Hmm ... exagerate much?
He has said the Diamondbacks didn't give him a fair chance last year.
They didn't give him a fair shot last year and there's nothing wrong with saying something like, 'I'm excited about joining the A's because I didn't feel like I got a fair shot last year."

The A's colors are green and gold.

hahaha
I think this one might have been taken out of context.
He could have said something like, "I'm glad Oakland is giving me a better shot at the rotation than Arizona did," or something similar.

Your boys didn't exactly turn out last weekend
Loss at Penn State? WTF?
I think they'll be welcoming you to campus with a new hoops coach...

Hahaha...
PSU was a fluke. Eric Gordon will step up this March (hopefully).
Maybe Bobby Knight will come back...

Bobby Knight's a pud, and nobody should want him around
But, um, Coach Sampson called. Wants to know if you're interested in getting in on the conversation. :)

haha, low blow. IU should have just kept him. Firing him cost them some A+ prospects that now chose to go elsewhere....

I have Spitzer on the brain ...

I wasn't thinking about anything. I'll have to try to do that more often. @('.')@

I don't think we really need to be worried
about "bulletin board material" in spring training...
Even if the D-Backs cream Oakland, who cares?
As long as Eveland isn't pitching on tilt, this is a non-issue.

Eveland's career ERA suggests
he didn't give the Diamondbacks a fair shot.

This was a bit of a Trolling headline....just a bit of sarcasm following the fun had with the Linden story

Yeah, I agree, like "Two A's fans walk into a bar....
...The one A's fan notices the other has a black eye, just like himself.

"Something similar actaully! I was just having dinner with my wife, and what I MEANT to say was, ‘Honey, can you please pass the peas?’ But I slipped up and said "You f%@# b%$#@ you ruined my life!"

no s**t. Very nice results. Hopefully he will be able to sustain that level of play or atleast something close to it for years to come.
