I'm not sure I know any other batters who are as fidgety as him, but one fidgety pitcher to check out is Steve Trachsel. Not sure who he's playing for now...though I'm sure it's somebody in the NL. As far as Pudge goes, I get annoyed by those crosses too but hey, he's such a sparkplug for those young guys on the team. Or maybe I'm biased b/c I've suffered WAY too long thru all of the Tigers' losing seasons. :)<BR/><BR/>Another name story: My roomate's last name is Roney, and they have a dog named Pepper...they didn't figure it out til like 2 months after they named him.<BR/><BR/>Running idols, well I'm still a young gun so I don't have a big list, but I really like what Meb Keflizighi (sp?) is doing. Marla Runyan is a good choice too because she's legally blind.Justinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06804241455210777739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11188695.post-1149597025475363602006-06-06T07:30:00.000-05:002006-06-06T07:30:00.000-05:00Duncan, can't say I've seen Nomar much - especiall...Duncan, can't say I've seen Nomar much - especially now that he's in the Nat'l league. Maybe with inter-league play starting I'll be able to see him.<BR/><BR/>Yes, I remember Sergio's waggle. That was annoying. Could you imagine playing with him?Chadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08412073727859282887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11188695.post-1149530167667629032006-06-05T12:56:00.000-05:002006-06-05T12:56:00.000-05:00You must not be a Nomar fan I take it.

I'll have to break out google to find out who some of those people are.<BR/><BR/>Sara, I like Summer Sanders too - but probably for other reasons. I like to watch Sports Lists just to see her.<BR/><BR/>David, that's awesome. I could see talking about a name like that, but not actually going through with it. Like my friends - the Lees who joked about naming their boy Brock - as in Brock Lee; Broccoli. They went with Nicholas instead.<BR/><BR/>Yvonne, naming can be hard. My wife works at a school so a lot of the names I picked reminded her of certain kids - and not the good ones. That made things a little difficult. <BR/><BR/>Were you a Joan Benoit fan?

Talk about not letting the Arficans indimidate you to the point where you think you can't compete.
