankee/Boston trash talk aside. This is the best freakin rivalry in sports. Where in hell would the American League East be without this rivalry. Could you ask for a more suspensful exiciting finish to the regular season? Baseball at its best.

NO fears here ineed meds: At the moment the Yankees would be facing the Angels. Seems a bit disrespectful to the Angels the way Yankee fans are talking right past them and saying they'll meet the Sawx in the ALCS. Especially since the Angels have had a winning record against the Yanks come playoff time.

Josh, your thoughts clarify the Boston side of the subject. Thanks for playing. Now here's your cookie.

Hey, I'm pulling for Boston; both teams are in the playoffs. Coming back from 14 games down gives any team a huge boost.

the sox are resting up. 1st place. wild card. whatever. The New York Mets were the only team last year to win a series with the home field advantage. The Red Sox shouldn’t worry about the division or home field and focus on the post-season.

and i swear i didnt see your rear view mirror till after i posted mine. i swear.

slshusker,

If people were as superstitions as I am, they would not have been flaunting anything! But that is what you get BO SOX fans, and BTW... I am not, let me repeat, not a Yankees fan. Just liked the post! And the pics are great! Plus a Redskins fan I can appreciate a good rivalry!

Take care,
Ang

Be VERY worried about facing Cleveland's mashers and their stud starters Sabathia and Carmona. Not to mention Borowski on the back end of the pen.

Regardless whether or not Boston holds off the Yankees, they have to face Cleveland and the Yanks face the Angels. It's Cleveland vs. Anaheim for the ALCS. Cleveland wins the AL pennant 4 games to 2.

Suomi87, I left ONE comment about the rambling attempt at a sentence no one could decipher. I wasn't the first to post that. For that, you sent foxmail, ragging on me and posted profanity days later.

It looks like you're in time out. Learn a little from it and you may be a better person. Though the internet is an anonymous media, accountability still exists.

If you have a problem, talk to Fox, but after that last comment, why do you think you don't have your original blog back? Please remember, when you cuss people out with four-letter tirades, EVERYONE sees them, including me, and you offended me. If I offended you with my blog, report me.

By the way, peace of mind is "piece" of mind, and yes, this is a public forum, so why wouldn't you want to keep it clean? Keep it clean and people will read your blogs, OK? My pics offended you, but you think it's ok to drop the f-bomb on people because it's freedom of speech? You can't have it both ways.

Lisa, it's not worth the effort.
Our anonymous, 14 year old antagonist learned some new words and wants to share.
It was interesting how he apologized and begged for Fox to re-activate his account. This was followed by his junior high language. Ignore the kid.

The kid is such a coward that he deleted my rated G comments on his newest ID'd NFL blog and sent me a retarded FoxMail telling me not to comment. Interesting double standard the child has.
