I'm a bad person; I don't care whether Joba starts

Leave-Me-Alone.jpgNot in the mood today.

Please enjoy the many other fine Newsday sports blogs.

UPDATE: Here is a comment contest contender in response to this post from a loyal reader, quoting George Costanza in "The Deal" episode:

"You ask me to have lunch, tell me you slept with Elaine, and then say you're not in the mood for details. Now you listen to me. I want details and I want them right now. I don't have a job, I have no place to go. You're not in the mood? Well you get in the mood!"

Excellent! By the way, here is Newsday's most recent update on the developing Joba situation, which again has me wondering why I didn't become a trapeze artist like my mother advised me to.

I'll go back to writing my newspaper column now.

I think Job would have been a better closer. After all the trials and tribulations that God put him through, he never lost his faith. Those are the kinds of qualities you want in someone trying to hold down a lead in the 9th inning.

Job? :o)

Maybe he could have recruited his whale friend to catch. I doubt many passed balls would have gotten by him.

I just watched the very scene you described... Eerie.

Speaking of Seinfeld fans . . . Mazel tov, Eli! (And Abby.) I sat right behind the future Mrs. Eli at the presser the morning after the Super Bowl. She was blond.


"Maybe he could have recruited his whale friend to catch".

Uh Neil....

Where's your Bible Check Icon...?
Job? -Prophet.
JONAH---Whale.

I know, the weekend was a tad overwhelming with the Pope and Passover and all that.
Only thing missing on TV yesterday were Tammy Fay ads for Revlon Eyeliner.

Islander505: Sorry. Sigh. I told you I wasn't in the mood today.

I wonder what Hank Steinbrenner and Randy Levine think about Mike and the Mad Dog making light of Hank on the YES network.

So what's it going to be like with you and Mushnick under the same corporate umbrella [and Joe Buck and Tim McCarver and Jillian Barbarie ... and the one and only Ernie Anastos]????

I guess I'll get a welcome hug from Jillian . . . and Ernie.
