I thought the booing of santana last year was ridiculous, they used to boo piazza as well. <BR/><BR/>nice thing about being a met fan is that our we have realistic expectations, it's all or nothing for yankee fans. is ok to hold your team to a higher standard, but our players can win us over. you guys are like a bunch of sicilian mafioso's, no offense to sicilian mafioso's of course. you have a grudge against someone and won't let go. look what you all have done to poor alex rodriguez. <BR/><BR/>you spend that much money on 2 players and they are expected to perform. especially when they are here to right the wrongs of the last 8 seasons. for 2 guys who have never been in this kind of market, with that kind of pressure, with the unforgiving yankee fan base? could spell trouble. especially if sabathia bombs again at the opening of the new stadium. <BR/>kmAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8624254435992330014.post-62421540886459146842009-04-07T20:58:00.000-04:002009-04-07T20:58:00.000-04:00KM, isn't your fan base the ones who booed Oliver ...KM, isn't your fan base the ones who booed Oliver Perez off the mound in an exhibition game this weekend? And the ones who booed Johan Santana on Opening Day last year? Talk about impatient! ;)<BR/><BR/>I agree with Symphony - there are knuckleheads in every part of the fan base; even Yankeedom. But really, a few sports radio callers aside, I saw more hysteria in the media today than from the fans. <BR/><BR/>LisaSubway Squawkershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04156896665605326549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8624254435992330014.post-33118879207996513812009-04-07T20:28:00.000-04:002009-04-07T20:28:00.000-04:00There is no point to Sherman's drivel especially s...There is no point to Sherman's drivel especially since these two All-Stars are notorious slow starters who always seem to get the job done before the season ends. Basically, he had nothing to write. <BR/><BR/>Every team has a bunch of fans who think they are entitled; makes the Yankees like all teams who have consistent success. Spare me. <BR/><BR/>Listen in on sports radio in any city you'll get morons. <BR/><BR/>I listened to the Rays announcers try some passive aggressive "Rays are getting dissed because they went to the World Series last year and they have to open the season on the road in Boston."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8624254435992330014.post-53164871239678203332009-04-07T20:05:00.000-04:002009-04-07T20:05:00.000-04:00Sherman has a point.

CC and Texeira are the cavalry. the saviors. they get no quarter if they stink things up the first couple of months. Especially if the rays and sox fly out of the gate. we know that girardi isn't likely to survive a slow start. <BR/>this next statement might seem like a dig against yankee fans, but i mean it in the nicest possible way. yankee fans are an entitled bunch who are notoriously impatient. geez, there were callers on the FAN today calling for girardi and sabathia's head already! <BR/>CC might be in for a rough going in yankee land. remember, he wasn't lighting it up for the indians before heading to milwaukee. a return to the AL might be tough for him, initially at least. keep in mind also that he pitched 253 innings last year, and 241 the year before. good luck with that.<BR/>kmAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8624254435992330014.post-85009148066025826112009-04-07T18:05:00.000-04:002009-04-07T18:05:00.000-04:00Great post, Lisa.
