Hey there. Damn, you lookin’ good this morning.
You know, I really don’t know why I feel this compulsive need to lead off all my writings with a hello, as if we’re actually talking or running into each other in the supermarket or something, rather than just jumping into the subject. I mean, it makes no sense not to just start the column with, “We begin our season roundup of the Cardinals’ minor league system today at the very lowest levels....”, blah blah blah, melancholy anecdote, roughly double the number of adverbs a normal, functionally literate person typically uses, call it a day.
