Will call their teammates based on something with their last name. McGwire was called Mac by a lot of teammates, I’m sure.

Probably just one of those things that happened organically. When a nickname is just derived from the actual name, there’s usually not too much to it.

Why doesn't the bay area media call out Geren and Beane?

I mean Geren has no clue when to take out a pitcher who is struggling and usually waits for far too long and by that time the damage is done. As for Beane why doesn’t get called out for not firing Geren? It’s obvious that Geren has no clue what he’s doing out there, so why the hell is Geren stll with the A’s?

Come on Ocab.

My favorite team is a fucking embarrassment to all true A's fans and they make me sick to my stomach on an almost daily fucking basis. But being a true fan, I will ride this pathetic bunch of losers out and hope that they get better in 2010

The Slegna are a damn pesky team

If we were half as resilient as they are, I would feel like we have a chance to win this game. Too bad we don’t…

I have my asshole, Drunk, obnoxious, Yankee Fan, roots for slegnA as well, roommate

spouting off in the background.

When it was 3-0 A’s he was yelling, here come the Yankees. Your pitcher is going to hit a wall and then Mazarro did the exact thing.

About 10 minutes ago he said, "It’s only 6-3 still, I thought my Yankees would have added on against such a sub-standard team like the A’s.

On top of this he is rooting for the slegnA.

If it was legal to arrange his face, I would put his nose thru the back of his head.

My favorite team is a fucking embarrassment to all true A's fans and they make me sick to my stomach on an almost daily fucking basis. But being a true fan, I will ride this pathetic bunch of losers out and hope that they get better in 2010

Would agree with the one guy who was talking about baseball that Garen may have established a new low for a manager. Very hard to believe he still has a job.
