So Mike - I KNOW you are out there still. It's been awhile so I figured I would make your ears burn again. Instead of calling you I am sending out a TEX message (bad joke, I know) and hoping to wake you up from that nap you've been taking. All things you said in BIRD: STILL MY GUY. Since we live so far apart now I figured I'd search for ya on the blogosphere.
Inside the Pinstripes writes:
Bird appeared in 59 games, hitting .218/.325/.354 with six home runs and 22 RBI."
Are you okay? Asking from a genuine place here because now both of our guys are gone. Yours just happened to be dumped by the Yankees twice now.
So now maybe no one will remember either of us. Actually, maybe they will because we were pretty entertaining back in the day when we stood by our men. Neither of our guys panned out and maybe Bird flies away and joins another team somewhere. I even wish him well because I never wanted to see him fail but I'm also ready for the Yankees to move on from Bird. No need for another reunion.
But seriously, I saw the headline today and had a good laugh. So this is me checking in and dropping a line to say hello. Lots of history with both of these players. Lots of good times at good old BYB. Who knows, maybe we will find a new Bird and Teixeira to banter about.

Good times. Don't be a stranger, Mike!
