Yankees Midseason Report Card

Here are my grades for the Yankees players!

Jorge Posada: C-  Since Posada has been injured he has struggled a lot, unless he starts hitting soon the Yankees are going to have a problem.

Jose Molina: D+ Molina isn't the greatest on the offensive side, but is very good behinf the plate, if he could hit a little better he would a great backup catcher.

Jason Giambi: A- Giambi is hot, he has hit great and has shown he can play first base by showing off the glove every once and a while.

DALE JR. HAS WON

It has been a while, but he has done it DALE EARNHART JUNIOR HAS WON A RACE.

He won today at Michigan! After fighting with Jamie McMurry for the lead until a caution by Sam Hornish with 3 laps to go. Then the race started up again and then on the final lap a caution gave Jr. his first win in over a year.

Congrats Dale Jr. and especially on Father's Day, great for him!

THE FLYERS ADVANCE

THE FLYERS HAVE BEATEN THE CANADIANS 4-1 IN THE EASTERN CONFERENCE SEMIS.

A recap of Game 5, a very exciting game with a couple of questionable goals. After the first peroid 2-1 Habs. A goal by R.J. Umberger!! Then at 8:15 of the 2nd period, the Habs now lead 3-1. and I am getting a little worried now. Then one of the questionable goals was a tip-in goal by Mike Richards at 14:02 of the 2nd, the goal was reviewed and ruled a goal! Then goals by Umberger (again) and Scott Hartnell give the Flyers a 4-3 lead after 2. Finally, it's the 3rd period, Flyers are winning, but the Habs fight back and score a goal to tie the game. Then at 16:56 of the 3rd Scottie Upshall wins the game for the Flyers and gives them a 5-4 lead. Mike Knuble adds an EN goal and the Flyers win 6-4 against the Habs.

How 'bout the MOOSE

Before yesterday's Yanks, I thought Mike "The Moose" Mussina was going to not do that good.

I turned the game on late on ESPN2 and they were in the 5th or 6th inning and I see the score 2-1. Then when ESPN showed "GameTrak" (a review of what happened in the game so far). I see Johnny Gomes and Bobby Abreu both hit HR. Next, I see Mussina with whatever IN pitched and only 1H. I was amazed!

Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson will bounce back

Gordon and Johnson both have good crews and crew cheifs and will still do good this year and make the Chase, I don't know if either will win it, but I know they will start to win races. Their crews need to make a little changes on their cars and they will easily win races and SOON.
