I actually don't think the pun is true
But it’s still funny.
I think Wash preferred Texas. I think he interviewed for both because he would have taken either job, but if he were offered both, he’d take Texas. I think Billy knew that, and that’s why Billy didn’t offer his job to anyone until after they found out if Texas would choose Wash.
Of course that’s all speculation and we’ll never know, but that’s my theory.

in the past year and a half when Geren left a pitcher in one batter too long when EVERYBODY ON THE PLANET knew he should’ve taken him out. I’m guessing it’s around 75-100 already. He does this stupid crap at least once a week. Last week he did it twice and cost them the game.

Angels Style Baseball
Unlike the A’s … the Angles understand that a 3-0 lead is a much, much bigger lead in the 7th inning than a 2-run lead, so they are willing to give up an out and move a guy over into scoring position. On top of that, the Angels actually practice bunting, so the guy actually puts a good one down with 2 strikes. The A’s never would have bunted in that situation. We can debate it all day long, but the Angels like to put the pressure on, on, on, whereas the A’s want to wait for someone to hit a big home run. Seems to me that when the club had Giambi and Tejada, that made good sense. With today’s club, it’s insanity.

isn't it kinda like a no-hitter?
no talky?
HR power is certainly expensive, and it makes things much easier. It’s kind of like owning a car, as opposed to rent/mortgage, which is an absolute necessity; the baseball equivalent is pitching; and, yes, that makes the Rangers homeless overpass trolls. -Monkeyball

Except then who would be pitching?

THAT'S the changeup -
and why I think Ziggy can keep getting lefties out. Beautiful pitch.
I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal

Good thing
Comcast and Fox think it’s a good idea to keep me from seeing that changeup.
I mean, otherwise, I might not have watched the METS AND THE FRICKING ROCKIES TODAY!

I thought he was supposed to suck terribly in Oakland. Doesn’t he have like 8 losses here? He should remember where he is and start blowing the game.

He does have a lot of losses in the Coliseum
But when you pitch in every game, that’s bound to happen (unless your name is Ervan Santana)

I think we chanted "DFA" after that hit. Or maybe it was the one before.
