PrintI guess I have to cancel my custom jersey order, and go back to my Ryan Langerhans home jersey.
sigh.
The A's released Willy Tavares today.
I'm not quite sure how to feel right now. It's like my world is upside down or something, I mean I knew with Willy T it was like a guaranteed playoff appearance, and now that's just... gone.
We'll miss you, Willy. You were always my favorite Athletic.
(Just kidding. Dude was *awful* last year. Thanks for Rosales, though!)

Not nearly as much as I would've needed had Willy actually appeared in a game for the A's
Hey Al, just go away, baby.
No that's anger management
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

Like in Rummey, where if you want a certain card that's in the pile
you gotta pick up all the junk it’s buried under, and hope you can discard the junk before it comes back to bite you.
Stewart: "What really needs to be clear is it wouldn't have mattered if there was an earthquake or not. We were going to beat the Giants.
So is he now Won'ty Tavaras?

Now Willy Tavar somebody else?
There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
Tavares will be the 4th or 5th highest paid player on the team this year
Its like we paid money so he can be bad for another team.
Why didnt we do this with Crosby???
because nobody would trade anything of value
for Crosby + cash

Did he get a press conference welcoming him to the A's?
Pretty slack if he didn’t.
Is this the real life-
Is this just fantasy-
Caught in a landslide-
No escape from reality-
best part of this post
mikev misspelled Taveras as the 1970s disco-funk band Tavares.

Hey, I just bought the team from Lew Wolff... who wants to play third?
My bad. he wasn't with the team long enough for me to spell his name right.
They call their best player "Kung Fu Panda" and they complain that people aren’t taking them or the game seriously enough? -Nick
That's how I feel about Jeff Weever.
