- -Well after I thought I'd exhausted all the vintage Mike And The Mad Dog material I had, along came an unexpected find from the back-end of a DVD with this "Best Of Mike And The Mad Dog" program from YES on the day after the Yankees epic victory over the Red Sox in Game 7 of the 2003 ALCS. The opening of this program can be found here • Video but on this "Best Of" YES broadcast we get other parts of the program, namely the interviews with Joe Torre, Bud Selig and Boston writer Mike Barnicle. The latter interview is incomplete because the original recording ran out before the program was over.
-A timely rediscovery now that Aaron Boone is the new Yankee manager! As a Yankee fan, for me this event was the last night of Yankee greatness in the Torre era and maybe the last moment of innocence about Yankee history before the fall in 2004 when things would never be quite the same again.
2003 and 2004 are years that neither the Yankee nor Red Sox fan base will ever forget...really the last 2 huge moments in yankees red sox history..
Listening to this makes me miss my younger days that much more! The Great old days for sure.
old days? it was five minutes ago
I was so spoiled as a kid. The Yanks always pulled it out back in the day.
except for one huge, massive exception lol
I'm 59, and how fondly I remember 1998. I'd love to see that season cloned! 114-48 in the regular season, and 125 wins total for the season. 125 meaningful wins (defined as regular season or postseason). I thought they might win about 115 this year, but it wasn't to be. Like the man said, hope springs eternal. Posting 10-1-22.
Love the old mike and the mad dog videos! Need more
Joe Torre was always so humble. That is why he is beloved. The 2003 ALCS victory over Boston was epic. We all know what happened the following year and while it was crushing to Yankee Universe it doesn't take away from all he accomplished. He was the skipper that took us on that historic run beginning in 1996. He and those historic Yankee teams gave us so many great memories that we just can't hold 2004 against him.
Anyone who holds 2004 solely against Torre is an idiot. Jeter and Posada both had a terrible series at the plate. Mo had a blown save. Loaiza gave up the walk-off to Ortiz in Game 5. None of that was Torre's fault.
@@timmysullivan2515 I blame the collapse in 2004 primarily on (1) A-Rod's failure to drive in a key run in the 8th inning of Game 5 (2) Tom Gordon proving he lacked the guts to be a postseason pitcher (3) Terrible starting pitching options for Games 6-7 and a lot more. Granted, if Mo is just Mo for one inning all of these other flaws are never exposed and that's what hurts too about it all these years later.
Most humble yankee fan thing I ever heard, and I hate most yankee fans
@@epaddon Not bringing back Andy was the biggest mistake
@Fries Posting 10-1-22. Here's hoping the Mariners can win it all this year. A World Series sweep would be especially nice. I remember the '95 ALDS, in which the Mariners were on the verge of elimination of the last pitch (it was a winner-take-all game). Also a shame they couldn't have won at least an AL pennant in 2001, with a 116-46 regular season record. The Yankees (who else?) beat them 4 games to 1 in the ALCS.
Need more of these best Mike and the Mad Dog lol
Any chance you can re-up the opening of this show? Link is no longer available.
The 2003 World Series was an embarrassment.
why would you say that?
@@jeancarlosberasgoico8445 Yankees were the better team
@@greatestnitemare6626 yes but it was 2-2 going into game 5 and in the first inning his back went out and jose contreas cama in and got rocked. Yanks should have one gane 4 tho and that marlins team was very good. Becket, willis, burnet, and pavano who where all young guns. Add in pudge, Jeff conine, juan pierre,louis Castillo,Madden pretty damn good team and I'm missing some names.yes yanks should have one tho.
Not as embarrassing as what would happen the next year...
03 the yankees blew that ws ..
Jeff Weaver starting game 1 of the World Series for the Yankees LMAO
He shouldn't have been on the roster, period.
Aaron Boone the redsox hero...his basketball skills brought arod to knew York the 04 alcs and 3 world series to Boston...Boone the yankee Manger brought another ws title to Boston and 2 more redsox Eliminations of the yankees.
Jeff Weaver, Kevin Brown, Javier Vazquez, Carl Pavano, Jaret Wright, Kei Igawa, Michael Pineda, Sonny Gray, Frankie Montas. What's the common denominator?
That Brian Cashman should have been fired long ago, and would have if it weren't for the fact that Hal Steinbrenner has a mental block when it comes to uttering the words "You're fired!" (he's deathly afraid of ever being compared to his father).
