    Holy crap, I've fallen out of dickhead's top 5. I must have had a very bad week.

    That's what I was thinking, Spnited. You've been a very good boy. Nobody's poked the two of you with sticks like a couple of tarantulas in a box.

    Would this be the right time to tweak Beej and his unnatural, unholy love of obnoxious Night Ranger and that horrific, inner-ear-bleeding-inducing "Sister Christian," which sends me into Beavis-like paroxyms of manic, channel-changing hysteria every time I hear the first two notes?

    Or should I save that for another time?

    Amazing - The Mets have more mishandled PR issues than any pro sports team I can think of.
    I am surprised that Bondy did not write about the time Jay outed a well known female writer.

    Who are the eight Yankees PR guy in 30 years? Rick Cerrone probably lasted the longest.

    Rick Cerrone
    Marty Appel
    Ken Ray (?? on the last name...former O's beat writer though, I think)
    Harvey Greene
    Jeff Idelson

    Forgetting three others, obviously, and I assume Jason Zillo isn't counted among those who served under Steinbrenner.

    Jeff Idelson has done well for himself in his departure.
