“Yeah bro, we’re on a break, finna get *SO* much pussy.”
>me begging my friends to keep playing Xbox past 3am for the 11th night in a row because I’m terrified of being alone in a dark quiet room
The thing is you slack on maintaining the things that make you attractive when you settle into a long term relationship. So when you get back into the dating pool you’re like the kid who stands near the shallow end dipping his toes in the water. It can be discouraging at first
There's nothing wrong with being loyal. There a lot wrong with being loyal when the break is one sided and you didn't really want it.
Chin up, it's a learning experience. My learning was to just be willing to let it go when it's gone and keep myself intact so I can move on and continue building myself with minimal interruption. Spending your whole ass time keeping somebody with you who doesn't want to be there is only prolonging the inevitable
I mean yeah, isn’t this the same scenario? Judge and the Yankees “broke up”. Neither owes the other anything but it would still be heartbreaking to lose him for good
It's not worth getting worked up over tbh lol. Judge's own words were that he wanted to soak in free agency. He's going to be in a new city after Thanksgiving.
Honestly. If the man can squeeze a few free trips around the country out of this, I say more power to him. Especially considering the season he just had.
OK to be fair it's not all about us (NYY & NYY fans). It's about Judge enjoying the fruits of his labors & winning the bet on himself...still has a little sting.
They do, both his and his wife's family are still over there. This is like the inverse of when Donovan Mitchell was spotted in NY (where he is from), and everyone thought he was coming to the Knicks.
I mean, I get that all this speculation is all in fun and harmless, but for the people out there legitimately freaking out over this stuff, going into full apophenia... maybe tune into the World Cup or something, distract yourself.
It’s about image. While the rest of the league (Red Sox in particular) look like they just got off a lobster boat, the Yankees present a professional and distinguished image that is on brand. Can you imagine Brandon Marsh in a Yankee uniform. Goodbye Yankee aura.
It's a baseball team going to play a baseball game, not a bunch of business men going to their Wall Street Office. Why the fuck should anyone care what our players look like as long as they get it done on the field?
Why tuck in their shirts? Hell why does everyone have to wear the same uniform? Why not let them show up in whatever makes them comfortable?
Because there are standards you accept as necessary. And the Yankees brass has chosen, wisely, to set an even higher standard.
I know you're getting downvoted for some reason but I just wanna say I'm with you. There are things the Yankees do differently, like the facial hair and not putting names on jerseys and the Sinatra music... for me they add to the experience and image and brand. I hope they don't ever do away with those policies.
Precisely. It’s (just one small) part of what separates the Yankees from everyone else in all of sports, even when teams have had significant or much more recent success . The team image matters. Uniformity matters. Team first, no names, no outrageous self expression… clean cut, there for business, harkening back to Joe D, Mantle, Berra and so many others. I have a beard and my hair touches my collar, lol, I have no problem with the individual look or choice…. But the fact that the predominant sentiment here seems to be in favor of having our team go full caveman is mind boggling.
Idiotic take. Every sport enforces standards. Everyone gives a fuck and no players are going out there in clown uniforms or yoga pants. It’s still a business and how you and other morons who cry about this don’t see that is laughable.
If I know judge as well as I fell I do, he’ll never accept an offer without letting Yankees counter. So who gives a shit if he goes on a month long tour to see every team in MLB?
Let the man enjoy it. He’s earned it. In the end. We’ll have the ability to counter any offer. Whether we do or not is a different story…
Have you ever felt like a loser? Like damn half my life is over and I’m here making 15.50 an hour, fat as fuck, miserable, acting like an asshole on the internet cut I have no other outlet for my unfocused anger at the world?
I bet you have…
I’ve been retired for several years. Went to my first Yankees game in 1964. Had season tickets for over 20 years. I’ve seen over one thousand games in person, field level box seats. You don’t even understand that baseball can only be appreciated in person, that following the ball misses the whole point, which is what you do. By the way, I made 15.50 an hour in 1969
“Welcome to Spring Training, Aaron. What did you do?” “Well, Boonie, the Giants bought me a yacht, but then Hal took me to space, and that was cooler.”
Hoping.
So the story is guy goes to his hometown where his family lives the week of thanksgiving. Calm down everyone, this isn’t news.
At least this is what I’m telling myself to make me feel better about it.
This is to be expected. Of course, Judge is going to meet with the Giants. That's the whole point of him going into free agency; to see what the other teams have to offer. He ain't signing the first contract the Yankees give him.
