Actually, I may not be batting

So I checked the directions to see how far this here ballpark was from my house.  According to Telenav, it’s 42 miles from my couch.  By a rough estimation, that’s about $8 bucks each way.

When I was in college — which wasn’t very long ago — $15 bucks was my absolute cutoff for paying a cover charge at a club.  And clubs had smokin’ hot sexy young tenders!  Ain’t gonna be nothin’ tender at the Mudcats game, I feel confident saying.

But I’ll go.  Mark my words, though — it’s a matter of time before somebody gets smoked for trying to snake gas out of another man’s tank.  Let’s just hope I ain’t the one that gets caught.

See Bomani Embarrass Himself Today

As most of you know, I like to talk smack. I’m Mack’s son and Mumba’s brother. This is what I do.

So, you’d think that, given that the on-air personalities at 850 The Buzz are participating in a batting contest today before the Carolina Mudcats game at Five County Stadium, I’d be on here talking crazy. I will not, though.

Why? Because I find the pitchers at the driving range throw a mean curveball, which leads me to believe a batting practice pitcher will look like Sandy Koufax pitching to me. I don’t even know the last time I swing a pitch at a baseball.

Please don’t laugh at me. Well, at least not any more than you ordinarily do.
