Hero & Zero of the Week PDF Print E-mail
Friday, 30 July 2010 15:28

For the HERO of the Week, how 'bout Nationals Pitcher Miguel Batista?!     Tuesday night, a bunch of fans, (WAAAY more than usual) went to the Nats game because Steven Strasburg was supposed to pitch.    However Strasburg had a bad shoulder, and a last minute decision was made to hold him out of the lineup.   Miguel Batista took his place, and was booed by the HOME fans, before he'd even thrown a pitch!   He pitched a decent game, and was gracious about it afterwards.   He said he understood the fans reaction, that it was like expecting Miss America and getting Miss Iowa.    Then either he realized or someone told him he had insulted Iowa and their beauty pageant winner, so he made a public apology----AND sent flowers to Miss Iowa!     Maybe he saw a picture of her----she's definitely worth sending flowers to!!
 
For the ZERO, we'll choose Cowboys ROOKIE receiver Dez Bryant.   I emphasize 'Rookie' because as a first year player he is supposed to do 'certain things'.  Okay, some of this hazing can get out of line, no reason to tie him up to the goalpost and throw stuff at him while he is blindfolded.    But a veteran receiver asked Dez to carry his luggage---and Dez flatly refused!    I wonder what Dean Smith would have thought of that.    Freshman were ALWAYS last on the 'ranking', getting water after everyone else, stuff like that.   And I imagine a lot of teams do things like that.   However evidently Dez is too good for that.   NOT the best way for a Rookie to break onto a team and be respected by his teammates.   
 
Happy weekend to all.

EASY choice for Hero of the Week.   The New York Yankees, whether you love them or you hate them, (and I've done some of both!) are probably the most storied and successful franchise in sports history.    And their most recent owner, George Steinbrenner, (who as everyone knows passed away a few days ago), was one of the most powerful and winning owners anywhere.   Like the Yankees, he had a lot of good AND bad things about him, but one thing was always constant, he wanted to WIN, and expected nothing less.   Many owners in sports today could take a lesson from that.    Yes, he was difficult to work for, and had his moments, but he also did very good things, which at times were not talked about as much.    Upon seeing a story about a Policeman or Fireman being killed in the line of duty, he would immediately send the widow a check, for their kids' college education.   He did things like this frequently.     Again, like him or hate him, he is the HERO of the Week.
 
For the ZERO, let's stay with baseball and choose the All Star Game, which has become just a glorified exhibition game, but for some unknown reason, determines which league has Home Field advantage in the World Series.     Seems a strange way to do it, as opposed to which team has the best record, but they're trying to draw interest in it.   I don't think it's working, this past week's All Star game had the lowest ratings in history.

Sox Shut Out Tribe for Opening Day Win PDF Print E-mail

(CHICAGO, IL) Mark Buehrle of the Chicago White Sox made his eighth Opening Day start a most memorable one with the defensive play of the year in the fifth inning on a ball that Louis Marson richoced off of the pitcher's ankle.  Buehrle ran the ball down in foul territory, and without thinking, tossed it with his glove between his legs to Paul Konerko who barehanded it for the putout.  It may have been 1-3 in the scorebook, but for the sellout crowd of 38, 935 it was a play for the ages.

Chicago went on to win 6-0 over Cleveland on Home Runs by Alex Rios, Konerko, and couple of fielder's choices.  Buehrle went seven innings, giving only up only three hits and retiring the last ten batters he faced.
