Oh, and...

I was, a few weeks back, wondering what happened to Mr. Joey Meyer, the brobdingnagian Denver Zephyr who once whacked a ball to Brighton Boulevard whilst standing in downtown Salida. And you, loyal members of the HoGNation, were wondering right along with me.

Well, wonder no more. Today's Rocky had a story on the Brewers' once and not-future home run king, alive and well and maintaining lawns in Hawaii.

He sounds happy enough, but his tale's kind of a downer: potential, bit of promise, follow-through, cusp of success, injury. Not much of a surprise in the sports world, I suppose.

But still, I wonder: what happened to that painted seat?
