Misnomar: To think, I could have signed a 4 year $60 million contract to play in a city that not only recently won the World Series, but adored me. |
|
Misnomar: Now here I am signing single year deals for $6 million playing a position I don't even like. I used to love baseball. What happened to me? What turned me into such a bitter old man? |
 |
WordUpThome: ITS NOT SO BAD |
|
Misnomar: What's that? |
|
WordUpThome: PLAYING FIRST BASE. SURE YOU MIGHT BE USED TO SHORTS STOP BUT THIS COULD BE GOOD FOR YOU. FIRST BASE IS #1 FIRST. |
|
Misnomar: But I miss Boston... |
|
WordUpThome: THERE THERE MY TEARY EYED FRIEND. YOU KNOW I THINK I LOVED PHILLY ABOUT AS MUCH AS A MAN WHO DOESN'T LIKE CHEESE STEAK SANDWICHES CAN. BUT YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT. BUT IF YOU TRY SOMETIMES YOU GET WHAT YOU NEED. |
|
Misnomar: Ha, a Stones fan, huh? |
|
WordUpThome: I'M MORE OF A MOSS KIND OF GUY. |
|
Misnomar: Well, I guess you're right. Moping around while I was unhappy in Boston only made things worse, so I guess it wouldn't do much good here. |
|
WordUpThome: IF YOU EVER NEED HELP CATCHING THE OLD BASE BALL YOU JUST LET ME KNOW. FIRST BASE IS KIND OF MY THING. |
|
Misnomar: You're a good guy, Jim. Thanks. |
|
WordUpThome: HOW ABOUT WE GO GRAB AN ICE CREAM CONE FROM DAIRY QUEEN? YOU CAN TRY ON MY MITT. |
|
Misnomar: We're two thousand miles apart, Jim. This is just a chat room. I've got a lot of unpacking to do, so I'll talk to you later. |
