I am still recovering from the great announcement, so the blog will be a little lean over the next few days. Penn State news will have to wait again. There was not much yesterday either. I have a few items from yesterday to add that do not even have anything to do with baseball.<\/p>\n

Fans Must Weigh Pros, Cons of Which Team to Support<\/strong>
\n
One word: Youppi. It looks like he is coming here.<\/p>\n
MLB Deal Could Mean Huge Profit For Angelos<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i>
\n
No surprise here. Baltimore may get stronger for having competition down I-95. Of course, that means they will only go out and get more washed-up sluggers.<\/p>\n
Tony Kornheiser<\/b> – Root for the Home Team, But Don’t Boot The Orioles<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i>
\n
Listen up! I am disappointed in Tony Kornheiser for suggesting that people still follow the Orioles. I say boot ’em, send to the curb. Go to maybe a game a year.<\/p>\n
Traffic May Be OK<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i>
\n
A lot of this will depend on when the games will start, 7:05 or 7:35. It will not be a big deal at RFK, but it will be in SE. They need more than a 1,000 parking spaces too, even if folks are encouraged to Metro.<\/p>\n
D.C. officials lead off with stadium legislation<\/b><\/a> – The Wash. Times<\/i>
\n
This will be grueling. I do not know if I will have the stomach to cover it.

    MAYBE WE SHOULD CALL IT JACKIE DANIELS<\/h2>\n

    Drinkers object to Jack Daniel’s watering whiskey down<\/b><\/a> – AP via USA Today<\/i>
    \n
    Apparently, this is not the first time this has happened to Jack. It was once 90 proof. Thankfully, Jim Beam, will not be making the same mistake. I still have about 100 mL of 86 proof JD left, but the bottle after that one is 80 proof. My condolences to CLY, FCY, and Sam.<\/p>\n

    AS SEEN IN THE CONCORDE: AIRPORT ’79<\/i><\/h2>\n

    Dulles Among Busiest Airports<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i>
    \n
    Not much more than 20 years ago, the parking lot at Dulles was empty and parking was a quarter. My father used to take my brother and I out there on Sunday morning’s in his Triumph TR 250<\/b> (the two of us strapped in the front seat together) and watch the planes with a dozen from Mr. Donut and some hot chocolate. Good times.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
