So I have it set up for Yahoo to send me “alerts” for Tom Glavine articles.
I got an alert today with the following headline:
Tom Glavine named Braves pitching coach
I read it and thought, “Wait, WHAT?” I mean, I admit that I haven’t TOTALLY been paying attention to all things baseball, but, I follow enough Braves-related things on Twitter, I figured I’d have heard something about something as big as that. So, I clicked the link.
The link went here:

And this is what it said:
ATLANTA (AP) – First-year manager Fredi Gonzales says Tom Glavine is his really not-so surprising choice as the Braves pitching coach. He replaces Roger McDowell, who in an even bigger surprised is the new Georgia Tech basketball coach. Adding things that Charles says I left out.
This is Greg’s working copy of the Glavine story. gggggggggggggggggggggg
LOL. I cracked up. Someone made a mistake making THAT live on the site. *snicker* I LOVE that it got picked up by the Yahoo Alerts. I wonder what things Greg added that Charles said he left out? LOL
Here’s a screen cap (if you click on the screen cap it should open it up bigger). I saved it for posterity in case the link ends up getting axed:
It made me laugh. Ah, if only he actually was a pitching coach…..
