Remy and Orsillo: Where's the Love of the Game?
Last night (or this morning, for folks like me who use their DVR), word came in during the Sox v A's game that Ken Griffey Jr. had retired. And the only response from Orsillo was that the Mariners had been a disappointment this season.
What? Excuse me? One of the greatest players in the history of the game leaves it and you have no comment (Remy) or a useless throwaway line about the M's (Orsillo)? What?
Junior is one of the greatest players to ever play our national pasttime, and was almost certainly, and thankfully, drug free. He retires with 630 home runs and a million memories for fans of all ages, especially for those of us old enough to remember him breaking in at 19 with Seattle and setting the league on its collective ear with his jaw dropping athleticism and joy for the game.
------------
Just another example of why Remy and Orsillo have, apparently, no passion for the game, no love of its history and day to day dramas, and are a total snooze. Really, no one cares about Remy's desire to get back to his hotel room as quickly as possible following the last out. And Orsillo? The next interesting thing said by that dude will be the first.
Wow.
