Ouch

by rodinuk on Jan 27, 2009 11:43 AM CST

From a Doug Glanville article in the NY Times:

"In my first year of free agency (six years into my major-league march) I preferred a place where I would have the opportunity to play the most. So I headed to Texas. After I got that out of my system, two seasons later, I went to where I thought I had the best chance to win: the New York Yankees."

But, but, but...crap I got nothin'.

Full article is just a 'human-interest' musing, but it's here if you want to read it:

That is fine

If Sheets signs with the Rangers because of that that is fine because I think the Rangers will be right there in a few years contending for a division title.

Sheets or bust

Here's the ouch

Jim Rice was a hitting machine, driving in runs like he was some sort of taxi service.

Not a burn

But it’s an ouch because the truth hurts, and just another reminder of how bad this franchise has been on the whole.

He sucked anyway, who gives a shit.

mormons stole me and held me against my will with Oklahoma beer and 12+ hour work days.

In reference to how good the Steelers have been in their history: "No one is even close to them."- Steal Home

doug glanville

very quoteable person

Scout: He was a first-round pick right? Got a huge bonus?
KG: Oh yeah.
Scout: Well, he spent a lot of it on milkshakes.

And if Glanville continues to suck

he’ll experience a new feeling…getting traded at the deadline for a real player
