Cameron's Curse
Edgy DC Aug 20 2010 09:57 AM |
Not really, but I was thinking about the glourious baseball number that is 44, and it seems that every Met since Cameron who has donned those digits has seen his career take a turn toward oblivion.

Jay Payton wore it well for a few years prior to Cameron.

And now Cameron himself is out *AGAIN* with season-ending abdominal surgery.

The Curse isn't Cameron. It's Lastings. He was anointed as a savior, took the big important uniform number, high-fived the ballpark, and collapsed.

Hank Aaron, Willie McCovey, Reggie Jackson.

Too late. In my mind, 44 is Bob Myrick...then Jason Isringhausen. Then Payton, then Milledge. Then maybe Hank Aaron.

And what about 42? Is 42 Ron Hodges and Butch Huskey and Mo Vaughn? And then, maybe, Jackie Robinson?

Is it wrong to say yes? Because to me, yes.

That's good, because this is only my 43rd. Error of enthusiasm - can't get enough of my marriage. Later
