Pro Quality. Fan Perspective.
Around SBN: Baby Boilers no more: Michigan State-Purdue Preview

At the bottom it says it is satire, but I could swear those are real quotes. This is what every Yankee fan is really thinking, no doubt:

"A-Rod is definitely a true Yankee now," said Greg Camello, 26, of Queens. "When he’s in a clutch situation now, he feels confident and raises his game to the next level. I think Derek Jeter is starting to rub off on him. Or maybe Kate Hudson. It definitely has nothing to do with the fact that he is a very good hitter in the midst of a very short stretch in which he happens to be batting well. He’s just different now."

That Derek Jeter, with his long at bats...

What a pro.

It's a little inappropriate

that Jeter would be rubbing off on A-Rod. Just a disturbing image. Not to mention, with Minka Kelly at home, you’d think there’d be no need for that sort of thing.

Damn you!!!!

I had successfully blocked out the image of him ever touching my Minka!!! And on another note, At least j can watch Froday Night Lights on wednesday and not the game.

Froday Night Lights sounds like a cool late 70s dance club.

A-Rod will never be a true Yankee

Omar's off-season contract strategy.  (Get it?)
(Yes, I'm having too much fun with GraphJam)
I'm doing a little study on the NL East and thought I'd share an interesting little tidbit.  To all of the self-loathing Mets fans/lazy 'MLB insiders' and journalistic parrots who have 1) Condemned the entire Mets organization as a joke 2) Written off this core's impressive run to date and 3) Deified the Phillies as unstoppable juggernauts w/ no chance to lose this division:

Yes, those wins are weighted towards '06-'07 and yes, the Phillies' are more recent but the fact remains that no other team in that span can even come close to the Mets total of days in first place, which should be garnering a lot more respect than it has.  If only because we still have nearly the same core in place that has clearly had a lot of success and health-willing can very easily do so again in 2010.
