Also, [censored] you michael kay. Just insisting the Yankees will clinch. So [censored] arrogant, no wonder the rest of the country hates us.

[/ QUOTE ]

Michael Kay can say stupid things and the rest of the country does hate the Yankees, but otherwise you have no clue what you are talking about.

Michael Kay is right the Yankees will clinch (the chance of not making the playoffs is under 1% statistically).... and stating confidently that we will clinch when the magic number is 1 and there are 5 games to play has nothing to do with why the rest of America hats the Yankees.

Michael Kay was talking out of his butt last night when he kept saying how much Torre wanted to clinch right away so that he can rest players and prepare his rotation for the playoffs. Clearly, Torre was not so worried about clinching last night given the selection of relief pitchers that were brought into the game. Kay then started saying the opposite -- that clinching didn't matter last night -- when Veras came in (followed by Karsten).

First, thanks for telling me I have no clue. My first real insult in my 2+2 history.

Second, I never said the game was a must win, or a disagreed with him, I just think he's arrogant and a major turn off to anyone who exhibits non douchey behavior. You must love him!

[/ QUOTE ]

Jeez, missed the fact that you took what I said so personally until the loveable Sublime chimed in. I do pwn him and he can't get over it....

..but you took it the wrong way (And if that is the worse "insult"-- which it really wasn't -- you have recieved on 2+2 after 10,000+ posts, you must be the sweetest guy in the world). I criticized a single comment you made showing a hypersensitivity to Michael Kay's blabbering idiocy. I just can't see how it is "arrogant" to state with near certainty that the Yankees would be in the playoffs when the magic number is 1 and there are six games left to play...

OH -- and Yankee haters don't hate the Yankees for their arrogance, they hate the Yankees for their success (and the way they perceive them reaching that success). A little swagger (or arrogance) is like twisting the knife - and if it makes the haters more delirious, all the better.

On Kay: I am not a fan, but he is nowhere near the most annoying Yankee broadcaster (see, e.g., Sterling and Waldman).

Anyway, the Yankees are in the playoffs now and hopefully moving towards #27.
