Goose Gets The Call

Posted by Mark McCray |

Goose Gossage takes a long, hot shower after snow-blowing the driveway on this Tuesday morning. He brings in his old husky's big water bowl because it's still freezing outside, where five inches of fresh-fallen flakes blanket his beautiful view of the Rocky Mountains.

Goose has already been told the long-awaited phone call -- that is, if he is to get one informing him of his election to the Hall of Fame -- will be delayed up to 45 minutes.

He's waited all these years, what's a little more?

Congratulations Goose!

The Perfect Mudhen

Apparently, the Toledo Mudhen's have expressed interest in signing the former Yankee.

You know, I think this is a perfect fit for Alex. Plus, I live 20 minutes from Toledo and it would be great to watch him play baseball in the minor leagues. People talk about the money Alex Rodriguez generates for his teams and the cities he plays in, and God knows Toledo could use a little boost to the economy. I guess there are incentives included in the contract offer for hitting 75 home runs and leading the 'Hens to ten straight governor cups. That may be possible in Toledo...
