My father butchered names, too. He used to call Oprah Opie Wimpy, and, because my mom liked Jim Croce, he asked me to pick her up an album by "that nice Jimmy Crow". The best part was that he would get very angry if you didn't have a clue who he meant!!

Yes, I heard that Nomar owns TWO homes in L.A., so everyone was pretty sure he would take the deal with the Dodgers. Gina, if you feel like Houston hasn't been pursuing anyone, my Yankees haven't gotten ANYONE!! It's been horrible!! With the exception of rumors about Damon and Clemens, there hasn't been any talk about them making any trades of substance. And it's not like their bullpen didn't need some shoring up!!
