Good news is he can still end his career with the Giants.
It'll just have to be the Yomiuri Giants... |

Can we get him back in Pittsburgh? Roids and all? And bring Bobby Bo out of retirement and give us back our "Killer Bees."
Shit! If we don't do something with our baseball team we'll be tied next year with the Phillies (1933-48) for longest losing season streak. 
I'm SO PISSED about this that you know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna post Dennis Leary's Asshole song in the YouTube thread.

Thats how pissed off the dukes gonna be!
I'm gonna get the Duke, and John Cassavetes,
and Lee Marvin, and Sam Peckinpah, and a case of whiskey,
and drive down to Texas and say.....

Well, pdog I guess that would be something--in a way--to be reunited with Leyland and Andy Van Slyke!

Well think about the govt. and how it functions and how much money and efoort it uses to get very little done. Then apply that to MLB or any business... Shit, I'm amazed every day that humans survived this long... |

George Mitchell is getting paid millions for an ongoing, open-ended investigation that has turned up nothing.
Oh.. and I'm not supposed to mention this, but Mitchell will quietly slipping into New York city tomorrow to privately meet with a firm about investing $150 million of his "hard earned" cabbage into a Hedge Fund
yay! The do-nothing rich get richer |

In one last act of defiance Barry will return to Pittsburgh to hit his last home run in a visting uniform. Then retire after the game. Just like the legend.

Moonie, Highwire Rob, maybe yins can help me out here, but I do not believe there is any historical landmark placed here. Shit, there are tons of lesser events that have historical landmarks placed. Babe's last home run in a huge part of American pop-culture and history.
Anyway that Oakland wop's grandchildren lost out on a ton of money because he donated the ball.
