NFL snowjob.....destroy tapes...silence Walsh. Walsh only took the tapes as protection....Mike gets it...but can't say it!

Walsh was paid off by the NFL...to protect the Superbowl legacy.Why do you think it took so long??? You'll never know the truth.....Dog get real!

Joba will stop and grow up when one of his teammates such as Jeter or Arod take a fastball to the head from an opposing pitcher.40 years ago Drysdale or Gibson would have knocked this guy to Mars!

I am already SICK of Joba. The guy have barely 30 innings in the major leagues and he is hailed as the savior. ENOUGH ALREADY

i think if the boom can return to the bronx ot will be a good thing i saw a article in the post today i hope it happens

David Wells ossified would pitcher better than Kei Igawa on his best day. So bottoms up! Bring back Boozy Boomer.

As I mentioned on air today, I love the even keel actions of Graig Nettles and Mariano, etc, but I think Joba will not be doing these antics 3 years from now. We have to give him some slack due to his age and his upbringing form his Dad who has instilledthe fist pump into Joba, butg again in time it will subside and he will be a real Yankee. Ray

How can you find out if tonights game will be rained out?

So at the games, when there is a full house at the Stadium and Joba strikes someone out to end an inning, how many people are so offended and upset at what Francesa considers to be a "classless" act that they start booing? Hmm, I've never heard a single boo from the fans at the game. And aside from Delucci, I've never heard any opposing player say they were bothered with it. Frank Thomas actually said he was ok with it and liked the kid's enthusiasm. Bottom line, he's not pointing at anyone in the face or screaming into opposing dugouts. And as much as Francesa would like him to be the same kind of person as Rivera, he's just not. They are two different types of personalities. Francesa needs to stop sermonizing like he speaks for all Yankee fans. He doesn't.

I can't wait until Manny takes one (two or three)of his(Joba's)balls for a ride, while Manny stands and watches it fly like a out like rocket. I wanna hear all of you yawkee fans bytch and cry about that. Joba is a punk who has done nothing and should act like it.

Leave Joba alone. So he greats pumped up when he does well. He brings a lot of life and energy to the Yanks! Go Joba go!

Due to years of sub-par baseball, weak lineups and lack of competitive showing vs the American League, Bud Selig has announced that every national league team has been outrighted to AAA.

If what Joba is doing is OK, then what K-Rod, Papelbon, Manny and Ortiz all do is OK too. Anyone who doesn't think all of Joba's antics are contrived, from his antics before his first pitch to his fist pump and twirl after his final strikeout, is blinded by their fanboyism.

I knew you wouldn't post my comment.

I come from a sport where after scoring a penalty kick goal the player runs around with his shirt off. Joba's celebration is fine. When team is jumping around home plate after a game winning hit no one complains, I'm sure the opposing pitcher sees it. Joba has the same celebration move for different players, that's all it is not a swipe at a particular player. Keep up the good work Joba.

The way both teams are playing I'm hoping the upcoming subway series will wake up thier intensity. As a NY sports fan I find both teams are underperforming. Lets wake up guys and give the fans something to cheer about. Feels almost underwhelming going in, hope when this is done the teams can feel electric again.

Nobody seems to consider what Joba's presumed INTENT is. You can't read anyone's mind but there seems to be a big difference between a spontaneous emotional outburst (overblown though it may be) and the sort of choreographed preening and gloating fromthe likes of Manny. I think it's the "let me stand here and admire my work" thing that he does that bothers people and that distinguishes that type of behavior from Joba's.

All you fools getting your panties into a twist need to get a life. All I care about is that he nails down the 8th inning. Yaankees is an obvious red sux fan.

The NLDS and NLCS playoffs should be renamed the LLWS (Little League World Series)

Many pitchers pumped their fist after striking out batters, including HOFer's. There are many present active pitchers who pump their fistte after striking out a batter including K-Rod, nobody can hit the guy. Joba need to pump his fist to get his energy going just like Superman need the Sun to get his energy and superpower.

he is reminding me more of Shockey (Giants), slef promotion, body piercings.. is he getting consumed with success? He's been unbelievable to date, but only 4 months.

Hey Joba--Just win baby!

