With the Clipper Cooper laugh, no less. Awesome.

by Scipio Tex on Nov 5, 2009 10:40 AM CST reply actions  

Clipper Cooper seems like the type to be a Yankee fan. Arsenal too I’d bet.

If there is a God, Clipper went to a World Series game, and Scipio will share his thoughts with us.

Let me put this amazing accomplishment into perspective:

Yankees : 1 World Series Championship this decade :: Texas : 1 conference championship under Mack Brown

Greatest sports franchise in history.

by HenryJames on Nov 5, 2009 10:50 AM CST reply actions  

Worst fans in sports history, evidenced by one HenryJames texting me in Japanese all night:

Matsui! (homerun)
Matsui! (single)
Hiroshima’d!
Matsui! (double)

At least you spared us the 27th Heaven! headline every paper in the northeast ran with this morning.

How much wood can a Japanese wood chuck chuck if that wood chuck has 55,000 porn videos and is swinging a 31 ounce bat? Apparently enough wood for an MVP.

by texoz on Nov 5, 2009 11:01 AM CST reply actions  

$208,097,414 apparently well spent.

by Magnificent Bastard on Nov 5, 2009 11:04 AM CST reply actions  

But what is that in yen?

by HenryJames on Nov 5, 2009 11:06 AM CST reply actions  

Settle down, people. You need some context.

Among the other things HenryJames likes:

Fauxhawks
Sleeveless shirts
Biodegradable paper towels
‘Microbrews’ by Annheiser-Busch
The Luke and Laura episodes of General Hospital
Dodge Caravans
Scattergories
Al Capone Cognac-Dipped Cigarillos
Re-runs of Blossom.
Whoaaah!
Ewok fan-fiction
Pina Coladas
Bowling on television
Parachute pants
and
Bell Biv DeVoe

HenryJames is the George Steinbrenner of Barking Carnival. Feared by some, mocked by many, loathed by all.

by Vasherized on Nov 5, 2009 11:07 AM CST reply actions  

But, the real question is, of the seven runs the Yankees scored last night, how many would have been charted as “consistent” runs?

by uthookem on Nov 5, 2009 11:08 AM CST reply actions  

¥18,852,818,800 give or take…

The Statesman went with the politically correct “Godzilla” headline over a picture of Matsui.

Waited in vain for the Pedro = Mothra analogy.

by parlin on Nov 5, 2009 11:20 AM CST reply actions  

Game 6 was like watching an old Godzilla movie where Tokyo is replaced by Philadelphia. I assume Matsui’s imaginary wife will be quite pleased when Matsui brings newspaper clippings of the game into her dungeon and reads them aloud.

Go Yankees!

by Meekrob on Nov 5, 2009 11:26 AM CST reply actions  

Godzilla? That’s pretty offensive. It’s “Godzirra,” thank you.

Easily the greatest franchise in the history of all professional sports. Though I say that without confidence when I think about obscure, Arab polo leagues that play with the severed heads of the unclean. I mean, do those guys get paid? Is one severed head polo league particularly dominant like the Yankees? I can’t say with certainty. I just don’t know.

Has anyone ever won a noodling title 27 times? I don’t want to speak out and sound absurd.

by Chooky on Nov 5, 2009 11:52 AM CST reply actions  

Nine years. 1.6 billion in payroll. One championship. Yaaawwwwnn…..

Now with the end drawing near and another championship in hand, George should wheel himself out on the terrace of his highrise, shit his pants, and execute a beautiful swan dive. My only prayer is that he lands on the fucking ‘Donald’…

Yankees, live long and prosper -
Congrats from the crew of the Enterprise.

by texoz on Nov 5, 2009 11:53 AM CST reply actions  

HenryJames has high regard for Hideki Matsui’s baseball acumen. He has even higher regard for Matsui’s accomplishments as a collector of pornographic material.

by BrickHorn on Nov 5, 2009 11:55 AM CST reply actions  

Congrats…the Evil Empire was finally able to purchase a championship.

by Tex on Nov 5, 2009 11:55 AM CST reply actions  

Always the complaints about payroll.

Yeah, it’s so unamerican to cycle funds into your product in order to overcome competitors. Clearly they were willing to sacrifice the Underpaid, Yet Admirably Gritty and Continued to Fight in Spite of a Flailing Organization Title for a well executed dedication to winning AL pennants and championships.

Perhaps they should go bankrupt in order to garner real respect.

by Chooky on Nov 5, 2009 12:10 PM CST reply actions  

Congratulations to your…….

World Champions… Cobra Kai!
World CHampions… Prison Guards from the Longest Yard!
World Champions… Decepticons!
World Champions… Judge Smails!
World Champions… Omega House!
World Champions… Cruella DeVille
World Champions… Yankees!

Same thing.

You know how much money they make? They’d be crucified if they didn’t spend it to put a good product on the field.

I paid like $11 for this Miller Lite at Yankee Stadium, and I don’t even like Miller Lite. But it was either that or give the money to a homeless guy.

Your hand looks like a monkey’s foot.

Quite a crowd that day.

by BrickHorn on Nov 5, 2009 12:54 PM CST reply actions  

It was a decent crowd but everyone in that area cleared out in fear of monkey foot hand guy.

by Chooky on Nov 5, 2009 12:55 PM CST reply actions  

Yeah, the guy wearing the $4000 suit is going to let the guy who doesn’t make that in four months sit near him. Come on!

If I’m licking my screen does that mean I have a problem?

There was a one-armed guy sitting to the left, but it wasn’t Jim Abbott.

by HenryJames on Nov 5, 2009 1:03 PM CST reply actions  

Always the complaints about payroll.

And why not? It’s easy to win when you can just go out, open the checkbook and make all of the big name stars offers they can’t refuse. The joy of following sports is witnessing the triumph of strategy, discipline and tactics. That’s the reason so many fans are drawn to stories like Moneyball. It’s also the reason many of us have little to no respect for Greg Davis. There’s nothing interesting about a collection of superior athletes simply out-muscling a group of inferior athletes. The real intrigue in sports comes from evenly matched opponents (or underdogs) winning on the strength of superior intellect and training.

Top 5 Sports hates, in order of significance:

Yes. It means you have a chimpfoot fetish.

On further inspection, I’m pretty sure that’s a picture of Mila Kunis holding a beer. With her foot.

I burned it. Down to the ground.

There was money in that banana stand.

 Well, it’s all gone now.

There was $250,000 lining the inside walls of the banana stand.

What?

Cash, Michael. What the hell did you think I meant when I said…
There is money… in… the banana stand.

We’re not judging you but you need to show some self restraint and stop licking the monkey foot hand. Geez.

If you are a fan of anything yankee related, and you live in, were born in, or are a fan of the Great State of Texas, then you sir, are broken.

Me too. But I’d insist on talking like Charlton Heston and referring to her as a “damned dirty ape.”

You couldn’t get a discount on an $11 beer? Doesn’t the “but ma’am, i have a monkey-foot hand…” get you a discount? guess not when you have $200mil in bills to pay.
