what a hater, if you dont like two fans high fiving each other after an unreal comeback, just dont read it. stay away, you know what the thread is going to be, just stay away.

but yeah, its just one game. sure. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

How is it not one game? It's always nice when the 8th place team in the AL makes a fantastic comeback versus the last place team in the AL, but it's still just one game in the standings.

the yankees are that good - they WILL win the east

b/c they have to play something like .700 ball the rest of the way to have a chance to win the division and they don't have the pitching to do it.

a comeback is nice and all, but the key is they had to come back down a bunch in a game where they had Randy Johnson vs. Hideo Nomo. you shouldn't trail more than a run or 2 ever w/ that matchup.

wait, 8 run comebacks count as two games right?


all that aside, trying to belittle it and act like its not that big a deal by saying its one game is just stupid. there are things called momentum and enjoying watching the game. sure, this and some game we beat chigaco in 6-2 after being up early and dominating both count the same, but which one was more fun?

whenever the NYY do somethign it has bigger meaning than any other team in baseball. this win cures the fact that they have two rookies in the starting rotation, the woest defense in the AL and glaring holes in LF/1B. really it does.
