Eyre's stomach

[B]

cubs.com

 

Scott Eyre was not available on Tuesday because of an upset stomach. "Eyre had a terrible stomach to the point where he didn't want to have an accident on the mound," Baker said. "Then you'd really have something to write about." ...

 

You would have to love your manager telling everyone you are unavailable b/c you might have soiled yourself.

It happens sometimes. Once, when I worked in retail, I was having a similar problem around an hour before I had to be at work. I called my manager to let him know, and he said it was too late so unless I was going to have a doctor's note, I better be at work. I wasn't going to pay for a doctor's visit for a case of the runs, so I went to work. Needless to say, for the first half of my four-hour shift, Dillards paid me $9/hour to sit in the john.

When I was in college working retail part time, that was my typical shift!

I can't stop laughing about this. I imagine Eyre told him this in confidence, and I'm just imagining his reaction when he heard/read Dusty's quote.

 

:shock:

dusty wont throw a veteran under the bus for screwin up or not hitting, but he will tell the press he has the runs. this is the best laugh i have had this week.

Actually there was a quote from Eyre in the same article. Although he didn't mention having the runs he did say he had a stomach problem from some bad Chipotle

Hey Dusty, couldn't you just say Eyre was not available Tuesday due to a stomach flu? [-(

I still don't see it, but saying you have a stomach ache is a far cry from having your boss tell anyone who will listen that you could have crapped yourself.

"Hey coach, can't go today. I got a bad case of the butt vomits!"

You would have to love your manager telling everyone you are unavailable b/c you might have s*** on yourself.

 

You are assuming that he'd crap himself. Maybe he was just going to vomit. :wink:

I could continue with a story about my mom and a night gown...but since my "joke" didn't go over too well, I'll just leave it to your imagination. Your loss.

Eyre was the one who said that he had bad Chipotle (which to me is redundant, but whatever floats your boat).

 

I wonder how far the run is from the bullpen to the clubhouse bathroom? :lol:

In a thread about upset stomachs, do we really need to talk about what floats?

That event really changed my life...for the worse. But it does make a REALLY good drunken story. I always work "refried bean consistency" into it. Vivid adjectives and details make the story.

 

...maybe I should have waited until I had 10,000 posts to mention this stuff.

Actually, 10,000 posts has absolutely nothing to do with it. My post about foul language neither quoted you or was directed only at you. It was directed at anyone who was using it.

 

I'll thank you for not assuming in the future that you are being targeted. I really don't care how many posts someone has. NSBB guidelines does not state that once you have achieved so many posts that you can skirt NSBB guidelines.

Thanks!