Joba story is a non-story. I love the Yanks, but they are just a mediocre team now that really doesn't mentioning. It's a transition year and any honest Yankee fans needs to look to the future and stop kidding themselves that this year means anything. It's amazing how much is read into each win or loss. the end has already been written.

Dennis Eckersley did the same thing in 1988. Did Kirk Gibson show him up with the limp around the bases?

guess there is a pretty big divide on this. i love it. i think joba shows emotion and maybe if more guys on the team showed some emotion we wouldn't be a .500 team. maybe giambi and cano need to get emotional. maybe kennedy instead of hanging his head like a 2 year old should get fired up like joba. i dont care when papelbon or k-rod does it either. its not show boating. there's a difference between showboating and what joba does. get a grip and support your team!

Seriously why is everyone still talking about this Joba stuff? It's a non issue...move on.

Maybe Mike and Chris can get Tiger Woods to stop fist pumping. No comment on that guys? A little hypocrisy maybe?

Its too bad Joba will never come up to bat. That would be interesting.

Lighten up! What's the big deal - talk about something else!

Stupid? Learn English or at least how to opperate your spell check before making such comments. Also, if you are really an Oriole fan, well who's the dumb ass? Maybe you should look in the mirror.

Who cares if he pumps his fist. Can we move on please!!!

Who cares? Let the kid do what he wants, its really not that big a deal.

What is cashman supposed to say. " i made a huge mistake and i should be fired." Great reporting!!

Relax big guy. U r actually going to compare this punk to hall of fame players. Body of work counts and this guy has none. When manny takes him deep i hope he walks around the bases and it takes 5 minutes.

he's the biggest joke you've ever seen, where have you been hiding, in the same cave as Obama. These new generation players in baseball, basketball & football all do the same thing. Its becoming part of sports. If you don't like it, say you don't like it but to say Joba is the biggest joke then you need to get your head out of your ass because todays players all do that. Its a generation thing, I don't like it and there's not much you can do about it. Look at the stands in all sports and the fans act the same way. I tell you what, don't watch the Yankees, there's always Golden Girls on TV you mutt.

David Delucci is 34 years old and has hit 94 career HRs (Which good hitters do well before the age of 27). He has been on 7 different teams. He wishes he could have stayed with the Yanks for more the 1/2 of a season. Who cares what he thinks? More important who cares what Met fans think about the Yankee players? Joba Rules!

Why do Red Sox fans continue to post about their boy Roger Red Sox ? Yankees fans could not possible care less about him. Let it go. What ever he is now, he became during his 14 years in Boston. 14 years versus 5 1/2 you do the math or have someone do itfor you.

you're an idiot

IS he a little immature? Yes. But it looks like alot of Yankee haters are jealous bc he has been near perfect out of the pen. Joba was a big part of the Yanks getting to the playoffs last season. What did Reyes do to get the Mets there

where are the cries for him now. I think he's 5 foot 2 he belongs on a horse not in the majors!

Hey Mr. Orliole, Maybe you should learn to spell and form an intelligent sentence before you post on here.

I like the Mets but i'm not sure if they can beat the Reds. They couldn't beat the Pirates, lets see the outcome versus the Cardinals.

why would the yanks consider trading Joba for Wright or Reyes.. They're both bench players on a Yankee team.

Well the ways of NBA ref Tim Donaghy are still holdiong true in the NBA... to anyone watching the game last night saw the Hornets get pulled out of the game in the 4th because of the soft calls made against them. They got handcuffed and gave the run of the floor to Ginobli and Parker. All bets are off in the corupt NBA. The refs should have their stripes taken away and given Team jersey just so we know who has the 6th man at the start of them game to clear up any confusion.

I'll take Yoda over Joba. EVERYTIME!!!

I was right, you know nothing about baseball.

Typical teenager, always pumping his fist

Mooooose! On the way to 300 and the Hall.

To tell the truth. I do not like it when Joba does his antics. I watch Papelbon doing the same thing and I really hate it. But can you blame him? Dave Delucci claims that hitters don't get a fair deal. But who gets to do a home run trot to celebrate their acheivement. The pitcher does not have any outlet to let out the emotion. The only way they can express their emotion by fist pumping.

