Let me just thank the women of SOHO and TRIBECA for a wonderful show this afternoon at lunch time. 75 degrees, sunshine, tank tops and shorts make for a fabulous lunch time experience and the pizza was good as well.

 

The toughest part of the day was retuning back to the office to serve the people of the City of New York but upon my return I saw a few things of interest that I thought I’d comment on:

 

Hugs and ass grabs to SNY for the hiring of Harold Reynolds. BASEBALL TONIGHT has not been the same since Reynolds left. I feel sorry for Karl Ravich as he is burden with Larry the Cable Guys twin brother in John Kruck, the whinny Tim Kurkjian, Franchise Killer Steve Phillips. HR will be a studio analyst with Lee Mazzilli and the insufferable Matt Yalloff who must be a cousin of the Skill Sets to keep his SNY gig.

 

I swear I never laid a hand on Jimmy Rollins.

 

The secret is out the Tampa Bay Rays mascot is a girl.

 

Joe Smith goes off on the Bleacherites at Wrigley Field. Looks like the Old Style was flowing as usual in the bleachers as the Cub fan is drunk on barley and hops and winning baseball. But remember Cubs fan your season always ends badly. Bottoms up ass hats.

 

Interesting Q & A with David Wright:

 

Q: Which one of these sounds like the best date:

 

a) Surfing the North Shore with Cameron Diaz

 

b) Ghost Whispering with Jennifer Love Hewitt

 

c) Working the counter at Mooby’s with Rosario Dawson

 

d) Skee Ball at Chuck E. Cheese with Paul LoDuca

 

DW: Definitely not Paul Lo Duca [laughs]. Um … I’d probably say surfing the North Shore.

  

The only wrong answer of course is D DW goes with A good choice I myself would choose B

 

Over at Baseball Happenings the AL MVP, CY YOUNG and ROY numbers are up for this week my picks are as follows:

  AL MVP 1. Manny Ramirez 2. Raul Ibanez 3. Chone Figgins It’s time for people to get past the whole “Manny Being Manny” and acknowledge Manny for being right with Joe DiMaggio, Jimmy Foxx and Rogers Hornsby as the greatest right handed hitter in baseball history. AL Cy Young 1. Felix Hernandez 2. Jonathan Papelbon 3. Zack Greinke I’m Ridin’ With the King and his 24K/9BB in 30 innings pitched. Papelbon is THE BEST closer in the game (sorry Highlander fans) and Greinke just continues to become a great comeback story AL R O Y  1. Evan Longoria 2. David Murphy 3. Clete Thomas I was going to give all three votes to Longoria but I figured give Murphy and Thomas a little getting used to playing second fiddle to the great Rays rookie.  

NOTE: The kiss of death for Clete Thomas as he was sent to Triple A with Curtis Granderson coming off the DL
