Bavasi Retaliates With Awesomeness

Bill Bavasi has some choice words for Florida Marlins president, Dave Samson:
-------
"My mother always taught me that if the only thing you have to say is, '(Expletive) Dave Samson,' then don't say anything at all," Bavasi said Thursday. "So I'm not going to say anything at all. Is my mother the greatest or what?"
-------
More goodness, Ichiro's agent rips him:
-------
Agent Tony Attanasio, who orchestrated Ichiro's contract, was nonplussed by Samson's comments.

"Apparently Mr. Samson has never heard of a guy named (Tom) Hicks or the Texas Rangers or something that happened there a few years ago," Attanasio said of the A-Rod contract. "I don't know what he's talking about, but obviously he doesn't know too much about baseball."
-------

I dont care much for Bavasi, but saying 'Fuck Dave Samson' is just awesome.

That is
by far, the greatest thing I've ever heard. It's like Bavasi is tired of Ichiro having all the awesome quotes this year, and wanted to join in.

Regardless of what you think about his GM
abilities, Bill Bavasi is still one cool motherfucker.

Fuck Dave Samson? Damn right Bill.

So I think it's safe to say we don't be dealing
for Willis now....or any other Marlin for that matter, for quite a while.

Its safe to say
They wont be signing any free agents represented by Ichiro's agent, either.

It's not like he's Tampa Bay.
Try having one player in the majors make more than your entire team. Than you can complain.

Just another
benefit of the contract!

Another reminder that
while we might not like all of his baseball decisions, as a person, Bavasi is ridiculously awesome.

Put that on a shirt
and I bet that sells, lol

Samson
arouses the fire that's dormant in the innermost recesses of Bavasi's soul.

If only
He was as awesome as a GM as he was when he lost his temper! :) That's an awesome quote.
Willie is ours, and you can't have him
