Hello Carl,

I understand that life can get busy, but I wanted to check in to see if we can provide you with information about our ticket plans, group offerings, and suites for this season.

There are a variety of options to choose from and we would love to see you at the stadium supporting our Bronx Bombers.

Could I interest you in a quick conversation to explore this further?

Thank you very much,

Tell Hal Steinbrenner to open up his wallet and add another top starting pitcher and third baseman. Then we can talk.

Carl Weitz: You are doing the Lord's work.

Carl, don't forget to add the part about lowering beer prices.

Also, let them know that if they need a real GM, you are available for the right price.

Oh and a suite for IIHIIFIIc.

JM said...

Carl, this was great.

Greg Allen? Really? Nice guy and all, really fast, but he's not Cody.

God bless you, Carl. I agree with LBJ about doing the Lords work. We must think of something really grand and symbolic if we get together this year for the IIHIIF HUCKLEBERRY ROUNDUP. Something that will catch their attention.

Carl J. Weitz said...

Thank you, thank you!

Everyone here at IIHIIF will receive positions with the Yankees. I intend to make the Bloated Front Office even more bloated. Sharpen up your resumes.

I am ready, Carl! A pizza in every pot! Cadillacs for everyone! Blowjobs and rainbows! I am ready to go serve the masters and get this bloated organization back on its feet.

I had another idea. Now that we’re all gonna be working at the Yankee offices, instead of cocktail hours on Friday, maybe we could have Randy Levine food regurgitation contests every Tuesday?

HoraceClarke66 said...

Great job, Carl! I, for one, am willing to do my part and bloat up even more than I already have to make this work!

HoraceClarke66 said...

Hey, did they ever call? Or you just gave them the devil's phone number there?



HoraceClarke66 said...

This is the truly stupid thing about Cash and HAL. Obviously, NOBODY is bidding on Monty, Snell, or Cody.

Yanks could swoop in, likely sign all three for what passes for a song these days in baseball, then peddle Verdugo to someone for another decent pitcher.

Instantly, both men would be proclaimed as geniuses. Cashie could doubtless get Bob Klapisch to write another paean to his stable wiles ("They whisper..."). The Yanks would be an instant contender. The Brain could pretend as though they had plotted it all along.

This is how insanely rich—or money crazy—these two are. The prospect of being publicly called brilliant in the biggest media market in the world holds absolutely no allure for them.

I'm glad the Yankees are asking Carl for advice. Carl is very astute and really knows baseball. Thank you, Carl!
