Re: August 13 Orioles @ Yankees

I adore my team.

Who is Betemit and why is he playing for Phillips?

People who talk on their phones during games need to be killed with fire. I don't care when you got your nails done or what client you're meeting with.

People who don't pay attention to the games and talk (read: [Alex at bat] "Yay, Derek! Hit us one!"; [Cano gets the ball, flips to first] "Derek got him out!"; [person at bat, big ass screen in center field showing their face and number] "Who's batting?" or best of all [Alex goes out with others for their stretches] "Who's that guy with the long socks? Is he a coach? Must be a coach.") need to be killed with fire.

Imagine, if you will, the following starting rotation: Wang, Hughes, Chamberlain, Pettitte, Moose - not necessarily in that order - and tell me you don't look forward to it just a little.

Bradford, if you hit Melky again, I will find and break you. Well ... hit you, anyway.

All you wankers out there saying Melky needed to be traded? Yeah. Say it now. I dare you.

*laughing* I adore you.

That guy playing for Andy is known as HISS around here because THAT is the noise I make when I see him. HE is the reason our Scotty is halfway across the world. I understand that it's irrational to hold this trade against him. I am okay with being irrational :)

And also, since we're talking about HISS, may I just say that his at-bat song "Betterman" pisses me off. We HAD a better man and we traded him for another middle infielder we don't need. Yes, I get the whole "it sounds like Betemit" thing, I'm rocking the whole irrational bitch thing...

Moving on! In order to get into the game, "fans" (especially those not wearing Yankee gear OR wearing PINK Yankee gear) should have to be able to look at a team picture and name 20 guys from the 25-man. If you can't, you don't get in.

And yes, cell phones used for anything other than bragging about your seats, squeeing over a great hit, great pitching, a walk-off, or other basebally talk should be outlawed. That's cause for a lifetime ban if you ask me.

That rotation sounds filthy. Although I'm not convinced that I want Joba as a starter. I can picture him as the heir to Mo's throne down the road...but that's just me. ;)

! I was furious at Bradford. If that was a purpose pitch for Melky's throw, I hope he's pleased with the results. I also know how much complaining about New York Bradford did when he left, so it made me HAPPY that it was him that took the loss ^_^

I love the word wanker XD I used it in traffic this morning, actually. Hee,.

I'm glad you had a good time at the Stadium ♥

Around here he's 'aitsu', which means 'that guy' and can be very dismissive. (The first time I saw him when I came back I actually asked my dad "Who is that guy and why is he playing for my team?" Dad told me and he grounded to first and I said 'aitsu' in annoyance. So that's his name now.) Irrationality is fun :)

I didn't even realize his song was "Betterman" - and yeah, that does piss me off. My Better Man is in the Wrong Uniform right now because of him :( *somewhere Aitsu is sneezing right now*

Seriously. I'd do it in three seconds. These guys were trying to remember what numbers Derek and Alex wore, too, which was like " ... O_O" for me. Oh! And! I nearly forgot! These were the same people asking for Wang to be taken out in the FIRST INNING. No, wait, better still - asking for him to be taken out after the FIRST BATTER. These people require a revocation of their breathing liscences.

Seriously. Cell phones need to be checked at the gate or something. If you're not the absolutely adorable Japanese boys sitting three rows in front of me and using them to take pictures of the screen, you don't get them.

Doesn't it, though? With Chamberlain, I'd need to see him start in the bigs before I decide where I want him. Not like I'll be listened to, but ... I think he could be really amazing as a starter, and yet I doubt there's anyone else who could be Mo's heir.

Tell me about it! I jumped to my feet before Melky had hit the ground and was spitting and hissing before the rest of the crowd had. I'm glad it brought him what it did. Was it just me who got the feeling that Giambi was a bit pissed when he went to the plate? *innocent smile* Bradford can play in New York traffic. *grumble, grumble*

Wanker, like snog and shag, is an amazing word, and I thank the British for it every time I use it XD

♥ I'm glad you had a fun time reading this ;D ♥

Cool thing 2352352643634 about vintage_belle: she can be condescending in two languages. I like it!

Exactly! See! I'm so glad you understand. ♥

Ugh, even fangirly twits know who Jeter & Alex are. What a waste of tickets. THOSE types are the ones booing Wanger in the first inning x_x And really, how ridiculous is THAT? *flail flail*

These people require a revocation of their breathing liscences.
AMEN.

Honestly, I'm to the point where I'm so excited to have the big guy on our team that I don't care if he's only a pinch runner, I just love his mojo. (LOL)

I love that you hit your feet before everyone else did. That amuses me and makes me proud ^_^ I was home alone (thankfully) and I bolted off of the couch shrieking "Bradford you jackass!" *laughs* That's twice in a week I've done that and it's so not me. But I'm sorry, that just seemed way too intentional to me. Oh, I agree. Jase was pissed for our dimply, beautiful boy. Nobody bruises Leche and gets away with it! Heh, I love it.

Oooh, snog. That's a great word. I never use it, but I should, it's awesome. And I do a tremendous British accent. Which I am doing right now but you can't hear. Heehee.

I'm so glad you're back on this side of the pond. I've missed you and your posts <3

She can be condescending in two languages and hopes to get better at it ;D

Oh, I totally do. Rationality sometimes just isn't the answer, you know?

Not only a waste of tickets, but a waste of fantastic seats. Oh, those types were totally booing Wang in the first. And I wanted to hurt them. Badly.

I wish I could have seen the Yankees dugout when Melky got hit. I'd bet the whole bench stood at the same time, or at least started to. There was probably big Melky love that night.

They really have given us some fantastic words. I'd love to hear your British accent. ♥

I'm glad to be back here, too. I missed posting and comment-chatting with you <3

[purplecargirl.livejournal.com]

I have no doubt you will :)

I know, it's especially true where baseball is concerned.

Ridiculous! These people should be banned for life and have to give us any future tickets. Oh, and I think that would have been considered justifiable homicide. Just a thought.

The idea of people barking and growling on Melky's behalf makes me sparkle. I <3 that kid.

I don't speak multiple languages, and I can't roll my r's but I can do a snooty Brit like a pro XD

Meee toooo! ♥ ♥ ♥

*laughs* purplecargirl already covered my Betemit thoughts perfectly. So I'll just add..grrr.

Two acceptable reasons for using a phone during a game:

1. Medical emergency
2. You just caught a homerun

Anything else? Questionable :p

*laughs* Oh man, the groupies who totally don't know anything about the team except that Derek and Alex are good-looking grate on my last nerve. Last time I was at the Stadium, I was plagued by a guy who brought his baseball-clueless girlfriend. Luckily, they decided to leave halfway through. Ick.

Many people out there are eating crow on Melky right now. I love it ^_^

[vintage-belle.livejournal.com]

Grrr indeed. I roll my eyes when he comes to the plate because errrrg. Just errrg.

Yeah, really. Especially when the guy in front of you keeps calling Wang 'Cheen' while complaining about him.

The really sad part is that these were older people. Like, probably mid-thirties people. How do continue to be a groupie at thirty? And they kept it up through the whole game.

Melky is love. The end. ♥
