Three houses in three counties…that’s what we’re down to. I pretty much think we’re looking at East Fishkill (Dutchess) and Patterson (Putnam) but won’t rule out Yorktown Heights (Westchester). All three homes would be great, but the Patterson home is closest to the train station (3.7 miles and 5 minutes) versus (23.1 miles and 25 [...]

Is there anything better at a ballgame than catching a foul ball?

I recall my first one…well, only one for that matter. It was off the bat of 1983 AL Rookie of the Year (any one remember?). Yes, of course you remember this Chicago White Sox player. Not it was not Harold Baines….nor Rusty Kuntz….and am sure that was your second guess. Yes, it was Ron Kittle. [...]
Shane’s first and last game at Yankee Stadium

Yankees 3, Red Sox 2. The score did not matter although it was nice to see a Yankees win. We left after the 7th inning stretch and ‘Take Me Out To the Ballgame’ and ‘God Bless America’. He was starting to lose it a little, but c’mon…he’s not even four yet. So yes, this meant [...]

Playing modest hands (Poker)…like A,10

When you play mediocre hands, you’re asking for trouble. Of course at times, any two cards can pay off, but largely playing such hand can get you into trouble. Had I had $1,000 in front of me during this hand, this would have been disastrous….or would it?
Playing in my game this past weekend, I’m in [...]

Well, we finally got our home listed. It was a tough choice to select an agent. We settled on Mary Ann Harrell who coincidentally lives in our neighborhood. Time will tell how well she does for us. We met with seven agents altogether, while most meet with two before selecting an agent. Again, there were [...]

There’s no “I” in team…Favre running a penalty lap, nice

I was on this invention called the World Wide Web today. Not sure it’ll last, this ‘www’ thing, I think it’s just a fad. Anyway, was going to look up something else and stumbled upon this story about how Brett Favre, the new New York Jets quarterback had to run a lap as a penalty [...]
Managing a baseball team
Posted in Uncategorized on August 11, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I managed my team, the Georgia Cherokees for six years (2000-early 2006) and accumulating nearly 200 wins as a manager, compiling a .700 winning percentage. I miss managing and very well may do it again one day. Coming back to Atlanta and being ‘just’ a player has been an adjustment. In Los Angeles, it was [...]
