Crikey

Last week, when we were in Disney World, we noticed these Mickey Mouse Crocs at all the souvenir stands but didn't see anyone wearing them.

Actually, we saw very few people wearing any variety of these ugly rubber shoes.

I couldn't decide whether that was because of the cool (for Florida) weather or because these stupid shoes are finally going out of style.

I'm still trying to figure out why they ever became trendy in the first place.

If they are out of style, no one has told Clay Buchholz.

Not a good look for young Clay. His new wife should do a better job of making sure he doesn't look so geeky.

But if he continues to develop this year into the front-line starter we have all been waiting for, then he can wear Crocs 24 hours a day - just not when he's pitching.
