My brows always raise and my eyesroll when CMo (hisself being the winner of many silver, golden, and platinum sombreros during his playing seasons, and suffering the indignity of being DFAed relatively early in a season), explains the art and intricacies of becoming a better hitter @ the dish.

But unlike most all of his ex-Tiger brethren who have faded into obscurity, he has taken full advantage of initially getting his toe in the door of local sports media several years ago, gradually worming his way into filling in as color guy for FSD broadcasts, and becoming more relevant, no matter what the Tigers teevee audiences might think about his attention-seeking antics and delivery.
