Do you ever get the feeling that A-Rod owns himself in fantasy
basbeball?
His homerun last night in the ninth reminded me of a Saturday in
early February 1978. Sammy White's Bowling Lanes was closed due to the
fact that their roof caved in from too much snow, but somehow, "Candlepins
for Cash" was still on the air. (I guess the Wal-Lex had better
builders.) Anyway, some shlub named Dave DiStefano was down 32 pins
to Dennis McHugh going into the last frame. He was sure to
lose when the RED PIN showed up! If DiStefano got a strike on the
"Red Pin Frame" he would win a shit load of money. (A couple of
sawbucks, I think. I was 5 years old, $20 was a lot of money!)
The show's host Bob Gamere did his best Michael Kay impression trying to rev up
the crowd as DiStefano tossed his meaningless blue-swirl ball for a money
making strike. In the end DiStefano lost the game, though. I think
he's at 
The End.

Anyway the Sox won last night and many of you (3) won prizes. They'll
be more fun tonight.
Thanks to Stephanie for our mention in her great NY Post article and
