Official MLB Playoffs thread

its true that if you don’t like the yankees… you hate them…

therefore 95% of America would like to see the Yankees lose…

b/c 95% of yankees fans that don’t live in the city are bandwagon.

this is truth whether you deny or not buick

Once again who the fuck are you hondaride? Dont you have to go play golf with the braves?

Yeah all yankees fans outside of NYC are bandwagon fans, hahahah thats some funny shit right there. Your just pissed because your braves couldent even sell out a playoff game. So sad.

You’re a fucking retard. How many players on the Braves came from their farm system?

At least good Ol’ George invests money into his team. Does Ted Turner or whomever owns the Braves now do that? No.

Last time I checked, the Mets, the Red Sox, etc all have HUGE payrolls and they have just as many WS wins since 2000 as the Yankees (the Mets have NONE and didn’t even MAKE the playoffs).

Maybe you are just pissed that Atlanta lost to NY not once but TWICE in the WS…

the sox have a decent farm system also :slight_smile:

id be even more pissed that the braves were so cocky in 96 winning the first 2 in NY, then they proceded to get spanked. and hondaboi, for someone that supposadly knows everything about baseball im actually suprised that you are playing the payroll card, when you know that lately the yankees are winning from within, payroll is just a jealous excuse to use when your team sucks, plain and simple.

A lot more then you are aware of apparently.

I think that is his point. The Braves didn’t need to invest a ton to be a decent team. They mostly go after prospects and develop their own talent. Texeria was the first big acquisition in a while.

I will run down the list of home grown Yankees which is the point I was trying to make.

Cano
Jeter
Posada
Rivera
Hughes
Cabrera
Kennedy
Chamberlain

What is a “decent team” .500 ball?? Sorry but that sucks.

Any team that wants to win is going to be big into the free agent market. It’s as simple as that. Atlanta doesn’t want to WIN that badly so it doesn’t sign that many players including Andruw Jones which was a HUGE mistake.

No, you hate they the Yankees because,

A) Everyone likes them (including douche-bags who have no clue although since Boston won a few years ago, everyone likes them now).
B) Their fans are obnoxious at times or giant posers (see above).
C) They win a lot

andruw jones is the best player the braves have, and he is going to help any team he goes to, hes a stud and the braves are morons for not opening the wallet.

andruw jones’s name is spelled like shit.:smiley:

why do u always have to be negative and nasty?

I already stated in this thread that the Yankees are getting it together with the farm system they have now. I was commenting on the Braves system and how they have been consistently using it.

I would say the always being in contention for the pennant makes them a decent team

This is where you don’t have a clue, but thanks for trying i guess. JONES WANTS $20 MILLION. Only the Yankees would be that stupid (see “The Roger Clemens experiment”). He had the worst season ever and refused to change his swing when offered help or advice. It would be a waste to give him and $8,000,000 raise when they have someone just as capable to take his place (See Jeff Francoeur). The Braves made the perfect decision. They need pitching right now and nothing else.

I hate the Yankees because I follow the sport religiously. World series domination is my number 1 reason for hating the Yankees. You stated the reasons that people who just watch now and then would use.

You are an idiot. (See above for the reason)

yeah its really tough being in contention when your in a shitty division like the NL east has been for the past 12 years.

lol @ kevin…

sorry kev… but i HATE the yanks. :stuck_out_tongue:

damn cubs lost game 1 :(. Zambrano looked good though.

IT would be nice to see the tribe take the yanks in their series… but im still gonna hope for my cubs :).
