Family, especially in KC on my mother's side of the fam...

As far as baseball I DID follow the Dodgers, but stopped following baseball altogether after the steroid scandal. Truthfully it started getting boring for me anyways...

I still follow the Dodgers, but I don't follow baseball as a whole as much as I used to.

Seems like anymore it's hit a home run or strikeout. Not a lot in between. Not much strategy anymore.

Unable to comment on tonight's Pacers/Lakers game...

Had to get myself to safety after there was a huge fight in the stands at the game I was at tonight... A fucking melee.

You might hear about it on the news. Riley @ Washington HS... South Bend.

Yeah, I feel that pain. Makes me long for players like Brett Butler and Rod Carew that would've destroyed these shifts. Can't be bothered to go the other way or bunt for a hit, not manly enough.

Slaps, hair-pulling, the full nine...

Why would I hear about that?

Doesn’t look like it is worthy of national news to me.
I would assume he means security issues and lack thereof at some of these youth games are going to come under scrutiny after a man in Vermont died in a melee a few days ago, it makes sense these fracases may be more likely attract media attention than normal for now.

George Brett would have hit 420 if they shifted on him

Well, do I need to state the obvious?

Teams don’t shift on players who use the whole field.

So they wouldn’t shift on Brett.
