**Mariano Rivera APPRECIATION thread** vol. So who's the 2nd greatest closer ever?

[venom lyrix]

close this now.

Just now to the media

Mariano: "I am coming back. Write it down in big letters. ... I'm not going out like this."

Rivera: "I love to play the game. To me, going out like this isn't the right way."

 

[pauliepeppas]

He judt said hes not going out like this and is definitely coming back

 

[DeadsetAce]

great to hear that he plans on coming back. wouldn't have been right for it to end like this.



btw...*DEAD* @ the fact that arod hit the ball

 

[andoneflip]

Glad hes coming back. Hes the best closer period.

Best news we could have heard of the situation. My Facebook status: Mariano Rivera: "I am coming back. Write it down in big letters. I'm not going out like this." ... RE-ENTER SANDMAN 2013

 

[darthska]

Definitely good to hear he'll be back.

Scratch that: definitely good to hear him say he'll be back.

Obviously, I think we've seen the last of him, hence the thread. He still has to actually go through w/ the surgery & rehab, then come back after all that time off.

Not trying to be a Debbie Downer. Just my opinion. Hope I'm wrong.

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

A-ROD didn't hit the ball, stop looking to bring my man down. I believe Nix was the one hitting, AROD was next to the cage and reacted first.

[runningfishy]

It was only fitting for A-Rod to be the one saying "Oh, my God, Oh, my God..."

I felt relieved (no pun intended) when he said he was coming back next season.

Hopefully he's able to come back... I'd hate to see him go out like this.
