YES

Cue the Suzy Waldman dramatics. Put the YES camera crews on call for an instant Yankeeography. Have Howard Rubenstein draft a missive from George.

The greatest baseball team we have ever seen is reuniting. Yes, the 1998 Yankees, they of the 114-48 record and 11-2 World Series run will join up again on Jan. 16 to regale Congress with tales of how they stole titles in the 90s and formed the best team drugs could inflate. Big-time players -- Roidger Clemens, Andy Pettitte and Chuck Knoblauch -- are slated, but so is the team's most valuable contributor, Brian McNamee.

No word yet whether other members of the Empire's dynasty -- like Justice, Holmes or Velarde -- will be called.

Or whether disgraced Red Sox and Phillies alums like Manny Alexander or Lenny Dykstra will be invited. {Note from Christine: I wouldn't say that Lenny Dykstra has been disgraced. Disappointing, yes, but I don't think anyone thinks less of him since the report came out. It's not a surprise that he was named. Especially since he talked with MLB officials about his steroid use in 2000 and yet nothing was done about steroids in baseball until years later.}

In other sports: A protracted Red Sox playoff run delayed my interest in football this year, I still can't believe the regular season's over. Like many, I'm going heavy on road warriors this weekend.

I'm jumping on the Redskins bandwagon, the Steelers are too beat up and the Giants will find a way to get past Tampa Bay. The only favorite who will play like it is the Chargers, who will look more like the '06 version than the '07 version against the Titans.

But we all know these four games are just appetizers for the weekend's main event: two Yankee blowhards pinky swear over steroids.