Delgado can't hit a fastball any longer, and David Wright will NEVER win a gold glove. He is horrible at the hot corner. Why not move him to first base where he can't make those wild throws or bobble so many grounders. IF her were at first base he would get less grounders and he would have time to recover on a bobbling of the ball hit to him. Only problem is we would need to get a third baseman. So how about Perez and Martinez (minor league prospect) for Bettimit. Maybe the Yankees would make this trade as Marinez is a very good prospect and we need Bettimits glove and bat.

joba is the biggest joke i have ever seen can you do somthing big before you jump around like

Let's go Ra ... Oh, nevermind.

I would give anything to see just one single day where the dumb ass Mut fans did not past the vile and stupid stuff that they post here. Did anyone else out there ever notice how stupid Mut fans are. No wonder everyone on this site seams to hat the Mut fans.

The Mets would never trade Wright or Reyes for a pitcher who still doesnt have a full MLB season under his belt. We'll see if he pulls a Joe Smith and falls apart in August or September after a summer full of relief appearances after Moose, Hughes, andKennedy average 5 or less innings a piece. Or maybe they could put him in the starting rotation like Hank wants....another 5 innins 6 plus ERA Yankee starter.

What an embarassment. The NEW yankees way!! Reyes got RIPPED last year but this bum is just emotional. He is sickening and i would like to see the so called leaders of his team show some leadership and tell him to know his place and pipe down.

Why are there so many hypocrites on this site. Papplebon has been doing exactly what Joba does since he came into the majors. Bonds Manny admire the home runs they hit, players jump up and own at home plate when they mount a 9th inning rally to win a game, Eckersly made a career of screaming when he closed out a game. Every team gets caught up in the excietment of a moment. It's good for the sport. So all of you holier then thou folks need to cut the crap. We love it when our team does it and you all know it. By the way I'm a Met fan and I wish all of you dummies would cut the carp out as you are all hypocrites.

You are correct, I'm the only intelligent Met fan here in Met land and I agree with you. I would trade anybody on my team for Joba except Santana. I would even give you Reyes and Martinez our best prospect for Joba in a NYC heart beat. But the Yankees would NEVER make that trade. I've watched him occasionally and he has electric stuff. Oh and by the way I love the fist pump. Did we forget the great Dennis Eckersly, he always did the same thing. Or how about Sprky Lyle or Goos Gossage or Papplebon or Fydrich or Hrobosky. The list goes on and on. Nothing wrong with emotion on the field. I wish we had a pitcher or two who cared as much as Joba does.

If Joba would have become this crazy last October in Cleveland it would have scared the bugs away and he may have been successful.

Really and I guess is becuase of class that Reyes was going to get his ass kicked last year by Ramirez of The Marlins. Reyes is a clown and a hot dog. He was told to tone down for a reason. I agree Joba needs to tone is down as well but its the pot calling a kettle black when it comes to Joba. No one talk about Beckett & Popelpone who both been doing for a while. Speak when asked Muts clown.

Lakers are going all the way

I agree with Delucci, Joba's celebration was bush and like a spoiled kid getting what he wants 2nd time around after failing the 1st. When he can do this in a playoff or world series game he may have something to feel good about. This is the time where Moose or Andy take him aside and teach him about Yankee Class. This guy has a lot of growing up to do. It's simply another example of kids getting too much to early in life. Delucci has every right to be upset with this clown who already looks goofy enough with that stupid cap style.

Mets fans should stop criticizing Joba's fist pumping and worry about their own problems. They can complain all they want when Joba shuts them down three days in a row this month.

I am so sick of ESPN's "kissing up to the sports stars" commercials. That latest one with Lebron James losing his chair in the cubicle takes the cake. We get it ESPN! We get it! We get it that your anchors and analysts are so close and chummy with the stars. We don't need to be reminded about this over and over again! You guys are the biggest butt kissers and you like to rub it in the fans' faces. That's the biggest difference between ESPN and SNY or WFAN or other networks. Less butt kissing and more sports coverage is what you need to do!

I'm a Yankee fan and I think Jeter should give his hose a rest and stick to baseball.

One indicator that a player has (in the past) used HGH or other performance enhancers are sudden chronic injuries; such as A Rod is experiencing. The athlete incurs injury because they expect their body to perform in the same manner off the enhancers as it did while on them, and thus overextends themselves beyond their mortal capability. A Rod is experiencing this now. I believe he was juicing.

