Blog Hog: Same Old Story Outta NY

What happened to your thugs last night, looking for trouble? Looks like Posada took a play outta A-Fraud's book with his little elbow jab (true, it was no hand slap), then your manager comes out to get in the mix. What a mess. "Umpire Jim Joyce said after the fight that Posada's elbow shove of Carlson was 'very unsportsmanlike' and a 'cheap shot,'" reported ESPN.com. You people get away with a lot! I'd like a full explanation from you, Dear Criss.

By the way, did you see Dice-K is back? Six good innings. We'll take it. Paul Byrd tonight - a little shaky against the Angels. But somehow our guys pulled this one off. We were behind, we were ahead, we were tied, we were behind, we were tied, and Alex Gonzalez hits a walk-off RBI. Game summary. Four hours. Oh, and while we discuss pitchers, let me say that I do like Schilling, but seriously - is he gonna run for Kennedy's seat?

Before I forget, count down to a BIG game this weekend. BYU-FSU. Oh yeah, watch out. BYU is number nine and looking good. Let's not forget Steve Young came from there. Yes, this is why I like them, but I wouldn't possibly like FSU, hello? And neither would you, so just agree with me on this. What if BYU shocks the college football world this year?
