RUSH TO JUDGEMENT

Vod loves to jab the needle at Picasner, often taking an opposite tack, sometimes one even HE doesn't really believe, just to play devil's advocate. This time, Vod tried to take the opposing viewpoint so quickly, that he actually made Picasner's point: that the GM money was drying up and Boras was still pushing for more. Boras hasn't recognized that his clients aren't worth what he's asking and GMs are refusing to pay it. That's why they're still out there and that was my point. I guess I should say thank you.
By the way, HALLADAY was traded and signed an extension, HOLLIDAY is still waiting.

***HAVEN'T WE BEEN DOWN THIS ROAD BEFORE?***
Cashman has stated that he's perfectly happy with Brett Gardner as his everyday left fielder. In 2006, he said he was happy with Bubba Crosby as his everyday centerfielder and then promptly went out and signed Johnny Damon. If I were Gardner, I'd be looking over my shoulder.

***INTERESTING GAME LAST NIGHT***
Seaton Hall looked like they had 7 men on the offensive board the whole first half. That, and some hot shooting, kept the Hall in the game. In the past, Boeheim teams would usually fold in this situation, but this team seems to have a lot of heart and a decent bench. Vod is right, Triche did look bewildered. Wes Johnson reminds me of Carmelo Anthony in that he can take over a game when needed. This team has a good future.

***PICASNER'S PICKS & PANS FOR THE H.O.F.***
Some chioces are based on numbers, some ar just opinion; you decide which is which.
SHOULD BE IN THERE:
Roberto Alomar
Barry Larkin
Lee Smith
Bert Blyleven
NOT GOOD ENOUGH:
Andre Dawson
Edgar Martinez
Fred McGriff
NO WAY...EVER:
Mark McGwire
Barry Bonds
That should elicit a blood-soaked response from Vod.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL
