What GM in their right mind would sign Roidger?

Posted Tuesday September 23, 2008, About: Has Moss thrown in towel?
It wasn't just Moss. I was right behind the Pats bench for the game (actually, three rows behind from where Randy was "sulking") and the whole team looked defeated, even from the outset. Granted Moss has to gel with whatever QB he is teamed up with, but he's got to be frustrated. Go ahead, call me an enabler. We'll see near the mid-way point of the season if Randy is asking for an out or if he is leading the team.
It's only 3 games. It sucks that the Pats got the snot beat out of them, but they have got to build off of it.
Posted Saturday August 23, 2008, About: Manny: I wasn't comfortable in Boston
I'll probably get chewed up and spit out for this, but it's too bad Manny had to go out like this. He was one of the most feared hitters the Sox have had in quite some time, and probably for quite some time to come (sorry Papi). I think his production is missed.
However, with him acting like such an arse near the end, how can you not tick people off, especially those who payed for him to live in at the top of the Whatever in the middle of Boston? And for him to make such stupid statements about not being comfortable? Whatever. I guess Hollyweird is just the right fit for him right now, at least until the money comes calling next year.
Posted Thursday August 14, 2008, About: Personal attacks bother Rodgers
Gotta agree with Cheesedaddy. It's not Rodger's fault. He's handled himself pretty well through all the drama that Favre and the Packers created. He didn't tell Favre to go, he didn't cut the deal with Favre and the Pack. He's just a by-product.
Of course you need thick skin as an athlete, but why wouldn't someone with some sort of morals be upset if kids were swearing at you? Obviously, their parents don't care. Now thats class.
Posted Saturday August 09, 2008, About: Sources: Manny wants to be a Yankee
Reason #672 why Sox fans, like myself, are happy he went. Miss the production, but Cripes, he was getting annoying.
Imagine his reception back at Fenway? And you thought Damon's first time back was bad...
Posted Friday August 08, 2008, About: MLB investigating Manny's exit
If this proves to be true, it just shows you how classless and greedy Manny and Borazz really are. Would Hall of Famers like Williams, DiMaggio, etc have done something like this? I really did like Manny when he was with the Sox, put to pull stuff like that on your employer put a bad taste in my mouth.
They should open up a Stupidty wing in Cooperstown, with the likes of Barry, Roidger, Manny, and McGwire.
Will the Sox miss his bat come September and October? Who knows, but I'd like to think they wouldn't. Will they miss his stupid ****? Absolutely not.
Anyway, enough of Manny and Favre already.
Posted Thursday August 07, 2008, About: Jets could owe Packers a No. 1 pick
I'm a Pats fan and I'm not worried in the slightest. The Jets are .500, at best, with Brett "I'm All About Winning" Favre.
He and Manny "I Love LA" Ramirez should become friends. Granted, Manny's bat has caught fire out in LA, but the Dodgers still suck. Same thing's gonna happen in NY. Favre will probably throw the lights out, but he sure won't be taking the Jets to the Promised Land.
Favre has made an absolute mockery of his career, and people are sick of it being shoved down their throats. But it's not going to end, now that he's in a Jets uniform. It's probably just going to get worse, with pictures of him out on the town, hanging out with other celebutards in NYC.
Excuse me while I go barf.
Posted Monday August 04, 2008, About: Will Manny cut hair for Torre?
Have fun, Joe. Manny already has the upper hand.
You'll love his production at the plate, but beyond that, it'll be the Manny Sideshow Act, and now that he's in Hollyweird, it's in full force.
Posted Sunday July 20, 2008, About: Red Sox to weigh Teixeira move
The Sox don't need Tex. RunItUp is right; they need a new shortstop, and, I hate to say it, a good-hitting catcher.
I'm torn on the Manny issue. Gotta love his production, but his antics are getting old.
I have a friend, Mike, whose cousin works for PepsiCo in NYC. It was his job to go to the airport and greet and coordinate DR players for a group photo for Pepsi, right before the World Baseball Classic, which was around one of those times Manny was in the throes of, "I'm leaving Boston," or," I want to be traded," or, "I'm not talking about it."
Anyway, Mike's cousin started talking to Manny about it, and Manny replied, in broken English, "I really have not idea what's going on. I just let my agent deal with it." After the day with the players, Mike's cousin came away with the impression that Manny truly was a numb skull.
Go Papi, leading the Sea Dogs to victory!
Posted Tuesday May 27, 2008, About: Long snapper attracts interest
Why did I go out and earn my Master's? I should have just learned to spiral a football while bending over.
Posted Tuesday May 27, 2008, About: Ortiz to Selig: Don't ruin the sport
I just have one question. Why is human eror okay? I also officiate high school games (football, basketball, and girl's softball). In basketball there is a thing called a correctable error, meaning if an error was committed by a socrekeeper or an official, it can be corrected. Why not get it right if you can?

