This has to be the dumbest thing to lie about.
I admit it...I wasn't drafted by the A's either.
After researching the situation,I have come to the conclusion that I have never won the lottery.
He's planning to run for pres, getting the skeletons cleared up early.
>>It's possible that someone might have believed they were drafted in a very late round and actually weren't.<<
That's horse$h!*. I played HS baseball and had a VERY outside chance of landing in one of those VERY late rounds. I didn't, and one would easily remember if they had or not.
Its one thing to exaggerate your statistics or say you were a good player when you were only average (or worse), but things like athletic scholarships and being drafted, you don't forget -- and you don't lie about either, assuming you have some character.
But even better than being Governor, my lovely flower, I was once drafted by the Toledo Mud Hen.., I mean the Oakland Ath.., ahhh the Kansas City Athletics. Yeah, that's right, the Kansas City Athletics. I was drafted in the fiftieth, no, ah the first round.
Another Democrat,
Another Lie.
Nothing is new.
Before the real sports media period of the 1980s...there wasn't a national sports media outlet except for Sporting News. You can't even count Sports Illustrated because it was simply a glossy magazine and no indepth analysis. So you could be a fairly decent pitcher for the University of Southern Alabama and not even know that you were drafted in the 8th round of the draft, unless the team agent showed up at your door and had a contract. Lets face it....Less than 500 college players throughout the nation get a chance to sign up with the majors and start their climb via the minors. Half of these players will be gone within 18 months because they just don't have it. If they are lucky, they might advance to double-A and if real lucky...then onto triple-A.
He knew Hill would drop the bomb on him during the primaries.
Hillary's minions beginning with the guys on the periphery. They will pick them off one by one while she watches in her crystal ball a la the Wicked Witch of the West.
Perhaps he ws drafted by the different "A"'s. The A-R-M-Y!
Yep, big ole bronze plaque right by the mighty Mantle, who by the way, I schooled in the art of hitting homers. One day I said, Mickster (he loved that nick)you're stepping in the bucket, keep that front foot planted.
The rest is history. Oh, Satchel Paige couldn't hit a bull in the butt with a banjo, before I got hold of him.
We started just like he'd never thrown anything, not even a dirt clod. I employed the Barney Fyfe rock skipping motion, Satchel took to it like a duck to water.
After he learned that wrist motion, well, the rest is baseball history. Oh, and I'm the only caucasian to ever play in the original Negro League. Batted .349, no errors and could throw a man out at homeplate from the bleachers sitting down.
And it's my understanding Sandy Burglar picked up on baseball players adjusting their cup and developed the nifty way to smuggle documents out of secure areas by cleverly disguising said documents as a crotch cup, claiming he was going straight to the ballfield after departing the highly secure area and didn't have time to change at the field.
As for being old, heck no, I accomplished all this in the last two days, I traveled back in time after discovering some lost manuscripts and diagrams from Einstein and DaVinci, a bit of welding and masking tape,I constructed a time machine with wet bar, built in movie screen, universal remote and 6.1 surround sound, not to mention a blonde amazon babe begged me for a ride.
The above is a trip on the way back machine to remind us all of what a traitor Richardson is and his run for President in 2008 must be weighed down by the burden of his treachery.
Now that's why I don't like Bill Richardson. None of these Clintonites wanted to keep our nuclear facilities secure. Traitorous one world scum and 99% were lawyers.
The lady lawyer (was black too) was worse than Bill Richardson. She trashed the identity card system in Los Alamos. To make this top secret laboratory into an "open campus". I'm sure she's making at least $400,000 per year at some politically connected law firm these days
This POS:
