    And Roger will pound his fist!

  2. Doreen June 15th, 2007 at 1:04 pm

    Funny stuff. And a little scary, too!

  3. Mehdi June 15th, 2007 at 1:06 pm

    You know what’s better than 9? 10. Let’s do this!

    Some people have entirely too much time on their hands…

    Mets are in a slump right and the Yankees r on a roll. One more sweep comming up for the yanks. And we can sweep the Rockies and Giants. The Sox r slumping pretty bad and we will be at the top of AL East by the end of the month. There is no stopping the yanks now.

    Wow Abe, I didn’t realize you frequented BostonDirtDogs so much.

  7. BillyJoBob June 15th, 2007 at 1:30 pm

    He had his groin removed last year?

  8. Dave June 15th, 2007 at 2:01 pm

    what do u guys think it would take to get mark teixera realistically? With texas doing the way they r doing, Im sure they wouldnt mind trading teixera for some quality prospects.

  9. We Miss Paulie June 15th, 2007 at 2:06 pm

    Yeah, someone has way too much time on their hands. That’s no home video.

    Stupid.

  10. Chris in MA June 15th, 2007 at 2:18 pm

    Justin,
    It is actually all over the internet and not just on bostondirtdogs.
    I saw it on a baseball card site.

  11. Asst Manager June 15th, 2007 at 2:20 pm

    Where do some people get all this time to do this?

    Good to have trust funds

  12. murphydog June 15th, 2007 at 2:29 pm

    Here’s my guess: In order to give up Teixeira, the Rangers would be asking for a real pitching prospect or two and a body or two. Could that be Clippard and one of the good young arms, other than Hughes, plus some AAAA position player? The Yanks have very few good position player prospects.

    Assuming the yanks have the pieces, however, before this deal gets close to being made the Yanks will need to know whether Teixeira is amenable to an extension now and agrees to give the Yanks a window to negotiate a new contract with him. If Teixeira says “no” to an extension now, or they can’t reach a reasonably priced extension, then no deal.

    Dirt Dogs? I think the guy who produced it e-mailed me the link.

  14. Ross www.nyystadiuminsider.com June 15th, 2007 at 2:36 pm

    The Golden Girls line was hilarious!

  15. Huuz June 15th, 2007 at 2:46 pm

    bear with me on this, but what is the reference behind the “…Roger pounds his fist…” bit…?

  16. jennifer June 15th, 2007 at 3:04 pm

    This video is flawed. The guy playing Cash’s son looks too young. It should be Brian Cashman the III.

    :P

  17. Justin June 15th, 2007 at 3:10 pm

    I’d point out why Teixiera is really overrated but someone would come back with “MY UNCLE LIVES IN TEXAS AND SAW HIM HIT A HOMER WATCH THE GAMES STATEHAD,” so I won’t even bother.

    If we could package a deal centering around Horne or Marquez, I would be open to it. But nothing about Ian/Dellin/Joba should even be discussed.

  18. DP June 15th, 2007 at 3:11 pm

    Steinbrenner’s brain, preserved in a jar, still making decisions?

    The scary thing is, I could totally see that happening… ;)

  19. Michael June 15th, 2007 at 3:15 pm

    Nice, very nice

  20. Marc June 15th, 2007 at 3:16 pm

    What about Farns, DeSalvo and a Trenton prospect.

  21. Dr. Acula June 15th, 2007 at 3:20 pm

    Blah

    I give it a C plus.

    it was toooooo long and toooooo many replays of the dementia line.

    Plus, BatGirl Blog wrote a similar bit when the signing occurred. Only it was waaay funnier, as worked off of Suzyn’s call.

  22. saucy June 15th, 2007 at 3:21 pm

    agreed jennifer. thought the same thing.

  23. DC Yank June 15th, 2007 at 3:23 pm

    Lame.

  24. Cubs hater June 15th, 2007 at 3:30 pm

    GO Boomer! Alfonso is overrated.