I love the little world these Yankee fans live in ,The Yankee can do no wrong they can show up other teams and thats fine becuase they are the Yankees

thats why now one want to play here

all the way to the hall of fame

Yankees fans are a joke. Just shut up and watch your team get owned by the Red Sox again

There is no way the Mets would give up Wright and Reyes for Joba.

Comparing Wang to Koufax is like comparing kindergarten art to the Mona Lisa. If you ever chose Wang over Koufax you should get your head examined.

he didnt stop doing his corny dance because he grew up. he stopped because he stinks and has no reason to celebrate

delluci is nothing but a career BACKUP, he has no right saying anything about joba the rising SUPERSTAR

The met fans have never got over the greatest CHOKE in baseball history...this year they boo players as they are walking onto the field...

Mike is right...the Mets are the JV team in this town and always will be!

steve just checked and the new king is playing golf, not quaffing the cup, he the new king? martin has three rings/cups 2044 is the next year rangers every 50!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...you sound like a...bitter met fan...you wish Joba was on your team...

you yankee fans are alot like clemens, you all seem to misremember,so explain to us why when you see videos on yes of the yankee highlights of arod just standing there like a statue watching 1 of his a bombs yet its wrong for manny or big papi,explain to me why when we see on yes highlights melky and cano jumping and dancing and giving hi fives in the dugout its ok but reyes and other mets its wrong,tell me why when joba does his pump fist its ok but papelbon cant,explain to me why you can boo arod,giambi,moose,farnsworth,pettitte etc when they dont do well but you criticize met fans for booing santana or delgado,castillo,or heilman etc?why is it ok to get on girardi when he makes a bone headed decision to pitch to manny and again pitch to manny and keeps getting burned but we cant boo willie?its ok for posada to show up girardi when he wanted to take out a pitcher,you all have poor memories

are you kidding c'mon yankee fans april fools was a month ago, you all preaised and boasted right here on this forum how the yankees were going to dominate this season and how the 2 new studs would shut everyone down, now that they havent your all getting clemenitis, your all misremembering,get a grip, you all boo your players when they suck like arod and moose and giambi and cheer them when they do well your no better than the met fans you accuse of doing the same thing, you get on cashman and you got on girardi when he decided to pitch to manny and then again pitch to manny and moose got burned,again, then girardi shows up girardi when joe wanted to take out the pitcher,so yankee fans stop with the unfair one sided bias and get off the sox and mets cuz your just as guilty

please show back to back delucci's reaction and joba's. I thought the yankees are supposed to be the ones witr class-not this time

RED SOX DOMINATING AGAIN TONIGHT!...Yanks magic number to be eliminated from WILDCARD/PLAYOFFS is 123....TICK, TICK, TICK.

Joba pumped his fist! A Yankees tragedy! Mike and the Dog need to chill out. There is more than enough real immaturity in professional sports for them to complain about.

Please don't put out of town hockey games on your airways. It is a joke that is the programming you come up with. About 1% of your listening audience likes hockey. PLEASE

Another half-game victory for Moose. Yeh, at this rate he can get 300 wins if he pitches until he's 60, just don't depend on Giambi and Damon for support every time out.

After today's power surge I think Cash should call in Giambi and Damon and restructure their contracts. Surely they must feel under-appreciated.

i cant wait until he does it aginst the muts!!!!!!JOBA RULES

all the mets player do it,delgado pump his fist after a play,stop crying

Yea, A National League City? Hey, at least when we say we have 50,000 in the seats every night you can actually SEE the people at the Stadium. I think I'll puke the next time the Mets/Dodgers?Giants or who ever they think they are at Shea, announce a crowd of 46,000 and only 30,000 are really at that DUMP of a Stadium!

Even me, a devout Yankee Fan since 74, knows the Metropolitans are not dumb enough to trade Wright or Reyes for Chamberlian. I ask all of you why can't we just rout for all NY Teams? I sometimes watch and pull for the Mets, but when they play the Yanks (which they should'nt unless it's the world series) I hate them as much as the Sawx!

i have nothing wrong with joba's fist pump. he does it to get motivated and more players should be doing it

I guess steve never seen a football game and seen the guys doing a dance in end zone , I love it, go Joba

Joba, how dare you show that kind of emotion without first checking with Francesa and Russo don't you know athletes are not allowed to do anything without first clearing it with these two self proclaimed king and queen of the sports world

As a medical doctor who works with Doctors of Chiropractic your commentary on Chiropractor not only offended the thousands of DC's you also offended me and proved that you are uneducated. We will not have your station on in our clinic any longer.

