AL series had anything to do w/ Donnie Moore's suicide. :(

But I still love you.

Sure, it had to hurt. But haunt a man for the rest of his life -- and lead to suicide? I was so angry when that was suggested. I'm not angry anymore (nor am I mad at you, not at all) but I thought that was the most stupid thing any baseball writer could say. Fortunately a few of them stood up and said "bullshit."

Baseball happens, man. Henderson was a monster. It was his day that day, not Moore's. Baseball just happens, and everyone who plays it knows it. Donnie Moore didn't kill himself because of a home run.

Sigh.

How do you feel about the Pads this year? How do they look? Me? I'm just glad Tim Salmon's on the roster! He's my boy.
