Nothing better than a warm bath accompanied by a good book, a good dog, and good glass of wine. |
|
| Music |
Anything under the sun that makes me feel good - James Dean, Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett. Love the new stuff too...Journey gets me movin', and I'm lovin' that Taylor Hicks fella. |
|
| Movies |
Beethoven and Gladiator |
|
| Television |
Television is no good these days. I do like that Horatio Cane on CSI:Miami though - keen, smooth, and smug...kind of like a modern day Columbo with sunglasses. And I dig sunglasses. |

About me:
I was born in 1944 in Tampa, Florida. Mother was a natural righthander, so God crafted the perfect matchup and produced a man with baseball encapsulating his entire left side of the brain. I haven't yet let myself down, although I know I could do better.
The hitting career stalled - didn't have the ped's we have now back then - so I found my way through management. I don't know if you knew this or not, but I'm 3rd all time in wins some 35 years after my last game as an infielder. Did good with the White Sox and A's and still have work to do with the Cardinals. Gotta keep the edge at all times, which is why my coffee of choice is "leaded".
If you have a question, it's about baseball, okay? None of this he said-she said, none of this 'well, he must have cheated'... BALONEY (soy baloney). We're here to play baseball and win baseball games. We work hard. We put in the effort. We pay our dues. So quit with the unfounded accusations and lets ask questions about the game.
Anything else?

I don't want to ruin the party, skip, but we just had another starter go down. Things aren't looking too good for '08.

You make one more comment about me and my "desire" in the papers, and I'll shove your prize-winning Golden Retriever so far up your ass, people won't be able to tell where you start and he ends.

Bad enough that you have to make a fool of me with that dumbass picture, but then you name me after Walt Weiss. What kind of crap is that? If you come anywhere near me with that "Smooch Your Pooch" sweater I swear I'm dropping one right on the carpet.

I swear to God, LaRussa, if you step up to me in a press conference this year like you did last summer, I will crush you like a bug and feed you to your dogs.

Tony, why are you always giving the ARF gigs to Bruce Hornsby? C'Mon, me and the News need some work. Power of Love was better than anything that hack ever did.

I'm glad to see that you printed out my report to use as toilet paper. Are you trying to set a record for most steroid abusers managed, because I think you've already got it sewn up.

You really should watch it with the steroid users. Just looking out for my friend. By the way, Kenny still insists on pitching with tar on his hand. Some kids never learn.

Hey Tony, I just went out deer hunting with Pat and nabbed me a nice buck. How about I bring you some nice sized steaks when I come to Florida this spring. Pansy.

If I had played when Whitey Herzog was the manager, I would have been a star. Go ahead, mock me in your little book. Just because I wasn't a roided out freak, I was in the doghouse. Screw you.

I should have taken you up on your offer at the '89 All Star game. Boy was I stupid. I'd have retired in the 600s!
