The Dept. of Oversensitivity

Man, they just keep giving 'em to us:
"We spent the extra money, we got a bigger caliper tree," [Cousin Mark] Lerner said. "It'll be much more spectacular."

Uhoh. That's coming out of someone's budget! I hope Hagerstown kept some extra balls from last season.

  • i wonder if they're getting a refund for the extra 6 trees? actually, they'll probably be selling them to casey foundation or ntl park service at a premium! "where do you think you're gonna get a tree like THIS?"

  • Nice job putting the Nats logo on the bottom of that banner. Good grief.

  • What's a caliper tree? Is that used during surgery? Or in measuring feet width?

  • Sounds to me like someone here is just a wee bit jealous over the size of someone else's shaft.

    Say, do you think they'd mind if I dump my leftover eggplant parm down at the base of one of these trees for compost, or should I take it over to the Red Porch and scrape it into the trash there? It was all so much easier last year at RFK when I could just feed my leftovers to the rats! (Of course I'll be taking the container home with me to clean and re-use. Like the Lerners, I'm cheap that way.)
