Oh darn...Now we only get to see 161 yankee games on ESPN family of networks.


I'm so sick of the Yankees, Mets, Cubs, Red Sox, etc.. all over TV. Show some damn regional games so I can watch a game I give a damn about.

No paintings of stadiums can compare to stadium paintings by Thomas Kinkaid's Yankee Stadium and Fenway paintings. Utterly amazing to see them in gallery lighting.

That was opening day he did. He took a photo and painted it from that. The seats were pretty much full that day.

Tampa is nowhere near the team they were last season. And Baltimore has their days.

Tampa got off to a slow start.... and if your going to suggest there not good then you need to suggest the same of New York considering Tampa has more wins at this point including gong 3-2 against the Yanks

Did I ever say New York was having a better season than Tampa?

And I said Tampa isn't the same team as last season, never anything about them not being any good.

In your expert opinion, what are the additions and subtractions that made the Rays such a weaker team this year?!?!?

They have started off slow, but last year's team is, more or less, intact.

All I'm saying is there's about a 10% chance they make it back to the WS. Period.

We'll see. The Yankees always have the best record after the A-S break, with the exception of last season. So I don't know why people continue asking me and Yankee fans in general if we're worried about the entire season at this point.
