I could’ve sworn I’d seen him wear it on at least another occasion before that most recent players weekend. But I wouldn’t want to bet my life on it. It’s just that when I saw it most recently I wasn’t surprised.
By the way, is Dingler’s absolutely awesome helmet worn only on special occasions? Of course, I guess if he wore it every day that would destroy the dignity of the game, unlike gambling.
One of my old buds from Detroit that I met in Tucson ended up moving down to Clearwater, Florida. And he likes Tropicana Field and is forgiving of all its deficits because the heat and humidity is insufferable and it’s comfortable inside. He also says he’s never had a problem getting a ticket.
So aside from the fact that it’s raining right now according to both of my weather apps, it looks like after ceasing for a while it then will then rain again around game time which is disheartening. But it would also be disheartening to have an indoor stadium reminiscent of the expansive catacombs out of one of Ridley Scott’s Alien movies.
Every club in the AL Central that played today won and every team in the AL West that played today lost. I’m not sure how often that happens, but I noticed it and thought it odd.
