Grimsley

Listening to Olberman and Patrick, and they brought up a rather interesting point:
Grimsley has a boatload of money not from baseball, but from marrying money. The family that he married into has ties to pharmaceutical companies. Meaning Grimsley might not be talking to avoid tax evasion or to save face, but to keep the family corporation from getting smacked the fuck around.
Also, he played for the Phillies when that roided bunch went to the Series, the Indians when they scored 1000 runs and the Yankees when they did so well in the late 90's. He also played with three other teams so, essentially, he knows a lot of stuff about a lot of people, and he will be obliged to talk as opposed to "I'm not here to talk about the past/"
