Kay’s job is to call the game in an entertaining way, for the benefit of the fans. He was an ass to criticize the Giant announcers, as was Steiner. That said, I would not cheer for Manny if I were Dodger fan, just as there are elected officials of our government I will not support or respect while always wanting the itself nation to prosper and succeed. I think your conclusion that the fact that most people don’t bother to sort these things out—-which is undeniably true—-proves that PED use is “trivial” doesn’t follow. Low priority to most people? That I’ll agree with, absolutely. But low priority and trivial are very different things. Posted 07/02 at 12:48 PM

“Raimus might be trying to defect.” Isn’t it “Ramius”? Or did I miss a joke? Posted 07/02 at 05:09 PM

Wow, I copied and pasted that directly from the IMDB memorable quotes page, which means (a) whoever typed that got it wrong; and (b) I shouldn’t trust IMDB. Oops. Posted 07/02 at 05:43 PM

“because he’s a d*ck,” Sheffield went to Oregon? What? Posted 07/02 at 10:04 PM

Thanks for the Cheap Trick reference, Craig. Great band that simply has fun and brings joy to its fans. BTW, they have a new album out, and while it’s not “Live At Budokan,” it has some good songs. @Dr. Paisley - funny! Posted 07/02 at 10:35 PM

I don’t recall any reaction to Sheffield during the Subway Series. He had waited til after the Tiger’s trade to shoot off his mouth about Torre which put him on ignore with Yank fans.
From what I hear from TigerFanRob, he and his wife were a big part of the Motown community, and it seems there was disappointment about his trade to the Mets, where he seems to be the only one on the offense side left.
