Back from Crabtown....
So how about Wily Mo Peña? I haven't finished catching up on stuff, so I wonder what Dawn had to say about WMP....or Lugo against the Yanks, for that matter!
My fantasy team won without my help...although I could have pulled Harang off the bench for Sunday's start. oops.
My wife didn't mention to me that she paid $10 for internet access in the room Saturday before she headed off to her conference. So I was stuck watching the endless NFL draft instead of surfing the Web. At least later in the afternoon I hit the sports museum they have right next to OPCY. Ten bucks for a couple of floors' worth of exhibits. Mostly Babe Ruth...the Orioles...the Colts. Ravens stuff seems too recent to be museum-ified.
Went to Virginia Friday to see Erika's grandmother, who's got some Alzheimer's. Although, the multiple-tellings of the stories make it easier to remember the details. Our biggest fear was that she might not recognize me after I emerged from the use of her bathroom. That was allayed, though. But since I'd forgotten contact lens solution, I was attending to my lenses at her sink for a couple of extra minutes. She was pretty nice, and really appreciated the visit, and that we re-arranged her furniture for her.
Virginia has an exit for something that I think was called Backlick Road off I-95. Ewwww... Of course, there's also Pohick and Powhite (as in Trash?)....so let the Confederacy-bashing begin! (Cue "dueling banjos") At least they have leaves on their trees. That was mildly saddening, driving back up and having the leaves get smaller and smaller until they were blank in NY and CT.

It's a Baltimore Sports Legends museum, why are you surprised that a young team like the Ravens would be in there, especially with a championship under their belt? :D
Pohick & Powhite? BAHAHAHAHAHA!
Lugo: he's a freaking doofus when he's got a bat or glove in his possession. when he's running, he's a flipping genius. that doesn't change. although that Karstens has some kind of bad karma, managing to get his leg broken on a rare Lugo hit. what are the odds??
WMP: grand slam, check! next 49 at bats, 0-for-Whiffy. =P
good things with either of those two are flukes. except for Lugo when he's running & WMP when he finally connects bat to ball for a moon shot.
Bart, it's just I think of museums as being for old stuff -- like the Colts. I saw a couple of typos on the exhibits. Mike Cuellar's name was Cueller in a couple of spots.
Again...it's a Baltimore museum. We're lucky you didn't find more typos.
