  1. Nailed it. You know he was sitting there, thinking he had to somehow comment on this, and when all was said and done that's what he came up with. Even da Bum would be shaking his head.
  2. No he doesn't and like pretty much everything Hawk talks about, he's wrong. Pierzynski could have broken Zobrist's ankle with his slide yesterday and I wouldn't have faulted Zobrist one bit if he would have gone Michael Barrett and decked Pierzynski. The wasn't a takeout slide, it was total bush league. Pierzynski deserved to get plunked, he did, and that should have been the end of it. Instead, that moron Sox pitcher decided to try to hit Zobrist, which he couldn't even do successfully. He deserved to get tossed and he did because it was completely unnecessary. This. I don't understand why so many people think Hawk was right about this. At least this morning on the Score Hawk said that warnings should have been issued after AJ got plunked (which he admitted he deserved). I agree with that, but the lack of a warning doesn't mean it isn't within the ump's judgement to toss someone for blatantly going after somebody. Wegner was well within his right to judge intent, and there was absolutely intent. Hawk's the one who should go to umpiring school and learn the rules. Yeah, all of the radio bits I've heard today about this have been reliably meatball-y and only mention A.J. getting plunked and not that it was in retaliation for the slide.
  3. Wait...Fox? Jake Fox?
  4. Yeah, what the [expletive]? Choi was still plenty praised at the time; he had been the #22 prospect just the year before and I remember a lot of commentary at the time saying the Cubs had made a mistake moving him for Lee.
  5. How dare you slander the DH like that. GIVE US THE DH, PLEASE!
  6. might? Well, there's a lot of baseball history, and you probably had at least a few ranting about "ethnics" over the years.
  7. Who are the "two hitters?" Castro and LaHair?
  8. Yeah, everyone's really falsely "suckling" at a guy who has been around a 15 WAR starter for the Cubs and worth his contract. Get back here, Gville, so we can savage you.
  9. I just went running around my apartment laughing hysterically. Fuckin' awesome, Darwin.
  10. TRAMAPOLINE! TRAMBOMPOLINE! Please eat ALL of the balls, Quentin.
  11. http://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=/i/headshots/mlb/players/full/3966.png&w=350&h=254 Well played.
  12. Because if you don't he'll force you to. http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lgisk6GnaM1qgq4hio1_500.gif
  13. Yeah, I did some kind of whoop/cry of terror as that all went down.
  14. Still plenty of time; the Cubs will not be denied.
  15. Thumbs up for the shot of the ginger leather cowboy.
