"A New York Treasure" --Village Voice

Punch Drunk Love

This is what I imagine Derek Jeter will look like if he lets himself go in his old age. Question is, who is Pesci? Francisco Cervelli?

they don't look too much alike, but Joba and Swish could end up looking like Paulie Cicero (Sorvino) if they eat too much pasta & gravy

[3] Interesting that Jorge's out. Isn't he already going to miss enough time with the suspension? And why doesn't Brains get a chance to start every now and then?

[4] i was thinking the same thing. i just hope no new injuries come out, 'coz of last night. that'd really piss me off...

[4] apparently, he's already been suspended. Per Petey:

UPDATE, 4:50 p.m.: So much for the night off. According to the Daily News, Posada got four games and a $3,000 fine, which is pretty much what was expected. Jesse Carlson got the same.

No word on appeals yet. But Posada should take his four games and come back Monday in Anaheim. Fighting it means the process gets delayed and he could miss games against Boston later in the month.

UPDATE, 5:22 p.m.: Word now is that Shelley Duncan will get three games for his role in the brawl. He was, as you would expect, an active participant. There also will be assorted fines.

You have to hand it to Shelley. He has been in the majors parts of three seasons and been suspended twice.

[7] Shelley... funny!

8 a.O   ~  Sep 16, 2009 5:37 pm

[6] Wow, that was fast. He should definitely not appeal and just take a few days off. He should have been doing that anyway because of the finger.

And as for Shelley, as they say on Team America, F*CK, YEAH!! Love that guy. He should get the wrestling belt for a day just for his contribution last night.

Not much else for him to do...

Shelley's VORP (Value over Replacement Pugilist) is outstanding though.
