Buy your own Indian!

I thought this was an interesting little note and potentially wise investment for the savvy buyer. Does this fellow Dave Newsom have a decent shot at breaking into the bigs?  25 years old already and doesn't seem to be breaking down any doors thus far, but for $20, why not right?  link below

Re: Buy your own Indian!
Bill Murray says we've had this discussion 3 times

In all seriousness though, its an interesting thought. Like someone said before for the sake of $20 its not a huge risk, but the reward probably won't be much

Actually, in the picture it looks likes he's saying we've had it 8 times.

Re: Buy your own Indian!
So, if we were to imagine an epilogue for Groundhog Day, what's the explanation?

Does Andi McDowell realize/share with her friends that the man she loves learned how to ice sculpt, play piano, and woo her all while trapped in a single day for over 6 years?

Or do they just not talk about it anymore?

I'm glad I am not the only one who wonders that.
I swear, next year is it.

Re: Buy your own Indian!
Hey, we just signed some Japanese reliever. Mitsubishi something-or-other. I wonder if we'll pick up Borowski's option now?

Re: Buy your own Indian!
The investment potential would be much higher if he was still a Red Sox (or other big market) farm hand, but I'm still investing.

Then again, he's a 25 year old Double-A pitcher who's not setting the world on fire, so I don't expect to get that money back.

This diary has been up for three days, and I just now realized how unintentionally inappropriate it may appear to outsiders.