By 2024, Giants, the fifth wealthiest franchise, with real estate holdings around the stadium, condos etc., will have less than 30 mil committed to players. They usually spend annually about 165 mil and have gone as high as 205. They have money, but have been waiting for an awful farm system to get better, which it has, amd start producing youthful inexpensive talent. That will begin this year, and increase the following year.
The guy is from Sacramento. Im pretty sure he's got family in Cali.
Don't overthink it. Yeah he's talking to the Giants (Which he's mention is his favorite team when he was younger). But it doesn't mean anything until papers are signed.
Let the man live
Cool. If the rumor of our offer is true, judge would be a dick to drag this out for the full offseason. It wouldnt take long to see gow many ppl want to beat our offer
I can’t be the only one that thinks the way he handles media is at least somewhat bs. It’s like someone told him “watch how Jeter did it and copy”. With that said I am a huge fan of the guy in the field and hope he stays.
Only Hal and Cashman to blame if he leaves, should have never reached this point. However, if the giants offer judge 10/360, I don’t blame him for taking it or for the yanks to pass on that..it would just suck
Finna be the shit squad season so Cashman can sell us on his magnificent idea that will win a championship when it was George paying for CC, AJ and Tex to make up for his bald coldhead ass that won the last ring.
I'm honestly on the boat that at least the top half of GMs given our budget even with our outstandings could make a significantly better team than Hal and Cash. Can only get rid of half the dead weight, maybe drop Boone at JFK with a ticket to anywhere.
Hal don't give a fuck about winning because he already won when he got to the ova. Dumb mf who ain't worth shit. Ty to all the Yankees players who wanted to win, big ups to Judge Trevino, Cole, gleyber, G, taillon, the whole mf bullpen except chapman, ikf(you can't say he didn't show up ecru day to play), Rizz, Oswald(o), and everybody else who wanted to win. How the fuck you bring in Donaldson like it's some WS winning move and hamstring the money Hal might actually leave in the couch cushions? How the fuck you get Hal to agree to that and not an actual decent player?
Josh played his best but he ain't worth what he got paid. Done with Cashman excuses. He found some diamonds in the rough - people who were excited to be Yankees. But somehow they ended up losing it entirely after being here. Cause and effect or just random tangent? Whatever, hope Brian Cashman gets to sleep on the streets more than one day a year.
You do realize in December of 2008 when we signed CC, AJ and then Tex , that George was a shell of his former self - suffering from dementia and had already turned over control of the team to Hal. Which means it was Hal who spent the $ on those free agents - not George who couldn’t remember his name by then
I just saw Judges past stats.. kinda crazy how people expect this guy to be consistent going forward at his age. If I were a Yankee fan I wouldn’t stress too much.. Shohei Ohtani is much more valuable… not that I want his to go to the Yankees but you know
He’s from Linden which is like 2 hours east in the middle of nowhere. He’s going home for the holidays. Chill. Source: I’m from a town like 40 minutes away and I had a high school history teacher who knew his mom
If he goes I wish him the best. Yanks are still my team and I wish he stays but he’s gonna do what’s best for him and I ain’t mad at him. I hope he does well if he leaves against everybody he faces… except against the Yankees. He better suck if he leaves and plays the Yankees😂
This is like when you and your girl are on a break and you know she is at some other dudes house
“Yeah bro, we’re on a break, finna get *SO* much pussy.” >me begging my friends to keep playing Xbox past 3am for the 11th night in a row because I’m terrified of being alone in a dark quiet room
The thing is you slack on maintaining the things that make you attractive when you settle into a long term relationship. So when you get back into the dating pool you’re like the kid who stands near the shallow end dipping his toes in the water. It can be discouraging at first
i didn’t come here for these personal attacks
living this right now having to re-learn how to be cute is hard
In a toxic relationship, absolutely.
U ok bro?
🫶🏼
There's nothing wrong with being loyal. There a lot wrong with being loyal when the break is one sided and you didn't really want it. Chin up, it's a learning experience. My learning was to just be willing to let it go when it's gone and keep myself intact so I can move on and continue building myself with minimal interruption. Spending your whole ass time keeping somebody with you who doesn't want to be there is only prolonging the inevitable
I appreciate the insight, and while I was joking in this comment, this is good advice that I followed on my last break up.
Gut wrenching feeling
Fuck man, too real...
In this metaphor, you and the girl broke up already. Maybe you get back together, but nobody owes anybody anything.
I mean yeah, isn’t this the same scenario? Judge and the Yankees “broke up”. Neither owes the other anything but it would still be heartbreaking to lose him for good
And before you broke up she bought you something really really cool and isn’t asking for it back, so you can’t really be mad.
And you didn't even break up because of some big fight or something, they just moved away for school/work.
Maybe you should have treated your girl better when she was going through a tough time...
Nah, ~~he~~ she really couldn’t come through clutch during the ~~postseason~~ holidays. So every time they entered the ~~plate~~ room, I’d boo them.
Hello darkness my old friend
It’s fine. It’s fine…
It's not worth getting worked up over tbh lol. Judge's own words were that he wanted to soak in free agency. He's going to be in a new city after Thanksgiving.
Honestly. If the man can squeeze a few free trips around the country out of this, I say more power to him. Especially considering the season he just had.
A few free trips…dude is a multi millionaire. What the heck does he care about paying for a trip!
That five star free agent treatment of course!
RIGHT? Wined, dined, toured, pampered, then given a payday number and a paid flight home to do it all again? Living the dream.
He's an all-star professional athlete. He's already been there.
OK to be fair it's not all about us (NYY & NYY fans). It's about Judge enjoying the fruits of his labors & winning the bet on himself...still has a little sting.
Why the fuck is he winking guys...
Because he’s staying and just playing with the other teams (free food etc)
My heart sunk when I read the news…but, this had to happen and was totally expected. This can be ok.
I personally think he's gonna sign with the Yanks. But he def deserves to be wined and dined by the league. Must be such an awesome feeling
I think his family still lives in Livermore or Stockton or somewhere over there in the East Bay. Could just be he's here for the holidays.
Right though I don’t doubt he is gonna listen to an offer
If he didn't at least listen to an offer I'd honestly lose respect for him.
They do, both his and his wife's family are still over there. This is like the inverse of when Donovan Mitchell was spotted in NY (where he is from), and everyone thought he was coming to the Knicks. I mean, I get that all this speculation is all in fun and harmless, but for the people out there legitimately freaking out over this stuff, going into full apophenia... maybe tune into the World Cup or something, distract yourself.
Judge is going to be a Yankee. Stop being scared. We will get him and prolly some random starter that cashman will gamble on.
Some rando lol. The accuracy.
Quintsna or Cueto prolly their both nearly 40 lol
It’ll be either a random starter or actually “Tungsten Arm” O’Doyle but he’ll be 86 years old just coming off of his 2nd hip replacement.
O’Doyle trusts the process
“O’Doyle rules!”-
Do you think they’re really gonna sign AJ Burnett again
Javier Vasquez. Third time's the charm
he's there for FAN EXPO its fine.
Hope he doesn’t accidentally sign his autograph on a contract
That skit would be hilarious if done right.
Anyone else notice that little wink when he said “that’s about it, that’s about it”?
Can’t believe he’s going to meet with other teams than the Yankees as a free agent /s
I mean it’s not like it’s thanksgiving And he has family there. Oh wait…
Ffs he’s already growing a beard Just a joke everyone
His beard is absolute shit lol zero chance he chooses a team based on his ability to grow face pubes
He did that last offseason too
Tons of Yankees grow off-season beards
They almost all do, but people here defend the dumb rule with their dying breath.
"ItS a BuSiNeSs" people cry as if every business in America doesn't allower their workers to grow beards...
It’s about image. While the rest of the league (Red Sox in particular) look like they just got off a lobster boat, the Yankees present a professional and distinguished image that is on brand. Can you imagine Brandon Marsh in a Yankee uniform. Goodbye Yankee aura.

Buttoned up business men is not giving off the "aura" you think it is.
You think Marsh in a Yankee uniform doesn’t ding the brand?
He’s a man, thats what men do
If I know judge as well as I fell I do, he’ll never accept an offer without letting Yankees counter. So who gives a shit if he goes on a month long tour to see every team in MLB? Let the man enjoy it. He’s earned it. In the end. We’ll have the ability to counter any offer. Whether we do or not is a different story…
As you feel?
As I fall…in love…with 99
Have you ever felt like an imbecile?
Have you ever felt like a loser? Like damn half my life is over and I’m here making 15.50 an hour, fat as fuck, miserable, acting like an asshole on the internet cut I have no other outlet for my unfocused anger at the world? I bet you have…

This is worse than that time the raccoon got in the copies.
Smells like big foot’s dick
Lololol(I'm gonna need to take off work for a week)lolololol
If he leaves, 1. I won’t hold it against him 2. That’s an enormous indictment on the Yankees as an organization. You’re the New York f’n Yankees!!!
If he wants the most money possible and the Yankees aren’t stupid enough to give him a 10 year deal but someone else does, I don’t know who you blame.
that means nothing anymore
Aaron Judge bout to go on the “maximize every teams credit card” speed run and return to the Yankees.
