TV today.

I’ll be on ESPNEWS via phone at 2:20 pm EDT sometime in the next hour. Stay tuned.

Also, thanks to those of you who chimed in on the water heater. We went with a tank over tankless; the configuration of our basement was going to make the installation of the tankless very expensive, so even after the rebate and tax credit it was an additional ~$1500 to go tankless. We don’t really want to stay in this house for that long anyway, so making that kind of investment just for the psychic value (having the “cool” toy, helping the environment) didn’t make sense.

  1. Uncool earth killer.

  2. I went through the same analysis on a water heater earlier this winter – with the same result. Great idea; couldn’t make it work. My real question, though, is what is the best way to respond to a tweet that asks a question like that?

  3. Please forgive the non-baseball, non-cooking, non-JobaROOGYmeme, non-lit intrusion but:

    I assume this readership is smart enough to pick their own cause, but please vote (and if you’re not voting for your own cause of choice, vote for The Kempe Foundation)

  4. Hi Keith,

    Just wanted to tell you how much I appreciated this:

    “What the hell do I want to talk about A-Rod for? He’s not playing. A writer who has been after him for years put out more allegations, some serious and some absolutely absurd (he’s not a great tipper????). It’s not a baseball topic, and if I’m doing non-baseball topics, let’s talk food or books or something that’s actually worth the expenditure of electrons.”

    I’m no fan of A-Rod, but I hate the “TMZ-ing” of this wonderful sport of ours. I wish more writers (and your employer) took this stand. Thanks again, keep up the good work.

  5. Hey Keith,

    Saw this article in Buster Olney’s blog today.

    Are those speed gun readings (end of article) anywhere near accurate? Joel Zumaya – 104.6??

  6. No, that’s absolutely ridiculous. I’ve seen Zumaya and never gotten him over 98. I don’t believe it is physically possible for a human being to throw a baseball 104 mph.
