It's better (or worse, depending on your view point) if you go 15 or 20 years back. I'll leave you all to draw your own conclusions...
Nope, it's not hyperbole. If it were hyperbole then I'd say that every second of every day a Steinbrenner is doing something stupid.Quote:

Kenny Williams(White Sox GM) has put his foot in his mouth a couple of time in the last few years, nothing like old Stine.
How ironic and stupid. The team with by far the largest payroll in Baseball (sports?) wants to recover a couple bucks for tearing down their own stadium for something that they had no way of knowing whether it was actually there?Quote:
Well that wouldn't be up to Yankees... but anyway the Bronx DA has said that there won't be any charges. The club is still considering civil action to recover the costs involved.
Wow, the stupidity continues.
That would have been outstanding! Someone says "I buried a Red Sox jersey underneath your new stadium!" They dig up the stadium and there's nothing there. That would have made me laugh hysterically.Quote:

Unless it was something that could actually cause harm, no, I wouldn't care. It's just something buried in the ground. Nobody can see it and it does nothing.Quote:
