Anyone else out there weirdly excited about the prospect of the Home Run Derby and All Star Game, despite all logic and reason? Yeah, me, too.
We can all use this thread tonight and tomorrow as an open thread to talk about all the festivities going on at Yankee Stadium.
I’m actually suprised they got someone who can really sing. Sporting events usually equal pop singers who can’t sing.
Do the math: what happened around opening day?
I figured they would have gotten a New Yorker to sing it. Shit they could have let Ronan Tynan done it
OK OK i’ll say it—
they could have gotten Madonna
Oh, yeah – I’m moving to Southie in a couple of weeks. Whee!
Shipping Up to Boston!
Papelbaby = conceived on April Fool’s Day. That’s so perfect.
geez you just get there and you’re moving again.
Well, “moving” in the sense that I’m putting my clothes and TV in my truck and driving it to Southie. But I’m only there until October 1. Then who the hell knows – hopefully Back Bay.
Did Tek even bat?
No, I saw that coming though
if only Tito did this during some regular season games. WTF i’m pissed. I wanted the captain to hit here
I have friends who can see the Citgo sign and Fenway’s lights from their apartment in Back Bay. I’m insanely jealous of them.
Liza that can be remedied by asking your parents to move to Back Bay
What the hell, leave home and strike out on your own. For the team.
I’m on the 34th floor of my building at work, and my office window looks out onto the State House to the right, and across the Common and Newbury and down to Fenway on the left…. with the Charles spread out behind. It’s pretty awesome.
Not gonna happen. I wish.
Better watch out with that view Texy, Marky Mark might shoot you.
DREWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
JD DREWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
DREW!
DREWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
YEEAAAHHHH!!!!
Omg, is that awesome.
DREW!!!
DREW!!!!!!!!
I love that GA boy!
So basically, JD Drew is amazing right now.
that must have killed all those SKANKS fans having to cheer for a Red Sox player. SUCK IT NEW YORK
So can we have JD go up for the next 10 outs like its the HRD
that was the happiest ive been all season as a red sox fan (minus the Lester no hitter)
If I could live anywhere, personally I would live in the Ritz Carlton Towers in Back Bay.
Personally, I would live in the EMC Club in Fenway. :)
Pappy, Yum Yum.
The back bay is my favorite part of Boston.
I don’t think I have ever heard this many boos.
Such classy fans that New York has and they say Red Sox fans are bad.
What are they chanting?
Fruit Bat, ready to close.
They weren’t booing, they were chanting Mari – ano
Seriously, the skanks fans can kiss my ass when they don’t make the playoffs with fruitbat
Weren’t Paps comments taken out of context?
well, if i’d have known you’d all be here, i would hvae dropped in sooner.
i screamed invectives at the stupid woman waving the back page of the new york post at pappy-boo and yelling at him.
now it’s overrated
I HATE Yankee fans.
I’m going to laugh very hard if Rivera gets the loss in this game
That sucked.
Oh man.
WTF?
should have left Tek in there Tito
this is about the time he should be waving his WS ring at the stadium.
