Who else but new Washington Nationals manager Dusty Baker could weave references to Stevie Wonder, the Doors, Bill Russell, Al Attles, Bill Walsh, President Obama and color-changing lizards into his introductory news conference?

"My friends call me a chameleon, because they think I can adapt to any place, any time, anywhere. And so I would like to think that I transcend different generations, like some musicians. I mean, Stevie Wonder still sounds good. And The Doors might sound even better.
