Uncle Buck!
Unconfirmed reports: Buck asked to be paid a million, ka-gillion, fa-fillion dollars to manage the Orioles.
Seriously though, I wish him the best of luck. Most of the Yankee games I get to see are at Camden Yards ($88 for the best seats in the house!!). Lately, it’s like the O’s don’t even care about winning or tasing fans on the field or anything for that matter.
