The Hawkins signing certainly couldn’t hurt. I was worried about Luis Vizcaino leaving … for about five minutes.
Besides, on a personal note, “the Hawk” brings a smile to my face. You see, that was the nickname we gave to a college buddy of mine, who is from the Midwest and a Chicago Cubs fan. The reason? His inability to close the deal with girls.
At the time, Latroy was making a mess out in the bullpen himself trying to wrap up games (hopefully, the Yanks aren’t getting that version of him). We all thought of him as the worst closer in the game, except for our friend of course. Guys, if a girl asks you to take a walk with her on the beach during post-exams that’s about the biggest hint you’re ever going to get…
Oh well, I’m off to do some Christmas shopping. Maybe this year, instead of the usual gifts, I’ll buy a college football bowl game, seeing as even the San Diego County Credit Union now has one.
That prestigious contest, known as the Poinsettia will kick-off a bowl season with too many games to count. Ok, so there are 32, but that means that over half of Division 1 teams are involved.
Seriously, what’s next? The Sports Musings Bowl presented by Sports Musings in accordance with Word Press? What a joke.
