Oh sure, I'll bet you cleaned it up because Mister Babe came into the room.

I always thought it was Austrian girls who liked to be on top, anyway........of the page.

It's that St. Frances education, kiddo. I can only take it so far!

Come out Virginia don't let me wait.....

I was tortured with that song when I was 16!!

I have to take all this abuse AND the Yankees got their asses handed to them?!!

How should I know ?

You think I didn't torture the girls at St. Barnabas with the cute little uniforms when I was 16 ? I went to Mount so that was my our "sister" school.

Bunch of teases.

My cousin was a cheerleader at St. Barnabas and ended up marrying a football player from Mount.

WHORE OFF!

Seriously, pubescent flirting and sophomoric non-humour --> out of this thread.

Does anybody else wonder why we bothered picking up Luis Vizcaino in the RJ trade?

For comic relief?

Vizcaino is an absolute nightmare that makes me long for the bullpen of 2006.

Isn't that a restaurant on Arthur Avenue?

I will NOT be responsible for the hijacking of another thread!!!! Yankees Rule, Yankees Rule!! Except for their bullpen!! Which sucks!

Afraid that you're going to get yelled at by someone?

DC, I am just trying to have good message board manners. You should know by now that I can go off on 15 different tangents in one conversation. My posting habits are no different.

That said, The Yankees game won't be broadcast here until 10:00 tonight because they're playing in Seattle. I will never make it past the 2nd inning!

I guess that it's the Christian thing to do.

Who's yelling at Mrs. R

*shakes fist in anger*

DJ and Ronnie had a point, although if I can put up with FS and Irish endlessly sniping at one another, they could've cut me a little slack.

Signs point to Boston

NEW YORK (AP) -- Roger Clemens could make his season debut with the New York Yankees at Fenway Park, and that's fine with manager Joe Torre.

"It's going to be a circus anyway, It doesn't really matter," Torre said Thursday. "Wherever it falls, it's going to fall."

Clemens agreed Sunday to return to the Yankees and has been working out this week in Lexington, Ky., where his son, Koby, plays for a Houston Astros' farm team.

Roger Clemens is scheduled to arrive at the Yankees' minor league complex in Tampa, Fla., next Monday and to have a bullpen session the following day.

"We'll know more after he throws his bullpen," Torre said. "He's in good shape. The only thing he hasn't done is competed."

When he rejoined the Houston Astros last year, Clemens agreed to a contract on May 31, made three minor league starts and returned to the majors on June 22. The Yankees would like him to pitch in minor league home games, where they are in control of grooming the mounds.

Class A Tampa is home against Fort Myers from May 17-19, Double-A Trenton is home against Portland from May 21-24 and Triple-A Scranton is home against Indianapolis and Toledo from May 24-31.

New York, 1-5 against Boston this year, plays a three-game series at Fenway Park from June 1-3.

Torre wasn't bothered by those who criticized the Yankees and Clemens for a provision in the $28,000,022 contract that allows the seven-time Cy Young Award winner not to travel with the team at all times.

"I think it's just an example of how many people have opinions on things," Torre said. "I always find that opinions are dangerous when you do it from afar. We don't know what the situation is.

"Yes, it is in his contract. That's part of the deal but we don't know if it's going to be an issue. So until that time comes, I'm not even going to really concern myself with it," he said.

3-0, Top of the 8th, and my boys are looooooosing!! Why, oh why are they not winning??

Don't feel bad SB It's the top of the 8th and the Tribe is losing 2-6 against Oakland.

Don't feel bad because you can't make it past the second inning when the Yankees play on the West coast. Most of their starting pitchers don't make it past the second inning either.

Looks like DeSalvo may be the real deal with his 2nd straight great outing:

6 2/3 innings, 7 hits, 2 runs, 3 BB, 2 SO, 1-0 with a 1.98 ERA

DeSalvo's a great talent, his problem has been mainly struggles at AAA which set him back significantly. But he did a great job last night.

Oh, and I watched it on YES HD for the first time last night. Holy fuck. It was the most amazing thing I've ever seen in my life.

Clemens to face Class A on Friday

SEATTLE -- The countdown for The Rocket's liftoff has begun.
Yankees manager Joe Torre said on Sunday that right-hander Roger Clemens is tentatively lined up to make his first Minor League appearance on Friday for the Class A Tampa Yankees, pitching against the Fort Myers Miracle in a Florida State League game.

Clemens, 44, spent most of last week working at the University of Kentucky complex following the announcement of a prorated one-year, $28 million contract.

Eventually, Clemens will be back into the pinstriped uniform of the Yankees, for whom he pitched from 1999-2003. Clemens is expected to report to the Yankees' Legends Field complex on Monday and has been scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Tuesday.

Torre said that the Yankees have not yet decided if Clemens will need two or three starts in the Minor Leagues before making his first big-league appearance.

"A lot of it will depend after the first start," Torre said. "We'll see what that is, and if everything goes according to the way we expect it to go, he'll graduate."

Torre indicated that Clemens is likely to pitch just once for Class A Tampa, with the Yankees mindful of their Minor League schedules so as to keep Clemens at home stadiums, where the organization can control all aspects of mound maintenance.

Assuming Clemens makes it through his first effort for Tampa, he could pitch on May 23 for the Double-A Trenton Thunder of the Eastern League, facing the Portland Sea Dogs at Waterfront Park in New Jersey.

From there, the Yankees would need to decide whether Clemens' next start would come at Triple-A -- he would line up to pitch for the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees on May 28 against Toledo in an International League contest -- or in the big leagues.

The Yankees play at Toronto on May 28, but a third Minor League start would put Clemens in line to make his big-league return on June 2 at Boston's Fenway Park.

Torre said that he has not spoken recently with Clemens, but he has heard promising reports.

"He feels pretty good, from what I understand," Torre said. "But again, he needs to get his legs under him. The arm is one thing, but the legs are a big contributor to the way he pitches."

Absolutely pitiful! Pettitte goes 7 1/3 giving up 2 runs on 9 hits, his ERA is only 2.68 yet he loses the game and now has a record of 2-2.

The baseball gods work in mysterious ways. His ERA won't stay under three all year, and when it's in the high threes, he'll win some 9-7 games.

Eight friggen games back.

and is anyone catching Sheff tearing the ball apart with HIS new team?

I guess I'm not the only one who thought it was retarded to get rid of Gary Sheffield?

I swear New York teams all have that same problem.

It is a New York thing I guess.
