For example, Joe to Mike Francessa the same thing he told you yesterday...Mike didn't whine about being misled at all, and Mike is a somebody. Honestly, the immaturity you have shown is so much more pathetic than him lying to you. Its comical you don't see it that way. Pathetic.don't respond to me. Don't want to hear it.

Bone spurs are as minor as it can get, Pete's trying to stir things up AGAIN. What a shock. But to be honest, he's not being completely truthful like Girardi. Maybe I should start acting like Pete here every time he falsely reports something. Like back in July when he posted BREAKING NEWS in bold and reported Washburn had been traded to the Yanks. And now he's trying to get everyone all worried about a minor surgery. Wow. I'm glad Pete sets himself to the same standards he does Girardi. Wow is all I have to say.

And the internet is full of whinners and complainers! I'm pretty sure that's why they invented the internet in the first place, so people could find other people who like to complain as much as they do. Pete, just so you know, you are the best.

'Das it. the media likes to imagine that how managers "handle" the Big Bad NY Media has a material effect. but if that were true, then Torre would still be here, for example.

Often times, he adds his own opinions and/or sarcasm. This is a bad thing? I've been following Girardi and the Yanks all year. I for one have grown tired of all this secrecy with Girardi. Like the truth won't come out eventually. If you don't want to comment on an injury, just say "I don't want to comment". But don't lie. It's insulting to me as a fan so I know it must be insulting to the guys covering the team on a daily basis. Pete is great about giving us information as soon as he gets it.

Likely he chooses not to reveal certain types of information to his faithful readers for one reason or the other. I am guessig that Pete isn’t always completely candid with us.
