		<description>[23] Diane, I taught Travis Henry when he was an undergraduate &quot;student&quot; at the University of Tennessee and I was a grad student.  He epitomizes why the UT football team has an 11 percent graduation rate.  I doubt he&#039;s even functionally literate.</description>

		<description>LMAO @ $20 per for a seat in the 100&#039;s next to a foul pole to hear some criminal millionaire and his wife avoid paying taxes. What&#039;s next? Selling tickets to the grand opening of the George W. Bush Presidential Library (hahaha)? For the uninitiated, that&#039;s a joke because Churches and Libraries are supposed to be free admittance, but I digress...

To be honest, I&#039;d pay $20 to enter a completely empty Yankee Stadium for an equal amount of time! I wager I&#039;d get much more out of that kind of visit, even to the new park.

But it&#039;s things like these that disgust me when some Mutts fan or a Dodgers or Giants fan from ancient history says he&#039;s never been to Yankee Stadium out of some contrived reason akin to &quot;The Yankees are ruining MLB!&quot; and they actually conduct events other than the Yankees games there from time to time. I mean I hate the Marlins, but I&#039;ve still been to Joe Robbie/Pro Player/Whatever in the Hell it&#039;s being called today Park! Here&#039;s your chance to get in there, and you don&#039;t even have to have your &quot;precious baseball fan integrity&quot; insulted by watching a Yankee game!

So spend the $20, spend another $5 on a package of foam earplugs, and get into and see the new Yankee Stadium! It may never be that cheap again! Oh, and &quot;Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!&quot; - Frank Morgan as the Wizard of Oz (1939). Be a &quot;Good Deed Doer&quot; instead! And when security prevents you from entering certain parts of Yankee Stadium that you want to see during the event, like the dugout and clubhouse, just roll your eyes back into your forehead, shake your head violently from side to side, and start mumbling incoherently (speaking in tongues), you know, like other idiots do, and tell them you were simply going into the squeaky clean Yankees Clubhouse whirlpool to cure your staph infection because you are in fact one of the &quot;Great Unwashed&quot;! Not only won&#039;t you be escorted from the building out of pity, you may even be brought down to the field for a &quot;healing&quot; or a &quot;laying on of hands&quot; before being returned safely to your $20 seat near the foul pole. Now THAT would be a memorable visit to the new Yankees Stadium... *

* If I&#039;ve offended any of you with this post, too bad! Go cry to the Osteens! They can &quot;soothe&quot; your plight... if the price is right!

		<description>Someone needs to be held responsible for something as criminal as that video. 

If I were Orel Hershiser, I would have spent every dollar I ever made tracking down every copy of that video and having them all destroyed.

Wow...just wow!</description>

		<description>Steve Garvey has NOTHING on former-NFLer Travis Henry
http://tinyurl.com/bz86gn

&quot;Henry, 30, a former N.F.L. running back who played for three teams from 2001 to 2007, has nine children — each by a different mother, some born as closely as a few months apart.&quot;</description>

		<description>[12] I&#039;m not sure why one would feel the need to make a comment about religion.  This fits a long Yankee Stadium tradition, from gatherings of Jehovah&#039;s Witnesses to papal masses. I&#039;m not sure it warrants comment beyond that.</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;Somewhere out there is a player who can be had on the relative cheap who is better than Angel Berroa, if not Ransom.&lt;/b&gt;

Then what&#039;s the rush to make a deal?</description>
