Fired Up 

Post#1 » by NickAndersonsBack25 » Tue Jul 7, 2009 9:39 pm

what's your take on these Yankees getting fired up?

Tex showing some rare emotion (for him) earlier in the season (when he got hit by Padilla, hard slide into second to break up a BP, which ignited a rally and win).

Girardi has been tossed 3 times this year. Yankees went on that nice winning streak after one of them (where Cervelli jacked his first career HR right after it)

Jetz getting fired up after yesterday's game because of the bad (but close in real time) call yesterday.

What's your take on it all? One of my complaints about Torre was that he was always too laid back. there are benefits to that, but it always seemed like the team lacked fire, so i wanted him to stand up. I think that's why Girardi was brought in over Mattingly.

ok this forum isn't very fired up itself, so i'm guessing the fired up attitude of the yankees isn't a big hit ....

i LOVE it....its nice to see that passion

the other thing that bothered me with torre is the lack of retaliation on HBP, i think giardi has done a better job
