As O’Brien says, Tyler’s rookie year is probably over. There’s very little point in an out-of-shape Hansbrough trying to race back for the final 10 games of a pointless Pacers season. The last thing you would want is for him to catch a Kurt Rambis-type clothesline going up for a lay up or smack his head on the floor diving for a loose ball — as he’s been known to do. Let’s just keep the docs on the case, figure out what’s going on and hope he can — literally — get his head right over the Summer. Hopefully, that’s all it takes.


But in “officially troubling” news … Tim earlier brought up the Wikipedia entry for former Cincinnati Red and Boston Red Sox Nick Esasky.

Though he twice hit more than 20 home runs in a season with the Reds, his best statistical year came in 1989 as a member of the Boston Red Sox to whom he was traded for switch-hitting first baseman/outfielder Todd Benzinger. During that season, he hit .277 with 30 home runs and 108 runs batted in. That offseason, as a free agent, Esasky signed a three-year, $5.6 million contract with the Atlanta Braves, but was forced to retire after playing just nine games due to developing vertigo stemming from an ear infection. His salary was paid for by insurance.

Yup.


This is officially troubling.

Man, your signature is crazy. And you could tell that it was real because the man beside him immediately began to attempt to restrain him. Hope he got slapped around a little bit himself before the night was over.
