I can't stand Zito

[Toolrulzz]

Can't forget jdb. That old fuck was as crazy as they came. His only real friend on the ESPN boards was FSS, who defended that old coot til the end. Gotta admire FSS's loyalty, but it was misplaced.

When I left the ESPN boards, I went to runboard, but I couldn't abide that place long because it was run by idiots. I tried to make it work on the Mule and HF forum, but too many morons spoiled it. BTW, that is where most of us came into contact with 9$ for the first time. I never had problems with the guy, but then again, I wasn't really regular enough to become a target.

This place is paradise. Let's hope it never gets overrun by the Walking Dead from ESPN and runboard.

jdb is still there. And he's still as crazy as ever. Runboard still has some really good posters left but it seems to be a dying board. This place has been awesome since I migrated over. I think it was Filo that invited me. Since I never thanked you for it, thanks Filo.

No worries rulz! Glad you like it here.

Also repped as a lifetime achievement award and on General Principle.

I didn't think so. I was a lurker over there since 2001 and the name didn't ring a bell. Oh well, to each their own right?

I don't recall the name either. Then again, I make up a LOT of alts....

:arg:

And by "you like it" Filo means "to have your dues."

Speaking of bad contracts.....

look at what the Yankees owe Alex Rodriguez

2012:$29M
2013:$28M
2014:$25M
2015:$21M
2016:$20M
2017:$20M
and $30M in other incentives.

That's $143M remaining in base salary - potentially going to $173M if he breaks Bonds homerun record. He's 36 now and 37 in July. If his production continues to decline, it's going to be fun watching the carnage.

The one guy I respected was LLDoyle. He had a brought a lot of NY/SF Giants history to the table.

Merciless was right..before PWD, there was (still is, perhaps?) Castcore

LLDoyle ruled the board back in the day. Balzac and Psycho made the board really literate, quoting obscure philosophers from time to time to back up baseball quotes. There was good banter back then, before the dark times. This board approaches that level from time to time.

Castcore = Cazic = sack of useless shit.

Hate that fucking whiner.

Saw this in the Merc, thought this was the best thread for it.

Zito's at bat

Ouch.....what a strange career it's been for pAyROD.

I think you have Psycho confused with someone else. That dude was batshit crazy. I agree that Balzac was very literate, very sharp-witted and quite funny. But I met Psycho once at a ballgame - same day I met DFaninWis (RIP, friend) - and Psycho was dumber than a pile of bricks.

I miss Hecklar. That dude just dropped off the face of the Earth after he moved to Pennsylvania. He and his wife are good people. Seriously good.

Freaking hilarious!

Freaking hilarious!

I'd rep you 1000 times for this if I could.

Let's not start sucking each others dicks just yet on Zito though. If I recall he started 2010 like 4-0 with a stellar ERA and we were trying to figure out who'd get the Cy that year him or Timmy.

We got something better of course but still.

And I realize we're not giving him the Cy for this year yet either. Just keeping it real.

 

[calsnowskier]

By the end of the year, stories will be told about how Zito struck out Nick Lowery 3 times in this game...

Only because Nick wanted to see what it felt like...

 

[guitarmy21b]

Hey guys, Zito is available in my league. Is he worth picking up or is he gonna start sucking again?
