The Yankees continue to lose and currently they sit 9 1/2 games behind the surging Red Sox, but apparently that hasn't stopped them from having plenty of free time to shoot out some interesting quotes to the media.
Who knows how this conversation sparked, but Jason Giambi is quoted as saying that Major League Baseball should apologize to the public for the steroid era. Really Jason, kind of like how you apologized?
Bud Selig "I'm sorry that people took stuff in the 1990's, we knew people were taking stuff, but the we didn't know the effect the stuff was having, and we enjoyed the success people were having when they were taking the stuff and the popularity the stuff was having on the game. But in retrospect perhaps the stuff left a bad legacy which I will now officially deam as "The Stuff Era", where people's records and stats were often caused by the stuff they were taking."
What are you doing these kind of interviews during the middle of the season for, do you not have enough losing to concentrate on now. Does a double digit deficit staring you in the face not require dedication of your time? You know what I think you should apologize for Jason? How fat you are. How slow you are and how because you are so fat and slow the Yankees can not afford to play you at first base daily and effectively are stuck with a useless bat in Dougie Minkowitz at the end of their lineup.
Honestly, how much cooler was Giambi when he was on the A's and looked like a bad ass...
Secondly, Kyle Farnsworth was quoted as being a little critical of the whole family package for Roger Clemens. First off, who is interviewing Kyle Farnsworth, and why? There's not a single other Yankee that would do a spot on a Chicago radio station that they could have gotten instead. I bet the typical Chicago listener was absolutely ecstatic when they tuned in and were blessed with listening to Farnsworth. Secondly, Kyle I don't necessarily have a problem with anything you said, you were being honest and you're quotes aren't bad at all. It's not as if he was yelling about how the Yankees don't need Clemens, he was just stating that he thinks Clemens should be around at all times. It's an understandable position. But Kyle, did you really need to be honest, is their a benefit of being honest in the scenario?
You know what I think you should do Farny, I think you should get ticked as hell one of these series throw at some dudes head and lay a beat down on an opposing player. I think it's about time that someone on the Yanks shows a little passion, a little fire and a little sign that they are pissed the hell off with how much they suck. What says pissed off more than a 99 mile per hour fastball thrown directly at the Head of Manny Ramirez, followed by a brawl pitting the 6-4 245 pound pure muscle Farnsworth against the 6-0 200 pound Manny. You know Joe Torre won't give the call for something like this, but perhaps Larry Bowa can slip some aggressive whispers into Farny's ear before he takes the mound sometime next week.
So basically the Yanks should probably stop making news with their quotes and start making some news in the Win Column of the standings. That would be nice.
