BORING!!! Let's see a team that hasn't been there in a while and isn't top in the AL or NL in payroll (both NY teams are tops in their respective leagues. The payroll of the Yankees isn't even funny). Back on topic, this ESPN "stat" barely has any relevance to the GN'R world. Did ESPN even mention SCOM? Or was that your inference? Can you provide a link to the article so we can read about it?

Tom Glavine's "entrance music" (Played before the 1st inning of his starts) is SCOM. If all goes well I should be rocking out to it in the second game of the division series.

Off topic, I know, but....
I hear this sort of grumbling every year from those that are not Yanks fans (or, rather, hate the pinstripes). ?Here's my problem with the statement: ?If the Yanks aren't in the WS, the ratings tank like nobody's business. ?So, while people bemoan that they want "someone different" in the WS, when that "someone different" actually shows up (ie: Chicago and the Astro's last year), nobody actually cares enough to watch the games.
And you can bemoan payroll disparity til you're blue in the face but the fact is....nobody in MLB cares. ?Because the Yanks pay enough in luxury tax/payroll taxes to keep all the owners very happy. ?Ditto, pretty much, with the Mets. ?Since when did it become a crime to be successful because you're willing to pay top dollar for top talent? ?Hell, that's what the Heat did getting Shaq. It's what Detroit, Dallas, Pittsburgh, and St. Louis do in the NHL (and what the Rangers TRY to do). ?It's what big business does every day.

I think he's saying that is the direct quote he saw on Sportscenter: "Last time the mets won a division title was in 1988, the number one song at the time, sweet child baby!"
They makes historical references like that alot, probably Stuart Scott.

Yeah, I'm a HUGE Mets fan as well and last night was a lot of fun watching them celebrate.....It is turning out to be a great year w/ Chinese Democracy, GNR tour, The Mets and hopefully a subway series.....the rest of the country doesn't want the subway series but fuck em'...I want another crack at the team with the 5 ZILLION DOLLAR PAYROLL....

Twins
The Twins are a nice story. ?But without Liriano's arm, and with Radke's arm questionable, even if he returns...they're going to have a tough time against a team like the Yankees or Oakland. ?I think they might win their division, more because of Detroit's total collapse than anything else, but they're gonna have a tough time getting to the series, I think. ?If I had to pick any AL team OTHER than the Yanks to do it, the Twins would be my sentimental choice. ?I'm just not sure they have the HEALTHY tools in the toolbelt to do it. ?I mean...the Yanks took 2 of 3 in NYC (and, as things stand, the Yanks would have Home field)...though neither team was at the top of their rotation (with the exception of Garza's start).

The only team in the AL that can beat the Yanks in a playoff series are the Twins.....That starting rotation and their bullpen is ridiculous....

Against the rest of the AL? Yes, I agree.
Against the Yanks, who match up particularly well with the Twins Bullpen....they've been, at best, ordinary.? In 3 games, their ERA is about a 6.80.? Not great.? Their starting pitching CAN be impressive (well, Santana is lights out..but OTHER than him), but the only real playoff starter the Yanks have seen (Garza) they roughed up quickly.? From what I've seen of the Twins (both bullpen and starting rotation) is that they have the most trouble against really patient hitters who will go deep into counts.? That's the very definition of the Yanks.
Anyway...we should continue this conversation in "Fun and Games"...here:
