But not every Yankees game is nationally televised. And nor does everyone have MLB Extra Innings. It is interesting though that his at bats that will only tie Maris's milestone are aired. But if it's really that important, then shouldn't his at bats Monday night be shown too? If another game is on, a split screen of both games shouldn't be that cumbersome.

I’ll promise you one thing, if he played for the team with the best record in the AL, you wouldn’t be seeing these.

If he played for any other team in the AL aside from the Angels, it wouldn't get any attention.

AL record is 61. Yankees record is 61. All those other dudes have small balls and rage issues.

Have they been cutting in for Albert Pujols 700th HR?

BS. It's an AL record. It wouldn't make the slightest difference what player from what team did it, a 61 year old league record gets attention.

So laughably fricking stupid. Butt hurt Astro fans.


No reason to be butthurt. What I said is true, and you and everyone else in this thread know it. In fact, it’s been restated several times by others. Pujols just became only the fourth player in MLB history to reach 700 home runs, and I didn’t see nor hear of a single cut away to show it.

If you’re a huge Yankees fan, you will find a way to watch the game regardless of whether it’s nationally televised. You either have the MLB.TV package or there are streams out there you can find. Again, if you really want to see it live, you can make it happen.

The rest of us don’t give a shite, and our regular programming shouldn’t be interrupted repeatedly. When it happens, show a highlight immediately after it happens. I still won’t give a shite but it is newsworthy enough for an immediate cut-in highlight. Nothing more.

I guess they will wipe out the current NFL era, too. They sure didn’t mind getting amazing ratings during those runs and it brining baseball back from the doldrums of the lockout a few years prior.

What Judge is doing is special. He plays for the Yankees, so he is getting extra treatment, just like the Lakers and Cowboys. He is also getting extra disdain from fans like those on this board because he plays for the Yankees. It comes with the territory.

I’m not a huge Yankee fan, and I give a shite.

People are excited about Judge breaking the non-steroid era record. Yes more people care because it’s New York and not Houston. The Yankees are a much bigger deal than the Astros nationally, and that’s not ESPNs fault.

Really makes you go “hmmmm” doesn’t it?

It’s anecdotal evidence, but that’s all that’s needed to crucify players these days (along with anonymous twitter accounts and rumors)

If every player to ever hit more than 61 home runs was on steroids, what can we logically infer is true about Aaron Judge?

There is not even a whisper about him being on PED's or roids. Rest assured that if his body had changed in even the slightest way today's media would be all over it. If you have the "facts", share them. otherwise all you have is obvious bias. If he hits one more, his record will not have an asterisk next to it. No one else will be able to say that.

And they want to make sure it stays that way. It’s not just the Astros, either. It’s every MLB team that’s not the Yankees, Red Sox, and Dodgers. Cubs also, to a slightly lesser extent.
