On this Day in History...

Apparently, the New York Times doesn't find the birth of a Marlins fan favorite all that newsworthy. They have opted instead to tout the birthday of some obscure baseball player by the name of Pujols (I don't get it either).

Fortunately for you though, the editors of Hook, Line Drive & Sinker can think of no event in history that could begin to compare to the magnitude of celebration that the anniversary of the birth of Alfredo Amezaga inspires. And so it is with great reverence and solemnity that we declare today Alfredo Amezaga Day, heretofore to be observed as an official HLD&S holiday.

I personally think this is a splendid follow-up to We're Glad He Broke Posada's Nose Day, which--as longtime readers of this blog are aware--we celebrate on January 4th. Yes, you may leave work now and head for the nearest pub.

Happy 30th birthday to the Amazing One!

It's true when they say that some of us have entirely too much time on our hands.

I took a day off work to honour this day (even though I have no idea what any of this entry means).

Who is Pujols?? :>)


Great entry as usual, Kelly.
