R.A Dickey doesn’t need to climb up the mountain. He can fly, we all know that.

So do I. I bet you that Dickey will have his eyes peeled for that leopard carcass, too.

I think it was Tim Allen who once joked,”Never climb a mountain with a ‘kill a man’ in its name.”

Good luck to those who will be climbing.

Is it just me, or is the fact Slowey used the word “remiss” in a sentence — in context, mind you — not one of the more startling facets of this story? I mean, wow.

It’s just me, isn’t it?

Man… this joke has been going around Facebook a lot lately.

“A “NY Yankees”, “NY Mets”, and “Red Sox” fan are climbing a mountain, and arguing about who loves his team more. The Mets fan insists he is the most loyal. ”This is for the Mets”, he yells, and jumps off the mountain. Not to be outdone, the Yankees fan is next to profess his love for his team. He yells “This is for the Yankees!!!” and pushes the Red Sox fan off the mountain.”

My 64-year-old doctor just did this about a month ago, so I suspect these two professional athletes stand a good chance of making it to the top and back.

That was so funny I watched it twice. Was that guy drunk for the whole thing or is normally that twitchy?

Climbing a mountain eh? Well it’s certainly going to be easier than leading the Mets to a winning record on the season……

Not something I’d consider doing. Unless I could get a helicopter to drop me off and pick me up on the peak.

R.A. Dickey 1, meet Kevin Slowey 2. And of course we have the 6 Molina brothers.

Are they planning to build a bridge between the two mountains?
