But as far as the smaller market AL clubs go, they continue to make a good showing in the post season, and I'm glad to see the Tigers turned their piss poor franchise around in three years...I guess there is hope.

The Tigers aren't really a small market team, they turned it around by signing some guys. Just think about how much money they paid Rodriguez and Ordonez....you see the Royals doing something like that cause I don't.

Slimebrenner will certainly need a head on a pike after today. Might as well be Torre's.

Check that, now they're reporting that Torre will be fired, and replaced by Lou Pinella.

They did make some moves... but for a big key, don't overlook the fact they developed not one, but two pitchers who can throw 100 mph with vicious breaking pitches. There aren't really any other teams that have one guy like that. They have two. Not to mention several other good arms like Bonderman, Robertson, Rodney, etc. If the Royals did that their chances would be about 875 times better. Verlander and especially Zumaya are total freaks, and give them an advantage over other teams that nobody can match.

Mecca 10-07-2006 11:45 PM

That's why Verlander was a top 5 pick.

Wow, what a joke....Torre knows how to handle that clubhouse and all that shit. Yankees players should look at each other, well besides Jeter, who is probably the only Yankee i like.

I agree. Jeter is clutch and always has been. Consistently performs at the highest level.

On the topic of obnoxious Yankee fans, I have a good story.

My son and I were flying back to Charlotte from NEPA. We had flown up there for my sister's graduation. While standing in the security line, I couldn't help but notice the head of security staring at me. As I approached to hand him my ticket, he announced to everyone that he was going to have a little fun. I had my Boston Red Sox hat on and as it turns out, he was a Yankees fan. Right in fron of my 8 year old son, he tells me (jokingly) that I have to have a F-in body cavity search and that he's personally going to do it. I realized that he was kidding but asked why. He said it was because I had an F-in Red Sox hat on. Now I don't mind talking smack with the enemy but not with language lke that around children. I told him his language was unacceptable around my child but I guess I should expect it from a yankmee fan. :)

Dont generalize all Yankee fans acting like that idiot/assclown who did that to you..That guy sounds like an ahole regardless of who he roots for..and it's idiot's just like that guy..that gives Yankee fans a bad name..

I would have been furious had that happened to me..and would have given him a tongue lashing right back at him
