Look at the picture, America. Don't turn away, dammit. You scream about injustice in the NFL, but where were you when the Yankees were thrown overboard? Yeah, look at the picture! It's not going away. No justice, no peace. NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE! DEATH TO THE OLIGARCHY!


Faced with the disgrace of one blown game, the NFL was shamed into doing the right thing.

But where was Barack Obama on this night? Where's the Paul Ryan outrage about this game?

That's the last out of the Yankees' one-run loss to Baltimore - with the tying run crossing the plate! That's the season, folks.

THAT. IS. THE. SEASON.

DON'T YOU DARE TURN AWAY. DON'T SHIELD YOUR PANSY EYES, AMERICA!  LOOK AT THE TRUTH. DOES IT HURT?  IT SHOULD. NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE. NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE. DEATH TO THE MACHINE! 

We will not forget.

It's no accident that the sheeple are worked up about irrelevant opiate circuses like football when the very baseball season is on the line RON PAUL 2012 IT'S STILL POSSIBLE

We can't cry about this. We'd sound like a bunch of whiny Baltimore Orioles/Ravens fans. We just need to keep doing the Yankee tradition, winning games. We've probably seen the last of Ivan Nova for 2012 tonight. What the Yankees need is for Hiroki Kuroda to be the Hiroki Kuroda that was the ace a few weeks ago. They need CC to be like the CC of the past two games. For Andy to be the spark plug that he's been all season. And for Phil Hughes to be the lights out Phil Hughes. I believe in these four and I believe the hitting (minus A-Rod) will come together in this crucial stretch to take the 2012 season to next month.

Joe Torre was right to bat him 7th said...

@Manx: Love the optimism and the plan for the four-man rotation (David Phelps could take a start if need be; still a major upgrade over Nova.) But you lost me on the hitting part since we will continue to be perpetual rally killers with Grandy and especially A-Rod, useless ol'A-Rod, hacking away in the middle of the order. I mean these guys are looking more and more like time has passed them by, especially A-Rod. Sorry to be a downer, but this guy needs some PEDs.
