| FLUSHING, NY – He did it! First, he upstaged a 4-hour ceremony that had more pomp and circumstance than a Brangelina child birth – the Brett Favre press conference. Then he grabbed our attention away from China’s Olympic Games’ Opening with a Clint Eastwood-like ‘Watch me, I dare you.’ swagger that would make even Falcon Eddy and Clubber T. Lange scared. That’s right, Ladies & Germs, Aaron Heilman took our breath away. He did it at a RAUCOUS Shea Stadium in relief of a STELLAR Oliver Perez. He did it by firing away at defenseless Marlins; later, we heard him say, “It was like shooting FISH in a barrel.” 2 innings, no runs and a much-needed, well-deserved, good ol’ fashioned 2-inning Save. Wow! This was after his last outing, a horrendous effort that had us believing he was point-shaving. Why the turnaround? What took place during that lonely time between appearances? Was that really Aaron Heilman last night?! All good, pertinent questions and fortunately, we have the answers. Our sources – the same ones that had us running around the bowels of Central America – told us that a certain star NFL QB had sought A.R. out, knowing of him from his Notre Dame days. Apparently, South Bend is not too far from a town named Green Bay. Anyway, we verified this with our crack correspondent, Triple F (Fabulous Fireman Frank), who said, “Kid, maybe Favre said something to the nervous nitwit.” That’s when it all made sense: Brett Favre, or “Jet Favre” as we like to call him, sat A-Heil down, slapped him across his scared, puffy face and told him, “Give ‘em Hell, Heilsie!” That’s all it took. A-Heil was frothing at the mouth, we hear. And the transition couldn’t come at a better time. Heilman The Headline-Stealer – see him live at Shea Stadium; he’ll take your breath away… He’s no Ian Kennedy… Rex O’Rourke tomorrow. |

| A-Heil is the best one... Funny. But I am confused. I was at the game on Tuesday and saw you again last night. How many of you are there? You were right about Pittsburgh when you were screaming that they would beat Philly and the Mets would be one back. |

| Church and Maine are cleared to play which is as good a story as the Ollie N Heilsie Show. Now if Wagner turns out okay and Pedro can avoid spraining a glut, we will be tough to beat. Nice job by Kennedy last night. |
