So why was Vargas out after 73 pitches?
Just not stretched out enough yet?

I don't know. He's been starting in Tacoma so that explanation doesn't hold much water.

Yep, this question is a good one and will lead lots of interesting places no doubt

I guess I could e-mail him about it
It didn’t seem to be some sort of personal issue to me, but I’ll admit I haven’t read every thread here so perhaps I missed something. It’s just that I’ve seen him bring it up multiple times, even when he, Adam J. Morris (lone star ball) and a few other guys had a roundtable chat previewing the AL West before the season.
It just seemed like an obsession to me so I figured I’d see if there was anything in particular about it.

Even if I don’t find a joke funny, it’s hard to piss me off over it… even Tourette’s jokes (I have that… and I fully expect to hear lots of coprolalia jokes even though I don’t have that). I just wonder about motivation for the same not-so-funny joke being said over and over again, which is what started this whole thing in the first place.

He brought it up there a few times, and that’s where I really took notice of it. My computer hates 900-post gameday threads so I’ve missed quite a lot of what’s been said here.
by Inkara1 on May 12, 2009 10:01 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
My take:
“Josh Hamilton’s story is so amazing!” stories are way more annoying than “Josh Hamilton does drugs!” jokes.
In general I think most of us would agree that overuse will kill pretty much any joke, but there’s also a tendency here at LL to make jokes in bad taste just for the fun/irony/sarcasm/whatever you want to call it. I wouldn’t expect you to fully understand the way we work — and kudos for not being a complete asshole in this thread — but there’s some context that is probably lost on non-regulars. We really are sticklers for stamping out lame or overused jokes.
by Teej on May 12, 2009 10:04 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I figure it's hard to blame Hamilton for that being the only way an AL West team gets attention from ESPN, though.
Was the drug addiction his own doing? You bet. He’ll be the first to admit to that. I think the idea is that if he can find a way to get himself out of what hole, hopefully the many others in the same situation can find a way to do the same.
by Inkara1 on May 12, 2009 10:10 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I find it pretty inspirational.
I’m also really, really tired of hearing about it. It’s nothing against him — just the saturation and incessant nature of the story.
by Teej on May 12, 2009 10:12 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I do not find it inspirational at all.
But then I am so old that I have known way too many people who try to turn their massive life failures and subsequent repentance into some sort of heroic story.
I find people who never fuck up far more inspirational.

I am glad that he goes around trying to help out others who are in the same situation he was in.
That doesn’t mean he’s going to escape occasional jabs from us. Nobody does even players on our own team that we actually adore. I mean hell, we make gay porn jokes about our center fielder at an incredible rate.

Meh, I wouldn't say we don't take offense here. We just take offense to different things.
I know people have been offended by what I’ve said here and vice versa. Though, I would say that in general, we’re not just randomly dicks to people, and we don’t take offense as personally. We’re just offended for a bit, then we forgive and forget.
At least, that’s how I’ve seen it.
