Good morning, Sports fans! It’s Davey Mac back with another Sports Report and we have some breaking news!
The New York Yankees have just re-signed…wait for it…General Manager Brian Cashman to a four-year deal. Um…WHAT?!

What the hell is Hal Steinbrenner (Yankee Owner) thinking?! Cashman is now the General Manager of the third LONGEST World Series drought in Yankee history. We’re not talking a year or two. We’re talking…by 2023…it will be 14 years between championships (and that’s IF the Yanks win it all this season).

Furthermore…the ONLY signing Yankee fans want to hear about is that the Yanks have re-signed Aaron Judge! You know…the guy that slugged an American League record 62 home runs this year! THAT guy!

I don’t get this announcement and signing at all. The Yanks are out to lunch. And if Cashman lets Judge escape to California or anywhere else besides the Bronx…then he is one of the worst GM’s in Yankee history. I’m Davey Mac. That’s my two cents.

Brady Comes Back On 'MNF'
Tom Brady did Tom Brady things on Monday Night Football last night…as the Bucs beat the Saints…17 to 16…with Brady throwing two touchdowns in the last three minute of the game…including the game-winner with just seconds to play. The victory actually sets a record for Brady…who surpasses Peyton Manning for the most fourth quarter comebacks with 44. Amazing. The Bucs improve to 6 and 6. The Saints drop to 4 and 9.

Yankees Re-Sign Cashman
Meanwhile, the Yankees announced a signing of their own! The Yanks have signed General Manager Brian Cashman to a four-year deal. Cashman is the longest tenured GM in baseball…having been in that spot with the Yankees since 1998. The Yanks have not won a World Series since 2009…their third-longest championship drought in team history.
