Debating the Irascible McCain (and Earl Weaver) ...

I was on MSNBC today, arguing that McCain needs to take the gloves off...

By the way, you'll notice that during the second question Schuster asked me, he referenced George Will's column today -- which mentioned former Baltimore Orioles manager Earl Weaver.

Tonight, I ran into George Will at the Americans For Prosperity event. I asked Will two trivia questions: He correctly answered that Tippy Martinez was the only pitcher to ever pick-off three runners in one inning (during the 1983 ~~post~~-season). Then, I asked him who about the four 20-game winners the O's had during one season. Will correctly guessed Palmer, McNally, and Cuellar, but wrongly guessed Milt Pappas (it was Pat Dobson). WIll also guessed it was 1970, but it was actually '71. Not bad, though...
