Who Is Our Daddy? - George Steinbrenner, that's who. Thankgoodness the Yankees have him. Big Daddy, George Steinbrenner,is a Yankee fan's delight. As a Yankee fan I love that so manyother fans hate what George has done and continues to do. Hegets the players that he needs. He pushes forward to get anotherchampionship for his Yankees. I can visualize George sitting inhis office making calls to see if the superstar that he sohighly touts is close to signing a Yankee contract. When theYankees have been in need of a pitcher they get Roger Clemens,or Mike Mussina, or Catfish Hunter, or Randy Johnson. Some ofthe top pitchers in the game. If it's a slugger they need Georgebrings the best to New York. Reggie Jackson, Dave Winfield, GarySheffield, or Alex Rodriguez will don the Yankee pinstripes.Having the best for the Yankees and their fans makes all thedifference. We know as fans that our team is doing whatever itcan to bring in a championship. And when all is said and done -w...

Cheaters - So What Else Is New? Baseball has seen it's fair share ofcheaters. And let me define what I think defines a cheater.Simple: someone that breaks the rules. The list of cheaters inbaseball has been legendary. As long as the game has been aroundthere have been cheaters. Throughout baseball history there havebeen many, spitballing, Emory board using, salve applying,sandpapering, file mashing, greenie popping, cork stuffing,baseball betting, and steroid using ballplayers. I'm sure I haveleft something out. As much as I would love to see The Gamebeing played in its purest fashion of a level playing field thechances are slim to none of that happening. As long asballplayers play the game there will always be people lookingfor the upper hand. It's about getting the edge on your opponentor creating the edge for yourself. It's rampant today. Thestakes are high, for the professionals and the kids that watchthem. Oh give me that edge. I can hear a kid thinking tohimself....

Thu, 26 Jan 2012 00:17:56 -0500

Florida State Seminoles will go a long way.
