Hobbies -  Chewing tobacco, blowing games, making babies, drinking beers, kicking ass and taking names, waterballooning innocent victims

1) Who is your favorite musician?

A- Rush, Abba

 

2) What are your favorite board games?

A - Sorry

 

3) Who is the toughest pitcher ever faced?

A- all of them this year, except Scotty Lambchop- moo-moo-mcfarmer-snookie Murphy

 

4) Best piece of advice ever given to you?

A- From Charles Ingels from Little House on the Praire - "Wild Animals dont make good pets"

 

5) Most Memorable Game

A- pick any of the 3 walkoff losses i have

 

6) Favorite late night snack?

A- McRibs

 

7) If you were trapped in a foxhole, who would you want in there to help you get out?

A- Mike D because he is always willing to help others, he would never let anything happen to me.  He never thinks about himself.  Also he might find some rare old coins. 

 

8) If you were trapped on a desert island, what 3 things would you want with you (other than food and water)?

A - 3 McRib sandwiches

9) You seem to be a target of abuse from the peanut gallery, any comments for them?

I dont mind it.  I know who the ringleader is.  He has a big stomach, big moles all over his face he hides with his beard and an even bigger mouth.   

I'm not happy about blowing saves, but its better than blowing a guy (reference to Daly and Keto)

They're mostly a bunch of good guys, except "Fluff" Kearney and "Eyebrows" Finnerty.  I dont like losing to them. 

 

10) How old was Scruffy when he passed away?

11 - he was a good dog, he died in my arms and I'll never forget him.  I know he is having his way with Rex in heaven.

 

11) You are on pace to finish the year with 5 walk-off losses.  How do you manage to accomplish such a feat?

I do my best but its unfortunate.  If Reilly didn't put his arm he would have struck out and we might still be playing.
