Holland's Hometown Reaction

My wife has family that lives in Newark, OH, which is the hometown of Derek Holland. Newark is about 30 miles east of Columbus and is very close to the hometown of Nick Swisher. Let's hope that Holland is less of a douche than Swish.
Anyway, not much exciting goes on in Newark. I visited recently and it's a pretty quiet, out of the way place. There are a bunch of new Rangers fans there, though.

The comments to that story are depressing. You get the feeling the people of Newark are hurting pretty bad right now if this is the only good thing that’s happening to them.
Signature! I don't need no stinking signature!!

The recession
has hit them a lot harder than it has us down here. It was already tough up there to begin with.

not to deviate
far from the main story here, but I am getting a little tired of the strangely forced jabs at Nick Swisher. From all accounts, he is a great clubhouse guy and is usually one of the more popular guys on his team. I don’t know where his firmly entrenched “douche” rep came from, and everyone is certainly entitled to their opinion, but come on, guys. If this guy was a Ranger, we would all love him. At this point, it seems like just another example of viral internet idea spreading, where if you read something enough you just accept it as fact.
What is this, Horseville? Because I'm surrounded by naysayers.
