So when we dismissed Joe Torre’s book as a “tell-some” yesterday? OK. That might have been a little premature. That was before we found out about this little gem, thanks to a source with a copy: Donahue would then rub hot liniment all over [Roger] Clemens’ body. … Then Donahue would rub the hottest possible [...]

Wow, Joe Torre. Really? David Wells is difficult and Kevin Brown is mean? Randy Johnson, the homeliest human being in the history of human vision, is a sad sack? No! Say it ain’t so, Joe! A-Rod is self-absorbed? We refuse to believe it. Obviously, the papers are having a field day with the “shocking” details [...]

Alex Rodriguez is just like every girl we went to middle school with on Long Island back in the mid-90s. He’s obsessed with Derek Jeter, he loves Madonna, and he spends an hour in front of his mirror every morning making sure his makeup is absolutely perfect before he leaves the house. We wouldn’t be [...]

Yield to the Duke-stir, the world’s greatest football mind. Remember a few weeks back, when everyone and their uncle had the Jets in the Super Bowl? Everyone, that is, except us. We wrote: Sign us up for not buying it. Why? Because these are the Jets. And no matter what anyone said about how bringing [...]

Plaxico Burress provided all the comedy we could handle this morning, so a few jokes we liked didn’t make the cut. Here they are: Other Giants alluded to owning guns themselves, with Brandon Jacobs adding, “if you come in between that door frame of my home, I’m going to kill you.” Jacobs backed up his [...]

The following is not about sports at all. Every now and then, something happens that is so important, so earthshaking, that it pulls our attention away from Brett Favre’s mandsome stubble for a while. And frankly, today, we can’t focus on anything else. We’re referring, of course, to the escalating beef between rapper/actor 50 Cent [...]

So the Giants are good. No, not good. Great. Spectacular. The Giants are George Foreman at his best. Step, step, punch. Step, step, punch. Get punished or bail out, you’ve no other option (unless you’re the Browns, apparently). And the Jets are good, too. We’ve been through this, and we’re still not totally believers, but, [...]

Oh man. That Brett Favre is something, isn’t he? Color us unconvinced, even now. And conflicted, as Jets fans and Favre haters. We think we might be starting to come around if it weren’t for Favre’s sideline nonsense that the NFL Network kept cutting to. Jets score to make a 17-6 lead a 23-6 one? [...]

Mike Piazza’s writing a book. Insert joke here. We poked fun at Piazza in today’s show, and to be honest, we feel a little guilty about it. Piazza is one of our favorite players of all time, and he’s without question the greatest offensive player in Mets’ history. Beyond that, he carried himself with class [...]

What happened? We were all set for another crummy season of Jets football, filled with expectations and concluding with an 8-8 record and a mediocre draft pick that will inevitably be misused. Then something changed, the Jets won three in a row and all of a sudden they’re heading into Foxborough for a showdown with [...]
