Finally Back Where They Belong

Out trade bait fodder are now resting comfortably where they belong; in Scranton, Pa.


The season changers from last year, Phil Hughes and Ian Kennedy have both been dispatched to lead our AAA team's starting rotation.

They will soon be joined by our $52 million Japanese folly, the 2009 spring training phenomenon; the  unhittable Kei Igawa.

Those of us who know the "lies and deception" strategy of Brian Cashman, following the lead of US Senators, Minority Leaders, Larry Summers, and every recent CEO at Lehman, Goldman and AIG, realize that a new third baseman and a new centerfielder are soon to be on their ways East.

There is no way we enter the season with gritty, hard-working, hustling, talented players with relatively little major league experience.

We are looking right now for the next Ken Phellps and Gary Sheffield.

Some teams have a motto for building a champion in today's depressing economy; faster, younger, cheaper.

The Yank's go their own way; older, finished, expensive.

Stay tuned.

Alphonso, please go back on the anti-depressants. Everything will be all right. You'll see.

Fonz,

Love the new look.

You might try for even more cleavage.

You all,

That is my sister without her pork-pie hat.

I was experimenting from a different location, and could not locate my own photo.

I will soon be back on my medications ( am currently in transit to Canada to purchase said pharmas ), and "return to normal."
