Few tears here.
I don't know if I told this story before and I really hope I don't sound arrogant or whatever. And if I do.. oh well. But this year when the Giants were playing the Sox I went out for a few drinks with the guys I know. We were sitting outside at Melvin B's. I was in conversation with Ray and Barry walks up. I had a smile on my face like a 2 year old. To be near him, you can't help but be in awe. I met him 2 years ago on the road and while I saw him 3 nights in a row and he knew my name then I never imagined he'd remember me. He walked up, made the rounds saying hi to several of the guys and when he got to our table he said hi to me, by name, and gave me a half hug. It was unreal. The guy is the nicest guy and has the biggest heart when a microphone or tv camera isn't shoved in his face. It's a shame people say such bad things about him.
