		<description><![CDATA[Dear Johnny Damon,
I am a lifelong Yankee fan.  You are my favorite active player.  Before you it was Don Mattingly, and before him Reggie Jackson.
I want you back, at any cost.  That being said...
You are obviously rich as hell already. Do you know how many people would kill to be in your shoes? Playing for the Yankees? Winning the World Series? Being a king in the greatest city on earth?
Take the two years and $20mil. You&#039;ll make it up in free dinners and drinks in NYC for the rest of your life.
Sincerely,
Your biggest fan
ps  your agent is a greedy jackass.  and those are his good points.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[He is a baby, but he can still rake, especially with the short porch in right.  Although if they do bring him back it should be for an incentive heavy contract that can get him from $10 million a year to the $13 million he wants.  Otherwise I worry about him dogging it a bit because he does act like a spoiled child.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Craig, bingo.  You&#039;re on the money with your take on this.  The Granderson deal gave the Yanks the necessary leverage to be able to deal with that dirtbag Scott Boras.  I&#039;m sure Damon has 2 years left in those bones, but he&#039;s not gonna get more than that from the Yanks.  In fact, he&#039;s lucky the Yankees aren&#039;t pushing for a 1-year deal.  I&#039;d like to have Damon back, but not for more than 2 years.]]></description>
