Shea Hillenbrand And A Lemur

The Second Coming — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 04:29:30 +0000

I just came across this story and I can’t believe that more blogs did not pick up on it. Former Major Leaguer Shea Hillenbrand’s son was bitten by a pet lemur in their home some weeks ago. From this report, I get word that the Hillenbrand clan planned on opening up a petting zoo in their backyard, a petting zoo that they hoped would include a monkey-type thing that looked like it took a few too many greenies. After hearing this story I have one question, was the lemur’s name John Gibbons? Now, here is a video of what Roger Clemens looked like when he first saw the 15 year old Mindy McCready.

Kenny G and Miguel Batista Make Sweet Music Together

The Second Coming — Sun, 09 Mar 2008 23:22:38 +0000

Deadspin spotted this story from the Seattle Times that details one Mariner’s infatuation with the one, mere mortals know as Kenny G. Bastista has always seemed to be little too cultured, especially for a Major Leaguer, but it really crosses a line when you develop some fanhood for a saxophone player with a perm. Kenny G should at no time be associated with sports, so I was disappointed in Batista, but I just think of some of the locker room talk that will directed his way. This will be especially true after reading the final line of this article.

“But this time, he was the one receiving instead of giving.”

Burn. Well done Geoff Baker.
