    You're doing it wrong. It's Run Invention.

    Where's Jose Tartabul? If I was Farncona I'd go all Booby Knight on Cameron's ass.

    Ahahahahahahaha! Cameron is a GG?

    The picture of "Shields" lends new meaning to the term "Trap Game".

    "Springfield Man attacks Yankee Mob. Details at eleven".

    There is a big cultural difference between Japan and the U.S.. But I'm not willing to excuse his behaviour and performance because of it. He willingly took big money to come here and I have to assume he had full knowledge of what the expectation were for his performance. He did ok to pretty good through 2008. Then showed up out of shape and "injured' in 2009. He either deceived or lied to the Sox and then publicly cast a bad light on his employers while collecting millions of dollars. I'm not sure what the word "loyalty" has to do with any discussion of his worth. If he had been an American employee of an American company, under most circumstances, he would have been fired. He has a no-cut, no trade contract, personal mesouse (sp), translator, limousine, and flights back to Japan. He's won (useless stat!) just over 30 games in 3+ years. Wonderful. I'm not calling him a complete bust, but he can not be viewed as a good investment. $60. mil. for three years of this? Posting Fee included. Next.

    I started wondering about Cano after seeing posts on the "Line-up" thread. As I implied, I don't see enough of him to know why he is so highly thought of. My take is that you see him somewhat as I see Ellsbury. Tremendous talent that has not been fulfilled - yet. It will be fun watching them develop.

    I was asking about Cano. And I now feel guilty given the effort that you put into your post. I was looking for a few sentences. But I'm thankful for your effort and insight. As a Sox fan living in Boston, I don't have the same perspective and was wondering why there is talk of him being so good while being an unfulfilled talent. Again, thanks.

    What was and what now is expected of him? I'd really like to know. Thanks.

    Real pudding is real. And good. I made hundreds of gallons of it many years ago. So many pies. So little time.

    Hmmm... This must be a Maine thing. But it sound like a good idea!
