What to Do In Staten Island Tonight

Tonight is Chien-Ming Wang bobblehead doll night at Richmond County Bank Ballpark. Wang began his career with the Staten Island Yankees in 2000 and later returned in 2002 after recovering from an injury plagued year in 2001.

The Staten Island Yankees will be immortalizing him by retiring his number, 41. Before tonight's game against Batavia there will be a ceremony honoring Wang.

The first 2000 fans to enter the ballpark will receive a special Chien-Ming Wang Bobble Head that features life-like hair.

If I remember correctly TON was involved in a big SI Yankees project when he worked at SILive, which I believe coincided with Wang's time on Staten Island.

    At one point, various members of the team would come in for chat sessions. The only problem was that no one wanted to talk to these douches.

    There were a minimum of 3 SILive employees sitting about 10 feet away, masquerading as interested chat room participants.

    One or 2 of these fools didnt even know how to type, so one of us had to do it for them.

    Bobbleheads was a ridiculous fad. I have three of them at home. They are sort of like those old WWF figures. You can't do anything with them except look at them.
