Some Great, Some Good, Some Not So Good
AFOMG - Kudos to my main role dog. You guys have no idea what you got every Wednesday and Friday when the big fella comes to the blogosphere. Not to mention every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday when he attempts to turn my gibberish into English (cheers pal).
He may be the brightest man in blogs and he is certainly the smartest kid I know. So let me use these few lines which our thousands of readers will read because it is so close to the top, to congratulate the big fella on the new job.
Whats awesome is that we here at Yankees2000.com believe in the idea of community. As of 6/1/2007 we will be pooling all of our salaries together and then divying up the money between the three of us. Solid news for Sip. My bank account may go up by about 1000000%.
STILL GREAT
Oliver Perez. Is this guy for real? With each big start we love this guy a little bit more. Last week he did it against the Yankees, this week he does it against the Braves.
Not only has he looked solid all season (sans 7 walk game against the Phils in early April) but he has proven really without exception to be huge in big-game starts. You can argue that the losing Pedro, El Duque and tiring of Steve Trachsel in the 2006 playoffs may have saved our 2007 rotation. It solidified the confidence of John Maine and Oliver Perez who, near the end of May, both should be all stars.
A LITTLE GREATER THAN THE LAST ONE
The NBA Lottery.
Of course I was rooting for the Bulls to get a top 2 pick so that the misery that is Isiah Thomas would get more press. But I'll settle for the Celtics picking 5th.
Could not be happier that the Sports Guy is whining his way all the way back to LA and that the Celtics won't touch Oden or Durant and instead find room for Al Horford, Joakim Noah or Julian Wright.
You people in Boston have the Pats and Red Sox. Stop complaining.
STILL GOOD
Roger Clemens had a shaky outing on Wednesday in his second minor league tune up.
102 pitches of bleh against my beloved Portland Seadogs, the home of the Portland Rumble and neighbor of the Yarmouth Clam Festival (I spent a lot of my youthful summers in Maine).
LESS GOOD
A big series victory for the New Yanks. They got a huge win against Curt Schilling on Wednesday night. They've won 3 of 4 and have done it with a ton of solid pitching. This is not the Yankee team we saw for the first 6 weeks of the season.
That my friends, is salt.
I said it on Monday. That Jose Reyes flyout to left field may have saved the Yankees' season.
THE BAD
I am pretty damn bored in Arizona. First person to come visit gets all the Powerades I have left in my kitchen cabinet.
VCD,
Sip

you see those jerks in the bronx are at it again with their self-righteous philanthropy? the nerve, donating $1 million to the virginia tech memorial fund. its obvious that this is just a ploy to make other teams look bad and feel inferior. if those phonies really cared they would have donated less so as not to embitter fans of teams that don't give as much. right, sip?
The Philies are 6.5 games out of first and ESPN said they are finished for the season. The Yankees are 9.5 games out of first and every keeps saying, "It's early, they could still win the division." Pathetic. I'm sick of this.
