Hey guys, let’s not prop up the Redsox like they are America’s team here.
As perhaps the lone Yankees fan on the board, here I would like to note the asterisk next to the 2 World Series wins, now that Ortiz and Manny (the main reason the Red Sox got over the hump finally.. Ortiz’s home run off Rivera being juiced).
*2004
*2007
The Yankees didn’t need steriods to win, they would have just purchased the best free agents on the market(with or without steriods), so the steriods probably hurt them more by giving a temporary surge to the redsox).
** Yes, this is off topic, but I just wanted to give voice to the evil empire here (grin).
Oh, please - silly Yankee fan. Worry about having the greatest choke in the history of sports. You people will do anything that deflects from having that honor. Greatest. Choke. EVER.
A-Rod and Giambi never juiced. Nor did Tiger or Johnny Damon. The whole dumb league is filled with juicers.
Makes me furious when guys like Mickey, Maris, Aaron, Ted Williams, Joe DiMaggio and others did not juice. :-(
Mickey and Maris were strong as bulls without the juice and no juiced balls or bats.
One word about the Yankees and steroids -— “Giambi”
ha haaaaaaaa...... piss off, dude, you must be a Croak-ly supporter — do you have any idea how many Yankees players have been juiced in the past 10-15-20 yrs???????
I condemn it for all players and teams, wish no one had been doing it, but you cannot start introducing any “asterisk” without a comprehensive review of every player, team, and record in the past 15+ yrs (not that it would even be possible to do so).
If you want to try to introduce the “asterisk” for every team and player over 20 yrs who may have had any benefit from “juice” (1) you face an impossible task, it can’t be done, and (2) you would have to throw out just about everything that happened in the sport of MLB (since probably every team and at least every winning team has had some players on the juice).
Are you kidding? Steroids? Red Sox, Yankees? Pot meet kettle. Jason Giambi, Roger Clemens, Andy Pettitte, A-rod, Chuck Knoblauch, David Justice, Jason Grimsley, to name a few.
BTW,your boy Jason Giambi hit 2 hr in game 7 of the 2003 alcs while on roids.
Get a clue before you post fecal matter like the crap that you post.
p.s. You’re o.k. in my book, since you’re a conservative;-)
Politics trump sports allegiances!
