Goat signing away the rights to his lawn mower so LeBron can return to the Cavs.

@Erin-

What the hell did you feed that poor man to get him to worship his lawnmower? I mean we all know how tidy suburbanites like their lawns, but this is extreme. Our Lady of Perpetual Mulch? The Order of Sts. Briggs and Stratton? St. Jean Deere?

Ah, goodnight. MR

@MR-

Don't know about the trade but a million years ago I had a Rocky Colavito Louisville Slugger.

Googling now.

@RJ-

The thing about the Colavito trade was that the move they made to bring him back to Cleveland was even more harmful than the move they made to send him away. They gave up a future Rookie-of-the-Year in Tommy Agee and a kid named Tommy John, who had 286 wins in the bigs ahead of him. Oh, and he invented that operation too.

@MR-

I found sites with all the players and stats from both trades. Obviously a big part of Tribe lore. Thanks for the heads up.

Goat vs. Entropy

Which got me to wonderin', do lawn mowers still have flat tappet cams, and if so, do they need zinc additives like old cars?

Turns out, lawn mowers still have flat tappets, but the spring pressures are so low there is no issue with zinc deletion in modern oils. Some even use plastic camshafts. Fascinating.
