Poor Rick

Former rickshow profile Rick Renteria just got canned from his gig managing the Cubs.

Ricky Nolasco

Just to get this in before baseball is completely over...
Ricky Nolasco is a pitcher for the Minnesota Twins currently, but spent a some years playing for the Marlins from 2006-2013 and a brief stint in LA just prior to moving up north.

Here is a link to his career stats, courtesy of MLB.com.

Rick Roundup

I notice a few Rick stories while wandering about the internet news sites today:

First, Erykah Badu hung out on a street corner in NYC singing, and made $3.60

Second, Neil Patrick Harris was just picked to host the Oscars

Next, CNN has a list of the richest person in each state.  Richard Cohen (NH) is our only entrant.

Vote for Rick?

Do you live in Northeast Iowa?  Yeah, neither do I.  But Rick Edwards does.  

And he wants your vote:

The Rick and Jack Show

Another "other" Rick Show?  Sure!

Today we meet Rick and Jack, who have managed to create a very reasonable opening sequence and who sit in front of a green screen, yet don't ever use it to put themselves in exotic locales or the weather map or anything.

Here, they talk about their most embarrasing moments..
