All Things Bubba

The grapevine is abuzz today. Pete Abe thinks the Yankees will announce their new manager on Friday. Which means it will be either Girardi, Mattingly, or Pena, since they haven't interviewed anyone else. No one was called back for a second interview, either. Some think Girardi has the inside track, since he was interviewed first.

MSNBC has a couple of Yankees-related items in their rumor column. They think A-Rod will go to Boston, and Posada will go to the Mets. Ugh. I hope it's not true.

And Game 1 of the World Series is tonight. I'll watch, because it's baseball, but I'll be rooting for both teams to lose.
