God bless the shortstops...

I was listening to ESPN Radio's The Herd this morning, and the host was telling a story about former Boston Red Sox centerfielder Nomar Garciaparra, and how he and another guy saved two women, one unconscious, who had fallen into Boston Harbor. (Read the story here.) The host, Colin Cowherd, said one of the funniest things I've heard on the radio in a long time: between New York Yankee shortstop Alex Rodriguez saving a 10-year-old boy from being hit by a car earlier this year, and Nomar's heroics, Boston now leads the nation in lives saved by shortstops.

I know, it doesn't seem funny now, but this morning I was laughing my rear end off!

It's the little things, you know?

It the TIMING! A MLB SS hasta have good TIMING! These things never happen to catchers!

By the way, thanks for the info about that SocSt. meeting in Laguna Beach hosted by McDougal - Littell. Wonder why OUR rep didn't invite us? Maybe buying 2000 texts is not enough?
