If I’m Thinking Of The Right Guy

Saw this headline on AJC.com’s front page, and assumed the Hampton in question was an obscure folk singer, or maybe a particular haircut that was popular in the seventies:

I do appreciate the fact that they put “ready” and “comeback” in quotes, as if to mock the suggestion, though I think they should take that tactic one step further:

“Hampton” “ready” for “comeback”

Maybe “for” should be in quotes, too. Personally, I’m more interested in the cute kids who are helping feed strays.

I can’t even believe I have a Hampton tag. When and why did I create that?

    Whoever wrote “ready” must have been paying attention to the Braves over the last few years. ;)

      You were right about Heap being at Camp Roger and Frenchy was there as well. Pictures—Heap is in the last one and I’m not really feeling his haircut. Maybe it’s just a bad picture though.

    God do I love that Frenchy showed up at the pitcher camp. Glorious. Though for some reason Andruw did, too. I guess he has his own ~*issues*~

    Heap does look like he lost weight. His hair is approaching faux hawk, which I’m hoping is a mistake.

      That’s what thought as well. I hope you’re right.

      His pants are still huge though. ;)

    Now the AJC has a tag that reads:

    Hampton “fine,” to make spring comeback

    It’s like they’re reading our minds! :D
