Did He Really Say That?…

“They’re an older group. They’ve been in a hole before. Not many times, but whether it’s during the course of the season or during the course of games, they’ve been able to navigate their way out of these situations.” ~ Tim Corbin

Now, how’d that work out again Timmy?

Happy Bobby Bonilla Day July 1

This must be the smartest player ever...


In 2000, the Mets agreed to buy out the remaining $5.9 million on Bonilla's contract.

However, instead of paying Bonilla the $5.9 million at the time, the Mets agreed to make annual payments of nearly $1.2 million for 25 years starting July 1, 2011, including a negotiated 8% interest.

At the time, Mets ownership was invested in a Bernie Madoff account that promised double-digit returns, and the Mets were poised to make a significant profit if the Madoff account delivered -- but that did not work out. LaughingLaughingLaughingjumpingsmile

OT: Tomato Pie

Just did a deep dive into tomato pie...maybe a bit too deep for the topic. An interesting yet unclear history.

Did you know that if you bring a tomato pie to a party those guests from the northeast might have an entirely different dish (or two) in mind? Or that the first "tomato pies" were actually green and sweet and not at all the same thing we Southerns enjoy today?

Looks like the southern tomato pie we think of is likely of a much later origin, possibly even first dreamed up by mayo manufacturers.

In the article, I included Lone Star BBQ's recipe. It has been out there for some time, so a Google search quickly reveals it and some of you may have already tried it.

I confirmed the recipe with former owner Chris Williams, as I had a couple of questions. His "looks solid" reply this morning gave me the go-ahead to press publish.

If you have an hour or so you can read the article, or you can just jump down to the recipe at the bottom. Enjoy.

Well, I'm mad as heck. I have Spectrum Cable TV, Internet and Phone Service. There is a Spectrum news channel

that has weather as well as the news for NC. The Spectrum channel just displayed a graphic that has some interesting facts about NC. It said the state of NC is referred to as Carolina and in parenthesis ( sorry, South Carolina). Now that is untrue. In all of my travels I've never hear of the state of North Carolina referred to as Carolina.