Tell JOBA to keep pumpin it is pure emotion. he is gettin pumped up and lettin it go.. mike and dog need to shut up cause every yank fan i know from the age of 10 to 60 love it and cant get enough. this is the way the game is played now and were not goin back to the 60's mike sorry

You know it's a slow news day when Mike and Chris rehash a story that they have already beaten to death. We have been Joba pumped to death! Get out of your chairs fellows and find some real news.

wang better than koufax?? the mets would trade wright or reyes for him??? how'd wang do in crunch time last year, when it really counted?

Do you think the increasing nastiness of the average fan towards their teams and players has anything to do with the increase in media focus, fantasy sports popularity and need for instant information consumption that now that they have a vested interestthere is more at stake to the fan than a win or loss?

I really do not like what joba is doing out there. now listen yankee fans, do you like it when that wack-job papelbon goes crazy out there. NO!!! Then why is it OK with joba. In fact, doing nothing is even more powerful, just look at beckett after he gets a big strike out

Mad Dog-- How come you don't criticize the on field demonstrations Frankie Rodriguez or Johnathan Papelbon? They show just as much emotion as Joba, and are pitchers of the same caliber. The Yankees under Joe Torre did not show emotion, and in some casesit might have hurt them. These Yankees should show emotion...whatever happened to guts.

WOW, a post from a 15 year old 3rd grader! Yea i think the Mets would trade Wright AND Reyes for Joba...

Tis has nothing to do with anything but JOBA. What has he won?? He has upside potential but if he keeps his on the field antics up, someone may leave a bat in his ear!!! Don't start a fire you can't put out. Let's see if he does this when interleague play begins. Will he bat???

Only dumb fans boo Johan. The smart ones realize the savvy move the Mets made acquiring Santana, while the Yankees were content with Hughes and Kennedy.

Why is it all yankees and met fans cry when they lose and act like its the world series everytime the win. You guys should come to Connecticut and be on the front lines of the Yankee Redsox war were every bar you go in both games are on and fans from both teams go at it on a nightly basis. All you guys worry about is a stupid fist pump from Joba all i care about is 3 up 3 down thats all that matters. Besides in the sports world today its the way it is there all show bouts. Why are Mike and the Dog taking the whole afternoon on this nosence because you guys fuel it.

His name is Joba. What comes around goes around.

Paplebon is over the top on every out and not just a third out

Knicks need a coach like Mike D"Antoni to incorporate a running game the Knicks never had. He would bring an exciting brand of basketball to the Garden. He will also go after the foreign players that are having a big impact in the league. It's time forthe Knicks to come into the 21st century.

Now all the jealous Met fans can call up and criticize Joba's fist pump while the same buffoons go to Shea and boo Johan Santana. Keep quiet, you don't deserve to comment.

joba is a very passionate pitcher the other day when he blew the game he was pulling his hair out he doesnt show the other team up with the fist pump he does it towards his own dugout sometimes dog you seam like an idiot when you open your mouth

Hey Skippy or Saz or which ever numbskull you are, Yankee fans have never said that Joba is the second coming of Sandy Koufax. Chien Ming Wang is the second coming. Of course Wang's career winning percentage is much higher than that of Koufax. (check the record before you post something stupid) Joba is just a young pitcher with overpowering stuff. The Met's would trade anyone on their team, with the exception of Santana, for Joba. That includes Wright or Reyes. If you don't think I am right, you know nothing about baseball.

I like Joba's excitement. Better than the buisness like attitude the Yanks are know for.

Joba is still a kid who enjoys the game. Maybe you two supposedly adults need to grow up !

well its about time they show some emotion and i guess its ok manny and barry can stand there and watch the home runs, come its about time they show some emotion and he wasnt showing anyone up not like manny standing at home plate and just watching it go

This 10 year old boy needs to realize that he's never done anything in a big spot and he is buying into all the hype that New York gives him. Do something when it matters then i will care.

Whats the diffrance between pumping your fist whens a 6-3 game or a 1 run game. If you don't like then you don't like if it was a 2 run game dog would still be killing him. I can careless aslong as he pitches well.

