Absenteeism
Posted by Carl on December 30, 2006
Sorry about the recent lack of posting; one of the kids is sick and quite frankly, there hasn’t been a whole lot to blog on.
Having said that, you’ve got just a few more days to enter the blog contest - winners will be notified next Friday (January 5, 2007).
Speaking of the independent leagues (Doh!!!) over at Beerleaguer there’s this brief note:
No shortage of independent league graduates
“Where would the Phillies’ farm system be without the indie leagues?” asks Beerleaguer senior correspondent Martin Smith. “I’m sure I’m missing some, but here are the guys looking for Ottawa playing time who spent time in indie ball: Victor Hall; Brian Mazone; Jim Crowell; Kane Davis; Jeff Farnsworth; Jim Rushford; Pedro Swann; Gary Burnham; Evan Tartagia; Charlie Weatherby; Greg
Jacobs; Allen Davis; Tim McClaskey; Nick Mattioni. That’s a large number.”
In completely unrelated news, I hit a patch of bare pavement while skiing this morning (just a dusting of snow beneath the underpass near Mackenzie King Estate), and did a little pavement surfing before falling. Felt like I broke every bone in my body.
Must.
Lie.
Down.
