 You are obviously wasting your talents and experience on this site.  Why don't you contact MLB and impress them as much as you have us.  I'm sure they'll offer you a job.  I hear Joe Torre's job, or a piece of it, might become available.
You really need to upgrade the level of people you associate with...we don't deserve you.  Honest.  We really don't.
