Ass of the Day
There are a number of viable candidates for today's ass of the day...or even ass of the past two days. Matt Wise, Aaron Heilman, Willie's fat trap, Yunel Escobar's Knee, Alou's Calf...etc. You get the point. I'm done honoring Heilman with ass of the day. He gets the lifetime ass-chievement award. It's pathetic. The fact that Alou strained his calf muscle by merely breathing and is not optimistic about should be our first clue that 2008 is turning into a very cruel joke.
But you know what. Last night I was impressed with D-Wright stepping up as the man of the team by saying this is unacceptable. Instead of finger pointing and throwing people under the bus, he said everyone is responsible and it's about taking accountability. In fact the only person he called out was himself.
So in honor of our unofficial captain...I'm taking accountability for my actions. You should too. Ass of the Day is on each of us. Yes, you bud. And you. And me. The past two days I have given up almost 10 hours I won't get back watching this team fumble through their day. For that, I'm an ass and so are you.
