Dave needs to chill
Orioles manager Dave Trembley deserves some time apart from baseball after what he's been through over the past six weeks, but he said yesterday that he'll be glued to the tube for the playoffs and World Series.
You might think he'd want to get as far away from the game as possible, at least for awhile, but the always-tactful Jerry Coleman -- who has graciously agreed to return to Baltimore and save talk radio -- got under Dave's skin when he suggested just that at Trembley's final postgame news conference of 2008.
"I never get away from baseball,'' Trembley said. "If you knew me, you wouldn't ask that question because I never get away from baseball."
Sounds like Dave needs to get away from baseball, though he seemed to cheer up considerably as soon as he got away from Coleman.

Jerry Coleman, the Padres guy? Why was he in town?

Pete's reply: No, the other Jerry Coleman, used to be the WBAL morning sports guy.

Hi Peter,
When and where is Jerry Coleman coming back to? Good grief, he has alienated more people than a Wall Street executive.

Hey Pete... Please, No more ranking predictions for the Terps. Nada, Nil, Zip, None, No. Me thinks you jinxed them......

Coleman got under someone's skin? Surprise! I give him a lot of credit, though. He made it through three weeks before it happened. Congrats to Jerry on a new personal record.

Jerry Coleman is as bad as you get.
