This Time (as in Next Game) it's Personal (as in Personnel)

What does "Stomly Pimentel" mean to you? Until Yoshi told me he's the next big thing, I thought it was a spelling mistake. Stomly is slated to pitch against Boston College, my alma mater, on Feb 26. It was exciting to hear about Stomly. It was more exciting to hear from Yoshi. The most exciting thing would be to hear about Yoshi, but he doesn't talk about himself; which only makes him more interesting. He should sell Dos Equis.

Speaking of selling, I don't know if I'm buying this:

What the blood clot? It's creepy. Things you don't do if you're a Yankee:

1. Pee standing up.
2. Finish Sudoku
3. Hangout with Red Sox players, then talk about how rad you think they are.

Numbers one and two need no further explanation. So let's dedicate a few thoughts to number three. A-Rod complementing a Red Sox player is like gushing about how awesome your ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend is. A-Rod complementing a Red Sox player is like using gasoline to extinguish a fire. A-Rod complementing a Red Sox player is like complementing Cary on his aim (ref:http://gregandyoshi.blogspot.com/2011/01/phew-adrian-gonzalez-can-throw.html). A-Rod complementing a Rod Sox player is like exactly what baseball doesn't need -- niceties being thrown back and forth between the greatest rivals in professional sports. In short, A-Rod complementing a Red Sox player is yet another example of how A-Rod is attempting to ruin baseball.

Yoshi wasn't there last Tuesday when I had dinner with my friend, Paul. Paul is from Boston. We never talk about the Red Sox. We're almost like Greg and Yoshi. But, then I heard something: Our (me and Yoshi) mutual friend, Scott, is having sessions with Yoshi. They're not talking about the Red Sox either, but they are talking. We're going to keep an eye on this.


I think that covers it. Great job Greg! Keep up the good work. We can't wait to see what's next.
