And the NY jails aren't country clubs like in Arizona; no internet access. I suppose that's why no one blinked at the admission of ticket scalping. It's the least of his crimes.<BR/>I've seen some stuff on trains--- fights; homeless women begging for money and spitting on the person who told her to get off drugs; but the most memorable was the homeless guy who took off his shoes and socks and reveled in the disgusted reactions of the other passengers to the stench of his repuslive feet. <BR/>If your son's that big, teach that boy to pitch Matt. Please tell me he's lefty. If so, you'll have a big leaguer on your hands. $$$$$Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18498935.post-46432497742291825172008-07-28T14:20:00.000-07:002008-07-28T14:20:00.000-07:00Small world.Spied a nerd in a Superman getup on Sa...Small world.<BR/><BR/>Spied a nerd in a Superman getup on Saturday, as a matter of fact.

That line will be available in archives shortly (for a nominal retrieval fee), if you care to revisit it. <BR/><BR/>G, <BR/>I'm sure this "knock down drag out brawl" had everything to do with your Dbax gear and nothing to do with your personality ;-)<BR/><BR/>I will concede the Derby likely had more of an inclusive, festival atmosphere than a direct NYY/Dbacks tilt, although our stands were still dominated by NYY fans/shirts. <BR/><BR/>In my experience, young teens (boys anyway)in visiting garb are targeted for plenty of verbal grief inside Yankee & Shea. Besides, my 14 yr old is 6'2", 170 lbs and has a mustache - not exactly off limits to most Bronx warblers, if any of them deciphered the logo or actually gave a crap.<BR/><BR/>J, <BR/>The first thing crazy people learn on the NY subway is to at least keep their hands to themselves.

I don't think it had much to do with the shirt to be honest. When I was in New York last summer, I was on the subway (a full car during rush hour) when a somewhat delirious man pulled down his pants and started touching himself inappropriately. No one flinched. No one screamed, yelled, gasped, nothing. Everyone on the car went about their newspapers, books, iPods as usual. It must be a New York thang.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18498935.post-50683798309166371522008-07-20T01:21:00.000-07:002008-07-20T01:21:00.000-07:00Good god, I thought this website was on the DL lik...Good god, I thought this website was on the DL like half our roster. Thanks for joining us.<BR/><BR/>In June 2007, my wife and I went to NYC for a Dbacks' games against the Yankees. While we were only there a for a day and a half, we received a fair amount of criticism for our Dbacks gear. Once we got to the game, I was thrown into a knock down drag out brawl with a drunken Yankees fan implying some not so nice things about myself and the Dbacks. All in all, NYers were light-hearted and friendly. Yankee fans, on the other hand, should be inside the stadium when it is torn down.<BR/><BR/>I think it is just easier for Yankee fans (the ones who like to curse and be rude) to act out against adults rather than kids. Generally speaking, a 13 year old with a Red Sox cap could probably sit through a Yankees game without too many people saying anything to him.Glynnjaminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00995085470801154062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18498935.post-12932332876363581542008-07-18T16:21:00.000-07:002008-07-18T16:21:00.000-07:00Welcome back.Although I'd sort of got used to read...Welcome back.Although I'd sort of got used to reading-"Big Brown accelerates like Deion Sanders" and I will miss it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
