New York Sucks! New York Sucks! Let's Go Phillies! No wait...L.A. Dodgers!

 

[Tangs Rule]

Ticket to todays game - $150 each

Hot dogs, souvenirs, etc... - $250

Watching your team lose its final game ever in its stadium, costing them a shot at the playoffs..................PRICELESS

 

[georgelc86]

The Knicks, Yanks, Mets, Rangers, Islanders... do we see how the higher the salary the lower the wins. NY sucks. And frankly our local media and our fans have a hand in creating these type of teams. The high expectations and our local media thinking that they are experts, when none of them have played a sport in their lives, dictating to GM's and presidents how the teams should be run. I am done. Blow all the teams up. Put kids that want to play their heart and souls out. Leave everything on the field/ice. Put people out there that want to make their home fans proud. Proud not because they make more than the entire upper seating but proud to put that uniform on. Proud to just be there and play the game. Take all the money saved and give half of it back to the fans take the other half give it to charity. I am soooo done with NY sports.

that was real freakin sad. personally i would rather be knocked out then blow the lead again. but thats just me. but hey at least it isnt as bad as last years debacle

:tongueani

Mets choke again.

 

[TimberTDI]

Mets choke again.

So we choked two years straight. The yankees have been choking every year consistently since 2001.

The yankees have been choking every year consistently since 2001.

He's right!! :sad2: Yankee fans have to look back to 2000 for fond memories. I wonder how long it's been for the Shea faithful :scratch:

 

[georgelc86]

86

 

[Tangs Rule]

Just because you lose in the playoffs doesn't mean you choke. Holding a few games lead and then consistently losing and NOT making the playoffs is choking.

The only year the Yankees choked was 2004, when they held a 3 - 0 lead over the Red Sox and lose the next 4 games.

If Wagner would of been healthy,this would not have happened.But would of..could of..No difference now.I think it's Angels-Brewers in the finals.

 

[georgelc86]

With the Mopes and the Jokees out, who is your favorite team now?

 

[Deanos]

If Wagner would of been healthy,this would not have happened.

What difference would he have made? Wasn't Wagner healthy last year with a bigger lead over the Phillies and it still happened?

 

[Tangs Rule]

Yes, Wagner was healthy last year. \He wasn't perfect this year, he blew 7 our of 34 save opportunities. He had good numbers otherwise.

I'm hoping for a Rays / Dodgers world series. May sound boring, but I want to see Mattingly get his ring no matter what team it's with.

I think we'll see Angels / Cubs.

 

[nycmat]

yanks didnt choke other then 04. other then that i am real proud of the way they did over the years. but i understand the hate when it was the yankees who last won anything at shea before it closed.

 

[TimberTDI]

there's no hate. if the yanks were in I would be rooting for them.
