I will post again that I am going to fucking kill somebody.

My freaking roommate just interrupted me in the 6th inning of the freaking NATIONAL LEAGUE PLAYOFFS, which happen once a year, which the team that I live and die by hasn’t been in in 8 FRIGGING YEARS! to passive/aggressively and NOT directly, pick at me to let her watch Jerseylicious, which is recordable and able to be recorded or watched in reruns 15 times over the next week.

Then, AFTER I got up and sacrificed this moment that I have been waiting for SINCE 2002, when I expressed it was upsetting to me and defeated the purpose of a live sporting event, she had the audacity to tell me she couldn’t believe I was “coming at her like this” and that she should have clemency because she never interrupts me watching TV…which I don’t ever do anyway.

Really? I’m creating an imposition?

You comment was still derisive. How was it not? And he didn’t screw up the play you were commenting about. And after all that, I still think he’s our best option to play CF right now. I very much so doubt that Aaron Rowand would be an improvement in any way.

Terrible cutoff. McCarver doesn't know what the fuck he is talking about. The ball wouldn't have hit the mound. I wanted to see Buster slap the tag in Oswalt's face.

Huff wasn’ even in a good position to cut the ball off. Normally the cutoff man would have turned sideways to have his momentum falling towards home plate. Huff had to catch the ball, stop and turn his whole body towards the plate. Very bad play and McCarver didn’t have the balls to call out Huff.

Bochy put in the wrong reliever, Ramirez gave him a pitch to hit, Huff fucked up, Posey didn’t block the plate well. All Torres did was, you know, field the ball and throw it just the way he was supposed to.

If I was a secretary that couldn’t alphabetize, I would quickly be looking for a job. An umpire that cannot call the strike zone should similarly be in a different line of work.

the rules

It’s a judgment call. The problem isn’t that a human calls balls and strikes, it’s that MLB and the umps clearly do a weak job getting those humans to do a good job. Most umps are surprisingly good at balls and strikes. Usually when I think ‘@#$%! you were wrong’ after seeing a pitch on TV I check the data and more likely than not, the ump was right. But the last couple nights, I am starting to wonder.

by wcw on Oct 17, 2010 8:32 PM PDT up reply actions  

It’s not about whether or not they deserve to. It’s whether you should wish for them to be fired. That secretary should be fired, but to want him/her to be fired? That ain’t right.

Why is it not right to wish that incompetents find a profession for which they are better suited? Is it the act of firing itself? Would you prefer that I wish his contract were not renewed?

But Jesus Christ, the Giants looked bad tonight. Defensive miscues, first-pitch hacking, the bullpen fucking it up at the worst possible moment, shitty managing (something I thought Bork was doing a nice job of avoiding so far), and a few absolutely terrible plate appearances, particularly from Andres.

I really hope he can put something together on the off-day.

going to a heavier bat in the playoffs then since your argument seems to be not to change anything.

By going to a lighter bat, he was just returning to his older bat weight that he hit with most of the season.

He’d used the heavier bat all season. Last night was the first time all season he used the 33 ounce bat. During the season he used the 35 ounce bat.

For Game #3 against Hamels, I change up the starting lineup:

1) Sanchez
2) Ross
3) Posey
4) Huff
5) Burrell
6) Uribe
7) Sandoval
8) Rowand
9) Cain
Need to get Ross more ABs at the top of the order. At this point, as much as Rowand has been a disappointment, Torres looks bewildered at the plate – perhaps we can catch lightning in a bottle and get something ot of our $13mm. I liked Sandoval’s AB tonight, knew the strike zone and looked more confident tonight. Bottom line, we need to start getting something our of 3-5. Huff, Posey and Burrell made Oswalt look like a HOFer.

He should have about 6 decent to good seasons left he needs 100 wins

to be a sure shot since 16+ wins a season seems unlikely he most likely ends up in the 215-225 range maybe he goes 8 seasons even then he is way behind guys like Blyleven and Mussina who both have only outside shots at the HOF
