I'm telling you, this could be a crash bigger than Black Tuesday. Well, okay so maybe there was one team that fell apart in a bigger implosion than this: Only the mysterious Great Yankee Collapse of 2004. But this is awfully close.
Where exactly have I been hiding? The season is about 4 weeks old and I was on vacation for 2 of those weeks. Say what you want about ,me but i think we all know I don't run and hide when my teams don't do well.
boy,was that embarrassing. since the GYC,the yankees look like the cursed ones.boston always would fold when the yankees where the opponents.now there is no fear in this franchise or in its fan base of the yankees.
We did win the head to head alst year and came back from a big deficit to win the division so you may want to rethink that last statement.
what does that have to do with frame of mind? are there reports out of boston about "oh shit here come the yankees?"is there a pler on the yankee roster who is a Red Sox killer ala David ortiz is to the yanks? I was just stating the mental aspect of the game.which the yanks and their fans always hide behind.you know the we own boston,boston can't beat us.
The yanks don't intimidate anybody anymore, yes they are a good team but in the dynasty years teams were almost defeated before they stepped on the field-those days are over. The yanks are like every other good team now.
and that is exactly my point.but yet you argue my first post only to agree 1 post later. when is your birthday again?I want to buy you a AROD jersey.
But yopu said since the '04 LCS the Yanks look like the cursed ones yet we came back from a big deficit and won the division last year. If we were the cursed ones we would have blown the lead or we would have folded when down big and not won the div.
its still to come.curses are built over years and get stronger and stronger as things are repeated.sorta like arod coming up small in big situations.and don't tell me beating the twins is big.
yeah sort of like the curse of Steinbrenner which I heard alot about growing up never seeing the yankees win then a funny thing happened after we built a great team- we started to win! Curses are excuses for losers.
I definitely think if gorge wasn't suspended then we wouldn't have had another dynasty BUt if there truly was a "curse" then we still never would have won. George came back in '93 and most of the dynasty team was put in place around '93 or after.
