AHAHAH

I love racist fucks. I’m surprised that they didn’t bring up Manny’s hair, or include Price Fielder in the list because of his pants.

Speaking of the prince, the away announcers at the Mets game last weekend went on about his pants and what a disgrace they were for two loooooooooooong half innings. I’m talking Batitsta giving up 4 runs each half inning long.

ESPN Analyst? Gamer.

Also, no amount of linkage to FJM is too much.

My favorite part:

“Carlos Beltran hit like he was using Mjolnir for a bat”
Plus one for Thor references.
I bet Mjolnir weighs at least 100 lbs.

sorry

I guess I am so used to being in a blue state, I forgot there could still be some republican readers, sorry guys.

It's not that there could still be some republican readers

It’s that No Politics Period is one of the golden rules.

Yeah, I don't get that.

Isn’t this site owned by Kos?
Does this rule come from him, as a way to keep the audience wide, or is it by individual site? I just know I took a trip to LSB a couple weeks ago, and it’s the same as it’s always been.

It's a rule from me

And the Lord said unto them:

“Thou shalt not bring up politics on a baseball-themed blog…oh yeah, also some shit about not treating others like a dick unless you want to be a dick to yourself, or something like that, I can’t remember—mostly just the politics thing.”

thou shalt not consider BP's defensive metrics

for they do abide scripture.

by Matthew on Apr 15, 2008 9:49 PM PDT up reply actions

I stopped reading BP after the 2007 edition.

What wasn’t to love? It consisted of a lot of unfunny mean spirited snarky comments, and many admissions by the authors that the defensive metrics were bullshit.

i'm a republican

and I found your comment funny

The overall post is funny as well, but generally “gamers” as a whole are white. Tulowitzki, Utley, Inge and Rowand etc are gritty while Omar Vizquel, Vernon Wells, Beltre, etc are “talented”

So apparently Barry Zito never wins a big game

but it’s hard to win a big game when you’ve only played one season for your current team and they went 72-90

Ha.

I would LOVE to see the gamer v non-gamer game. Sweet lord.

Also, what the fuck was Ortiz doing on that list? he doesn’t field? He’s in the AL assholes.

Hey, check it out, Derek jeter never strikes guys out with men on base, he’s no fucking gamer. And he’s recorded zero saves for his career – zero – despite playing for a winning team. What’s that shit all about?

And Cal Ripken Jr can’t make free throws to save his mother’s life. Tied game, less than a minute left to play, he gets fouled, and he screws the pooch,
