An open letter from Tony Gwynn's Belly to Tony Gwynn

Dear Tony,

It's hard to talk what with the surgery scars and all, but I'll be brief.

When times got tough and you brought up the idea of taking a break from each other, did I complain? No. I worked with you. I said, "Tony Gwynn and Tony Gwynn's Belly are two peas in a plus size pod." I said, "Ain't no way he gets rid of me for good."

Now, these steps. What you do. I'm not sure how else I'm supposed to feel about this, except that I don't feel that I'm as big a part of your life anymore. We got through the Wheaties thing and we came back bigger and better, but now? You hurt me. Physically. Emotionally. Mostly physically. 

Missing you,

TGB
