BUSTED COVERAGE has this poignant moment between Goose Gossage and his fellow Yankee coaches at Spring Training in Tampa:

Caption from the photo, found on Flickr.com: “Notice the placement of the fingers. Someone on the coaching staff was throwing some standard baseball insults after he signed autographs for about 30 minutes and talked to the fans.“

Either that, or someone’s going to be hitting Sunglass Hut after today’s split-squad against the Orioles.

Last time Mehmet Okur caught our eye, he was partying with Andrei Kirilenko (and someone who wasn’t Andrei’s wife, in a rather demonstrative position).

Now Matt Watson of AOL FANHOUSE has a pointer to another memorable Mehmet moment, this time as he digitizes his feelings during a recent Clippers-Jazz game at Staples Center.

No one, including the SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, was really sure who the Turk was aiming the bird at. We’re guessing it was a psychosomatic reaction to what he was thinking about Jerry Sloan at that moment. Or maybe those dratted Kurds as they mass on Turkey’s border (ok, it’s probably not that).
