I almost forgot

Jury selection began in the trial of upstanding citizen and former Yankees hero Jim Leyritz.

Leyrtiz, you may remember, is accused of vehicular homicide while drunk.

Leyritz, you may also remember, hit what is likely the most significant home run of recent Yankees history. Yes, more so than Aaron Boone.

In the years after the Blow that Ruined Mark Wohlers, Leyritz has admitted to drug use and has evidently wasted thousands of dollars on his drinking habit.

None of this is news. It's just sad.

Not to kick someone when they're down, but NBC just reran the SNL episode with the Yankees Wives Club (with Derek Jeter in drag) with the great line "Nobody wants to sleep with Chuck Knoblauch."

Heh heh heh.
