My Morning in Exile

So I get to take the kids for their H1N1 vaccinations today. That should be a barrel of laughs. On the bright side, they're spending the night at my folks' house, so I'll only have to hear their complaining about it until I drop them off around dinner time. After that, Mrs. Shyster and I grab some fabulous Columbus cuisine and sample the hot Columbus nightlife. Well, what else are we gonna do? We're all through with "The Wire" DVDs.

  • On the heels of his Cy Young ballot yesterday, you won't be surprised to learn that Keith Law has Carl Pavano at number one on his annual list of Top 50 free agents.


  • Tim Lincecum's agent, employer and publicist are very, very sorry for his actions.


  • Gammons and Edes break down the Red Sox' offseason. They'll return to pretending to be national as opposed to local columnists later today.


  • Aaron Heilman will definitely be coming out of the pen in Arizona.


  • Stephen Strasburg hurts his knee; Matt Wieters called to lay hands.


  • Paul Lo Duca: he may be old, he may have been a steroid creation, he may have messed around behind his wife's back with a teenage girl and he may have been caught up in gambling allegations, but . . . wait, I lost my train of thought here. Anyone wanna go get a sandwich?


  • As for "The Wire," the best thing I got out of it is the certainty that my recent decision to stop watching any non-ballgame-related television was a good one. Unless they bring back "Barney Miller" or something, there's no way any show can top it, so why waste my time?

    The differences in my rankings of the seasons are so slight that they could almost be reversed and I wouldn’t have much trouble. 

    Season one was outstanding. They all were. Season two is obviously the odd one, but it had all kinds of things to recommend it.  Five may have been over the top, but it almost became operatic because of that.

    So happy that you found The Wire.  No other TV comes close.  As for me, I’ll take season 4, then 3, then 2, then 1, then 5.