I never want to hear about Reyes ,Reyes shows more class then this clown

This guy acts like he been around for years and so does the fans .Grow up

When and if Posada comes back and Giambi is still hitting below 200 how about releasing him and put Jorge at first to save his arm

joba is so successful at work and you idiots aren't so shut the hell up!!!!!!!!

who cares if Joba pumps his fist and shows emotion. Players have been showing their emotions for years. Get over it!!!

he defends him because the 2003 Marlins beat his Yanks. He thinks the guys who beat his team are the salt of the earth: Angels, Boston and Marlins.

Works for me

Too bad Joba does not have to come to the plate in the AL. You can bet that he would end his childish reaction when he strikes out a batter when the game is not on the line. You can't coach class...you either have it or you don't !

How does this mean they cant get shut out once in a while ? And is a shut any worse than losing 6-5 ? A loss is a loss.

Any team losing to Mess-ina should be ashamed of themselves, he has softball stuff. It looks like something from a cartoon. TIGERS ARE HUNGARY FOR SOME YANKEE PITCHING THIS WEEKEND!...IT'LL BE UGLY!

If there were ever a candidate for defensive replacement, he's it...

Is there a Met fan anywhere in this world that does'nt envy the tradition and glory of the New York Yankees. I don't think so. The Yankee fans have no problem with the Mets or their fans except when we have to defend ourselves from the jealousy and hatred Met fans have for the Bronx Bombers.

new york was , is , and alway`s will be a national league city. as far as copying ebbetts feild that what fred wanted and it is still easier to get to in a safe area and plenty of parking everything yankmee stadium does not have

You lost the series to the dodgers, how did you dominate them

You would think he is the next Sandy Soufax. Can he first pitch a few years to see what he's made of and not lifted to a high plateau without any track record???

Bean does treat Omar like his little B---h Boy. Omar is to busy trying to bring in latin players with no sac that won't speak to the media or the team. Omar should be fired. Maybe he can GM a latin american team in the winter.

It's time for the Mets to make a move and bring back either Bobbie Valentine, or Robinson. Omar, wake up, and smeell the roses, Willie, aim doing nothing for the Mets and the players do not respect Him any more. Make the move Please.!!!!!!!! Bring someone who can put back the fire in those players Asssss.!!!!!

Watching a Yankee game is like watching paint drying on a wall, it's like slow motion. Old guys trying to be young again, trying to match players from teams of 8-12 years ago, it's pretty sad. Their outfielder is horrendous, aside from Wang, their starters are so BAD...I mean Petitte is still decent for 5 inns at times but that's about it. And what gets me is that their fans actually believe they have a chance to, number one make the playoffs (LOL) and second actually win with those starters ....DREAM ON DUDES! Have another Corona or Bud.

Does anyone think that Brian has aged? How old is he and how bad will he look if they keep getting swept at home?

Darrell Rasner and Kei Igawa go this weekend. Where is Carl Pavano when you need him?

He's still second rate compared to Jimmy Rollins.

Six girlfriends listed in the Maxim Top 100. That's also not counting all the Miss Universe winners that he threw away!

You won 90% of your titles 50 years ago !! Pipe down..you'll win again if you keep spending...Relax

don't listen to met fans about what they are saying regarding Jeter bcoz they know that Jeter is a great player overall, on top of that, Jeter is like a MLB ambasador,and maybe someday he will be a commissioner or even our USA president.

Giardi is really doing a bang up job. He sucks. Bring Torre back

a Yankee's hat is known everywhere in the world. Met's hat is unknown.

As far as Delgado for Jacobs, At that time it had to be done,and every Mets fan out there approved! Nady for Perez and Hernandez, Again not a bad deal at the time. On Paper! Now they both look like mistakes, butWho Could've known!!

Do you read what you write before you post it? You sound like an idiot. Please stop wasting space on the site, your comments are moronic at best.

Evan, that homerun hit by Dave Dellucci off of Joba the other night will go down as Terry Pendletonish or Yadier Molinaish, because the shock of Joba failing was the final blow to an already bludgeoned psyche for the entire Yankee organization as far as their beloved Gerneration Tre goes.

And you need to read a book on how to spell the words ninth and esteem.

The Mets have the best team going into Spring Training, because of the Santana signing.
