Originally posted by Sicilian Babe: Well, you may be waiting a looooooong time. It seems that Mr. Pavano recently began complaining about pain to his ribcage. It seems that he was in an auto accident in Florida on August 15th and broke two ribs. It also seems that he forgot to mention it to the team. Oops!! Cashman is furious, and rightly so. There was an accident report made, but with Ernesto bearing down on Florida, the police are unable to produce it at this time.
I like how Pavano made it sound like nothing...
Pavano: "Umm...my car slipped on a wet patch and bumped into a truck."
Reality: "I was driving my Porsche like an idiot, lost control, and slammed into an 18-wheeler."
I'm crossing my ingers that Cashman and the Yankee legal team can find a loophole in the contract that will allow then to terminate Pavano's deal. It will give us some cash to go shopping during the offseason.
