Buck

Will got back late Thursday morning. He tells me he wants to go to see Strasburg…we’ll see. We had said he could do something like take several friends to a Braves game for his birthday, so maybe it will be that one. I’m sure the Braves are hating that it’s Buck Belue Buck Night.

Buck seems to “shouting” when he is alone. It’s to the point where I can tune in and figure out that Kincaid is off, just because Buck has his voice raised. He should take more calls instead. I still say that Buck is pretty humble for an ex-UGA QB. Seems like Zeier knows more how to pull strings and orchestrate backroom political deals…hence he landed the coveted UGA radio colorman job over Buck.

Will said he broke a wood bat, hitting one off the end. The bat shattered, with part of it going over the pitcher’s head. Ball went through the middle for a base hit. It was a team bat, as opposed to the one he had bought…”I don’t like that one.” Said he made a nice backhanded play at third base, but continued to show his inexperience in the outfield, whatever that means. Starting Saturday, they play four doubleheaders in five days.

I really liked the National Archives, which we saw before National Treasure came out. Doesn’t take too long. Did you see Night at the Museum 2, filmed at the Air & Space wing of the Smithsonian? (actually, it was a studio set/computer generated)

Southside Steve is always fun to listen to, though I mainly turn over to 100.5 when other stations are running commercials. Last night Katie Temple had some decent postgame comments, though most of them had to just be conjecture on her part.
