Boy is Piazza old, having seen a Seals game

I'm sure plenty of Quebec-born NHL'ers are echoing the sentiments about missing Expos baseball, which unlike the NHL, will never be back

As the toasts end, Rich Harden, Eric Byrnes and Adam Melhuse walk in. They're here to both support the book, but I think to also listen to Sally Zito and her brother play later in the bar of the steakhouse.

I wind up chatting with Harden. He remembers meeting me before, which is funny because he winds up being the only player I met to remember meeting me already. Harden is also another of the A's classy players. He's got star written all over him, yet he pauses to talk with me about the effect the hockey season cancellation has had on his family back home. Apparently a lot at first, not so much anymore. He also talks about hitting the weights hard in the offseason and working his arm into shape. He feels ready to go and it's only March 23. It's good to be an A's fan.

I hope Piazza was joking when he said he would be a good NHL defenseman if he played for 6 months to "get his wind back". Oh, but he has to work on skating backwards first.

Good luck, as a pro athlete he should how far out to lunch that statement is!
