    According to a wire service story, the Steinbrenner family denied a report in the New York Daily News that they are exploring buyers for the team. The family emphatically denied that they Yankees are for sale.

    Which of course really means the Yankees ARE for sale.

    Looks like New York has a Canzano! Has he any siblings?

    Have they started denying they are for sale too much? Until then it's not really a news story.

    Maybe Merritt Paulson has a secret group of buyers that no one knows about.

    OK, here's the scoop from my secret inside source.

    The Steinbrenner family is buying the Trail Blazers.
    Paul Allen is buying the Yankees.
