So Long Skipper …
Yesterday, my beloved Orioles released Dave Trembley as Manager of the team. He seemed like a nice guy who wanted to play fundamental baseball. Being a situational and statistical type manager didn’t always work for him especially with a team of youngsters. Oddly, his teams were always hurt; key players getting injuries, wrecked starting pitching or hurt relievers. But as Chancellor Rhea said “Nice doesn’t get the job done.” At some point I hope the team can turn it around. I doubt it’ll be this year or even next year. Which will make going to see a game much easier as we’ll be able to get cheap tickets the day of a game.
- Remember that Star Wars lightsaber dancing video kid? Ever wonder what happened to him? He had to go to therapy because of what happened to him.
- Artoo, where are … oh there you are.
- Retro indeed. Tiny too. It’s funny how the games of our youth used to take up so much space but now can be played on today’s smaller technology.
- That’s the great thing about this country. You can protest even if your protest is st00pid. Knot like mI spelking is all that gr8t but come on. TRNing the engrish language inside-out is sill-E.
