In a homage to my favorite part of the Colbert Report, I present to you my "Dead to Me" and "On Notice" lists regarding baseball and other matters (although I will leave out politics so we doesn't get too heated.)
Dead to Me:

  • Delino DeShields Roger Kahn
  • Kevin Malone
  • Bill Plaschke
  • Jim Bowden Jose Guillen
  • Teams that don't wear gray on the road (unless they wear powder blue)
  • Pitted fruits Joe Buck
  • Brussels sprouts
  • Rodney Peete Verizon Mobile Web Service Bob Brenly

On Notice:

  • Brett Tomko Odalis Perez Larry Bowa The Habsburg Dynasty
  • Ozzie Guillen George Washington University Juan Pierre

  • Jim Tracy The Caray Family
  • Turbo Tax Tech Support Epson printers The Brennaman Family
  • The Los Angeles MTA Jimmy Clausen
  • Matt Vasgersian
  • Gary Cohen University of Arizona football fans

 

Feel free to add any. Just keep it clean and keep politicians out of it.

Tim McCarver. He died the day he opined "the last thing the Yankees need here is a Grand Slam" when the team was trying to rally from a large deficit. His point was that grandslams were rally killers because they stopped offensive momentum. Lost in his logic was they also provided maximum offensive value. Tim McCarver, patron saint of the five-run home run.

Joe Morgan "on notice" -- you have a big, big heart Mr. Timmermann.

I didn't start out this way, but after the whole DePo "you're in you're out" farce, the McCourts are "on notice" for me.

The person who have me whatever horrible ailment has me in bed would also make my list, but I'm worried it's someone I love.

Dead to me:
Bob's list is good, but substitute Irish writers for brussel sprouts. Maybe if, in my youth, brussel sprouts had been forced on me, instead of Irish writers, this wouldn't be necessary. But it is. Your dad was drunk, and the nuns were mean to you? I've heard this story before, I think.

14 Yikes! Irish writers? A broad statement indeed, laddie! Flannery O'Connor? Frank McCourt (the Angela's Ashes one)? The Book of Kells?

It's all about Joyce with you, innit?

16.   Bob Timmermann
What about America's finest Irish-American author alive today: Jay McInerney!
2006-02-05 13:05:05
17.   Andrew Shimmin
15- I don't like McCourt, either. I probably shouldn't have read 'Tis, first, since it's the other one that people really like. But I wash my hands of him. Flannery O'Connor I've not given a chance. But, yes, it's mostly a Joyce thing. People say that Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man isn't all written in baby-talk. That, at some point, he stops with that. But not soon enough.

I don't consider C.S. Lewis an Irish writer, the same way I don't consider Saul Bellow a Canadian one.

Funny, I never would have even thought to consider the remotest possibility of having it cross my mind to list Flannery O'Connor as an Irish writer until it was mentioned in 15.

People who complicate handshakes

This is probably not what you meant, but when I left my last job, I shook my boss's hand. It was the first time I'd ever shaken his hand. Rather than pump up-and-down, like most people do, he moved our clenched hands from side-to-side. I'm more of an up-and-down guy myself, which meant that our handshake went around in a big counter-clockwise circle.

It's up-and-down, guy! You're on notice.

There was a day when I was commuting home from work and at the first station, I had to buy a ticket and I had enough change to pay the $1.25 fare, but it wouldn't take any of my dimes, so I had to pay with a bill and I only had a $20. So I got back 18 Sackies and three quarters.

Then at the next station, I had to buy another $1.25 ticket (the MTA here doesn't have transfers and I'm cheap enough that I will save 50 cents and buy two separate tickets). So I figure I will use the Sackies to pay the $1.25. But the machine won't take Sackies. So I had to use ANOTHER $20. I went home with 36 of them. I must have added 10 lbs to my weight.

I don't like peaches either; even in a pie, they're only tolerable. But what about avocados? And cherries?
2006-05-11 08:46:55
56.   dagwich
I can't believe the hate for peaches, of all things. And I gather that it is not the pit itself but the actual fruit that is the problem? I love peaches and each them raw,in pies, in ice cream, in lots of ways. Of course I live very near Peach Country.

Now the olive pit that broke my crown....I hate that pit. It cost me a lot of money.

And what is the problem with Frank McCourt (the writer)? I enjoyed both his books, but I got a little peeved when his book reading cost $5 if you didn't buy the book.

2006-05-11 18:13:54

I have two peach trees in my back yard that produce amazing peaches. My dogs love them too.
2006-05-12 00:51:50
58.   Andrew Shimmin
Well, that settles it, doesn't it? Peaches: fit for dogs.

56- McCourt has a new(ish) one called Teacher Man. I didn't read it, but I listened to the first couple hours. If I hadn't been on a plane (and, had the plane not been full) I wouldn't have been able to stifle the urge to shout, "Suck it up! Be a man!" As it was, I only just did stifle it.

2006-05-12 15:21:02
59.   Bob Timmermann
When you eat a peach, there is a possibility of one's teeth meeting the pit.

That cannot stand.

And the fuzz! Don't get me started on the fuzz!

2006-05-15 10:41:50
60.   dagwich
Teeth meeting the pit: that possibility exists for many foods, like the aforementioned olives. Why pick on peaches? Oh, the fuzz.

I mean, if you get a peach at dead-ripe, it is fantastic. Most of the ones in stores are so unripe and hard they could substitute for baseballs, and after a week of ripening, they are likely to be rotten. Try getting a ripe peach from a fruit stand. Rub it like a pitcher rubbing down a baseball to get the fuzz off. Eat it with mindfulness so to not bite down on the pit. Wipe that peach juice off your chin and enjoy.

Now fruits that I can really understand either loving or hating: persimmon and durian.

Teacher Man: I could see where that could get tedious. I think he said all he needed to on that with 'Tis. I really thought Angela's Ashes was an amazing book...

The Pro-Bowl is so dead to me it's not even on the dead to me list any more, instead I've added Robin Williams. I can't even remember why I ever thought he was funny. I think it was Mork and Mindy. Now that he's reduced to things like RV it's officially over between us. I remember why I found Steve Martin funny, and Shopgirl made me believe there's still hope, but after he not only made that terrible Parenthood rip off with Bonnie Hunt, but then made the sequel as well he's lucky he's only on notice.

Who knew this existed.
Dead to me:
*Self absorbed teachers who complain about their salaries in the middle of summer while enjoying a 10 week vacation to people who only get 2 weeks off a year and still make less then whining teachers.
*Cito Gaston for 87 reminding me why
*Clayton Kershaw for making me look like a chump at the futures game after I spent two days extolling his virtues to Giant fans.
* Rick Monday who has destroyed what used to be one of my favorite pastimes.

How about the University of Arizona.....not just the football fans. And Lute Olson. I've always respected him, but he's completely lost his mind. I actually feel a bit sorry for him.

Who's son in law is he, anyway? And who the hell is signing off on his expense reports? "Great piece on people who press the elevator call button more than once. And I agree, being in Hawaii at the time was integral to the story. Really tied it together, I thought."
