 Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi

For whom? 
A-Rod for Aramis Ramirez...A-Rod and cash for Miguel Cabrera...A-Rod and Melky Cabreara for Bobby Abreu and Tom Gordon and David Bell. Nah, that last one's silly. But would you trade him? A team-leading 18 errors, including four over the last two nights, make one think about it. What would you do?

I notice you didn't answer my question. The one about potentially trading A-Rod. The one that has been getting a lot of ink in the NY newspapers. Is that because you have no opinion, or because the idea of losing your Yankee spankee material is too much for you to bear?

I don't hate the guy like you do....but I also don't care either way. As long as they continue to win games I'm happy. And considering all the adversity they have had this year they are doing a fine job.

I don't hate the guy as might as you might like to convince yourself. But when the rumors are swirling as much as they have been, and his defense is as down as it's been to the point where it's costing games and forcing the team's ace to comment on it, I think it's a relevant question to ask.

Wow, one Yankee fan gives a half-assed answer. The other one avoids the question entirely. Good to know you're so passionate about your team.

Just asking the experts a serious question and watching as it gets ignored because I dared to question the golden God known as A-Rod. But whatever. Here's a safer question on the subject: how do you feel about him getting booed? And one more safe question: do you think the Yankees will make a deadline deal?
(Jeez, you'd think I called him Slappy or derided Jeter...)

Yes, cause you always coach your Yankees related questions "seriously" - whether they'r about A. Rod or not - how could we possibly think that you weren't just playing around... 
Is your "safer" question serious too?

They're all serious, pookie. Believe it or not, I like to hear the opinions of other teams' fans around trade deadline time. Even yours. (Insert  there). This is the first time I've heard multiple news sources discussing the possibility of the Yankees trading A-Rod. I think they could make a deal to boost their farm system, but I know they'd probably go strictly with a "win now, dammit" trade philosophy.

You called me "pookie"! In the Yankees thread! 
Ok, fine, I'm loathe to think about it, and I really hope they don't trade him, but I can't rule out the possibility of it - though I mean possibility, not probability...and if they do, then yeah, they'll do it with the "win now" mentality you mentioned...

I'm not criticizing his offensive numbers. They're, at absolute worst, respectable and, realistically, quite good. And I have no need or desire to discuss "clutch hitting" and all that garbage. as I've stated, his 18 errors so far this year stand out because they've been an aberration - his defense has been good since coming to the Yankees and playing third base. I guess my point is that his solid offense and prowess at shortstop make him attractive to try and acquire, even as his defensive woes and supposed "lack of clutch hitting" make his potentially desireable to trade.
No need to be jealous, Rober'. I'd flirt with you, if NWM weren't the jealous type - he sure is territorial when it comes to his Robbie!

Regarding NY papers, agreed. All newspapers do it to their city's team(s). Newbie Yankees fans? Sorry, Donnie, but I have no frame of reference. But you'd be surprised how little ink in Boston is dedicated to Yankee woes and A-Rod. We've got better things to bitch and worry about - starting pitching, getting Seanez and Tavarez out of Red Sox uniforms, hot and cold offense, etc. I've noticed the most discussion regarding your team on ESPN and Fox - media outlets that normally have what would be called a "New York bias".
As for your comment about "five-year droughts", I'll choose to ignore it. That's your hang-up, not mine.

I don't think anyone's gonna pick up Abreu. Maybe Detroit, but I doubt it. And I don't see any major trades/acquisitions in the AL East. I can see the Mets making a blockbuster, and Atlanta making a big move, but not anyone in our division...

his 450 hrs and 2,000 hits, as well as the prospect of another decade of solid play, are probably what most find intriguing.

fans that bought their first yankee hats or shirts in november of 1996 -- and were older than 16 at the time (gotta give benefit of the doubt to the young'uns)
they are a group not only used to winning, but wait in expectation of it. its a nausiating type, with direct correlation to the lower tier seats going from $12 to $100 in 6 years and from $100 to not-even-available-on-open-market 5 years later.
its the type that boo mariano on the day he gives up the save, rather than cheer the 50 days he completed them. or the sort that note "arod struck out today? trade him!"
the NY sports press is their bible.
and certainly, yes, this is a big city thing, and one that has existed forever with the yankees. steinbrenners reign of terror during the 70s and 80s really made the knee-jerk reaction famous.
but in the past few years, its gotten so much horribly worse than its ever been before. hearing bar crowds bitch and moan that posada's sacrefice fly wasn't a homer, for example. its just silly now.

