  2. Great quotes by the Steinbrenner family:

    “Show me a good loser and I’ll show you a loser!” — George Steinbrenner

    “We’re going to put the Yankees back on top and restore the universe to order!” — Hank Steinbrenner

    “How much money could we make if we replace the NY logo on the chest with a Gain detergent ad?” —Hal Steinbrenner

  3. I want to storm the Yankee front office
    Like Jesus at the temple
    flipping over tables
    Cast them into the street
    Drag satan’s imp from his place of dark repose
    To be sublimated by the Sun.

  5. Something to think about when talking about our "bigger, faster, stronger" athletes. Mick Tinglehoff was a center (as a some of you recall) for the Vikings from 1962-1978. He started every game in his career. Boone talks about a player getting "tired" after playing four games in a row. I can't even think of anything else to add to that. Devo.