Call it the baseball "purist" in me. I just like it that the game doesn't have to be stopped to check on a "missed" call. Replays kind of kill it for me. Same with football. When a coach wants a call to be reviewed, I start bellyaching. It just stops momentum.
Just a personal thing.
Posted Tuesday May 27, 2008, About: Ortiz to Selig: Don't ruin the sport
I tell you what, though, if I just paid $150-$200 dollars off of StubHub for tix for my wife and I to sit in the bleachers at Fenway, I sure as hell don't want a game to be done in an hour and a half. I want my money's worth.
How do you speed the game up, though? Expand the strike zone? I coach high school baseball, and I'll be honest, the umps that have a tight strike zone really slow things down. It frustrates pitchers who are hitting the corners but not getting the calls.
Tough call. But please, no instant replay. I think it would take the human error factor out of it, and make it a more sterilized game. Just play ball.
Posted Wednesday May 14, 2008, About: Steinbrenner: Time to earn money
Once a Steinbrenner, always a Steinbrenner.
I hate the Yanks, but just let 'em play ball without some big galoot yelling at them.
How did he "make" his money, anyway? The word "Dad" comes to mind.
Posted Friday May 09, 2008, About: Indians ticked off at Joba's histrionics
I can't stand McCarver. He's the worst.
I remember during last season's ALCS, he wouldn't shut up about Manny's "home run" being the longest single he's ever seen, why in the world wasn't Manny sprinting out of the box, on and on and on. It's a good thing I like my TV; I was about to smash it.
Yes, Manny does need to hustle more out of the box, but McCarver's diarrhea of the mouth was driving me insane.
Posted Friday May 09, 2008, About: Indians ticked off at Joba's histrionics
If a pitcher wants to do his thing, so be it.
But it seems like Joba is an overgrown kid. He's overprotected, doted on, and when he does something good, he goes nuts.
Ah, whatever. He's the one making millions, not me.
Posted Monday April 28, 2008, About: Report: Clemens had affair with singer
What was the name of her (one) hit song? "Guys do it all the time"? I wonder if Rocket was the inspiration for that song.
I can imagine the conversation...
(15 y.o. Mindy) "Wow Roger! You told your wife you were going to work out at the gym, but you come over here instead? That's great, but I still don't know how you're getting so big even though you're seeing me instead of lifting."
(Rocket) "No biggie. Guys do it all the time."

Posted Wednesday March 19, 2008, About: Hitch in Red Sox Japan trip
We all know that athletes are overpaid. I've got bigger fish to fry, rather than bellyaching about athletes' pay.
The coaches have a legit beef. Imagine if you were to go on a business trip, and you were administration/managerial. However, everyone that worked under you got paid, but you didn't. Wouldn't you be upset?
It's a matter of principle, no matter if you are a Red Sox fan or not a Red Sox fan. If MLB is going to pay the players, the coaches should get compensated.
And yes, the appearance for the troops should be out of goodwill.
