Don't ask me how they pulled this one off, but at the risk of being tricked into a popsicle eating contest, Heidi Watney agreed to do an interview with the guys at Surviving Grady.

Here's a peek, but be sure to click over for the full Q & A:

Do you think of some of the Yankees' off-season moves? Buying themselves a title or just acts of desperation?

Well they are desperate after missing the playoffs for the first time in 13 years, and they do have the money to spend. It is unfortunate that they can do this. I would like to see more parity in baseball. It's sad when one team buys arguably the top 3 free agents out there. That being said it doesn't guarantee them a championship. The Rays are young and getting more experienced, and of course the Sox came one game from the World Series last year. It's going to be an interesting and tough season!

Do you ever read any of the hundreds of Red Sox blogs out there?

I like to read the blogs (when I actually have time) to see what the pulse of the fans are. The stuff that interests me are when people comment about a controversial pitching change, or a player getting benched or something like that. I am a sports junkie, so it's interesting to see if other junkies out there think the same way as I do.
