As far as I'm concerned, baseball season is over. Fuck it. I don't care who wins between the Yankees and whoever else is in it. I'm busy with work, and baseball seems a waste of my time.
That said, the Twins - Tigers game 163 was perhaps the best baseball game I've ever seen in my life. Period. Too bad the Twins had to go play the Yankees.
Yes, I'm a pissed off Cub fan. I'm cooling my heals and waiting to see what happens in the off season. Or whether it will be another off off season.
I'm hearing Bradley to the Tigers for Jeremy Bonderman. Thoughts on that? I'm all over it. Fuck me, I'd trade him to the Tigers for an old Bill Freehan jersey.
I've been busy being busy, and I try not to post trash...so I hope you understand my "leave of absence." Someday, I'll again have something worthy or witty to post, and when I do, I hope someone is here to read it.
Or not.

I had not yet heard that rumor, but I would love it. Not that Bonderman has been lighting it up, but he is from here. And by here, I mean the town I live in. A gal who trains some of my wife's horses went to high school (he did not finish) with him, and I could probably have an in with him.
Otherwise, nice to see a Shermrant, again with the waiting and the boredom that is the off season, and winter in general.
Here's an odd question.
Do you want to die in the off season, amid a good season, amid a bad season, or does the timing regarding baseball not matter to you. I would ask it at the view, but it's hard to get a rise out of any of them anymore.
Glad your busy. Keep in touch. See if you can work out the Melee, it would be great to see you.
I can't root for the Cubs next year if hasbro is on the team. Until he is officially gone I am also a bit apathetic.
Go Ducks!
Hoping for a Ducks Blackhawks conference showdown.
I Can't stand it, Abreu, Ibanez, hell put Dunn on the Brewers and see if they ain't in the playoffs. Milton='ed absolutely nothing and they could be eating his dung for the next two years. I wondered today when I heard about the bankruptcy if that would somehow get the Ricketts out of his contract. Wouldn't that be novel "The Bradley Bankruptcy" as in hire someone who took you for a ride and you can't afford him anymore just declare BK. What about that young Decarlo. Is it Melee time yet, tell them F's from boystown to get the info up, I'm ready to commit gotta go wife caught me writing again. J Salzeider
no worries on the lack of posts Sherm...there's always Snitty's blog for my daily amusement....the melee is looking like a possibility for me. I hafta come up with a sweet nickname for a real estate dick that rakes off a machine before I get there...
Real estate Dick
The Melee is live pitching with wood bats, not a pitching machine so you can do your best Milton impersonation and take as many walks as possible.
Let me know ASAP, we have 17 players that want to play. We need to figure to either bring 2 teams or scale down to one team. The sooner you figure it out the better.
An evening at Don and Charlies is on the doket. Wendell Kim will probably by dere and you can ask him as many Dusty Baker questions as you want.
PS- How about Dick Wad for your name?
And please ask Wendell about his wife. How many pitchers do we have of the 17 woodknockers you're counting? I can see the pitching line now, Decarlo, Decarlo 2, Decarlo 3, Buss. Do we have a catcher, we could invite Bruce the porn star? Salzeider
from experience I can tell you that if you have 17 clown punchers committed right now, about 12 will actually show, so you are right where you'd want to be 3 months out. I won't know for sure until Thanksgiving. If you have too many at that point I'll just fly over for a night to kick it at D & C's and ask wavin' Wendell about Sherm's inappropriate shower time staring act.
I could throw a game...I will at the 35+ world series in 2 weeks for a real team, so I figure I should be a ringer with the fantasy campers and dentists.
Dave the ringer....now THAT has some nickname potential.
also, my neighbor and I fashioned a laser-guided drill press for hollowing out the barrel of wood bats, so's they can be altered "Sammy" style, with some good old fashioned wine bottle stoppers. Deliver your bats to me now and miss the Christmas rush.
the ringer has already been taken by smitty: as in king ringer, coffeee bean ringer, p smitty diddy ringer, picked off first base ringer, etc etc. I would go more with "inflated stats obvious" or "cap'n happening". this shit ain't that funny so I'm off.
I can't remember ever showering with Wendell Kim, but hey, maybe I did and it was unremarkable. Whatever.
I'm considering the melee...but it's very very very very unlikely that I will be able to go. Which is too bad for you with all that pitching and no catchers...
Perhaps Mark D could pitch. With that arm, he could catch for himself.
Smitty -- two words...Dee Caf.
The 8 commitments I have are solid. There is a group from camp of 8 more that supposedly all travel together. I asked their ringleader how solid their commitments are and haven't heard back. John Ammandes wants in also plus I got some local guys that want in.
Sherm- It is only Friday, Sat and Sunday- it ain't a whole week and if you just came our for Sat and Sunday that would be good too. That should at least drop a very out of the very, very, very, very unlikely. Is the family OK Sherm?
I like Ringer, imagine the fun we will have if the Ringer goes 0 fer. Ringer means has some legs, as in the outfield. We have 24 first baseman Ringer.
Family's good -- in fact, in case any of you didn't know (and why would you if I haven't mentioned it?) We have another new addition...my daughter delivered a beautiful baby girl eleven weeks ago. Emily will most likely be a Cub fan, as she's already extremely fond of Grandpa.
I can't come to the camp because I'm so busy -- starting up this business has been brutal. I chose the worst economy ever to do it, because I love and challenge. And am a moron. Plus, I'm not a ringer. More of a "leaner."

Just one work day Sherm, just one work day.
What is your core business?
everyday is a work day...
I'm starting my own Eye Doctor Shoppe Online. I call it E-eye, E-eye O.
Not really. Tell you someday over a cold beverage.
Smittys Alive!
Cubs stole the Rangers hitting coach!
We may be getting started for next season.
Time for the Melee in January.
Smitty.....and I'm in LA this weekend.
Thank Christ! Smitty is Alive! I will hunt you down.
Sherm, you ok? I mean so much new material with the milk toast ricketts family assuming ownership and all the b-jobs going on from the powers that be over at 1060 w Addison.
Sherm is busy trying to rearrange his schedule for the Melee in Mesa.
1 Week to go and still nothing?

I'm thinking you have something by now, and enquiring minds want to know.
WHERE IS SHERM?
Has anyone seen Sherm?
It's been a year, Time for more wisdom.
Re-energize the batteries and mouth up.
