Kilo, I believe that you missed the most important part of the story: According to the Post, Chamberlain had no comment on the video while taking a tour of the White House with the Yankees on Tuesday. The Yankees are taking their white house tours during the season these days, since they don't get invited to visit after the season is over anymore.

So Francona's obsession with lefty righty lefty continues and Jason Bay hits 6th as a result. Super.

A couple more years and then I will be dating his future ex-girlfriends.

Did you go to Camden Gom?

I wonder if Donte Stallworth is waiting for someone to tell him April Fools, too.

What about Wily Mo Pena?

I miss Julian Tavarez.

I think Youkilis should do the exact same photo shoot.

I keep waiting to see the 16 year old Dominican boy in the corner waiting for instructions but he isn't there. They must have edited those photos out.

And Mike Myers and Doug M And for that matter Johnny Damon even.

Recent history (say 5 years?) would indicate the opposite.

Im not seeing any results when searching for delonte. Any help?

OK, so I need the help of you internet whiz kids. Delonte West did probably the funniest interview I've ever seen a couple years ago, discussing murals, bugs bunny, tolls, and numerous other things. I've been looking for it EVERYWHERE, and every link seems to go back to the same post saying the video has been pulled because of terms violations. Can ANYONE find me a copy of this video? I'll love you forever, even if you are Gom. Thanks, Tom

If you look though, a small market team actually set this precedent with its locking up star players YOUNG (some with less than a YEAR service time for long term deals). That team? The D-Rays. In my opinion the best chance an organization with little resources has is to approach one of the two Florida team ways- 1) (Marlins) trade off young talent towards the end of their deals for prospects who you shall have locked up cheap for multiple years and continue over and over, never truly realizing a fan base but having decent players and a shot at a title every so often. or 2) (D-rays) spending on scouting and developing players, then keeping those players and then signing them early to deals that are attractive to both parties. This carries greater long term risk due to injuries and players not panning out, but it also carries the greater reward of having stars locked up for long periods of time so that playoff runs can be sustained over multiple years, giving the team the best shot at long term success. This also builds a fan base and gives the team attractive trading chips of decent players under reasonable contracts later in their careers.

Well, not to be ironic, but usually I would say "right around when spring training starts".

5 million more than he would have made a a Red Sox, which if you look at the present value of the deferred money, probably amounts to more like 2 or 3 million more. After taxes and agent fees, this goes down to more like 1 million more. And after the cost of living increase, Manny is a poorer man who now has images problems, and has to get up at 10am to watch football. Rejoice, for Scott Boras looks a little dumber today.

Im pretty sure he spent all his money on the midget.

Well, as much as I personally agree with you, trading for and drafting tight ends high is exactly what Patriots management has done repeatedly over the past handful of years, and they seem to know what they are doing....

LOL

I know he's large, but throwing a bullpen? Did he at least eat some of it first?

Selling the roof table I had to the Bucholz no hitter and getting so drunk during the actual game that I didn't realize I sold no hitter tickets until 3 weeks later on the way to see a great Schilling v. Clemens game.
