Jimmy Scott's Psychic Connection With Doug Glanville & The New York Times


By Jimmy Scott - Posted on 23 December 2008

I swear there's a psychic quality to me.  I've written here before about how for many years I could think of a certain Brady Bunch episode and, voila, I'd be flipping around the channels not too much later and see it.  Yesterday, I was working on next week's Monday Morning Interview with Dave Page, strength & conditioning coach for the Boston Red Sox, when I thought of the song "Let's Go" by The Cars.  I hadn't thought of that song in years and hadn't heard it in more than that.  Within 30-minutes - this is all true - I heard the song on the radio.

Yesterday must have been a day of stars and moon alignments for Jimmy Scott (me).  I should ask our resident sports astrologist, Andrea Mallis, what this all means.  Te psychic-ness (by the way, being a psychic and astrologer are very different things, Andrea will tell you that) I felt yesterday must have transferred over to today.  Why?  Yesterday's Monday Morning Interview was with Doug Glanville.  I sent him an email with the link to our now-public discussion.  I communictated with former Phillies utility player Desi Relaford about Doug while Curt Schilling and I traded emails about him.  And as I spoke to former Phillies reliever Wayne Gomes, I told him all about Doug's NY Times articles, which Wayne knew about but hadn't read.  And, to cap it off, I told someone else about Doug's business, GK Alliance, and what they do.  It was a very Doug Glanville day.

Today must be too.

I "fired up" my computer (imagine if we had to start our computer by literally putting logs around it and lighting a match; I guess that might be better than a hand crank) about 15-minutes ago, click on Internet Explorer (no, I'm not a Mac guy, shoot me) and my home page - the New York Times - opens.  And what do I see?  There, in the right-hand column of the "paper," is an Opinion icon.  Under it, Heading Home: A Gift From Puerto Rico.

By Doug Glanville.

I sense my case of Psychic Glanville abilities are complete.  It's happened before when I've written aboutDoug Brocail and Tony Clark.  I wonder who's next.  Mike TorrezJason GrilleScott BrosiusFred Claire?

Ahh, if only I had interviewed Debbie Clemens. (Don't tell Vanessa I said that, and I guess Roger too.)

You'll have to excuse me now.  I need to read my latest NY Times article by Doug Glanville.
