Oldster Rage

40-year old Texas Rangers pitcher Kenny Rogers is in trouble again, this time for shoving cameramen and kicking a video camera to death. This comes after Rogers missed his last start because he punched a cooler and broke his pinkie. Rogers joins fellow oldsters Randy Johnson and Kevin Brown as dramatic examples of geriatric rage. I'm not trying to cast aspersions, but it seems these pitchers are able to keep throwing like men much younger than they, albeit with occasionally erratic behavior. Curiouser and curiouser... Or perhaps they're just taking Dylan Thomas's advice that "old age should burn and rave at close of day." What's next? 42-year-old Jamie Moyer biting the head off a kitten?
