Riggleman reportedly will appear on Oprah Winfrey's television show and will confess to the murders of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman.

Millions of American yentas will hoot and holler and burst into tears of joy as Oprah comes back from a commercial break and awards them all a coupon for a free bar of soap.

Wow what a fuckin shitbag to just walk out on his team in the middle of the season. You signed a contract shit stain. Honor it. I hope he never gets another job in baseball again.

After listening to Riggs, he pulled the "Walkout" negotiating technique, I don't think he really wanted to quit, but they let him keep walking.

Perfect time for Dusty to go to Washington, after he calls Strassburg to see if he is coming back, then he will go see Bryce and if these guys are ready, he will consider it.

Young cheap players are one of the great ingredients in winning baseball.

Kiss Strassburg's career goodbye if Dusty ever came to Washington.

Jim Riggleman doesn't regret his shocking decision Thursday to resign as Washington Nationals manager, but he did admit Friday to having some second thoughts about drowning his sorrows afterward at a popular D.C. nightspot.

"I should never have done that," a sheepish Riggleman told "The Waddle & Silvy Show" on WMVP-AM 1000, when asked about Internet photos (shown here) of him drinking with young women at a bar called Caddies. "But look, I'm a single man, and you gotta let those college girls get a look at you now and then, you know?"

Asked if he would be returning to the bar Friday night, Riggleman, 58, said, "No, I'm too old for Caddies. Those girls in those pictures, their boyfriends are right there, they're calling me daddy."
Riggleman -- who again defended his decision to resign by citing a lack of respect shown by the team's refusal to pick up the option year on his contract -- said he will be watching on TV when the Nationals play the Chicago White Sox this weekend at U.S. Cellular Field.

"I've got the remote in my hand any time I'm watching, I'll be watching 3-4 games at the same time," said Riggleman, who managed the Chicago Cubs from 1995-99 and says he still follows the North Side team.

"You've got a good one there in (manager) Mike Quade," Riggleman said. "Mike Quade is not a guy you want to make a living managing against, he is really good."

Asked about struggling Sox slugger Adam Dunn, who starred last season for Riggleman's Nationals, he said, "I am really surprised. I still think Adam is going to come out of it and get it going. ... This guy is really a good hitter, he's not just a slugger. This guy has an idea what he's doing up there.

"I'm not sure what the problem is, but I guarantee, when you look up at the end, he'll have at least 25 if not 30 (homers) and then next year get back on his pace

The more I hear about this story, I'm a huge fan of Jim Riggleman. He knew he wasn't making it past the season, even if they made the playoffs. He has many friends in baseball, and could be an interesting selection in the next two years.
