Drunk-driving Steinbrenner son-in-law Steve Swindal, who's been the one running the Yankees for years, is getting booted from the family via divorce. Howard Rubenstein put out a statement "from" George Steinbrenner that even still didn't sound at all coherent, but did begin "I'm the boss." Okay, big guy! Anyway Swindal hopes to stay on—and why shouldn't he? If he goes, who will babysit Christ-loving diva pitcher Andy Pettitte? But! If he does go, can we at least get a gay in management, so they can maybe bring Tino Martinez out of retirement so we have something to look at? Christ the Yankees are getting uglier not prettier. This is New York fucking City! We don't need an ugly baseball team. Let Boston and L.A. have all the doggy ones. —Choire
