Suzyn Fell Into a Cactus

Discussing the schedule in today's fourth inning, John mentioned the recent trip to Arizona. Suzyn chimed in, "That's where I fell into a cactus." 

A quick Google search of the terms "Suzyn" and "cactus" produced no answers, only questions:

  • Has she mentioned this horrific incident on the radio before? 
  • Are any details public? 
  • Was alcohol involved? 
  • Where were the Yankee beat reporters? 
  • Is journalism dead?

Absent a picture of Suzyn's ghastly episode, here is Lindsay Lohan v. cactus.


And here is the star of the Untold Tales of the ER episode, "Naked Man Falls Into Cactus."

Has the statute of limitations run out? Can the cactus sue her ass?

Please explain to me why Girardi did not pinch run for McCann in the 8th. I mean this is ridiculous. You've got to score on that fly ball

I'm with you, ceeja. Plus: giving Old Man Rodriguez the green light on a 3-0 count? When does performance outweigh salary and status on the Yankees? Answer: never.

IT'S LIKE WE LOOK FOR WAYS NOT TO SCORE!!! .... GREEN LIGHTS ON 3 - 0, NO PINCH RUNNING LATE IN THE GAME WITH A SNAIL RUNNING, NO SACRIFICING TO MOVE RUNNERS OVER WITH NO OUTS (TWICE, TODAY)....BASE RUNNING BLUNDERS, DOUBLE PLAYS, STRIKEOUTS WITH RUNNERS IN SCORING POSITION, YOU NAME IT, AND WE DO IT, TO NOT SCORE...... IT'S ALMOST HARDER TO NOT SCORE LIKE WE DO, THAN SCORE!....I MEAN, CAN'T PLAYERS MAKE CONTACT EVEN BY ACCIDENT?....NOT OUR GUYS!...... SORRY TO SAY THIS BUT OUR OFFENSE SUCKS, AND BAD (IF NOBODY COULD FIGURE THAT OUT ALREADY)....BLOW IT UP....RELEASE AROD....GET THE BEST PROSPECT POSSIBLE FOR BELTRAN, TRADE CHAPMAN FOR WHAT BETTER BE A TOP NOTCH, CAN'T MISS PROSPECT, (IF THERE IS SUCH A THING WITH CASHMAN PULLING THE STRINGS). I COULD EVEN LIVE WITHOUT MCCANN IF WE CAN GET GOOD VALUE...... JUDGE MUST COME UP....GARY SANCHEZ MUST COME UP.....WHAT IS THERE TO LOSE??? WE CAN'T HIT ANYWAY, SO LETS TRY THIS....WE HAVE TO DO AWAY WITH THE 40 YEAR OLDS, (SORRY, EVEN BELTRAN- BECAUSE NEXT YEAR WILL BE AN INJURY RIDDLED ONE FOR HIM, GUARANTEED).....

JUDGE DID IT AGAIN TONIGHT....2 HITS INCLUDING A HOME RUN....I THINK THAT MAKES IT 8 HOME RUNS IN 13 GAMES......THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME..... AND IT SHOULD BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR A PROMOTION....AND SOON.

I just watched an episode of " Justified" where a woman entertainer was singing, " JACK AND COKE" in a bar. How cool.

I immediately had several.

The beauty of giving ARod his release:

1. Makes room on the roster for Judge.
2. Beltran becomes full time DH.
3. Buys good will of Yankees fans everywhere.

Also, Red Sox set good example with their willingness to give up on Rusney Castillo. We can afford to eat our mistakes as well as they can.