@@epaddon I couldn't have said it any better myself
@@msu15 In 25 years of being GM, I can point to just TWO things Cashman did himself that resulted in championships. One was trading for David Justice in 2000. The other was taking advantage of all the expiring contracts after 2009 (Giambi, Mussina, Pavano) to get the top free agents that helped them in 2009. Apart from that his legacy has been anything but stellar and his decision to get Sonny Gray instead of Verlander is what cost them a title in 2017 that should have been theirs. That's the one thing I'll never forgive him for.
@@epaddon Yep, that Verlander decision was just criminal on multiple front. First, obviously they should have picked him up to put the rotation over the top(much like Cliff Lee in 2010). However, even if Hal set the mandate that the payroll could not increase, literally all Cashman had to do was put a waiver claim in on him since the Yankees had higher priority than Houston and EVERYONE knew that the Astros wanted him, and it would have forced Houston to give something to the Yankees to get him in a trade, even if it was a low level prospect. Instead, he sat on his hands. BRUTAL
@@msu15 And then typically after using the "luxury tax" as an excuse not to get the starting ace they needed and thinking once again he can find one off the scrap heap at a rock-bottom rate because he sees something in their sabermetrics (the whole philosophy behind Pineda and Gray), he then busts the budget for an injury prone slugger AGAIN with Stanton as he had done before with Ellsbury and would do again with Hicks. That Cashman has been GM even longer than Ed Barrow was with his track record is a disgrace (the 98 and 99 teams he inherited and have very little of his own fingerprints).
I want to hear the whole opening of the show of this day
Ranking the losses of the curse
1. Games 6&7 in 86. I don't need to explain why
2. Game 7 03. Only reasons why it wasn't #1 are because it wasn't a WS and what happened next year
3. 1978. That home run was a culmination of an atrocious choke job, worse than 2011.
4. 1948 Playoff. Sox were by FAR the better team, Parnell should've pitched
5. 1975. Reds were a better team, but still a shit loss.
Good stuff David, as a Yankees fan the worst was 2004 of course. The Sox were a much better team that year, it just didn’t show until game 4. I miss those days of the rivalry.
I wasn't around for it but maybe an honorable mention for 1949- arguably the best team of the Williams, Doerr, DiMaggio, Pesky era, one game lead, needed just one of two in Yankee Stadium, I think they lead in both games, lost both. I was only a year old in 1986, so 2003 was the worst IMO
Regarding the 1975 World Series.....when is Red Sox Nation finally going to acknowledge that Bill Lee is the guy who cost them a chance to end the curse 29 years sooner? Lee couldn't hold the lead in Game 2 and his eephus pitch to Tony Perez is the reason why the Reds turned Game 7 around, yet for some reason he always got a free pass from the media and Red Sox Nation simply because of his off-field reputation as a Counterculture icon.
yes how fun, rooting for the dominant team that buys their wins. Do you cheer for the Adults when they take on the fifth graders in basketball?? Do you pat yourself on the back for cheering on the 250 pound wrestler tie up the pastor's wife??The sun rises every day, do you confidently cheer that every morning "see i told you it was gonna rise again".. how boring..
PS. Yankee means "new englander". you support a team that is called the "New York New Englanders"
As a Red Sox fan, I love Joe Torre BUT I cant bring myself to listen to this.
Well as a Yankee fan I have to say though 2004 hit hard that was the BEST way the Red Sox could have broken the curse. I mean down 0-3 to the Yankees of all teams and coming back winning 4 straight plus another 4 straight in the World Series that’s taking all of those years of failure and completely wiping it out!
@@bloodlegion4874 Thinking back to being 9/10 years old again and watching those 14 games still gives me chills. Cried all night after game 7 in 03' (Red Sox fan) and I remember dreaming about Yankee stadium during that offseason; Legit dreamt there would be a rematch. Nothing in sports will ever come close to those two series
Clemens Pettitte Mussina Wells, how did they lose that series
Jeff Weaver-Game 4, alas. The deadweight who should never have been on the WS roster.
@@epaddon wells back want put in game 5 and Jose Contreras come in that was it and Marlins won that game and put them up 3-2. Yanks were up 2-1 in the WS and should have won game 4. Yanks should have won in 01 and 03. Then the disaster in 04 was the complete end of there Dynasty.
Josh Beckett
@epaddon weaver pitched a clean 11th inning .. that's why torre put him back for the 12th
2003 Yankees 'we didn't want any part of Boston
Beat boston
2021 Yankees literally demanded to face Boston in a potential tiebreaker.
Lose a winner take all game to them.
