Thursday, November 20, 2008 - Welcome Back, Pac

-Word is the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees are both bidding over the services of A.J Burnett, who reportedly is looking for a hefty 5-year deal, and the Yanks are playing it big with their offer. May the best team win. Wait, was "best" the word I was looking for?
-So Dustin Pedroia was named the 2008 AL MVP, hey, at least I got the team right!
-It's all speculation at this point, but with the Yankees' recent addition of Nick Swisher, and the Rays need for a left-handed DH - Jason Giambi seems to be a perfect match, no?
-George Karl has really been ripping A.I now that the Nuggets finally have a legit floor general, here are just a few of the verbal jabs directed at the Answer: "There are less bad plays, more solid plays," Karl said. "I think the wasteful, cheap possessions that we used to have 10 to 15 a game, they don't exist very much anymore."
-I don't know what's worse, Donovan McNabb not knowing a tie was possible in the NFL, or Chris Webber's infamous time-out back in his Fab Four days.
-The Boston Red Sox have acquired Ramirez...Ramon Ramirez for Coco Crisp from the K.C Royals. Did I fool you for at least a second?
-Not that it's important, but about a few days ago, Alex Tanguay had a little more than double the votes than Sidney Crosby. Credit that to the fact that there are just too many hockey-obsessed fans in Montreal.
-Pacman Jones is back with the Dallas Cowboys, and will have to police himself as there will be no team bodyguards this time around.
-The Moose has retired from the game of baseball after 18-years in the big leagues. For some reason, I think the C.C Sabathia and Lowe-Burnett headlines might overshadow this...
-Cleveland fans booed Lebron James for not throwing up a shot at a chance to break the century mark, which would have given everyone one free taco.

This "the video you requested is not currently available" mumbo-jumbo is getting annoying. ESPN should keep the videos on the net for at least a week...sheesh.
