Make it a Ghostrunner Xmas Once Again


As always, the red hatted & white bearded Man for All Seasons wishes you and yours a safe and work-free holiday. Because that's what Christmas is all about: not going to work.

Let us rub our grubby mitts together and wish for goodies we didn't earn and don't deserve:
  • Ichiro in a Blue Jays uniform.
  • The ongoing success of the San Francisco Giants.
  • Dustin Pedroia coming down with polio
  • Carlos Delgado taking a baby-shaking, hand-kissing role in the Jays FO
  • An adamantium infusion which keeps Scott Rolen playing forever
  • Roy Halladay winning 30 games
  • Mariano Rivera continuing about his business
  • A walkoff walk a week for life.
Have a good weekend, y'all!

  1. I am down for any and all of these things.. especially Scott Rolen playing forever.

    Merry Christmas (in Hollis)!

  2. I'll take any of these wrapped nicely under the tree:

    - AJ Burnett never posting an ERA under 6.00 again
    - Edwin Encarnacion hitting 54 home runs after slight adjustment to his batting stance
    - Derek Jeter becoming the Yankee right fielder
    - Carl Crawford stops stealing bases in order to avoid injury
    - Albert Pujols identifying that he grew up a Jays fan following Tony Fernandez and George Bell and that he'd be willing to take a discount to sign with the team after the 2011 season.

  3. Merry ho ho ho to all y'all. Loving my time in Australia, but missing the ongoing repartee and jibber jabber with all the Jays fans back home.

    And someone get me a Campari on the rocks.

  4. Happiest of holidays to you and yours, Drew. Maybe Santa Anthopoulos will grant you one of these wishes for Christmas. Enjoy the egg nog!

  5. I like Peter's wishes but I'm going to modify them slightly.

    - AJ Burnett never posting an ERA under 6.00 again while pitching 500 innings per year
    - Edwin Encarnacion hitting 54 home runs after slight adjustment to his batting stance, becoming Scott Rolen defensively after slight adjustment to his fielding stance
    - Derek Jeter becoming the Yankee right fielder (switching places with Nick Swisher)
    - Carl Crawford starts stealing cars in order to avoid not going to jail (it doesn't work)
    - Albert Pujols identifying that he grew up a Jays fan following Tony Fernandez and George Bell and that he'd be willing to take a discount to sign with the team after the 2001 season, having built a time machine

    Merry Christmas all!
