USA USA USA

Can you be any prouder as an American right now after the brilliant victory over Canada today at the Winter Olympics. I just feel so patriotic right now, it is truely an awesome feeling. To be the Canadians in Canada is just special. Team Canada is absolutely loaded with All-Stars such as Iginla, Crosby, Broduer, and Stall, and Team USA took it to them. I loved the look on the faces of the Canadians fans faces. USA just walked in there house in there sport and showed them whose boss. Rafalski, Jack Johnson, and all of the defense did what they had to do, and Captain (and Devil may I add) Jamie Langenbrunner really has his squad playing well. I am excited entering the elimination round. Can wait to watch the Finland/Sweden Game, if its half as good as Canada/USA it'll be a treat.

In other news, Baseball season is upon us. I have been up and down on some of the moves my New York Yankees have done. I dont like the Granderson move because I was so high on Austin Jackson, but then again we got rid of Phil Coke so that is AWESOME. I love the Vazquez move, that was brilliant by Cashman, I know us Yankees fans have bad memories of Game 7 2004 ALCS, but I'm willing to give him benefit of the doubt that he was hurt. The Randy Winn signing is terrible. I just wish we could have brought back Damon. One of the great intangibles to last years team was our looseness in the clubhouse, and we got rid of that component. And Winn is just an old guy that cant do much. My next post will be about the Red Sox and Mets so make sure you come back for that.

I just want to run some moves by you and maybe get your feedback. I'll throw out some names that I think the Yankees should sign and tell me what you think:

Carlos Delgado
Randy Johnson
Tony Gwynn
Roger Clemens
Willie Randolph...well Willie is a joke, but I think the first four guys could really propel the Yankees back to the World Series in 2010. And I have a few trades in mind aswell if you could give me your thoughts.

Marte and Burnett for Zach Duke and Ross Ohlendorf.

And what do you think about maybe making a move for a middle reliever such as Jesus Colome out in Seattle?
