Random rants from a currently displaced Kentuckian

Breathe easy, Masses

I'm back to blogging. All it takes is Randolph Morris declaring for the NBA draft after averaging a lotto-like 8.8 points and 4.2 rebounds per game in 2004-2005 and Rich Aurilia starting nightly in the Reds' IF over Ryan Freel. Freel can take a page from Dustin Diamond when it comes to being unfairly typecast. Much like "Screech", Freel's unable to shake a label - for Freel, it's "Utility Man", whereas for DD, it's clearly "Boy Toy". Freel's reputation as a Jack of All Trades has blinded either Reds' GM Dan O'Brien or Manager Dave Miley, whoever it is that is truly drawing up the Reds' daily lineup. Freel's numbers are much more AC Slater than Screech.

Stunning development reported tonight. Perennial underachiever and crybaby Shav "Don't Call me Shavlik" Randolph is threatening to withdraw his name from the NBA Draft. Reportedly, Mike Kryzewski has offered a cameo spot in his next AmEx commercial to the first agent who will sign Shav to the dotted line, thus freeing up Shav's scholarship for a more deserving player, like maybe this guy.
