“.it took many 100s of millions to fix the Yankees a couple years ago.”

As opposed to the 220 million the RS laid out in FA in the last two off seasons and got it wrong? At least the Yankees got what they paid for in 2009.

Why is his yacht equipped with neck braces?

dammit, you beat me to it. I was going to ask if anyone noticed “rope burns.”

Are there any Kennedys left? For ardent Churchmen, they were pretty stingy breeders.

I think he tried to hang himself, like Harry Andrews at the opening of The Ruling Class. Probably lucky that Theo cut him down in time.

Is he friends with the Kennedys? Was one of them steering the boat? Never let a Kennedy drive, fly, ski, or steer anything!!!!

Someone should keep a close watch on that yacht. The way Henry’s luck is going right now he might end up with a 2nd sinking ship.

Too expensive. There’s not enough beer in the Boston clubhouse budget to fill Sabathia’s belly.

What’re the odds that Lucchino tried to reenact Fredo’s final scene in Godfather II?

No, he was watching a Laser Show.

No it doesn’t. It’s gong to take a lot more than 100 Mil to fix the RS.

Sabathia?

I would certainly think so. Of course, knowing the Sox’ luck, Sabathia would start to show his age or become seriously injured once they acquired them.

But we all the know the Yanks will hold on to him, hell or high water.

If Sabathia became a free agent in the off season, would Epstein and Henry try to sign him?

Was he out on the high seas exploring for “Red Sox Nation”?

Sounds plausible.

Epstein asked for an addition $100 million to “fix” the Sox, and it made Henry’s head spin 360 degrees, Linda Blair-style.

Is that you “ceps” or is it a doppelganger?

And the problems continue for the Red Sox. “Mr. Henry, do you have Grey Poupon?”
