    Ah, the mangled Devil-horns - a sure fire way to spot a jackass, if the Yankee uniform didn't tip you off first.

    Be sure not to miss Swisher and Damon in the upcoming buddy comedy Turner & Douche.

    This seemingly minor detail turns the gesture into the ASL sign for "I love you."


    The only Yankee that uses ASL is A-Rod. And when he uses it, it looks more like "A/S/L?".

    Maybe it's their code for "I'm going to toss your salad tonight"

    "Confusion and Adult Diapers" is a fairly succinct summary of the Yankee Way.

    "Triumph" and "derision" are two words way beyond the ken of Damon and Swisher.


    "Fuck yeah" and "fuck you" are probably more likely...and that's just how everyone feels when they lose. Repeatedly. To anyone. How apt.

    Since Johnny Damon is doing it, I think it may mean "I'm legally retarded."

    But AJ, where is CARL MONDAY? Is he not part of your I-TEAM? What a travesty.


    Btw, for anyone who is easily amused, there is a headline "Pants Party" over on the ESPN front page right now, in the Video section.
