mcpapa Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 I've seen articles drawing parallels between Lidle and Munson in the last few months. Here's one. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/09/08/sports/baseball/08yankees.html?ex=1315368000&en=f488e3344c30a4f4&ei=5090&partner=rssuserland&emc=rss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birdsfan Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 They're saying he was in the process of buying the plane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Dad Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Now they are reporting that the plane may have been registered to ex-Red and current Yankee Cory Lidle. :eek:. Now we can officially watch ESPN for coverage. This just stuns me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spindoc Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 This is just heart breaking. Yankees didn't need this. I'm quite sure that his family didn't need this, who cares about the Yankees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da champ Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Word is it was his plane. There is no word if he was on it. Maybe the Yankees are doomed after the Red Sox beat them in seven a few years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Dad Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 I'm quite sure that his family didn't need this, who cares about the Yankees. I'm sure as well. I'm just as shocked as others. My apologies to the family. And thanks for the heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
