    Red sux fans are more like Riaders fans - they only have ancient history and a recent win here n there to try and make their points valid then they cry and moan that their team is somehow the best
    O&B I think you missed the point of my Analogy, the previous poster was bringing up Bill Buckner and Buckey Dent in an attempt to run some smack on me as a Red Sox Fan, I was just saying that it does not bother me, it never did, but "Tuck Rule" still upsets Radier fan. I never implied that Yankee fan and Radier fan are in anyway alike, I respect most Yankee fans.
    Ask me about My Jesus and how to have a relationship with Him.

      I have nothing bad to say about red sox FANS............ but my love for the Yankees is equal to my love for the Broncos...... and I'm looking forward to a long, drawn-out Yankees/red sox battle for 1st place this season. I survived the years that the likes of Rick Rhoden served as the "ace" of the rotation..... Steve Farr was the closer.......... and my faith has never wavered. It's still strange to view Ron Guidry the Pitching Coach and Don Mattingly the Hitting Coach...... when memories of them playing for the Yankees are so strong in my mind. I'll even share my all-time Yankee lineup and pitching staff (only going back as far as the ones I watched play)............. these are tough calls to make, but here goes.........


      SP--Ron Guidry
      SP-- David Cone
      SP--Andy Pettitte
      SP--Roger Clemens
      SP--Catfish Hunter

      Closer--Mariano Rivera
      LRP--Sparky Lyle
      RRP--Jeff Nelson
      LRP--Mike Stanton
      RRP--Ramiro Mendoza
      LRP--Graeme Lloyd
      (I couldn't bear the thought of making Goose Gossage a setup reliever...... it was difficult to list Lyle as a setup man, but I couldn't leave him off the team, either).

      1. 2B--Willie Randolph
      2. SS--Derek Jeter
      3. 1B-- Don Mattingly
      4. DH--Reggie!! Reggie!! Reggie!!
      5. LF--Dave Winfield
      6. CF--Bernie Williams
      7. RF--Paul O'Neill
      8. C--Thurman Munson
      9. 3B--Graig Nettles (sorry, A-Rod..... Nettles will ALWAYS be my 3rd baseman ).

      Bench--
      C--Joe Girardi
      C/1B--Jim Leyritz
      IF--Bucky Dent (for those red sox games )
      OF--Chad Curtis ( I couldn't bench Mickey Rivers)
      OF--Lou Piniella


      It would be easy to make a 50-man roster..........

          You got that right, it would be so difficult to make an all-time roster of just 25 players. Like these few examples:

          1B - Mattingly vs. Gehrig
          SS - Jeter vs. Scooter
          C - Munson vs. Bill *****ey vs. Yogi
          OF - Williams, O'Neill, Winfield vs. Mantle, Dimaggio, Ruth
          Closer: Mariano vs. Goose (who had 3 inning saves)

          Heck, make Babe Ruth the starter if it was just for 1 game.

                Sox win Today 11-1 and Francona gets his 500 win and a manager, as I type this the Yankees are losing. It's a great night to be a Red Sox Fan.

                  Red Sox | Wells scheduled to throw simulated game
                  Mon, 15 May 2006 08:11:08 -0700

                  Mike Petraglia, of Boston.RedSox.MLB.com, reports Boston Red Sox SP David Wells (knee) is scheduled to throw a simulated game Monday, May 15. Wells was originally scheduled to throw Saturday, May 13, but that game has been backed up two days because of rainouts at Fenway Park.


                  From KFFL.com




                  ************************************************** ************************************************** ********************************
                  It will be a while before Wells returns. He likely needs 1 or 2 simulated games plus 3 or more minor league rehab starts before he'll be ready to pitch for boston.

                  I'm still a David Wells fan .......... After all he did for the Yankees, the least I can do is pull for his return to health in his last season.
