    It's funny how teams match up against each other. sometimes funier than others ;-) Usually the people that gloat the most are the first to disappear when things get rough, and their words look silly. yeah that's who I was talking to because like you said they won't be around when it's our turn to gloat mean time i will just have to keep waiting 4 our turn to gloat

    LOL, it would be hard to top your own shots at your team, even if I wanted to gloat.

    Maybe you could teach a class for our trolls and show them how it's done?

    As Sir Winston so famously said, those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Two years ago, almost to the day, the Sox beat the Yanks (and C.C.) 4-3. That made us 8-0 vs. the empire and gave us a two-game lead in the standings. All was right with the world. Two months after that, NYY swept four from us at the stadium ... and you know the rest of the story. Don't get me wrong, I'd much rather be us than them. We're younger, more talented, a bit more solid on the mound, and we have Tito. But I never, ever, write off the Yankees (who I equate to Jason from "Friday the 13th").

    I'm with you Lloyd.  To bastardize a quote from one of my favorite movies, "I don't want to hear the Yankees dead, I want to see the Yankees dead."  Despite my hopes to the contrary, I just can't envision continued dominance of our foes from NY.  They'll be right there till the end.  And you can bet your bottom dollar that by the trade deadline, they'll pick up a very good, quality starter.  They have the farm system and the pesos to make this happen.

         It took the Red Sox years to realize it...but the essence of the game is pitching, Zack. Right now, the Sox starting pitching is better than that of the Yankees.

         Before the season started, I had stated that the key to the Sox season was Josh Beckert...that for the Sox to seriously content for a title, Beckert would have to stay healthy, and regain his form as a quality #1 starter. He has.

    Some posters, I'm sure, if you called them crazy (which most of your posts about me kinda do), might stop posting their opinions of you. I'm not one of them. I was also told it was just my imagination that the Yankee fans and their Sox fan friends talk somewhere else about posters here. Ask LMR (the guy who gave you your avatar) if that's true or not, since he was talking to (ahem) Jessey while I was posting to him the other night. Imagine that.

    Here's some reality for you. Job well done with the Yankee PR work you're doing here. FTR, "Dameon666" was a Giants/Angels fan, but nice throwing in the Padres.

    As far as Pike exposing Jessey, I thought it was unbelievable that he was posing as a Sox fan on another board since I'd been asking him to identify himself here forEVA, and he always refused. If I thought for a second he was posting under the same name somewhere else, I would have googled it myself. And Zac was listed as well. I'm not sure why you keep including yourself, since it wasn't "NHSteven", and you say it wasn't you. Why keep saying your identity was stolen?

    What's funny to me is that you go after Beni and then Pike, and now you follow posters around who say anything about Softy. Do you just like to keep up with all the drama? Why come to a rival baseball board and get involved in all the "family" arguments? If you, supposedly, come here to talk baseball, why do you spend your time policing the forum for any negative Yankee comments, and try to eliminate the posters here you don't like? I, personally, do not get why a Yankee fan not living in Yankeeland wouldn't want to talk to his own team's fans, or at least read what they have to say. It's weird to me that this is the only place you want to be.

    I may have misunderstood you, but it appeared you lumped me in with JE.

    This is untrue, I haven't followed the softy controversies, I would just poke around at random and find the barrage; FTR I have at times complimented his posts in the past. Also, most of his critics are RS fans, and justifiably so. Ellsbury? Wakefield? Varitek? Ok, Lowrie I could see. Drew DID help in '07.

    Kim, you kept talking about some "sideboard" where yankee fans from here complained to their sox friends about bad things said about the yankees here, and plotted against posters here.

    I didn't realize that you were talking about the "Trufans" forum. Even Jete who you like told you that you were wrong about the other forum. I don't even remember pike talking about the plotting over there. That seemed to be your creation. Have you ever been there to verify your claims. J-Bay never said plotting went on over there. Where did you get this from?

    As to my avatar, I was using one of Pedro pushing Popeye to the ground, and Los suggested I use this one. I thought it was a great idea and adopted it. How does this tie into your conspiracy theory?

