To see a guy who is financially set for life returning to school to finish his degree really warms my heart.<br /><br />This doesn't surprise me entirely: I know from colleagues and other students that SS was always went to class and took his studies seriously, even as the draft was approaching. <br /><br />Who knows what the future will bring for SS?

The truly great ones (Dickey, Berra, Fisk, Bench, I.Rodriguez, maybe Mauer) are lucky & seem to duck the major injury (Cochrane) or horror (Campaneris, Munson) that befell others. <br /><br />The Twins may yet regret trading Ramos, but wanted a chance at the 'brass ring' this year, so they made the deal.BinMnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-1035977695307501512010-09-28T18:08:48.733-04:002010-09-28T18:08:48.733-04:00whoa . . . that's the first I've heard abo...whoa . . . that's the first I've heard about Flores.
