How delusions can the Yankees get? I'm not making this up: this is actually on the team's homepage: "Cast your vote to make Sabathia Man of the Year! Vote to make CC Sabathia one of the six finalists for the Marvin Miller Man of the Year Award, honoring on- and off-field contributions!"

I mean delusional, of course - I was distracted by Toronto's 2nd inning 3-run home run.

Ivan Nova, greater than or equal to Carl Pavano in level of effectiveness? Who cares, he's total shit.

I can't do it anymore. Fuck this team. Fuck Joe, Fuck Nova, Fuck the bullpen, Fuck Nova, Fuck Pineda, Fuck CC, Fuck Nova, and Fuck everyone involved in this shit organization except John and Suzyn.

If what the Yankees did to the Red Sox in '78 was the Boston Massacre, what's this -- the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire?

Brett Gardner is the only man out there worthy of pinstripes.

Pretty awful all around. We picked up Ackley why? He's a waste of bench space. Fuck 'em all!

Anyone who thinks the Yanks are still a lock for that one game play-in is living in Fantasyland. This is a full-blown Metsian implosion. If we get to 85 wins this year it'll be a miracle -- and it won't be enough for even the stupidest everyone-gets-a-trophy, brainchild-of-Bud Selig postseason scenario.

We can at least take solace in the fact that this team did far better than any rational human would have dared dream for the first five months of the season. They've only lived down to our expectations for, what, two weeks?

Wait till... oh, maybe 2019 or so!
