July 8, 200521 yr So I'm walking around outside like 150 before the rain delay and this camera guy comes up to me and asks me to say something about Miguel Cabrera. I don't know if he wanted me to speak Spanish but I did anyways so I spoke in broken Spanish about how Cabrera is the "orgullo de me gente" even though "no soy venezelano" but the Venezuelans "son un gente bonita". Then I told him how Alex Gonzalez was "un jardinero fantastico" with a glove "de oro" and that Johan Santana was "el lancador mejor de beisbol" and that I liked Bobby Abreu and that Omar Vizquel was "muy bien pero muy viejo". Supposedly the Venezuelan ladies were laughing histerically at my poor Spanish skills but good enthusiasm and they told me I'd be on tv but only in V-Land. If anybody (Capeyboy!) knows about any Marlins games that are going to be on tv down there I guess they could possibly use me as a promo. Anyways after years of studying Spanish and occasionally listening to Felo I finally got to use all my favorite baseball vocabulary words.
