SBG Gets Violently Ill
Posted by SBG on Friday, May 27th, 2005 at 7:10 pm
I'm sitting on the couch watching the Twins game and I flip over to ESPN between innings. Of course, they are showing the Red Sox/Yankees game. Tonight's Yankee pitcher is new to the team. ESPN showed a replay of said pitcher walking off the mound after the previous inning and Captain October came up and patted him on the back.
Rick Sutcliffe praised Jeter's leadership, saying that that pat on the back shows great leadership and shows how Jeter can bring a player into the fold. The pitcher in question? RANDY F*****G JOHNSON. Like Randy Johnson needs Derek Jeter to lead him. SBG immediately started vomiting his freshly eaten burrito.
When I regained my strength, I flipped it back to the Twins game and resolved not to complain about Dick Bremer for at least a month.

hot damn are we finally going to make-up a game on the bitch-soxs?

Nice game by the Twins tonight. Got out early and never let them have a chance. Most of the bullpen gets a rest.
I said a month ago that we'd have the Chisux reeled in by Memorial Day. Well maybe not by then, but we'll be okay.
Was it a Chipotle burrito on one of those "fine dining" outings you were asking us about?
Correctamundo, CC. We had it takeout.
It's amazing Jeter can even manage to play baseball, what with some announcer humping his leg every night.
Yeah, I'm sure the guy with 5 Cy Youngs really needed the Yankee captain to help him feel like he belongs. Hell, in postseason play, Randy Johnson is 5-0 with a 1.65 ERA against the Yankees. He owns those guys. Jeter should be patting him on the back to thank him for not engineering his way to the Red Sox.
I dunno about you, but that catch Jeter made over Robinson Cano had no business being the top play the other day on Sportscenter. Not only did Jeter take a ball that Cano had tracked the whole way, he put both of them in a potentially dangerous situation. Everything turned out OK, but things could have very easily happened very differently. Jeter could have kneed Cano in the head, or landed on his knee, anyone one of a number of things that could have put Cano on the DL or ended his career. Cano was in a very vulnerable position having laid out for the ball and Jeter endangered them both with is selfish, reckless play. The announcers said Jeter was making a great play on a difficult ball, but all I saw was a man wildly puting people in harm's way for personal glory.
