Mariano Rivera SUCKS!!!

[PC]

He came in with the game tied 3-3 in the 10th, after the Yankees hit a 3-run homer in the bottom of the 9th to tie the game and he proceeded give up two doubles and a two-run homer, putting the Orioles up, 6-3 in the 10th.

Not what he used to be at all. 1st ballot HOF most definitely, though.

Well, heck, if the "lowly" Nats could mount a comeback off him last year, he couldn't be that great, now could he?

And imagine that...Rivera gives up a save attempt.  I wonder how many "Overrated" threads he got throughout his career.....

there is a LARGE different between Rivera and Cordero. Rivera was much more dominant for much longer.  Chad had a dominant/perhaps lucky first half of 2005, and has been spotty and debatable since
