Comments on: Low standards at Fenway Park http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2007/04/21/low-standards-at-fenway-park/ A New York Yankees blog by Sam Borden, Chad Jennings and the staff of The Journal News Mon, 22 Mar 2010 04:05:34 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Jay http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2007/04/21/low-standards-at-fenway-park/comment-page-2/#comment-27470 Jay Mon, 23 Apr 2007 19:49:23 +0000 http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2007/04/21/low-standards-at-fenway-park/#comment-27470 Just came across this link off of soxfan/yanksfan. Man thats a lot of excuses for a Boston sweep. Calling Sox fans hate spewing drunks and including the sox broadcast network is a little ridiculous...YES Network is one of the most biased company line spitting broadcasts ever...seriously. Any Yanks fan can admit it, NESN is the same. They root for the home team, as per their fanbase. And if its only April, why don't one of you put in a call and remind ARod its April when he's prancing around the basepaths like a pinstriped ballerina. "Look NY do you love me now??? How about now...pretty please?!" Just came across this link off of soxfan/yanksfan. Man thats a lot of excuses for a Boston sweep.

His partner/ puppet couldn't be objective if he tried. The producers at NESN promote the hate. They even have the 2 female hosts of their sports news program spew the propaganda. It's pathetic. Can you imaging the backlash if the Yankees agreed to buy new uniforms for any youth sports league that bans "Yankees" as a team name??? Sverlyn- Remy’s not the problem.

Remy gives a much more balanced take on the Yanks and the game than ESPN ever does Actually, the other night I had the choice between watching the game on ESPN and NESN- ti was a no brainer.

Besides, this blog is not part of the stories he submits to the newspaper for printing, so he can say whatever he wants. Secondly, Beckett is going to win the Cy Young? Um, no. But that was a good one. The 2003 season is over. Actually, the AL should just rename it the "Johan Santana Award" until further notice until his reign of dominance ends -- much like the NL could have done for Maddux and Randy Johnson during their respective streaks of sheer dominance. Of course, you can add Clemens to that list as well. Hey, I’m in favor of calling a spade a spade no matter who says it.

You’re right, but it’s just Peter trying to compensate for the fact that he’s actually a red sox fan by throwing out gratuitous insults to try and suck up to the Yanks fan base ( who in essence pay his salary)

The "Fan of the Game" on their tv outlet (NESN) the other day was an Idiot who threw a piece of pizza at another drunk. The pizza tosser got publicity and the team promotes the angry mob mentality. Their minor league affilliate in Lowell,MA actually has a promotion where any youth league that does away with "Yankees" as a team name get free uniforms. This is snactioned by the Boston Red Sox themselves. The Red Sox Nation from top to bottom is a classless, angry lot.
