I'll take credit for Jim Palmer and Boz, one hit and one miss apparently .... I laughed at my own joke when typing the Jim Palmer one, and my wife thought I was insane.

you nailed Palmer. Funny thing is, despite his arrogance, I actually like the guy. He and Flanny were the only things that made years of unwatchable baseball watchable.

yeah, we might've sucked on the field but at least our tv analysts were smarter and wittier than the other guys AND they were Cy Young winners.

But the highlight came when Jim Palmer repeatedly brought up her scores from the U.S. Open qualifier. "So I saw the highlights, and you didn't fare so well in the later rounds. You shot 143 for the tournament and were 5 shots away from the cut." Now this wouldn't really bother me, but he mentioned it about 4 times! Seriously, I don't think Wie is worth all the media attention and I think she should be concentrating on winning maybe ONE tournament against her peers, but give the kid a break.
But the ultimate comment came when Jim Hunter sort of came to Wie's aid. Hunter asks, "So Michelle had a 68 in the 1st round I bet you never shot that low" and to the shock of the world Palmer throws out this Gem......
"Well once with Jack Nicklaus I shot a 66."

Maybe if Jake Arrieta could have Adam Jones playing in the stands to rob HR’s, his ERA wouldn’t be so high.
