The Morning Fix

After acquiring veteran Richie Sexson, the Yankees are rumored to be on the market for another right-handed bat, one such name being Pirates’ outfielder Xavier Nady.  Nady could offer the Yanks some much needed consistency at the plate, and give the New York media the chance to come up with genius headlines using the nickname X-Nad.

Padraig Harrington, who was unsure whether or not he’d even play due to a wrist injury, won his second straight British Open on Sunday.  Veteran Greg Norman came up just short after making a very real, very unexpected push for the win,  eventually finishing third.  Norman would once again be forced to return to his yacht and his piles of money with his tail between his legs.

Disgruntled Miami defensive end Jason Taylor was traded to the Washington Redskins yesterday for a future second round, and sixth round draft pick.  After insisting he would not trade Taylor, Bill Parcells eventually decided he couldn’t afford to have Taylor’s nancy-dancy ways emasculating the image of his teal and orange wearing Dolphins.

ESPN aired it’s annual sports awards show, the ESPYS, last night, yielding only mediocre ratings.  Some say this could be entirely due to someone at ESPN deciding to post the results on their site 3 days earlier.
