Eat a steaming bowl of fuck and choke on it....

Leave my Phillies alone. I hate the Yankees, The Mets, and the Red Sox.
Actually, I don't give a shit. Gimme a new Stones record and I'll retreat to my stereo.

Papelbon's K of Burrell was the work of a cold-blooded assasin. Just brutal.
Papi is ridiculous - that shot landed halfway up the CF bleachers, for God's sake. I hope to God there's not a rain-out tomorrow, because he & Manny are both fully entrenched in the groove right now and I want to see some more dongs. |

I could understand such chippiness if your team was in first...
or had four consecutive years of sellouts....
or was closer than 11 games behind the leader...
still bitter about letting Ortiz go for nothing? I'd be too.....
OK now

Again, I must query, is that some sort of Iron Range math? 86 does not = 100....and 11 games out means you're not in first. I mean you might try and make a comeback with something that actually added up. Try mentioning Santana more.... |

the only reason we aren't in first, einstein, is because the only two teams that have been just as hot as the twins lately are in front of us.
Einstein would know that NO team is hotter than the Bosox, winners of eight (8) straight Einstein would also know that the Bosox play in another division besides the Twins so your "only two teams that have been just as hot as the twins lately are in front of us" is as wrongheaded as giving up Ortiz for NOTHING!!!! LOL!!!!!!

and even with the sweep, the Bosox are in first
they have won eight straight
and the Twins are in third
11 games out
you get what you pay for....
how much did you pay Ortiz?

Not for nothing, however, I once again contend that the team from Philly is coming apart. They actually allowed the manager proclaimed "best pitcher" to start this game, despite the fact he pummelled his wife on a Boston street 12 hours earlier. Probably only The Phils following the lead from Major leage Baseball, who would suspend a player for 50 games for taking steriods, but have lukewarm response to domestic abuse. Hard to fathom? Read on....
Visiting player hit wife, police charge
By Suzanne Smalley, Globe Staff | June 24, 2006
Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Brett Myers and his wife were walking back from a bar late Thursday night to their Back Bay hotel when an argument broke out. Authorities and witnesses say Myers then assaulted his wife, leaving her sitting on the sidewalk with a swollen face, crying.
She told police her husband hit her in the face twice with his fist, according to the police report. Witnesses said he slapped her and then pulled her off the ground by her hair.
Myers, 25, and the Phillies were in Boston for a series with the Red Sox.
The player was arraigned yesterday in Boston Municipal Court on charges of assault and battery. He was released after pleading not guilty, according to David Procopio, a spokesman for Suffolk District Attorney Daniel F. Conley.
Kim Myers, 28, bailed her husband out by posting $200 shortly after the arrest.
Procopio said it is unclear whether Myers punched his wife or slapped her.
Myers declined to comment at Fenway Park yesterday, referring reporters to his lawyer. Two calls to his lawyer were not returned.
The team's general manager, Pat Gillick, said, ``Certainly the Phillies are here and are ready to support not only Brett and Kim, but any of our players."
Myers, who won 13 games for the Phillies last season, is considered one of the team's top starting pitchers . He will face Curt Schilling at Fenway Park today as planned, according to Larry Shenk, a Phillies spokesman.
Courtney Knight, 26, who witnessed the alleged attack at 900 Boylston St. with two friends, said in a telephone interview that Myers seemed ``really angry."
``He was dragging her by the hair and slapping her across the face," Knight said. ``She was yelling, `I'm not going to let you do this to me anymore.' "
Knight said the 6-foot-4 -inch, 240-pound ballplayer dwarfed his wife, whom police report at 5 feet 4 inches and 120 pounds.
``She's a real small girl," Knight said. ``It was awful."
Knight said Myers was undeterred by the presence of her and her friends.
``He had her on the ground," Knight said. ``He was trying to get her to go, and she was resisting. She curled up and sat on the ground. He was pulling her, her shirt was up around her neck. . . . He could have cared less that we were there."
One of her friends, Sly Egidio, 30, of East Boston, said Myers appeared to pull his wife ``out of her shoes" before hitting her.
``I watched him just haul off and smack her in the face," Egidio said. ``She said: `I'm tired of this. I'm all done.' "
Egidio said Kim Myers was on the ground crying when her husband pulled her up by her hair.
``This was violent," Egidio said. ``This was wrong. Even if it was a Red Sox [player], I would have done something. And I love the Red Sox." Egidio works for Boston Baseball magazine, distributing it at Fenway.
The report said that officers responded to the 911 call at 12:26 a.m. and found Kim Myers crying and with a slight swelling on the left side of her face.
The police report said a woman accompanying the player and his wife told police they were fighting because he wanted to return to their hotel and she did not. She also told police she saw Myers pull his wife toward the hotel but did not see him strike her.
Shenk, the Phillies spokesman, declined to discuss how the team's management treats domestic violence.
``Out of respect for the privacy of both Kim and Brett Myers, the Phillies will not comment on this incident until the matter is resolved by the court," said a statement released by the team yesterday.
Mike Teevan, a spokesman for Major League Baseball, said the league has no policy requiring suspension of players charged or convicted in domestic violence cases.
``We're obviously very concerned about it," Teevan said. ``But it was an off-field incident and it's the player's private life. We're going to let the legal system run its course."
According to a Major League Baseball website, Myers married Kim Wickman in 2002 and they have a 3-year-old daughter.
Myers's next court date is Aug. 4, but the municipal court judge ruled that he does not have to attend the session.

Phils are rumored to be looking to add another hitter to their line up - Wil Cordero.

Yeah, that could get dodgy.
C. Everett Kook might be a better option. |

I kind of liked old Jurassic Carl, despite the fact that he's crazier than a shithouse rat.
For example:
- the nutty he threw on Ron Culpa on national TV - that was some good viewing!
- breaking up Mussina's no-no with 2 strikes and 2 outs in the 9th. Though his performance that game may have been upstaged by the drunk Tony Cloninger staggering out to talk to Cone.
- "Curly-Haired Boyfriend". Brilliant and inspired.
Carl's got nothing on Uggie Urbina, but he was a bright ray of insanity on some otherwise unlikeable Sox teams. |

Yeah, the Sox have had a knack of attracting these head cases, all the way back to Jimmy Piersall.
Kulpa umped 1st yesterday, Joe & Jerry mentioned Ol' Carl... |

Peter Gammons is in surgery for a brain aneurysm right now - hope he pulls through and recovers quickly.
The father of modern baseball writing and a good Masshole, as well.
Get well, Pete! |
