Ride Along with Rickey
Wednesday, January 30, 2008
You may know Ricky Henderson as quite possibly the craziest base coach in baseball, who continually refers to himself in the 3rd person.
Well, a denizen of the fine city of New York, channels all of the hubris and habits of Mr. Henderson plus a fine helping of his own misanthropic jabs to whip up a fine daily batch of Riding With Rickey.
Go check out Rickey's blog. You've seen him quite often here in our comments section, and his blog is every bit worth the visit. He also accomplishes the nearly impossible by throwing up (in every sense of the phrase) a new post every day. That is, first and foremost, incredibly difficult and requires a ton a creativity. I say this in light of the fact that despite having 7 contributors to this blog, we don't always get a daily post up-and-running.
There you have it. It's a blog about baseball trivia, pop culture and politics. And it's damn funny to boot.

Aw shucks Smitty, you folks aren't so bad yourselves either... Many thanks buddy.
A Rickey Henderson rookie card was the very first major purchase I ever made with my own money. Seriously. Bought the sucker for something like 30 bucks in 1984, just before he left Oakland and sold it for 90 bucks in 1986 or so during the hight of his Yankee carreer. And now, I Ride With Rickey. What a joy.
Rickey also had a nice stew recipe on his blog a couple of weeks ago. BMac appreciates a good stew, and he thanks Rickey for sharing.
No problem BMac... Rickey's currently experimenting in the thrilling world of chili and will be sharing a recipe of his own very shortly. Rickey likes cooking up hearty man-fuel.
Hmmmm... Chili. I love me some Chili. Does Rickey's recipe have beer in it? I think some Brown Ale or Porter go down real well in some Chili.
And the stew looks good, I'll have to give that a shot!
And, now that the 'scheduled outage' is over, I can go post a beer review!
