Did you read Bernie Miklasz's column about Dave Duncans son and his tenure with the cardinals? He was lamenting how tough it was for him.....he did get a million dollar signing bonus....he wasn't worth a million for sure....but his dad was the pitching coach.....it was all I could do to finish it....he said he is still scarred by the experience....I am sure that million dollars was a pretty good bandaid.....
Then the Cardinals drafted 6 or 7 kids who fathers work for the cardinals including Matheny's son.......talk about nepotism...but then I guess we will be reading in a few years how they were scarred by the experience.....as well.....the Cardinals can do whatever they want...but to read Bernies column....Duncans kid was like a war orphan...he was so emotionally traumatized by it.....give me a break.......be thankful that he had that opportunity......lots of others didn't...and probably could have been drafted too......but they didn't have a parental connection.....I honestly thought those kind of things stopped in little league....obviously not.....
Well...another day of wonderment is upon us.....
