When will Joe get Yank-ed out of the South Bronx?

This is sort of related to this thread, but you know what blows my mind?

A New York City-based team or a team that draws from New York (Giants, Jets, Islanders) hasn't won a championship in any sport since the Yankees won the 2000 World Series. It is the longest drought for the Big Apple in its modern sports history. The longest previous gap was from 1905-1921, but of course, that was before the NFL, NBA or NHL was around. Since World War II, NYC's longest drought was from 1962-1968.

The following cities have won championships since the '00 World Series:
Baltimore
Boston/Foxborough
Tampa/St. Pete
Pittsburgh
Indianapolis
Los Angeles
Detroit
San Antonio
Miami
Phoenix
Anaheim, Calif.
Chicago
St. Louis
East Rutherford, N.J. (obviously near NYC, but the Devils aren't considered a NY team the way the Giants and Jets are)
Raleigh, N.C.

To possibly be added in the next month ...
Ottawa
Salt Lake City (not likely)
Cleveland (yeah right)

I don't know why, but I find that fascinating.

NYC ... the new Cleveland! (Hi Spnited!)

 

Have you heard the new slogan for NYC?

NYC: As many championships for our major professional sports teams as Milwaukee since 2001.

 

New slogan for Milwaukee ... Our teams suck as bad as New York.

New slogan for Raleigh, N.C. ... New York is our bitch.

 

New slogan for NYC: Dale Sveum Has More Rings Than Robin Yount.

 

New slogan for Milwaukee: Don Mattingly loves to ask Robin Yount what playing in the World Series is like.

 

New slogan for NYC: John Franco--Better Than Pete Ladd

 

Bubbs, I live in NJ.. I got more championshps since 2000 than NYC.

And fuck Cleveland.
We're not a bunch of "poor us" whiners like those Cleveland douchebags.

 

No, dickhead, I was referring to Damon. There are those who believe he exaggerates all his little aches and pains because he a fucking pussy.

And Torre did bench him for 2 days after he stood at the plate and looked at five pitches without ever moving the bat to make the last out in the other day in Chicago.
He has fucking quit.

 

Hope George enjoys flushing another $37 million down the drain for the next 2.75 seasons.

 

New slogan for Milwaukee: Hey New York, enjoy Luis Vizcaino!

 

New slogan for MIlwaukee:
We were good until we had to play teams outside the fucking pathetic NL Central.

 

Damon's played 145 or more games 11 straight years. He's not a pussy. If anything, he's breaking down.

As for not taking the bat off his shoulder, could the guy just be in a mental and physical slump?
