Who is gonna take all those over the hill, overpaid bums? If we can see it then what makes you think other GM's wont? And where do you think that they will find replacements? They have torched their farm system and are going to pay for it for awhile. I'm guessing that the Boss wont live long enough to see another Championship flag being raised.

I wish they would make a decision either way and stop talking about it. Its all ESPN has been talking about since the Yankees lost on Saturday. Enough already.

I dont understand why he just doesnt walk away and tell that ahole to GFH.
By the way, another great prediction by the ahole saying his team would win the world series, they were just too good for everyone.

$7 million to sit in the dugout for 162 nights a year? He'd be pretty stupid to walk away until his contract is up.

Well, I used words like 'drop' and 'unload' because guys like Mussina and Sheffield are FREE AGENTS. A-Rod is VERY tradeable to some teams. The Yanks are likely still stuck with Wright, Pavano and Unit for now.
