Special Edition: Barry Zito on Baseball-Reference.com

You know how you go to the supermarket checkout line and they have all those racks of candy, gum, magazines, gift cards, mini-astrology books, etc. and you buy some Tic Tacs or a cold soda just 'cause it's there?

Or you're strolling along, then you step into a store, and you see something that you never knew existed before but now you must have it, and so you pull out your wallet?

It's even worse when you're surfing Amazon.com or iMusicStore, because all your credit card information is already in there and all you have to do is >>click!<< Well, I made my own impulse purchase. I sponsored the Barry Zito player page on Baseball-Reference.com.

I'm not quite sure what came over me. I was doublechecking some facts on Cy Young Award winners when I came upon Zito's page and saw that it was available for sponsorship.

Let me just say, at this point where I am right now, I can't really afford to sponsor a Barry Zito page. Come on, BARRY ZITO? Me?!

So please visit the page and try to get some enjoyment out of it if you can. I'll just sit here and wait for UPS to deliver my new purchases from Victoria's Secret.

Congratulations on sponsoring the page! At least it will give you some traffic for the blog. Very cool!

your mom and I had a conversation in tagalog about Barry. He is afraid of success. What--is he more interested in bad haircuts and playing guitar?

TB: My Giants fan niece is spending part of the summer with her cousins. If she knew how tight the race is in the AL West, she might return as a Rangers fan.

BD: My mom has observed that when Barry Zito's hair is long, he struggles on the mound. When his hair is short (as it is these days), he gets wins.

My god Wella, it's officially an addiction. Sponsoring a stats page? You're hysterical. I bow to your superior FANaticism.
