Nothing out there?

Are you serious? You can’t even make up anything? Can’t we get some contrived story on how Nolan Ryan has all the pitchers not at Fall Instructs down at his farm repairing fences and hunting snow monkeys? Anything? I think that should be your new off-season schtick…making up stories and seeing which ones make it onto the interwebs as actual stories

Ok, a serious question for a Monday morning…Over/Under 5 games under .500 before Warsh gets axed (if he’s indeed back next season). What say youse all

What's the rumpus?

MLB Trade Rumors

I don’t know if it has been stated but on there website it says that the Rangers made a BIG offer for Greinke but it was turned down.

I wonder what the offer was?

The original article was from Rosenthal.

Signature! I don't need no stinking signature!!

Time for a bad joke

A cowboy rode into town and stopped at a saloon for a drink. Unfortunately, the locals always had a habit of picking on strangers, which he was. When he finished his drink, he found his horse had been stolen. He went back into the bar, handily flipped his gun into the air, caught it above his head without even looking and fired a shot into the ceiling.

‘Which one of you sidewinders stole my horse?!?!?’ he yelled with surprising forcefulness. No one answered. ‘Alright, I’m gonna have another beer, and if my horse ain’t back outside by the time I finish, I’m gonna do what I dun in Texas! And I don’t like to have to do what I dun in Texas!’ Some of the locals shifted restlessly. The man, true to his word, had another beer, walked outside, and his horse has been returned to the post.

He saddled up and started to ride out of town. The bartender wandered out of the bar and asked, ‘Say partner, before you go… what happened in Texas?’ The cowboy turned back and said, ‘I had to walk home.’

Does anyone want to bitch about Mike Sherman with me...

…and make me feel better that at the very least, someone else is as pissed as I am at Sherman and especially Bill Byrne?

A&M and the Rangers are my favorites. Consequently, they are two of the worst in their sports. I need to move to a foreign country and become a fan of cocaine or something instead of sports. This blows.

Out of empathy

I’d join in with you. But I haven’t the slightest clue who Mike Sherman is, or Bill Byrne.

Mike Sherman = A&M’s head coach; Bill Byrne = A&M’s Athletic Director.

Bill Byrne is famous for firing Frank Solich at Nebraska (terrible move), losing Billy Gillespie by lying about facilities, giving Dennis Franchione a ridiculous contract extension, and hiring Mike Sherman to a 7 year deal.

Yikes

If Byrne is a self styled “commisar”, one would wonder how he was hired at A&M (not that the good ole’ boy network is traditional at A&M, but the notion has merit. I thought A&M put lifetime ties to the school pretty high on their admin and field preferences0. Thx.

They do

…and that is why Sherman was hired. Not because he’s a good coach, but because he “Understands the tradition and culture of Texas A&M.”

Vomit.

I could care less if a head coach told all the fans and alumni to go eff themselves. If he can win 10 games a year, he can tell me to do whatever he wants. I certainly wouldn’t care if he understood or gave a damn about the culture.

Enjoy that POS Byrne!

He set Big Red back a decade…
