          Horrible. Poor guy must be bored.

          But seriously, who cares about the article? I'm more interested in finding out how the Utah field crew-chief got his name.

          "Paint costs money," said crew chief Schmedley Anderson.

              I think I started a Dick Harmon Greatest Hits thread somewhere around here. This would be a worthy entry.

                      You missed this little disclaimer at the beginning of the article:


                      Warning: This is a fictional exaggeration, taking the hype we've endured all summer and taking it over the top. Gilding the lily, so to speak.
                      Oh, and in case you were wondering ...

                          I know that! :slap:

                          It's not funny when I have to explain a joke! (In case you are wondering Jeff & Indy, a not-so-funny joke becomes a Greek tragedy when an explanation is required).
