Get your walking shoes on

Former Orioles executive Jim Duquette is helping organize a walk on Saturday to raise funds for the fight against Nephrotic Syndrome, a kidney disease his daughter, Lindsey, is battling. If you donate $20 and participate in the walk, which starts at 5:30 p.m. at Sliders Bar & Grille across from Camden Yards, you’ll get a complimentary ticket to the Orioles-Braves game that night.

Due to recent injuries I will not be able to walk but think it is a worthy cause.Can I just pay the $20.00 so I don't have to watch the Orioles?

About Peter Schmuck
Peter Schmuck wants you to know that, contrary to popular belief, he is more than just a bon vivant, raconteur and collector of blousy flowered shirts. He is a semi-respected journalist who has covered virtually every sport -- except luge, of course – and tackled issues that transcend the mere games people play. If that isn’t enough to qualify him to provide witty, wide-ranging commentary on the sports world ... and the rest of the world, for that matter ... he is an avid reader of history, biography and the classics, as well as a charming blowhard who pops off on both sports and politics on WBAL Radio. That means you can expect a little of everything in The Schmuck Stops Here, but the major focus will be keeping you up to the minute on Baltimore’s major sports teams and themes, whether it’s throwing up the Orioles lineup the minute it’s announced or updating you on the latest sprained ankle in Owings Mills. Oh, and by the way, that’s Mr. Schmuck to you.
