Who doesn’t like tk?

..so allow me to present Tim Lincecum and Matt Cain as two sweet, sweet bottles of warming hooch.

tk is awesome, though her Tomko obsession disturbs me.

Please don’t insult the real TK like that

"he walked 18; new league record! Struck out 18, another new league record! He also hit the sportswriter, the PA announcer, the bull mascot twice..."

Kawakami needs a new nickname on here.

ICSTATK?

The bases were drunk, and I painted the black with my best yakker. But blue squeezed me, and I went full. I came back with my heater, but the stick flares one the other way and the chalk flies for two bases. Three earnies! Next thing I know, skipper hooks me and I'm sipping suds with the clubby.

How about "Dumbfuck"?

Attention Whore?

The Denker bus is now bound for San Diego. Those who were passengers on it are now angrily stranded at a gas station in Modesto, CA. Not much about baseball here .

Sorry buddy but I think you really stepped in it with your title.

and now that I've read the article...

his point is kind of irrelevant. Sabes is pissed because the media made it look like the Giants were poised to sign CC when they apparently didn’t even contact him. I’d be a little mad too. Now all of the casual Giants fans are saying shit like “Why couldn’t we reel in CC?!?!?” when we never had any intention to, and it’s really the writers’ faults for getting their hopes up. And it’s not like the fans get that; they just blame it on Sabes. Sabes is totally right to be mad, IMO.

Yeah

The way I see it, Sabes is one of the only people to know if the writers here are full of shit.

They are.

He said so.

He was a bit tactless, but if you’re getting on Sabes for doing his job badly, then the sportswriters deserve it just as bad.

How are the sportwriters doing their job badly?

They hear rumors, they report the rumors. If Sabean doesn’t like the rumors, because they are plants from agents or whatever other reason, then he should head them off by being more open with the press. He can’t play his cards close the vest and then get all indignant when the press misjudges his hand.

Of course, he should be playing his cards close the vest. and the press should be forced to print often fallacious rumor, and Sabean should know this and keep his mouth shut. This is the business he has chosen, deal with it.

Does Sabean realize that he needs people talking about the Giants? I guess not

Ahh, self-important douchebaggery. Kawa never disappoints.
