Something you may not know about me: I'm a huge baseball nerd. It's the only thing that comes close to my obsession with cars. I'm the kind of person who subscribes to MLB.TV to watch every game all season, fantasy baseball (think The League and you're very close to our sad obsession), traveling to different stadiums. The whole nine yards. I even created a Google spreadsheet that automatically updates on a daily basis and spits out a list of the most likely players to get a hit on any given day using sabermetrics and some of my own magic.

But that's not why I'm starting this thread. I captain a local beer league softball team which is very generously sponsored by this here magazine. We had new jerseys made for this season and I had a special one made to hang in the office as a thanks. Thought you guys might enjoy it.

I had softball shirts with : Swamp Thing on the front, A mortal combat dragon on the front and the name Lu Kang on the back, and one that said Rick Astley on the back.

Speaking of Bob Costas, swmbo just doesn't understand why I break into school girl giggling everytime he appears on the Olympics coverage.

In that case, could you maybe give Joe Buck a similar treatment?
