And why can’t it be that Lincecum wants to succeed? Does he need outside motivation?

What a giant pile of crap. Why should an athlete hate every team that didn’t draft him? Why does he have to dwell on his size all the time? Just let him effin’ play. Articles that try to manufacture drama where there is none make me say “whatever”. /urban

No, see, pitchers aren’t paid to put up nice ERAs, they’re paid to WIN GAMES, dammit, and that 0-1 record clearly shows what kind of season Timmy’s in for.

Possible uses for your Steven Johnson: 5th starter, long reliever, batboy, go-fer, food taster. Just keep him on the roster!

I actually feel a little more calm and secure now that all the analysts are freaking out. If those know-nothings are concerned logic tells me everything will likely be ok – science, etc.

The best part is actually the end of the article, where Passan’s new motivation for Lincecum is apparently calling him a dirty hippie. I like the idea of Lincecum working out in the weight room, working on his curveball, the whole time thinking, “Passan thinks I’m a hippy, huh? Well how would a third Cy Young shut his ass up? Mother-fucker!”

There is just something wrong with Jeff Passan. I mean, really. Like, as in, he constantly writes nothing but nonsense. Not just about Lincecum. I’ve seen some other articles he’s written for Yahoo! and they just … it’s like, untrustworthy narrator.

I note that in this particular column he manages to not mention Lincecum being sickantired of this line of questioning, as reported by Baggarly and I believe Schulman, and this leads me to believe it was Passan who asked the question that pissed Timmy off. Thus leading to this passive-defensive piece of ballsless shitsucking.

This is such a stupid fucking analogy.
