Candidate

Bobby Valentine recently announces that he's running as an Independent candidate for mayor of my hometown of Stamford, Connecticut. Bobby and I graduated from Rippowam High School. He went off to play for the Los Angeles Dodgers. I remember when Bobby Valentine was the manager of the New York Mets in the last subway series against the Yankees. I will be watching the election closely.
