    Let me introduce you to Farney

    From Hal McCoy's column today:

    Ryan Freel said not even Farney believed that Freel made the
    stupendous diving catch on Albert Pujols Tuesday.

    Farney? Who's Farney?

    "He's a little guy who lives in my head who talks to me and I talk to him," said Freel, acting as if he finally crashed into too many walls, ran into too many catchers and dived into too many dugouts.

    "That little midget in my head said, 'That was a great catch, Ryan,' I said, 'Hey, Farney, I don't know if that was you who really caught that ball, but that was pretty good if it was.' Everybody thinks I talk to myself, so I tell 'em I'm talking to Farney.' "

    Hilarious!!??

    I wonder if Mr. Farney still believes that Jack Tripper is gay?

    Would his following be "Farney's Farmy?"

    Did Freel actually say this? When did this happen that Freel had this interview. Not questioning that he did, just curious when he did.

    Sometimes he beats it up against my mind"
    Wear gaudy colors, or avoid display. Lay a million eggs or give birth to one. The fittest shall survive, yet the unfit may live. Be like your ancestors or be different. We must repeat!
