Ron Washington Hearts Booger Sugar

It's always funny when an immature joke you throw around with your buddies turns out to be the God's honest truth. Every time the Red Sox and Rangers have played during Ron Washington's three years as Texas' manager, we always get a few good jokes in about the size of his nostrils and the likelihood that he was contemplating snorting the entire 3rd Base line on each trip to talk to one of his pitchers. Well, it turns out that I was right. Washington owned up to going all Tony Montana on us today. If you take a look at the picture at the top of this post, you have to wonder if something is up. The manager of a mediocre baseball team can not look this happy. There are only three possibilities for Washington's sunny demeanor: 1. He had just paid for the pleasure of a nice young cocktail waitress the previous night. 2. He overheard Andruw Jones talking about adding a few pounds to get some pop back in his swing. 3. He received a visit from a clubhouse guy named Saul who has connections in Dallas. I would not be surprised to hear that all three had happened but knowing that I was right about Washington's coke nose is putting a gigantic smile on my face.
