We saw on TV today that a plane crashed in Manhattan earlier. You guys know I'm a big Yankee fan and I cover them on my other blog. I just found out that Yankee pitcher, Cory Lidle was killed on that plane. I just watched him on the YES Network the other day call in and defend some of the comments he made about Joe Torre after the Yanks lost to Detroit. Cory said that he was misquoted and thought Joe Torre was the best manager the Yankees could have...I'm stunned.
