ESPN The Comic Strip--Fake Headlines from Phineas T. Bluster Olney

Fake headline from ESPN this morning. These tools are just tools. They chose a dishonest way to earn a living:

• "Steinbrenner said reports that the Yankees recently withdrew a formal offer to the Twins are not true.

• "There wasn't an official offer anyway. You can't withdraw something that wasn't there," Steinbrenner said. "There was no official offer on the table at this time."

Which was common knowledge and stated as such one post below this from a 1/4/08 NY Times article. The Twins must be desperate to get their hands on young Yankee players. They forget--they won the battle for socialism in baseball. It has worked. The Yankees can't afford $150-$200 million and they certainly can't afford to give up any players. Learn to reap what you sow. You won but you still think you can rip off the Yankees.

• Reference, AP report, (a misleading somewhat desperate headline), "Baby Boss-Yankees Still in on Santana," published on SportingNews.com 1/14/08
