    Good Point, Jack!

    Seriously though, in case you want to go reread them, all of your equally solid opinions on that article got shot to shit. Even if you claim my conclusions were off-mark, yours now look worse.

    But you can have the victory in your mind if you'd like, I don't mind.

    We'll keep it our little secret... ;-)

    Re: Your unprofessional, biased, and now wholly incorrect comments on my David Ortiz piece a few months ago.

    Buster Olney displaying complete ownership of NYY yahoos such as "Dutch" and "Patrick"

    love it.

    Couldn't agree with you more. I actually wasted my time responding to a lot of it, before I scrolled down to see you previously had written essentially the same stuff that I did.

    I love that a NYY fan will claim letting Pedro, Clemens, Vaughn, Nomar, etc were "mistakes." In hindsight, not one of those moves can be questioned.

    Did you see the latest on Manny? He now wants an A-Rod contract in terms of $ per year, somewhere around 27mil per season for 4 years, PLUS an opt out clause. If he gets that I might eat my own throw up.

    Just read through your comments on that guy Patrick's article about Manny & the Yankees. Nice work shutting down his irrational views of the Red Sox player personnel management.

    Hey Jack,

    I just wanted to let you know that Bleacher Report has launched out of beta with an updated look and feel and some great new features. Check out the "Game On" link in the header to find out more.

    Next week we'll be launching the site to the world with some public announcements—and 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 Jack!