nice try, boyo
you've mentioned it quite a few times within these humble forums in the mighty hate/love yankee battles.
personally, i think its just more of the same n00b yank fans-fare mentioned above.
but again, i think we'll manage.

i am curious as to when the mets will drop their 25 game lead and lose the NL east. i'm thinking early september.

I think it's less about what he's done, and more about what he will do. 450 home runs are nice, unless a player completely falls apart and can only manage 10 per year for however long he sticks around. In A-Rod's case, barring injury, he's a mortal lock for 500 and well more than 50% for 600. The fact that he can play SS and 3B also make him attractive.
Which is a long way just to say "I concur".

fans that bought their first yankee hats or shirts in november of 1996 -- and were older than 16 at the time (gotta give benefit of the doubt to the young'uns)
they are a group not only used to winning, but wait in expectation of it. its a nausiating type, with direct correlation to the lower tier seats going from $12 to $100 in 6 years and from $100 to not-even-available-on-open-market 5 years later.
its the type that boo mariano on the day he gives up the save, rather than cheer the 50 days he completed them. or the sort that note "arod struck out today? trade him!"
the NY sports press is their bible.
and certainly, yes, this is a big city thing, and one that has existed forever with the yankees. steinbrenners reign of terror during the 70s and 80s really made the knee-jerk reaction famous.
but in the past few years, its gotten so much horribly worse than its ever been before. hearing bar crowds bitch and moan that posada's sacrefice fly wasn't a homer, for example. its just silly now.
Wasn't really looking for a definition. Just saying I don't know enough about newbie Yankee fans to make a comment. But I know what you mean - out here, we have a buncha jackasses running around with "Red Sox Nation" cards. Basically, they paid $10 to join a fan club and think that somehow puts them on equal footing with us die-hards. But if you aske them where they were in 2003 during Game 7 of the ALCS, or for Game 6 of the 1986 WS, or what their first game was, damned if they know or remember. It's nice to get your $10 card, your $100 jersey, and your $25 cap. But it doesn't make you a fan.
N00bs suck.

i am curious as to when the mets will drop their 25 game lead and lose the NL east. i'm thinking early september.

S'funny cuz it's true. I think Atlanta's gonna shock a lot of people. Don't think they'll go deep in the playoffs, but I think they have a shot at AL East consecutive title #15.

aye. figure he'll just turn 31 this week. in this new era of 40+ sluggers, that gives him another ten (or more) seasons to put up big numbers, all barring some form of griffy-esque explosion.
even if he faces a "major" slump, and is reduced to 25 homers a year from 2007 on. thats still 200-300 more, leading to a 700+ total. thus, its likely that whatever barry does will be meaningless in a decade.
and i still wont like either of them!

if the braves take the AL east, i'll be more than shocked! 
still, i really don't understand how the NL east is as terrible as they are. marlins, braves, phillies, nationals... none of these teams are even close to .500 right now. last year at this time, the entire division was over 500, the braves and washington 10+ up.
what the fuck happened to them?

the rest? "meh"
Maybe "meh" to you- fine - but I hate seeing that Yanks lose.

so, ok, he had a bad week or month or game or series or whatever. what, is he only batting 280? are his 21 home runs embarassing? 100 hits thus far useless?
Did I say anything close to that? 
No.

he's "cold" now. that'll change. specially if you keep flirting with him!
Babe, I would flirt with A-Rod anytime! 
Oh.
Wait.

ny papers hype trade and "failure" outta this because thats what ny papers do. and, the only ones that really seem to make big deals out of this are newbie yankee fans and long-time red sox fans. .. don't worry, we'll manage.[/
true enough.

you also both enjoy bemoaning home the 5 year "drought" the yanks have been in without a ring.
Who "both"? I don't know if you're directing your sarcasm at me, Joe or Pete there.
