Mike,

I just thought you might like this piece. It’s a humerous recap of the fabulous Miami Hurricanes vs Florida State Seminoles game that took place last night. Let me know what you think of it.

Which RB will hit the "sophomore slump"? I crunched some numbers and looked into the past to predict the future.

Hey Mike (where ya been buddy?),

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 Mike,

The Yankees have seemingly been sleeping through the early part of 2009, and it reminds of a children’s story from years past. New York has become its own version of Rip Van Winkle. I would love to hear your feedback and comments on this humor piece which also highlights the Yankees many issues.

Thanks everyone…and I hope you enjoy my take on the crisis in the Bronx.

Hey Mike,

The Yankees were already hitting just .232 with RISP (3rd worst in the league) BEFORE facing the Red Sox. They then went a horrifying 4-19. Read how fans are beginning to become angry and impatient as the left-on-base totals begin to skyrocket. I would love to hear your thoughts and comments.

Hey Mike,

The Alex Rodriguez steroid/hip saga is almost coming to a close, and I wanted to tell the story of A-Rod’s tumultuous offseason through the eyes of How the Grinch Stole Christmas, or in this case “April.” Both A-Rod and the Grinch are slightly misunderstood and have taken a bevy of negative criticism.

Let me know what you think of the article and my rhyming skills. Thanks in advance!

Hey Mike,

Jackie Robinson meant as much to America and it’s pastime than almost any other player in the game. Find out why he would be smiling proudly if he had watched the Yankees-Rays game yesterday. I would love you hear your thoughts, and hope to hear from you soon.

Hey Mike,

We all know Derek Jeter’s achievements ON the field, but he is as great a man off of the field. Whether you are a Yankees fan or not, you will enjoy this story of how Jeter helped to pick a young Yankees fan back onto his feet.

Hey again Mike,

I wrote an article about my first hand experiences at the new stadium on April 2. The team's first workout was very exciting, and also opened myself up to a lot of relfections and emotions. Check it out, and i would love to hear your thoughts. Take care!
