If he’s top 5 in their system then it speaks to how poor their system is.

Those are mid-range prospects for Oakland to give up Kazmir for. Maybe Billy Beane is a tad overrated.

I hope we see a ton of lawsuits like this the next few years. It reminds me of how DirecTV ran those commercials claiming they have more reliable services than everyone else and had to stop because they couldn’t prove it.

EW posted a cutesy picture of Taylor and showed one of Nicki where she looked angry as hell and it clearly had connotations of the angry, ghetto black woman.

This. So much fucking this.

This is an interesting story. I wish we got more of this instead of articles outing and shaming people in the name of page clicks.

ketchup flavored chips are disgusting, though.

Yeah they would just stand there and take tons of pitches in the old format.

Wow. That’s pretty damn astonishing.

Goddamn, dude.

The Padres tv and radio guys were bad on this. You would think Dick Enberg would be able to actually come with a good call on a nice play. The Pirates broadcast saved it though.

But the things is they don’t want him. It’s not like Hibbert hasn’t screwed them over before, either.

I thought this was about Kanye

Oh and for the record, it was Hibbert who signed that qualifying offer from the Pacers while he had one foot in the door in Portland. He has a right to force Indiana to offer him the max deal, but I don’t blame them for not talking him up after he fucking sucked all year.

Oooooh, I meant dump. But I still don’t really feel bad for Hibbert. If a team doesn’t want you they’re probably going to go to great lengths to get rid of you. It might be crass but in the end they only ended up hurting themselves, right? Why would you want to force yourself in a round hole when you’re a square peg?…

No I didn’t miss it. They didn’t want his slow ass and wanted to play at a faster pace. It wasn’t like he was being monstrously effective when they put out those feelers about benching him. Vogel was asked the question point blank and said yeah, it could happen. If anything they were up front with Roy about what could…

So a team tried all they could to keep a player and they’re all of a sudden low class? Far worse things happen in sports.

The most cowardly part of all this was Pujols challenging Dipoto on scouting reports and Scoscia just not saying anything to defend him during the meeting. He’s so against any advanced stats being part of his team that he won’t even allow scouting reports and cowardly let his players yell at the GM.

In some ways this reads like “man, we’re looking for some white men to beat back the African savages. We may have finally found one.”
