For Labor Weekend…
31 Aug2008
Thought Obama’s speech was pretty good. Think he nailed it. However, after years of listening to President Doofus, Al Gore and John Kerry – my bar might be a bit low…
I can’t tell anything about McCain’s pick for VP – but it is a really short walk between gutsy and desperate. Geraldine Ferraro anyone?
My thoughts go out to the Gulf Coast. My poor, poor New Orleans about to get beat down again. I’m glad I got to see it three years ago – only two months from the first devastation.
How about that Carl Pavano? As soon as the Yankees are out of contention – suddenly he can pitch again! That whole team needs to be sacked and re-built.
Tomorrow begins Ramadan for all Muslims (and non-Muslims living in Muslim countries). Ramadan is a month of fasting and spiritual renewal. For all those of the faith – Ramadan Mubarak.

Maybe Mr. Pavano would like to sign a 4 year no pay contract to balance out the welfare program he has been on since 2005.
I agree that the team needs to be dismantled and rebuilt from within. Take a few lumps for a season or two and then go toe to toe with the Sox and Rays.

Sure – let new kids play in teh new park. And tell Pavano to keep going to the old one…

What they really need is a healthy starting staff, some younger everyday players that can hit (I love Melky, but .190 since May??) and a little fire in their guts, like Paul O’Neill used to bring.

What ever happened to their farm club? Outside of Joba, where are the pitchers? Where are the “all around” ballplayers who can hit and field? Next thing you know they’ll be making offers for Manny or Barry Bonds.
