Look! It's a writer who aspires to be as stupid and annoying
(and anti-Yankees) as Mike Lupica!

While we’re waiting for Lupica to dislodge his foot from his mouth after Arod told Boras to take a hike, we found a new asshole to bust on.
Here’s an article by Tim Brown, a brainiac from Yahoo! Sports…
Yankees' horror show looking like a sequel
A lot of fans considered the Yankees’ 2007 season to be one of the most exciting.
Glad to know you thought it was a horror show.
The horror show was actually playing at a different baseball stadium not too far away.
On the occasion of Alex Rodriguez's third American League MVP award and with his contract negotiations by now presumably in the seventh-inning stretch, this is a good time to consider what it is A-Rod so desperately desired to come back to.
How about the best chance at getting to the playoffs all ten years of his new contract?
The New York Yankees have lost 13 of their last 17 playoff games and basically dismissed their iconic manager because of it,
They didn’t “dismiss” Torre, you numbnuts, Torre turned down their more than generous offer.
and they just spent nearly $400 million to put the same product back on the field, only with potentially less pitching.
“Potentially less” pitching?
I don’t see Pavano or Igawa anywhere near Yankee Stadium, do you?
I see Joba, Kennedy and Hughes…I didn’t see them in the beginning of 2007.
By the way…
…anyone with half a brain knows that “potentially less” is the same thing as saying “potentially more”. It can go either way.
You just chose to put a negative spin on it to suit your less than stellar article.
Oh, and you also hate the Yankees. Which makes you a biased dick.
So, for the seventh consecutive winter the Yankees are working their way back from something less than a parade.
Along with about twenty five other teams.
Where’s your article about the Mets, yet again doing NOTHING with the NL’s highest payroll, for the 5th consecutive year?
Yes, the champion – again – is in Boston.
Again?
And here I thought the Cardinals won the year before.
Silly me.
The manager is in L.A.
Newsflash, asshole – Joe Torre, the guy who brought NO titles to the Yankees in the last seven years, IS NOT THE MANAGER OF THE YANKEES.
I love it. The Yankees don’t win the series for seven years and it everyone's fault except Joe Torre's, just because he decided to leave.
The ace of the staff – in standing if not numbers – is in Houston.
Roger Clemens is, too.
If they brought Clemens back, you would have thought it was a GOOD idea?
Jeez you are a dumb confused bitch.
They haven't been among the top five earned-run average staffs for four years, and in those four consecutive playoff series losses have had an ERA under 5 once. Their ERA against the Cleveland Indians this October was nearly 6.
Wait a minute! Are you trying to say there is a direct correlation between playoff series losses and poor pitching?!?!
NO WAY.
So THAT’S how you got a job writing about sports!
Hughes had a 2.73 ERA in September (beware the September numbers)
What the fuck does that even mean?
Chamberlain was sensational when not shellacked in insects.
True
Kennedy was great in three September starts, against Tampa Bay, Kansas City and Toronto.
Great! This all suggests that we’ll be better off than we were in the beginning of 2007, where our starting pitchers in the first month were:
Pavano
Pettitte
Mussina
Igawa
Rasner
Pavano
Wright
Karstens
Wang
Hughes
(Arod) being there will help.
Arod will "help"?
Ya think, genius?
The Yankees had better hope he brings his bat, though.
What…the…fuck…
Tim Brown, you are a stupid asshole.
