    Not to be a complete dick, but that monument is a bit absurd.

    I guess Jeter says it best:

    “It was big,” Jeter said. “Probably just how The Boss wanted it. The biggest one out there.”

    Would Steinbrenner have liked that idea?

    “It probably was his idea.”

    he turned the team around and is the most iconic owner in all of sports

    Woo. Brackman and Montero are coming up to get a taste of the big leagues. Not going to be playing but still will be cool to see them there.

    kinda like what the phils and every other big market team do but i guess they all get a pass cause it's fun to bash the yankees. least the steinbrenners actually put money into the team and don't pocket the money like small market teams.
    Ron: I just don't feel like going out tonight

    Huge couple runs there. They don't all have to be line drives

    Good game by Hughes. Too many walks. But good game nonetheless.

    What's the magic number now? It's probably still too far. We should be closing in on the Red Sox to be eliminated.
