    7. Hank Steinbrenner spouts: The Associated Press has a part-time reporter in Tampa named Mark. Nice guy. His job at this time of the year is to literally go stand outside of Steinbrenner Field and wait for Hank to come out on the balcony for a smoke. When he does, he shouts questions at him. Then around 9 p.m. a story moves on the wire that says “Steinbrenner: Yankees want Sabathia” and everybody runs with it like it means something.

    Ha!
