The Yankees introduced A.J. Burnett and CC Sabathia to the press yesterday in their official coming-out party, or whatever they call those media circle jerks. Big League Stew smartly called this $240 million worth of initials, and the largesse is kind of embarrassing. Think about it: that’s an 82 million-dollar pitcher standing next to a 161 million-dollar pitcher standing in a new $1.3 billion-dollar stadium.
In a related story, I found two dollars in change under my couch cushions. Hello, slice of pizza for lunch!
That’s not true, actually. It was just a joke. The truth is I have a futon because couches are way expensive. So I didn’t find any change at all. Who knows what I’ll have for lunch. Maybe this white bread is still good. Man, this got real depressing real fast.

Are you implying that “blogger” is a poor career choice? Good day, sir, I said good day!
At least you have a futon. All I have is the frame. Man, jagged metal hurts.
And how much do baseball teams pay people to watch that boring crap?
With Carl Pavano gone, someone has to keep the Yankees DL warm.
I am surprised this post did not include some pics of AJ Burnetts wife Karen Burnett. She is smoking hot!!! Check her out at the press conference nice butt great boobs
$2? Pizza? fuck it, parlay that $2 and buy a scratch ticket
Discarded pizza boxes are an excellent source of cheese
$240 Million Mmmmm
David Patterson is going to take 80% of that.
Gotta make up that budget shortfall somehow.
@GCFB- I’d rather him tax that then itunes. I can’t bear to pay an additional 7 cents for the latest Jonas brothers single.
Futon? Luxury!
@GGFB,& BC, also stock up on your sugar filled sodas before those go up 18%
Paterson doesn’t see what the big deal is.
Actually, Paterson doesn’t see.
/ha ha very funny motherfucker
Click on the ads people, click on the ads.
Why is Gary Sheffield on the Jumbotron?
I can’t wait until CC’s obese ass gets injured and you’ll be able to witness the money fly out of the new community park displacing stadium.
don’t hate the player hate the ummmmmmm………. monopoly?
So what’s with the fake Arabic on the jumbotron in the background. I mean, it’s real Arabic lettering, but it’s gobbledegook.
Suck it New York. Fatass CC will arrive on the DL in 5, 4, 3…
Baseball needs a salary cap. Meanwhile, your first grade teacher made about $30,000. That’s per year, not per inning (or whatever the fuck it breaks down to).
CC says he joined the Yanks because it was his best shot at a championship.
No, you’re best shot at a championship was when you were up on Boston 3 games to 1 in 2007 ALCS, and your fat ass choked. That was your best chance. This is just money.
This was one more big Yankees player introduction. Hasn’t worked since 2000.
He’s ready to choke already.
