Silver lining: Maybe a full-on collapse will finally be enough to get Boone fired.

Doug K. said...

Fired? Someone in the press should throw a shoe at him.

AboveAverage said...

Hopefully cement galoshes

Carl J. Weitz said...

Didn't one of Boone Laden's journalists throw a shoe at Bush?

Doug K. said...

Carl - Yes. That's what I'm reffering to. :)

Doug K. said...

This team is an embarassment.

JM said...

Thanks for pointing me to the new thread, Doug. Not worth watching this shitshow any longer.

I’ve switched to The Bob Ross Channel (yes, that’s a real channel on DirecTV Stream). After watching the Martian play the outfield and Stroman pitch, I need to watch Bob make “happy little trees” and paint the sky “Phthalo Blue” to calm me down.

Doctor T said...

I want to root to win. But then I think of being stuck with the Intern and his gang of overprivileged idiots for another decade and the joy of victory dissipates quickly.

Fortunately, the Yankees never win when it matters.

Not that it really matters anyway. Win or lose Spreadsheet Hal will throw money and years at Cashman, Boone, et. al. So, winning doesn't really matter to the Yankees, does it?

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Embarrassment would be an upgrade at this point.

Turning on HGTV. It's more exciting.

NOTHING WILL BUDGE CASHMAN FROM HIS JOB. BOONE IS NOT FAR BEHIND. THEY COULD LOSE 5 IN A ROW AND KEEP THEIR JOBS. THAT'S WHY THIS IS THE TEAM OF THE CENTURY!!!!

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Bob Ross is very soothing.

The perm was a cost saving measure to not have to cut his hair too often.

I wish the Yankees had management that pragmatic.

AboveAverage said...

Thank you for posting the new thread, Doug. It may be time for another “meaningful” Judge home run

AboveAverage said...

Or not

AboveAverage said...

Baltimore is clearly now out of their slump

ranger_lp said...

Doesn’t look like a future Yankee Classic…

AboveAverage said...

Sure it does…..HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

AboveAverage said...

Uhm, pinch runner for Rizzo?

AboveAverage said...

J. U. D. G. E.

Hinkey Haines said...

This must have been the “Lipstick on a Pig” inning.

13bit said...

Bucket of snot

AboveAverage said...

Bitty - is that bucket branded?

TheWinWarblist said...

Wow. Heading up the Tokyo SkyTree. Checked the score. Wow. Spiralling in, ain't we?


Fuck Boone .

13bit said...

Red label snot - aged 20 years

BernBabyBern said...

Hey, guess what? Boone said after the slow start, Boonie said the team “competed well” and “had some good at-bats”!!!

Dust off the trophy shelf for No. 28, folks, we’re having “good at-bats”!!!! Woo-hoo!

I’d suggest a “good-at-bats” drinking game for Yankees press conferences, but my booze budget isn’t that large.

AboveAverage said...

Perfect! Thank you for sharing

AboveAverage said...

I’m guessing that the Tankees will try to trade Judge to the Expos for a player to be named later

Kevin said...

"Endeavor to persevere".

I'm on Tokyo time, 13 hours ahead of New York.

I will note that Keefe is well and truly one on us.

Keefe on Thursday:

"10. John Sterling will be a part of the postseason. The 86-year-old legend returned to the broadcast booth on Tuesday and it was like he never left. It’s almost as if the last five-plus months didn’t happen. As a Sterling fan, it was hard to not be able to listen to him anymore when he retired in April. While I’m elated he’s back for the remainder of the regular season and the postseason, overall, it’s just a tease, knowing we will have to say goodbye all again. Hopefully, the last out of the season and of his career he calls isn’t the same as the last out of the last 14 seasons he has had to call: with the Yankees’ season ending without a championship. The next Yankees win (or Orioles loss) will increase the Yankees’ odds at preventing a 15th straight disappointing final out call from Sterling. It would be enjoyable if that win came on Wednesday night to get it out of the way."



Fuck Boone.
