TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe

Rain delay in Baltimore.

Me too, but I haven't "channelled" it in quite a while. I've gotten used to using the alarm in my cell instead.

I'm a little miffed that Hidden in Plain View isn't playing my dates.

HHH: January 1999/January 2000. From being lost in the midcard with a fading DX gimmick, to the rise to the top of the company which he has yet to back down from.

Steinbrenner has called a "big meeting" for today with the Tampa brass, and I've heard Gene Michael will be there as well.

I heard Pavano balked for the Yankees as well? Didn't see the game till about the 6th when I got home from work.

As long as they keep Robinson Cano, I'll deal with whatever crazy shit they do between now and July 31.

He basically bitched about playing time until they shipped him out, since he assumed he would be starting over Bernie everyday.

He was pretty much a bench player/pinch runner type, had they kept him around for his 2 year contract, he would have fit in rather nicely this season. The reliever the Yanks got in return has been down with an injury since like April.

Either August 12 in Camden or August 14 in Englishtown, I'll be there.

Just look at how well Lofton has done for Philly. Could've solved the OF problem right there.

As far as I know, it was a 3-year/$30 something mil contract signed for the 2004 season.

Sheffield finished second to Guerrero in MVP voting last year. He is currently on year 2 of a 3 year deal, I don't see a team taking him without the Yanks paying a considerable ammount of what is left on the deal.

I believe they already have. Except he isn't playing as much as he should be.

As far as I remember, Rock and Mankind from the Valentines PPV in 1999 was a fun brawl with a wierd finish

The guy sitting next to me at the Yankee game today had that exact phone, and I wasn't quite sure what it was, since at one point he snapped a picture with it, and the next minute he was talking on it.

Samsung V1660 Sprint PCS Vision Phone Internet/Text Messaging/MP3 Ringtones/Voice enabled, neat stuff like that included. Swank phone I've had for a little bit more than a year. Service is usually outstanding, except out at school I have to really fight to just get one bar.

Good stuff

I don't think that Denny Neagle was very good for the Yankees in 2000 either, and David Cone had his worst season of his career at 4-14.

Jose Canseco, 2000 Yankees.

I didn't catch the game other than the score, so I assumed the kid got knocked around like he did earlier this year. Francesca today was saying that he seemed to pitch scared, nervous, and like he was trying to avoid having an outing like his previous one. Apparently he's more of a AAAA pitcher?

And I'm stuck with Sean Henn pitching the game on Saturday. Not like I'm going to even be able to make out who he is from where I'm sitting, but once he starts getting knocked around I think I can figure it out.

I just couldn't put these in any order, I started to and just couldn't, although the '96 World Series is my number 1. When I was announced playing in my first high school football game, it made me feel a sense of pride that all of my hardwork had finally paid off and I was getting to do what I had been preparing to do for six or seven months. I recorded a sack and a forced fumble in the game. In the spring of 1998, I hit my first home run out of our field and way over the fence to straightaway center. I never imagined being able to do this. Next at-bat, I was walked, the next two I had an RBI single and another shot to center which was caught. Next game I hit cleanup, for the rest of the season I hit no lower than 5th, contributed a couple of big RBIs in the playoffs, and was picked to play on my first and only summer all star team. 2001 Division Series, Game 3. Yanks are down 2 games to none, clinging to a 1-0 lead in the 7th. Long shot hit to the rightfield corner, and Jeremy Giambi attempts to score from first. Shane Spencer's throw goes right over cut off men Alfonso Soriano and Tino Martinez, but out of nowhere comes Derek Jeter, halfway up the first base line, grabs the ball, and backhands it just barely in time to Posada to nail Giambi at the plate. Yanks win the game, 1-0, and comeback to win the series 3-2. The 2000 World Series had friends going at it as the Mets and Yankees squared off. The first game was best, where the Yanks won in extra innings in a game the Mets should have had but made a few idiot mistakes on the base paths. Game 2 was the famous Clemens and Piazza bat scandal, stemming from when Clemens nailed Piazza in the head that summer, and the game 5 late inning come back off Al Lieter, who pitched deep into the game and threw in the neighborhood of 130 pitches. The series capped off by a potential tying HR by Piazza settling into Bernie Williams' glove in center for the Yanks' 3rd straight and most recent championship. 2001 World Series, game 4 and 5. Emotional rollercoaster of a series, just adding to everything going on at that time in New York. I'd call it the most emotional a recent Yankee series has been. The Tino/Jeter homeruns of game 4, and the Brosius one in 5, all off of Byung Yung Kim. Also, Pres Bush throwing out the first pitch in game 3 I think it was, and the fans' warm goodbye to Paul O'Niell in the latter innings with a stadium shaking "Paulie" chant. The Giants/Eagles week 17 game in 2002. Giants needed the win to make the playoffs, or else they would have to depend on the outcomes of a few other games. AJ Feely was undefeated as a starting QB for Philly. The Eagles score on a trick play their first drive, and it is 7-0 until late in the fourth quarter when Jeremy Shockey makes a highlight reel catch for a TD against Dawkins in the endzone. Big Blue wins in OT 10-7 on a fieldgoal. The Giants marching onto the field in Tampa for Super Bowl XXXV. The first game I went to, in 1993. The Yanks go down 8-0 in the second inning against the then-California Angels, and scrap and claw back to win the game 9-8 in a thriller. Aaron Boone's shot of Tim Wakefield in Game 7, 2003 ALCS. "This one will send the Yankees to the World Series!" Probably the greatest game I've ever seen. Game 1 of the 1998 World Series, one of my favorite calls by Michael Kay "A grand slam for Tino Martinez! Seven runs in the seventh innning of the first game of the best of seven World Series! Oh my what a home run!" The 1996 World Series "Hayes waits [To catch foul pop]...."THE YANKEES ARE CHAMPIONS OF BASEBALL!" and ensuing celebration (Pile on the mound, victory lap, Boggs on police horse) Jim Leyritz's 3 run game tying home run in the 96WS Game 4. Yankees are down 6-0 early, claw back to 6-3, Jimmy ties it in the 8th, Yanks win in 10. Andy Pettitte's 1-0 performance in the last game at Fulton County Stadium, O'Niell's game ending clutch catch in right-center. Oops. 11.

Going to the Yankee/Met game on Saturday
