You know us. Whenever there’s a story that even remotely casts the New York Yankees in a bad light, we’re all over it like the fawning media and post-Super Bowl Eli Manning.
That being said, we feel compelled to post this follow-up on yesterday’s Yanks-Rays brawl.
Seems Tampa Bay GM Joe Maddon thinks those Damn Yankees are also Dirty Yankees:
“What you saw today was the definition of a dirty play. There’s no room for that in our game. It’s contemptible. It’s wrong. It’s borderline criminal. I can’t believe they did that.”
Can you believe those jerks? What’s wrong with them? Why they should—oh sorry, we got caught up in the moment and started a fantasy rant of our own.
If we’re lucky, Hank Steinbrenner will open his trap and make things even more interesting.
Oh, and here’s the ESPN clip (3m, 55s) of the brawl. What we like is the YouTube poster’s running tally of Rays RF and would-be linebacker Jonny Gomes’ ”you know”s in the post-game interview.
Where was Don Zimmer when the Dirty Yanks needed him? Old Pumkin Face could have thrown a few punches to help out.
That’s kind of stupid play on duncan’s part and he should have been thrown out of the game. Gomes needs to learn how to speak “Ya Know”. lol
Caesar–Could it be that Zimmer hung up the ol’ boxing gloves after th bout with Pedro?
Jason–And yet ESPN reports that Duncan “doesn’t know” why the Rays were as upset as they were . . . ya know?
