She turned out okay, didn't she?

Imagine, if you will, that you're a young girl. Your mother is Christie Brinkley, and your father is Billy Joel. And you look like Billy Joel. That's what this reminds me of.

Joe Torre's Daughter Catches Falling Yogurt Shop Roof Baby How many threads have we had with that title? I've lost count!

Maybe it's time for him to consider adult diapers.

Torres sure is limber, isn't he?

Actually, I'd rather not see any Spider-Man reboot at all until at least 20 years have passed. Including the origin in the reboot is fine, as long as these reboots are well spaced. But the 2002 Spidey movie is still pretty fresh, and I agree, they could have made the recent movie without the spider bite, and Uncle Ben getting killed, etc.

Has anyone been tracking who has been signed and who hasn't?

I thought it was okay. A little too long, but not nearly as much so as Superman Returns was. Michael Shannon made a good Zod (much better than that creepy guy they had on Smallville). I liked that they held off on introducing Lex Luthor, and that there was no mention of kryptonite. Kryptonite is as deadly to Superman stories (it so easily gets used as a crutch) as it is to Superman himself. (I saw it the morning after I finally watched Amazing Spider-Man, so I'm doing a bit of conflating. I find myself wanting to comment about how I couldn't see Sally Field as Aunt May.) I understand the need to revise the classic costume a bit, but I would have liked the colors to be a bit closer to primary than they were. Make the cape a little redder, brighten the yellow in the shield on the chest. I'm okay with the elimination of the red bathing suit.

When it's time to drop the rotation from six men to five, it seems like Marcum will be the obvious choice. I just wish he was pitching well enough to be tradeable, but he's not really showcasing himself very well.

I guess it's good that he's able to handle a town the size of Savannah, Georgia.

Wow!