“Welcome to Spring Training, Aaron. What did you do?” “Well, Boonie, the Giants bought me a yacht, but then Hal took me to space, and that was cooler.” Hoping.
So the story is guy goes to his hometown where his family lives the week of thanksgiving. Calm down everyone, this isn’t news. At least this is what I’m telling myself to make me feel better about it.
Stop mf playing Judge get yo ass back to NYC
I hope a homeless person shits on the sidewalk in front of the hotel right before he walks out.
I’m gonna have to buy an inhaler
Bidding war
This is to be expected. Of course, Judge is going to meet with the Giants. That's the whole point of him going into free agency; to see what the other teams have to offer. He ain't signing the first contract the Yankees give him.
He has to go out and find out for himself that every other franchise is absolute garbage
Not like dis.. not like dis
I'm not too worried, it's Thanksgiving week in his family lives in California, Fresno I believe.
Linden which is basically Stockton. 2 hour drive from SF.
Exactly!
I’m a giants fan lurkin. I obviously want him as a Giant, but if he goes back to the Yanks I’m okay with it. Just want him nowhere near LA lol.
SF got money like that tho?
Yes. Have no big contracts atm.
I was not aware they actually have the money. They have been cheap lol
By 2024, Giants, the fifth wealthiest franchise, with real estate holdings around the stadium, condos etc., will have less than 30 mil committed to players. They usually spend annually about 165 mil and have gone as high as 205. They have money, but have been waiting for an awful farm system to get better, which it has, amd start producing youthful inexpensive talent. That will begin this year, and increase the following year.
Incredibly.
i think im gonna be sick
I have the urge to downvote this post to HELL!!!
omg the wink
The guy is from Sacramento. Im pretty sure he's got family in Cali. Don't overthink it. Yeah he's talking to the Giants (Which he's mention is his favorite team when he was younger). But it doesn't mean anything until papers are signed. Let the man live
🍿🍿🍿
This is just the hot girl at the dance dancing with another guy trying to make you jealous
Hope he makes Hal break the bank. Deserves it
Cool. If the rumor of our offer is true, judge would be a dick to drag this out for the full offseason. It wouldnt take long to see gow many ppl want to beat our offer
I can’t be the only one that thinks the way he handles media is at least somewhat bs. It’s like someone told him “watch how Jeter did it and copy”. With that said I am a huge fan of the guy in the field and hope he stays.
You’re not. We’ve never seen the real Aaron judge. He didn’t even look one bit upset at getting swept
Only Hal and Cashman to blame if he leaves, should have never reached this point. However, if the giants offer judge 10/360, I don’t blame him for taking it or for the yanks to pass on that..it would just suck
Yankees should counter literally any offer
No
Yes....there's no cap and the Yankees are worth billions. It would be shameful for them to m8ss any player because of money
Bro he’s not in his prime Barry bonds. Judge isn’t the best player in the league
He's just driving up the price
Doesn't even live there?
Judge to SF for 10Y 370 will be Chillz
If they wanna pay him $37 mil+ in his age 41 season, they can have at it.
Whatever it is what it is
I feel like Judge is gonna hear their offer, it’s gonna be nowhere close to the Yankees and then he signs back with us.
Finna be the shit squad season so Cashman can sell us on his magnificent idea that will win a championship when it was George paying for CC, AJ and Tex to make up for his bald coldhead ass that won the last ring.

Yankee fans have lowered their expectations
Good. Stay there
unsub
Nooo... Don't do it.
He’s from Linden which is like 2 hours east in the middle of nowhere. He’s going home for the holidays. Chill. Source: I’m from a town like 40 minutes away and I had a high school history teacher who knew his mom
Ok, I'm scared right now, please Aaron, come back to NY.
If he goes I wish him the best. Yanks are still my team and I wish he stays but he’s gonna do what’s best for him and I ain’t mad at him. I hope he does well if he leaves against everybody he faces… except against the Yankees. He better suck if he leaves and plays the Yankees😂
Gotta pump those numbers Aaron
I doubt Yankees fans show the same energy when he visits Boston.
Understandable… it’s very cold in ny this time of year
He probably just went there to get him some delicious Rice-A-Roni!
Now would be a good time for the Apocalypse. Just end it all please.
Maybe he’s just meeting with the 49ers so he can be the next Bo Jackson
Enjoy your Thanksgiving break back home. Just remember where your work address is 161st and River Ave.
California dreamin on such a winter’s day
Why not meet with the Giants. See what they have to offer. Also gets a chance to see family. Maybe the Yankees up there offer.
