Reporting For Duty, Mr. Steinbrenner, SIR!
Thursday I hit the road to sunny Tampa, Florida, to make sure things are proceeding as planned as the Yankees embark on their ninth straight AL East title and overall ass-kicking of the rest of the less-fortuned MLB.

Unfortunately, there's nothing I can do to keep Jeter, Damon, A-Rod, Williams and Leiter in camp, as they're scheduled to play in this WBC farce that, as predicted, has a higher rate of pulling out than a drunken college hook-up.

I'll try to get pics up ASAP, likely sometime on Monday, and a report to follow. The Saturday affair will be played at Legends Field (pictured), a place named as only the Yankees can do it, and we'll be trailing the Bombers to whatever high school fields the Blue Jays and Phillies play at. Should be a good time, though I'm expecting the biggest sausagefest since the days of Abe Frohman.

While I'm here, I might as well clean out the Web Finds:

Lindsey Lohan's GM Fashion Show Nipple Slip — This one looks legit, too. Don't miss the hi-res version of more freckles than Peppermint Patty ever dreamed. Among common phrases that owe their origins to the Internet, I'd say "Googling someone" is No. 1, followed closely by "the nipple slip."

Stadler & Waldorf's Oscar Picks — Let the Muppets cronies help you out with your pool.

Torrie Wilson Superfan Site — Anytime you've got a million screen grabs of each TV appearance, the term "obsessive" comes to mind. But she's got nice cans, so who cares?

Date Movie Is a Fucking AbominationMetacritic aggregates 18 media reviews of this flick. Seven gave it a zero. Six more gave it 25 or less, and that's out of 100.

Improv Everywhere Strikes Again — The New York-based prank club manages to get 60 cell phones to ring at once at the Strand bookstore. Pics and video included.

Mardi Gras High on Spirit, Low on Sales — The AP reports on the financial impact the festival had on a rebuilding New Orleans.

Alba Threatens Playboy Over Cover Pic — The joke's on Playboy here if it has to resort to featuring cover photos of hot, young chicks who refused to pose nude. (I'm sure Jessica Alba's been asked 1,000 times.) But did the magazine cause "immeasurable harm" by doing it? Gimme a break. I'm sure she — or her handlers — just want compensation for having influenced magazine sales. That is if anyone still buys Playboy.

Ohio Couple Ties the Knot at McDonald's — What do you give as a gift at this thing, a package of sweet & sour sauce? Is the reception held in the children's playpen's ball pit?

Paul,

Since you're home today give us your educated opinion on this. I got offered a subscription to Playboy for $16. Is this a good deal or a waste of my money? I'll be paying to see glimps of pubes, or I can go on the internet and for free get views only seen in gynecology class.

good luck with the TPA trip. I know you'll have fun once your down there.

I saw the article about the Mickey D's wedding. You think that is bad? My friends got hitched in a Bennigan's this last weekend - and I was in it!
