Funny, I had completely forgotten about the Don Zimmer incident. What a
weird thing.
Schilling is most definitely a fun guy to have play here and seems
really smart (not to mention a good pitcher) - he goes on baseball chat
groups and actually talks shop with fans. He also sometimes calls up
the local baseball talk radio to voice his opinion on things. Takes a
while to get him on, though, because they have to verify that it's
actually him and not some psycho imposter. :-)
A-Rod and Jeter are clearly great players. And you can't really ignore
the Mariano Riviera factor. Wow. I'll still never get over that
Clemens is now playing for NY though, and that he's going into the Hall
of Fame under that team. That one still smarts. He had his best days
with us!
Ah well :-)
