The request for a forfeit is only slightly less stupid than Stenbrenner's comments comparing the Yankees' locker room after the 22-0 loss to the feeling of New Yorkers after 9/11. What an idiot.
On the bright side, you see my man Manny flashin' the leather last night?!? Woo-hoo!! hee hee hee hee!

Chuck, I'd bet Lark's left nut that Tampa Bay will still end up getting fined by the MLB Interim-Commissioner-For Life for that fiasco.

Looks like you're right...

(btw, looks like TB & MLB were both saying all weekend they would make Monday's first game on time...)

Interesting, Dan.
The monetary damages make a lot more sense to me, than asking for a forfeit.
I wonder if they get the forfeit, could Tampa Bay get out of paying the tab?