  25. Justin June 15th, 2007 at 3:34 pm

    What do you mean a “Trenton Prospect?” I’d package up Ramirez (sorry, but the Yankees are never going to give him a proper chance), Marquez/Horne, and an infielder type for Teix.

    The infielder type would be mostly crap, but Ramirez should be pitching in the majors right now, and Marquez and Horne are both good solid prospects with high upside. I’d love to package it around Ohlendorf but he’s injured.

  26. Cubs hater June 15th, 2007 at 3:37 pm

    ….just like Robinson Cano, I should add.

  27. Drive 4-5 June 15th, 2007 at 3:40 pm

    Pete – thanks for the video. I loved the line about the Golden Girls LOL.

    Hey, it’s nice to see we have our sense of humor back. People should take it for what it is..a parody. It’s a lot easier for us to laugh these days.

    I live in Massachusetts and lemme tell ya…the Red $ox nation is getting verrrrrry nervous!

  28. Skippy June 15th, 2007 at 3:57 pm

    A little long and needed some pacing, but a good effort.

  29. SJ44 June 15th, 2007 at 3:58 pm

    I think you have to wait out the Teixiera stuff to the end.

    The price is way too high at this time.

    It has to be. If Jon Daniels (Texas GM) makes another bad deal, he is fired. So, he is going to look for a lot for him, if they deal him at all.

    The Yankees aren’t trading Joba or Hughes for him. Cashman has already turned that stuff down, according to Kay.

    Like Abreu last year, you just have to wait it out and see what happens.

    If the price drops, you dive in. If it doesn’t, you pass. The Yankees won’t blow up the system to get him.

    In the meantime, I believe Andy Phillips has to be considered for a callup. He is better than Phelps and can fill the bill when Cairo cools off.

    They can’t go much longer with Phelps. He is a disaster at first base and his offense, while constantly praised in this blog, is not as advertised.

    The bullpen? I gotta tell ya, the more and more I watch Edwar Ramirez, the more I like him. He has a funky pitch (a NASTY changeup) that could really mess up hitters.

    He’s not an 8th inning type of guy. But, he can help this team if they need another arm in the 6th or 7th innings.

    He would be the guy I recall (before Britton) if they either deal Farnsworth or another relief pitcher struggles.

    Ramirez could be a guy you recall after the AS Break who becomes almost like a trade pickup if they give him a shot.

    Now? No reason for it. The team is going well and you don’t mess with that by tinkering right now.

  30. Ricky Rios June 15th, 2007 at 4:48 pm

    Peter – if you Yanks sweep the Mets, I want you to shave your head…

    If the Mets sweep the Yanks, I will mow my lawn…

    Deal?

  31. #9 June 15th, 2007 at 5:05 pm

    That video was 3:30 minutes longer than it should have been.

  32. Green Tea Torre June 15th, 2007 at 5:24 pm

    I love how pete responds “Dirt Dogs?” as if he’s never heard of the site! I check dirtdogs every day, and I’m not afraid to admit it! It’s a great site, whether you like the sox or not (personally, I hate them). But if you enjoy reading about sports on the web and a good laugh, it’s worth checking out. Plus, half of their reporting is on the yankees anyway!

    For other sports parody, I like http://www.thebrushback.com also.

  33. Bob in NC June 15th, 2007 at 5:47 pm

    How long does it take to come back from a groinectomy?

  34. Bob in NC June 15th, 2007 at 5:52 pm

    Roger’s contract in 2057 will allow him to leave the Yankees to witness the christenings of his great-grandsons Kameron, Kasey, Koyote and Kabbage.

  35. Barbara from CT. June 18th, 2007 at 9:41 pm

    I loved this. Yeah!! Mike B. Good Work !!! Saw this first on funnyordie.com…..

  36. Kathy from MA June 24th, 2007 at 1:28 pm

    Hey that guy is really cute. Is he single? And the guy playing Brian Cashman Jr. wasn’t bad either. Super funny video, the best yet !!!!! I love FUNNYORDIE.COM.
