What I learned Friday

Pay the extra few bucks and get Triple-A plus, when it's 3:53 am and you're stuck on the Merrit with a flat tire, you'll be glad you did. Never, however, buy the goddamn insurance the tire place tries to sell you.

The Yankees are talking about getting Mike Cameron to play center field next season. Cameron, who struck out 140-plus times in 400 at bats, couldn't crack my fantasy team. Makes me yearn for one Bernie Williams.

JFK Airport has to be one of the most godforsaken places on the planet. The best thing about my trip to Vancouver? Getting customs (back in the U.S.) overwith in Vancouver. Not much of a traveler despite being married to a true globetrotter.

Call me crazy but the morning team of Boomer and Carton is the most entetaining listen these days at WFAN.

Mike Francesa begged Ron Darling to sit in with him at the Mohegan Sun remote this afternoon. Just by being in his proximity, Francesa could make Osama Bin Laden likeable by comparison.

A money manager friend of mine once tld me "the only time you want the stock market doing well is the day you take it out. Makes sense, especially these days.

The way I feel about John McCain these days is reminiscent of how I felt at the end of the baseball season when I knew the Yankees wouldn't be making the big boy playoffs.
