Miles Davis had a song about him on "Kind of Blue". Or at least, that what I always think of.

Has anyone had him say "Captain Marvel!", yet? And if so, what happened?

You just never know what you'll encounter on Althouseblog.

Was the Braves' ban due to safety/risk management concerns about a player under contract or an image/dignity thing?

AMDG said...

The Braves should have ponied up to keep him. He was the heart and soul of the team and he wanted to stay.

Ambiguity?

But Freddie is a Southern California gu y--so the Dodgers were like coming home to Momma. Being a Padres fan I wish he'd stayed in Atlanta rather than make life miserable for the rest of the National League West.

Yep- Freddie loved Atlanta and Atlanta fans loved Freddie. Losing him was tough. He's had a great run- both with Atlanta and especially with LA, where he got to shine in multiple World Series. I'm sure the Braves told him 'no worm' because of image. They're a pretty strait-laced bunch.

The Red Sox tried to ban Wade Boggs doing the gator, and look how that worked out.

Cause he's so high
High above me, he's so lovely
He's so high, like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or Aphrodite
Da-da-da-da-da
He's so high, high above me
