Hey,

The turmoil surrounding the 1977 Yankees earned them the nickname of “The Bronx Zoo.” The current 2009 Yankees have an interesting blend of leaders and pranksters, so I decided to create a LITERAL “zoo.”

Check out what animal each Yankee would be reincarnated as in a next life.

Thanks everyone!

It appears as though Nick Swisher’s Yankees honeymoon is coming to a close, and is being replaced with married life. Smiles are quickly transitioning into expressions of concern. Read about how bad it has gotten for Swish in the Bronx.

Hey Chip,

Melky Cabrera hit a walk-off home run last night for the Yankees, but the score and the win paled in comparison to Brett Gardner’s remarkable story. Read how he brought a smile and hope to a sick little girl in NYC.

Hey Chip,

Ryan Zimmerman’s hit streak halted at 30 games last night. As one streak ends, another is admired. Read about how Joe DiMaggio forever redefined ’56,’ and how his feat may never be broken. It is a record that thankfully cannot be broken through steroid use, and represents all that was once right in a game that has since gone so wrong.

Thanks in advance!

Hey Chip,

In the wake of countless college graduations around the country, it is once again time for the Yankees to go through the GPA gauntlet. See if you agree with the Yankees strengths, weaknesses, and individual grading. I would love to hear your comments and feedback.

Hey Chip I wrote an article on CC Sabathia's Opening Day Start and whether it is a sign of things to come for him.

Hey Chip,

I had an awful day today, so I took it out on MLB. Here's my first humor piece on "the worst case scenarios for all 30 teams." If you get the chance, I'd love for you to check it out and let me know what you think.

As always, thanks for the support, and I hope you enjoy the read/makes your day better!

Thanks for the ADD Chip, and welcome back. You haven't been very active, so I'll assume you've been away!

Hey Chip,

I hope you've been enjoying the new and improved Bleacher Report—we're really happy with the feedback we've received so far.

Just thought I'd let you know that next week we'll be launching the site to the world with some public announcements, and thus it'd be great to get a contribution from you between now and Tuesday to make Bleacher Report's launch a success.

Let me know if you need any help with ideas or have questions. Have a great weekend Chip!
