Well, not exactly. But hearing that the Yankees were kicking the tires on Manny Ramirez brought to mind a rant from the latest Cashman-Headwarmer Dialogue.

If you’ve been reading this blog for any length of time, you’ve probably figured out Red and I have…how shall I say it…different…tastes. Christmas tuneage is no exception. To be honest, I never heard of any of the songs on Red’s list (other than number six of course). I tend to gravitate towards the classics, [...]
