It’s Always Cloudy in New York

by Ryan
Not a good night for the city that never sleeps. Sure the Yankees lost, but so did the Rangers, Islanders, Devils, Knicks, and even the Nets. Jesus, if the WNBA mattered I bet the Liberty would have lost, too. The only team that won was the Islanders, and they barely count. That’s like saying Kansas [...]

The Metrodome Says Goodbye…

Probably not the salute they had in mind.

In Case You Hate UB Football…

by Ryan
… here are some interesting links to read this afternoon.
- If you haven’t noticed, Chris will be covering the Bulls for WNYMedia.net this year. Look for a live blog up shortly and game review later on, as well as a few other fun things every Saturday.
- If you love the Beatles OR Chuck Klosterman (or both), [...]

荒廃 (Torn)

by Ryan

Who knew a Roost baseball post could become so relevant so fast.
Friday night’s Yankees/Red Sox game is now the runaway favorite for MLB Game of the Year, despite the fact that my team was on the other side of the score. If there’s one thing I disagree with most when it comes to “Yankee Classics” it’s [...]

A Trip to the House Ruth Didn’t Build

By Chris

Tonight I leave for a pair of games in the Bronx. It’ll be my first trip to the new Yankee Stadium and my first time in New York for Independence Day. That’s the good news (along with the fact I’ll see Roy Halladay pitch live for the first time).
The bad? Chien-Ming Wang gets the start tomorrow. [...]

Looks like trouble all day for Joba.

Bronx Bombed

Bronx Bombed

by Ryan
It would be a shame if we ignored the events in the Bronx from yesterday. In a word, it was wonderful.

I find it exciting and oddly amusing that we will see lacrosse scores at Yankee Stadium. Also, Chen Ming Wang is terrible.
Speaking of lacrosse, we will have a Bandits game story up shortly. [...]

Why I’m Done With Major League Baseball:

By Chris
Sources: Teixeira, Yanks agree to 8-year deal
Free-agent first baseman Mark Teixeira has reached agreement with the New York Yankees on an eight-year contract worth more than $170 million, two sources involved in the negotiations tell ESPN The Magazine’s Buster Olney.
The Yankees swooped in on Teixeira on Tuesday when it was believed the Boston Red Sox or the [...]

Yellow Paint and Wire Mesh

by Ryan

I would say something kind about Yankee Stadium, but I’ve never been there in my life. There was just something that held me back, probably the fact that wearing a Sox hat in that place would get my face caved in.
Either way, as you read the Red Sox are playing their last game ever in [...]

Shutting the Door

by Ryan

Michael Kay sounded so sad tonight, and that makes me so, so happy.
That is all.

Getting Off On the Right Foot

by Ryan
If this were an exclusively baseball blog, we would be a two team blog. For those of you who are new to these parts, myself and Rich are Red Sox fans, while Jon and Chris are Yankees fans. If you also haven’t noticed, I’m around much more often than Jon and Chris.
Keeping this in mind, [...]

Knowledge is Power

“Red Sox Nation? What a bunch of [expletive] that is. That was a creation of the Red Sox and ESPN, which is filled with Red Sox fans.
Go anywhere in America and you won’t see Red Sox hats and jackets, you’ll see Yankee hats and jackets. This is a Yankee country. We’re going to put the [...]
