This was the big finish? This was your touche to the Red Sox, Phillies, et al. Take that league, we just signed……. Rafael Soriano? Certainly, Rafael Soriano is no the answer to combat the likes of Carl Crawford and Adrian Gonzalez is he?
Well, no probably not. As it stands right now, the Yankees have Mariano Rivera, David Robertson, Pedro Feliciano, Rafael Soriano, and Joba Chamberlain in the bullpen. Oh, and maybe even Alfredo Aceves, and Damaso Marte after the All-Star break, . Did they improve the bullpen? Sure they did, but was that the goal?
We can speculate one of two things. (1) They are considering moving Joba back to a starting role or at least want that flexibility. Pettitte isn’t coming back so the Yankees are scrambling. The fact is; if they carry Mo, Soriano, Feliciano, Robertson, and a couple chumps for long work, they really have no place for Joba. Which leads us to (2) Joba is still a relatively warm commodity. Paired with up and coming Brett Gardner and some minor league talent (which they have a lot of) could mean the Yanks may be looking to make a deal. Could come toward the trade deadline, but if Joba isn’t starting, look for him to be dealt. You know as well as I do, he’s wasted pitching the 6 or 7th inning twice a week, and the fact they gave Soriano a 3 year deal doesn’t mean he’s setting up for Rivera anytime soon. To be continued………..
I’ve never been on a rope swing in my life so I can’t speak of the thrill of doing it. I don’t know if that’s lame or not, but I’ve just never been presented with the opportunity. With that said, I’ve never seen anyone do a rope swing successfully, and then tell everyone how amazing the experience was…..
Here are some people who did not successfully complete the rope swing….

This poor kid. My worst fear in life is vomiting in a public situation, where you’re trapped, and everyone sees. This is going to scar this kid for life. You could just see shit was going awry here pretty quickly. Poor kid. That’s miserable
Special treat today for all you Gladiator fans out there, Connie Nielsen is today’s babe. She’s an old head, but still very sexy. For me, Gladiator is a top 3 movie without a doubt. If you’ve seen Devil’s Advocate you are familiar with ALL of her.
Take a look….
I love how the title of this video is “Cops brutally take down crazy naked Russian guy”. If the guy isn’t shot, I’m not sure you can consider any treatment to this guy brutal. It’s always funny to see the word “crazy” being loosely tossed around. Well, this isn’t some flimsy depiction. This fuckin guy is crazy. Guy gets naked sits on a cop car and starts making noises that sound like an Ostrich getting raped. Yeah that’s crazy

Lebron continues to solidify his legacy….. as a joke. The artist formerly known as King James said yesterday his “Karma” tweet wasn’t even posted by him. This is scientific proof that Mr. James believes that the rest of the population was born on January 12, 2011.
I said it yesterday and I will say it again, this guy has become a joke. Not to mention, his Heat lost to the shittiest team in the NBA last night, and he sprained his ankle. Maybe I was wrong, maybe God does follow basketball and GOT HIM! Probably not. What should I do? Play the villain. Nah, I think I’ll be the joke.
I’m not sure why they’re even playing these great games this weekend. Ines Sainz picked the Jets (ummm, WTF?) to win the Super Bowl. Well, now that we know who is going to win, we probably shouldn’t bother to watch. I shouldn’t even go there. Anyway, there are some great games this weekend and it all starts with the Ravens vs. Steelers on Saturday.
We all know the Patriots hopes and dreams start and end with Tom Brady. He’s an obvious choice for this list. Here are 5 other impact players that will play a role in the outcome of this weekend….

Sigh….. Sigh….. doesn’t anyone learn there lesson. I guess not. I’m still beating off with a belt around my neck even after the incident. The Jets spend all their time running their mouths, while the Patriots just keep quiet and go about their business. Dudes, they beat you by 40 last game. Ugh.
