Why We Fight

Update from Mustang: Most of the links in this post don't work anymore. You must take their claims at face value.

This is an El Duque post from 2019:

Tonight, we once again battle the big-spending, hate-filled, deep-state Redsocks - a franchise steeped in racism and violence, which for decades preferred to blame its defeats on a supernatural, anti-God, anti-America "curse," rather than its own failed policies.

These are horrible, wretched, human beings, the absolute worst, whose treasonous attempts to hurt the Yankees are an attack upon America. These monsters in human form should be investigated by MLB and made examples of, by spending the rest of their lives in prison, where they can't do any more damage. They are enemies of the people, and the mere wearing of their illegal "B" caps in public represents a breakdown of basic morality and an affront to our democracy.

Did I mention that they are liars, and anything they say - such as denying the above words - proves everything I'm saying is right! Trouble is, the Boston-leaning announcers on YES never give the Yankees a break. Did you know that the traitorous David Cone, at the end of his career, sold out and pitched for Boston? 

Tonight, as we take up arms against this red tide of human scum, we must show them that we have not forgotten their evil history.


Red Sox complicity in U.S. torture flights

They fed their own fans prison food

They're bigger racists than Joe Torre ever was

Their groundskeepers are thugs


Varitek clawed A-Rod's face, kept his own mask on

Schilling poured ketchup on his sock, called it blood

They decapitate their players when they're done with them


Big Papi had it in for Joba for no reason

They tried to freeze out John and Suzyn.

They can't lose a game without whining about something.


Damn them. Demand that the pro-Redsock YES announcers give the Yankees a fair break! Tonight, we fight.

  1. Brilliantly said!

    To paraphrase Horatio Nelson and Isoroku Yamamoto (well-known Yankees fans, both):

    The Bronx expects every man to do his duty!

  2. WILD CARD PROBABILITIES, AS OF THIS MORNING


    FANGRAPHS BASEBALL-REFERENCE
    RED SOX 97% 94.4%
    BLUE JAYS 40.5 55.0
    YANKEES 56.4 41.9
    MARINERS 5.3 8.1

    (Formatting got screwed up, but I think the chart is still decipherable.)

    Notice that Baseball-Reference gives the Blue Jays a better chance than the Yankees despite their being a game behind the Yanks. I think that B-R is probably incorporating the following: the Yankees are 6-10 so far against Toronto and Boston; the Yankees are 1-6 in Fenway this season and 2-4 at the Toronto home park; and 7-9 against TB (all their upcoming opponents). If past is prologue, then the Yankees are fucked.


    ALSO--The Red Sox' last six games are against Washington and Baltimore; of Toronto's last nine games, six are against Minnesota and Baltimore; whereas the Yankees' last nine games are against Boston, Toronto, and Tampa Bay. Draw your own conclusions.

  3. We're doomed. Might as well start drinking.

  4. Torres is hitting over .300 the last month and a half. Hard to believe. He's noticably better lately.

  5. and that's why Like doesn't start.

  8. Are the Yankees playing Chico’s Bail Bonds?

    This is the first time I’ve seen these nasty ugly jerseys. The gods will have their revenge.

    ReplyDelete

  9. Some of those runs belong to Montgomery

    ReplyDelete
  10. How did this happen?? DickA, I think all those runs belong to Monty.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Rizzo failing to pad the lead there will cost us the game.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I know I shouldn’t be, but I’m fantasizing about a Boston Massacre

    ReplyDelete
  13. DiiiiiiiiiccckkkAlllllleeeeennnnnnnnnnn you get that blaspheming out of your mind RIGHT NOW!!!

    ReplyDelete
  14. Can't we go with a fat Bostonite? How about Big Papi?

    ReplyDelete
  15. Plenty of innings left for the bullpen to still blow this.

    ReplyDelete
  16. They're set up. If they don't tee off this fuckin' inning, we lose.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Gleyber making it a challenge for the bullpen. More heroic losing the hard way.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Gay bar?? Where?? I need a new hangout!

    ReplyDelete
  19. I'm trying to remmember. Is that color combination Krusty the Klown, or SpongeBob SquarePants.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Nothing wrong with gay bars, as long as I'm not required to be practicing.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Chico's bail bonds never came to my aid.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Wasn't there a NHL team that had those ridiculous colors?

    ReplyDelete
  23. Brazilian World Cup Team!

    Lost by a touchdown to the Germans!

    At home!

    ReplyDelete
  24. Oh good. Chad is warming up. Because my reflux needs to be worse.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Does the infield defense just feel a little too crisp and tidy, or is it me?

    ReplyDelete
  26. 5 run lead with two down in the 8th and it feels like a nail biter.

    ReplyDelete
  27. And if Glay Bar was in a gay bar, he NEVER would have slid off the bag!

    ReplyDelete
  28. AB,

    ...as modeled by Jerry Remy and Dustin Pedroia.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Remember that five-run lead we took into the bottom of ninth at Houston not that many months ago?

    ReplyDelete
  30. FlopSweat is getting warm in case Chad gets in trouble. Because that'll work out swell.

    ReplyDelete
  31. To quote Johnny Lasagna: "It all happened so fast ..."

    ReplyDelete
  32. Pocono Steve, please man. Don't jinx the Yankees. It doesn't take much

    ReplyDelete
  33. The red sux are the reason to keep the Yankee's no facial hair policy.

    They are some butt fucking ugly beards, on even uglier faces.

    ReplyDelete
  34. The missus even hates ravech's horrible toupee.

    ReplyDelete
  35. My wife hit on the shade of yellow. Rubber ducky.

    ReplyDelete
  36. I'm not jinxing them, Platoni. I'm "bringing the neg," and I want them to win just as much as you do even though, "structurally," it would probably better if they would just lose out the season so that needed changes might actually be made. We're in a very weird place right now.

    ReplyDelete
  37. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mh85R-S-dh8

    ReplyDelete
  38. Pocono, you may be a smooth operator. My butt-crack just became all sweaty and moist.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I'm with you, Steve. Rooting for the win while wishing for loss. Or is that rooting for loss and wishing for the win? It's very confusing

    ReplyDelete
  40. We should all be ashamed of wasting our emotions all season on this destined to fail miserable bunch.

    Unless, of course, if they win again tomorrow.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Back at you, Winnie! And Platoni, "rooting for the win while wishing for the loss" comes with Knicks and Giants fandom, too. It creates an odd, fluttery feeling in the stomach resolved only with alcohol.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Once again, I have to point out how streaky these guys are. It's unlikely, but...

    ReplyDelete
  43. Don’t look now, but the Mariners are slowly creeping up.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Why bring Chad Greene in with a five run lead? Shoulder inflammation starting to settle down?

    ReplyDelete

  45. I know if we make the playoffs it will vindicate miser Hal and Boone's mismanagement
    Part of me wants to see us fail long term I think it would be better

    But then once the game starts and I see
    and hear the bawheid unshaven neanderthal toothless Boston fans (and the men are worse) I want to win very badly

    ReplyDelete
  46. Scottish Yankee fan,

    The men are much worse. Which is like saying that smell is worse than month old fish in pig shit. With manure and rat feces sauce.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Hilarious, Scotland! And I hope they keep playing in those awful yellow uniforms.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Also, the 'Cuse win on a last-second field goal. The question is just what Duque was doing to bring the karma tonight.

    ReplyDelete
  49. And finally, can we just say again, how much we love the Twins?
