actually two class acts one them from the Ump and the other from the Pitcher.

The pitcher Armando Galarraga when the call was blown didn’t explode, didn’t make a giant fuss, pointed out that we are all human.

The umpire Jim Joyce admitted his mistake, showed regret and remorse.

If pols showed this much sense then their mistakes would not be as fatal.

And as for those who are so outraged I’m with Chris Murphy, get over it.

Sorting out the stuff

Actually crashed on the couch while sorting though everything. I seem to have mislaid an e-mail address from the Prince Pizza I have to double check my brother’s car later.

There are quite a few posts from Georgia that are still to be written and videos to be uploaded about:

The Doraville reception, Tysinger reception, several interviews, Stone Mountain, Prince pizza coming home, A write up about Liz Carter, a write up on Cory Ruth, The monastery and the World of Coca Cola, a general interviews with people post, the round up, maybe a day by day post rundown. I’ll be getting all of this stuff done during the course of the week.

As far as what I’ve already done to review:

Other than that I didn’t get much down down there.

As we see the latest version of Dice-K goes wild:

Matsuzaka suffered the loss as the Kansas City Royals defeated the Red Sox 4-3 at Fenway Park. He had lasted only 4 2/3 innings and allowed only three runs on two hits. The problem, however, was that he matched a career high with eight walks and posted only one strikeout. He also threw a wild pitch and hit a batter.

So I presume that means I can come back.

On the heels of my concerns about being allowed back to Massachusetts over my sedition of disagreeing with this president, a vote for a more longterm exile comes from an unexpected source for a different reason:

Since you brought up baseball stuff, since you left the Red Sox have put a little winning streak together. Not to mention that Dice-K was so happy that you were leaving he pitched a near no-hitter on Saturday.

Why not stay a little longer in SC, or perhaps someone will pay to have to travel to another location.

Stay away from Massachusetts! the Red Sox Nation needs your help!

Apparently the Sox have not lost a game since the day I left and did it again

The Boston Red Sox’s recent purple patch continued as they downed the American League East leaders the Tampa Bay Rays 2-0.

David Ortiz was inspirational with a two-run double while Jon Lester was frugal, allowing one hit in six innings as the Red Sox won their seventh from the last eight.

Could the removal of all those fedoras really be making the difference for the old Town team? Well if they beat Tampa tonight I’ll wager Red Sox nation will do all they can to keep me away from my plane on Saturday.
