Love Will Tear Us Apart

Wait a second.

There was a rumor going around that Dusty Baker’s daughter was dating and/or engaged to He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named?

And I missed it?

When I first heard this “rumor” my first reaction was:

“GROSS!”

I mean, we see Darren Baker running around all the time and he’s, what, 10-years-old?  I figured if he had a sister she’d have to be no older than sixteen.  Then when I saw that Baker’s daughter is 28-years-old, I was relieved.

If the two were dating it was just plain stupidity, not youthful indiscretion.

Whatever the case may be, the rumor makes too much sense to not be true.  I mean, it’s too funny to be a rumor, right?  Here we were all thinking that He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named possessed incriminating photos of Dusty Baker, or that He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named is the CEO of the toothpick company that produces the toothpicks that Baker fancies so much.

But this – Baker’s daughter dating He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named – this is just brilliant.  Not only does it show that bad judgment is hereditary, it shows that Dusty Baker is incapable of managing his own family, let alone a baseball team, because who lets their daughter date a guy barely hitting over .200?

Dusty Baker, that’s who.  Allegedly.
