Translation for all you A-Rod watchers….

November 14, 2007

Quote from Alex Rodriguez on the subject of rejoining the Yankees.

“Prior to entering into serious negotiations with

I have a foundation with the club that has brought us
comfort, stability and happiness.”

Translation, the market for a moody slugger with a
history of choking in the post season isn’t as strong

In honor of the late great Johnny Carson…

But on a cheerier note, can we have a show of hands from all those who had Hawaii and Kansas as the year’s last two undefeated Division 1 football teams?  Both of you?

And with Tampa taking Devil off their names to be simply the “Rays”, how long until 0 and 7 Seattle becomes just the “Sonics?” 

The city of Miami is seeking permission to demolish the Orange Bowl.  The city commission is expected to approve the request, even though they were disappointed to learn the Dolphins would not be inside.

And the writers’ strike is having an effect  on presidential campaigns.  If it keeps up Hillary Clinton may have to resort to reruns of her canned questions.
