Home Run Derby

So tonite is the Home Run Derby and I sure we are going to see a lot of long balls hit. We also have both a Yankee and a Red Sox participating. Nick Swisher is going to represent the Yanks and Davide Ortiz is going to represent the Sox. I got $10 on Swisher out slugging Ortiz. Any takers? I do not even think Ortiz is going to make it out of the first round.

Looks like

you’re out at least 10 bucks.

Swisher sucks.

David Ortiz 2010: 120 RBIs, 35+ HRs. Jason who?

So who wants $10

I’ll admit I was wrong and David Ortiz made me look silly tonite. I just like to break balls especially when it comes to Red Sox fans n I took a lead of faith hoping Swisher would actually do better then Ortiz. But let me just say a few things:

1. If Robbie Cano was in the Home Run Derby, he would have definitely out slugged Ortiz.

2. I would rather have Swisher on my team over Ortiz anyway. Atleast Swisher isn’t an ousted steroid user.

3. I didn’t see kevin Youkolis at the Derby. Does anyone know if he is gonna be at the All Star Game tomorrow?

ah the grace of a Yankee fan

congrats, you’re the kind of person that makes us assume even the intelligent Yankee fans are morons before we get to know them.

Oh yeah?

1. There are four red pens in my drawer.

2. People named Joe make awesome sports announcers.

3. Kevin Youkolis doesn’t play baseball, he’s actually a factory worker in Sweden who made that ugly ass chair in your living room.

…since we’re making ridiculous statements.

This rivals 75bandwagon in terms of pointlessness and stupidity.

75

Actually made a solid post last week. This guy is 0-1. Don’t insult 75 like that.

Sorry,

but 75 has made many posts, not many were solid.

Did you read his last one? It was good. Didn’t blame Tito but instead recognized that the bullpen was forcing no-win decisions. I felt like we’ve been making progress with him.

But yeah, most of what he says isn’t very good.

BBD here though is a MFY fan and a troll. Different, douche-baggier, ball park.

I agree that this guy is a troll and I agree that 75's last post was good.

what is a tonite

Not sure what that is. Maybe a ton of ite maybe? I am assuming that he meant tonight. At this point I have to ask myself do I really care about someone’s opinion that cannot spell tonight? It’s not supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. It’s tonight, like baseball tonight, like the Redsoxs are going to win tonight.
Even Papi’s “bad” seasons are better then most of Swishers “good” seasons. I like people who like there teams and players that’s fine, but to say a good player is better then one of the best clutch hitters in the history of the game is a stretch. I.E. Marco Scuttero is a better SS then Derek Jeter. I may believe that Marco is the better player, but to state it and claim that Jeter is done or could never be good any more is ridiculous.
P.S. dose a person who lives in the house that “roids built” really want to start talking about people who took PED’s

Ok everyone, take it easy!

First off, Sorry if i offended anyone, i was just joking around. Its not like i said Ted Williams was the worst player to ever live or that i wanted to come up to Bahston and pee on Fenway Pahk, even thou the thought has crossed my mind (sorry let me say though not thou for 18-1 damn)

Second, dont make fun of the “House that George Built”. Not today. You all wish George Steinbrenner, the Boss, the greatest owner in the history of sports, owned the Red Sox.

Lastly, i just wanna know how it feels to have the 3rd best team in baseball and know your not going to make the playoffs.

You post a trolling/brag post and get straight up shown up.

You have to expect some backlash. And an even more trollish insulting response isn’t going to help. This is the worst example of cross-blog interaction possible. There have been some friendly PSA guys who have come over here and contributed. You are not one of them.

“Not today”. How dramatic.
