***YANKS SHUT DOWN 4-0***
So was Picasner. Has there ever been a more boring broadcasting duo than Bob Lorenz and John Flaherty? I actually fell asleep twice during the game. Seems like the Yankee hitters were doing the same thing. Give Max Scherzer most of the credit, he was on top of his game. Freddy Garcia wasn't. The Tigers weren't fooled all night and the score could (and should) have been a lot worse. Garcia gave up a two-run shot to Magglio Ordonez on a "good" pitch that was down and in...at least, according to "Flash" Flaherty. He said as much twice during the replay and at least twice thereafter and once during the game recap, each time adding that he thought that "...Garcia wanted that pitch back." If he wanted it back, then it probably wasn't that good a pitch, was it Flash?
As bad as the Yanks are playing, the rest of the AL East is doing their best to keep them in first place. Tampa Bay and Boston (YAY!) both lost.

***OTHER NEWS***
Frank McCourt says the Dodgers would be in good shape if Selig wasn't nixing his deals with the Fox Network. Probably would have helped if you had nixed some of your wife's spending, too.

I saw Blake Griffin receiving his Rookie of the Year award on TV. He's a big guy and he was wearing a big suit. You could have cut that down and made suits for three point guards.

Janice Hough continues to send out those barbs at everybody:
"Tough times at Citi Field in New York. Have heard the most common chant now has changed from “Let’s Go Mets,” to “Please Go Mets.”
"Rough few days in Los Angeles. The Dodgers found out that the team doesn’t have enough money to cover their paychecks. And the Lakers didn’t do anything to earn theirs."
"Well, so much for all those doubters who didn’t believe Boise State had a big-time football program. They’ve now been charged by the NCAA with rules violations and have self-imposed sanctions. Another step closer to joining the SEC!"

Gotta love this woman!
