Ahhh yes, the anticipated whining has started. It's Grady's fault, blah blah. Just like blaming the Cubs' loss on the fan in the stands.
If you say that the Yankees didn't deserve it because Grady fucked up, then I say the Red Sox didn't deserve it because they got outplayed. The Yankees could have unloaded on Wakefield like they did on Wakefield. The Yankees could have unloaded on Wakefield like Boone did.

/Dawn's flame suit
OK....it's just a sport....a game....granted the players make more than all of us combined.....and they rub their proffets in our face each day as Nike commercials play on the major networks......but.....get over it...it's not the end of the world.
I didn't watch it..I could care less about the game....but all I heard at work last night was all the bitching and complaining about what happened........I had enough....so flame away....I have the suit on.....
But funny thing.....when the kids in little league play ball....they can last all the way thru the game.....and they don't seem to get super tired at the last inning like the adults do......

please......don't lie and TELL ME you didn't thin it was over when they went up 5-2. If you thought they were coming back, you should be a fucking fortune teller. Since we all know Baseball is a game of numbers, look at them .Timlin, williamson and embry all have not allowed a run in this post season. in the 8th, Pedro should NEVER have gone to the mound. The Bullpen which has been outstanding should have come in. plain and simple. The game was handed to you. And if you think it wasn't, consider how many hits were hit off of Pedro before the 2/3 of the 7th were up. 3 hits in 7 2/3 innings......The Sox were 5 defensive outs away in the 8th when all of the bullshit started, but yes, you expected them to win........ gimme a fucken break.
whining or not, I heard about 1/2 and 1/2 from yankees fans this morning on the radio and talking to people. The arrogant know it all Yakees fans think that the Sox fell right into the hands of the yankees, the smart Yankees fans know it was a gift......

i hear this same shit every year that the yankees play the sox in the playoffs and the yankees win. pedro was doing good against the yankees, he was pitching 90+ mph pitches. I think Grady wanted Pedro to work his way out of trouble, LIKE ALL TEAMS DO!!!! on that note, Yankees did it in game six, when Herdia walked one batter to load the bases, then Torre kept him in to work his way out of it and Heredia walked in the go-ahead run. MAYBE if Torre took Heredia out, they wouldnt of gone ahead.....So you could say that torre gave the sox game 6....(by keeping a ok pitcher in to walk in the leading run, then all hell broke loose) Yankees lost game 6 by a DUMB mistake by keeping Heredia in then bringing in White (two not so good relievers).
But everyone can go back and forth, back and forth alllll year about it, but what done is done.
