Odds and Ends: Don't Call It A Comeback

I've been here for years.  Rockin' my peers and putting suckas in fear.

And now that we've gotten that out of the way...

Adrian Gonzalez is a Dirty, Stinkin' Dodger!

I feel so...so...dirty.  I need to take a shower now.

Adrian Gonzalez.  I'm debating whether I should name him the Egg McMuffin of former Padres first basemen.

I, For One, Welcome Our New Insect Overlords--Uh, I Mean--New Owners

Finally.  John Moores' and Jeff Moorad's reign of terror is over.

Now, can Ron Fowler, the O'Malley's, the Seidler's, and Phil Mickelson turn this ship around?  Or is it just a coincidence that the Padres are on pace to finish up the season at 82-80 since the new ownership was announced?  Probably.

Social Media Night

Thanks to Corey Brock, the Padres beat writer for mlb.com, I'm going to Monday's Social Media Night in a Western Metal Suite.

A hearty congrats to @ghostofrak. He's the winner of two tickets to #PadresSocial on 8/27. #Padres

Make sure you follow me on Twitter, as I'm sure I'll be tweeting inappropriate things. Especially if Leila Rahimi shows up.  She DID profess her true feelings for me on Friday night, after all.  Well, with a little editing on my part...

Fixed it for you. ;-) RT @leilarahimi: @ghostofrak I love you
