    Jorge....

    Jorgie Porgie Puddin' Pie
    Had to bat ninth, so he started to cry
    C'mon Jorge, there's no "I" in Team
    Especially when you're hitting .113

    Tek's getting old and he doesn't pout
    Catches one game, sits the next few out
    Can't hit anymore, but he knows his place
    So grab some pine and shut your face.

    Now you want to quit the team
    because the coach is really mean?
    You want to play, but you just sit
    Uh... maybe that's cause YOU CAN'T HIT?

    Here's an idea that just might work
    So you don't look like such a jerk
    Give another team a whirl
    Maybe the Richmond Flying Squirrels??

    In Double A you would be the man
    Catch a few games, work on your tan
    And when your skills, they start to lessen
    You could catch some bullpen sessions

    Face it Jorge, your time is near
    to hang up the spikes, call it a career
    You know old catchers never die
    Except the Yankee ones, when they fly.

    Yogi, Howard, and old Bill Dickey
    Even Catfish, if you want to get picky
    Their time behind the dish was done
    And they gave it up when it wasn't fun

    So take a lesson from the greats
    Among Yankee backstops where will you rate?
    Pack up the bags and shake your teammate's hands
    And walk away from the game a man.

    This topic just supports my theory that Red Sox fans are the coolest fans in the country.

      A tiny tad bit harsh when you mention the flying part, but a pretty awesome poem.

        Pretty creative there though Catfish wasn't a catcher.

          Ya, that had me scratching my head...

          I find it interesting that Posada replaced Girardi as the C in NY and now Girardi is the manager when it's time for Jorge to go.

            while I love this poem because I HATE the yanks, the flying part was a bit over the top... as for ol' Jorge I wouldn't put him in the complete washed up category just yet. He has never been an amazing batting ave. guy anyway. I bet he climbs back to around the .250 mark before the end of the year if they continue to get him abs.

                    Since when did winning a ring 2 years ago NOT matter? It took boston like 80+ years to win 2 rings..it took jorge 15 years to win 5

                      Coming from a METS fan..what have you done for me now should be a question you need to ask your entire squad

                        The thing that stood out to me was the reference to Thurm. It was unnecessary to bring up his tragic death, and then to use it the way it was used... Wow.

                        And as many others have said, Catfish Hunter wasn't a catcher.

                          The guy probably wasn't a Redsox fan in 2000 so I don't really take what he says too harshly

                            Even though hes hitting under .200
                            At least the Yanks have some comfort
                            He has more Homers and RBIs
                            Than your 2 catchers do combined
                            So when it comes October
                            And Jorge Posada hits a homer
                            Redsox nation will be watching
                            And forgetting about all this ****-talking

                              I can atleast admit that my team sucks. By the way we're not talking about the Mets.

                              Jorge probably will be in the HOF IMO. But right now he is horrible and needs to figure out how to accept he's just not that good anymore. Do whats best for this team. Its not '96 '97 '98 '00 or whichever years they won in anymore.
