He's highballing.  But then again, it is the goddamn Yankees ***spit*** so they might actually pay it.

ARod is suing MLB.

He didn't learn shit from Lance Armstrong.

I wish he'd go fuck himself and die.

He's making a really strong case to come down harder on motherfuckers after him, just so they don't tie up the legal system until they can retire.

Bud Selig said today that he wants to do a farewell tour to say goodbye to fans and cities.

I think he's delusional about his popularity.

Oh, and fuck A-Rod, other players like him, and baseball writers who think people who cheat belong in the hall.

Yeah, but unless you put a pitch clock to force pitchers to throw the ball and keep the batters from calling time out, nothing is going to speed the game considerably.  At least they'll just go the the vid instead of arguing for 5-10 minutes.

The essence of baseball is "that shit will be done when it's fucking done."  Still the only sport that won't let you end a game on a tie, unless the commish is being a douche at the All-Star game.  If there's an earthquake, they will pick up on the exact fucking pitch they left off at after the shaking's done.  The only real way to do it would be to edit out the dead time between pitches.  But you don't see them cutting out the between play action during NFL games, do you?

MLBPA wanted to boot A-Hole-Rod.

When union leaders said the move was not legal, reps continued to push the issue and not one player defended Rodriguez.

Fuck the Yankees.
QUOTE
Tanaka has never thrown a pitch in the major leagues, the Yankees did not hesitate to offer him the fifth-largest contract ever for a pitcher.

Fuck.

QUOTE
Between outfielders Jacoby Ellsbury and Carlos Beltran, catcher Brian McCann and now Tanaka, the Yankees have expended $438 million in an effort to return to dominance. They've committed a total of $471 million this winter.

Them.

Been a rough couple weeks for baseball fans who remember the era from the mid '70s up to the mid '90s.

Last Tuesday, Bob Welch dies.  Former Cy young winner, last pitcher to win 27 games in a season.

Today, Tony Gwynn, one of the greatest hitters ever, died from cancer.
QUOTE
He had a .338 career batting average and never hit below .309 in any full season. Gwynn accumulated 3,141 career hits as a contact hitter.


Since Ted Williams broke the .400 barrier last in '41, the dude who's come closest to repeating that feat ... yup, Tony Gwynn, 1994, fucking .394.  Sure, it was a shortened season.  Still impressive considering the next closest average in recent history would've been George Brett in '80.  

20 seasons played for the same team.  Just goddamn.

Pete's back in the news because Selig's going to retire soon.  I'll just take this opportunity to point out that Pete Rose was banned from baserball for life for gambling, but this dude has no such punishment.
