Jokes of the day
Any Red Sox or Yankees fan that tries to rationalize their team's flame job in the playoffs. The top two payrolls in baseball shouldn't combine to win all of 2 postseason games.
Now it will be interesting to see who does the bigger implosion this offseason.
Will it be Boston by letting Johnny Damon walk, trading away ManRam, and perhaps most importantly letting Theo Epstein leave town as a free agent?
Or will it be the Yankees where not only are three big contracts expiring (Kevin Brown, Bernie Williams, and Hideki Matsui), but also GM Brian Cashman's deal is up and Joe Torre could be replaced as manager. Lou Pinella is a free agent after all and it's not like King George hasn't flown off the handle before after a similiar melt down.
Some other jokes:
- OLN blacking out Sidney Crosby's network TV debut in an attempted cash grab to extort cable and satelite providers into moving OLN onto basic tiers and thus move more cash into their coffers.
- Not switching Game 1 of the ALCS to Thursday and moving Game 1 of the NLDS up a day to allow the Angels to get one day of rest prior to Game 1 versus the White Sox.
- The NFL's tuck rule. I know it's a homerific call this week because the rule took a safety away from the Redskins, but the rule is just as dumb today as it was when the Pats got lucky versus the Raiders a few years back.
