'Tis a silly reference to the recent Paul O'Neill-LaTroy Hawkins number flap. (Papers in Mexico haven't been keeping up with this? For shame.)
LaTroy stared the year wearing No. 21, got mercilessly booed by the folks who wanted Paulie's number retired, and switched to No. 22. See, the name of the movie is "21," and ... well, you get it by now.

I'm not sure, but I know Ian Kennedy and his agent are targeting Baskin Robins.
ReplyDeleteHey Bern,
ReplyDeleteI know I am completely out of it.
Also, I spend a lot of time with Edwar and that fat pitcher we got for Jared in South Mexico, drinking worms.
But what is this Paul Oneil post all about? Is he in the band? The movie?
Inquiring minds want to be u to date.

Thanks, Bern
ReplyDeleteSo , maybe if we could get Cano #21, he would start hitting better.
Gotta be 21 to drink beer here. That's why they booed. They wanted beer.
