Who Ya Got: 100th Anniversary Edition- More Historically Significant Event: Titanic Sinking vs Fenway Opening
So first instinct is to say Titanic sinking right? I mean the incident killed over 1,500 people. But then again, what would Boston’s culture be like without Fenway park? Yawkey Way, the word “Wicked,” Ben Affleck- it all somehow goes back to the existence of Fenway Park. Yeah, but… the Titanic killed over 1,500 people. This isn’t George Costanza’s Andrea Doria with 46 measly casualties we’re talking about here. This is like the entire bleachers section of Yankee Stadium just getting wiped off the face of the earth. Tough call.
Anyway, today is the first game of the season between the Yankees and the Red Sox. Some nice throwback uniforms to celebrate the occasion. I really hope Granderson dons the throwbacks all season long. He just looks like a player from the 1920′s. I think it’s the way he wears his socks, but every time he does that weird, torso bent over run around the bases, I can’t help but picture one of those sped up, black and white clips of Gehrig busting it out of the box. But the guy is coming off a 5 hit, 3 home run night. He could wear a fucking Montreal Expos uniform and get away with it right now. Curtis, so hot right now. Curtis. Clay Buchholz vs. Ivan Nova today- should be a good one to kick off the series. Let’s get it done, boys.
P.S.- How much of a bitch was Rose?
Jack got off easy if you ask me. You know that marriage would have been night after night of Rose selfishly star-fishing the bed and hogging all the covers.
…who cares if it could have fit two people, it would have sunk. a door doesnt hold 2 people’s bodies. stupid picture.
I kind of wanted to see Titanic 3D to see Winslet’s nice little rack in three dimensions. Don’t sleep on that topless scene!
Titanic sinking made world headlines. Nobody cares about fenway outside of boston
KFC i see your little twitter on the side saying there was never a pre injury Nomar? Are you fucking retarded? And Nomar before his fall with 5x the player Jeter was. Like, embarrassingly better
Strasser, not to be that guy but you know Granderson looks nothing like a MLB player from the 1920s
When has there ever been 1500 people in the bleachers at Yankee stadium? NYY fans can’t even fill up half their stadium forget the fucking bleachers
according to hittrackeronline.com, granderson would have hit a grand total of 1 home run last night w 2 flyouts. dude hits bombs. and the one that went out might have even been robbed. dude hits bombs
Did the Negro League have uniforms back in the early 1900′s?
Peytonsucksballs the bleachers st yankee stadium are almost always filled. The seats that don’t fill up are the insanely expensive seats right behind the plate. The yankees haven’t had an attendance under 40000 in years
Hey mnajjar66 you Yankee asshole they only had 36,800 just on Wednesday.

Wow foot in mouth. tickets sold they’ve been over 40000. Apologies
Yeah and there capacity is 50k, so they can barely fill up to 80%; usually less. Whoop-de-fucking-doo loser
Really bitching about attendance at Yankee stadium? I’m a red sox fan and clearly the Yankees have great attendance every single night. There the fucking Yankees. New York is one of America’s great baseball cities. Fuck the Yankees tho
PeytonSucksBalls more people at Fenway every night
More people at Yankees stadium than Fenway every night*****
yes exclamation points, but sox have a sell out streak thats close to a decade long, so you gotta believe they fill another few thousand up nightly
And I honestly don’t know if they could, if they got a new stadium like the yankees I don’t think as many douchbag pink hat fans will care to go to a game.. Ya know? They go now because IT’S FENWAY. 100 years old who gives a shit
umm, lets not sleep on the fact that there are over 8 million people in NYC alone, never mind the surrounding areas, compared to the 600k in Boston. Even giving the Yanks the benefit of the doubt that the city is split in half between the Yanks and Mets, there should still be over 6x the amount of Yanks fans within a short distance of Yankee stadium then there are Sox fans in Boston, yet their attendance is not that far off. Who wears the pink hats?
Peyton, the only part of the stadium that is filled eveynight are the bleachers. Totally false statement
100th anniversary of Oreos beats the shit outta either/both…