    Since you have trouble grasping the concept that this is just a game, I'll put it in terms you can understand.

    A cardinal rule of warfare is never underestimate your enemy, and that is how I feel about the yankees.

    TP:  I wish that this would happen, unfortunately, we RS fans may be getting a tad too giddy.  Consider, the Yanks have a good record and can mash, so even mediocre pitching should, repeat should, make them playoff contenders (agree, once the playoffs start - i.e., better teams and starting pitching they may have issues).  Also, they have a deep farm system and deeper pockets.  Granted, starting pitching may be scarce at the trading deadline, but some teams with a decent starter or two (Padres, etc.), that aren't playoff bound would be glad to shed some salary, get rid of a starter not intending to re-sign with them, for a nice haul of prospects/salary dump.  I may sound like a worried Wanda, but it seems like everytime fans start to discount the dangerous Yankees as over-the-hill, pitching poor, etc., they find a way to bounce back.  This year will be no different I'm afraid.

    What did you say that I avoided? You certainly didn't answer my questions about how you knew all the things you purport to know. What do I have to do with Los? Am I supposed to be him too? I looked around and saw a post where Los made a crack about Jesseyeric may be lurking around. I assume that is what you are referring to. I can't speak for him, but that didn't seem like he was talking to Jesseyeric, seemed more like a crack at you and your obsession with Jesseyeric. How does that concern me?

    "It is telling that a "Red Sox fan" would go to such lengths to defend a Yankee fan."

    My friends are my friends no matter what baseball team they follow. I think this tells more about you than it does me.

    How did you come to the brilliant conclusion that I was Jesseyeric? You don't like Jesseyeric, you don't like me, therefore, I must be Jesseyeric. Kind of ironic that you get so upset about some people accusing you of being pike (I'm not one) and then you turn around and accuse me of being Jesseyeric.

    I've been posting here for years, do you really think you can bully everybody who doesn't fit your definition of what a "true red sox fan" is, off of your baseball forum?  

    By the way, I love to see the yankees lose as much as you do, so if they keep on sucking, that is fine with me.

               Best record in the A.L,pounding the ball are a remarkable rate,more than sound defensively,eight atraight wins going on nine,three oustanding starters and Lackey could well make it four if his last outing is any indication,not to mention Wakefieldyeah,he is still a legit number six man) and Aceves(some one compared him the Bob Stanley and it could be a valid point)not to mention three or four hurlers in the minors with very good promise(I love Renaud)for the future and Paps seems  back to his halcyon days,with Wheeler and Jenks now back,not the best pen in the game but better than a lot of folks here on a supposed Red Sox would have you believe.all this and still the negatives continue to flow.Are you guys serious,or is it just a couple of chronic malcontents carping and whining under multiple forum names.God,I hope it's the latter because if it isn't this forum isn't worth the time it takes for a heart to beat just once.

    The only real question at this point is who the Yankees are going to be able to get via trade to stabalize their rotation, because right now it is more or less a mismatch.  With SEA hovering around .500 and Feliz what should be the cornerstone of that franchise, hopefully NY isn't able to pry him away.  Oakland is buried right now, has good young arms, and Beane is never shy about making a deal (Cargo for Holliday....oops).  The Twins will have to accept their fate as sellers.  Liriano is currently working on another no no but I don't know that he or anyone on MINN is going to  be a real difference maker.  In the NL the likely sellers look like LA and CHI.  The Cubs don't have much to offer, Dempster?  I have no clue if the Dodgers are interested in shipping either Kershaw or Billingsly, but the Yankees will probably be asking.

    Right now the 2011 Yankees remind me a lot of the 98/99 Red Sox, when it was Pedro and guys like Ramon Martinez/Saberhagen/Mercker etc...

    Colon is headed to the DL, shocking, Garcia can junk it by Cleveland but had no chance against the Red Sox.  Burnett is so unpredictable and who knows what Hughes is going to give them this year.

    NY will be fine against most of the league, as evidenced by their bounce back against CLE, but realistically they have to find another legit starter, which I'm guessing they will.
