That's because the other stat threads have naturally regressed

Win Probability Added
It’s a measure of how much a hitter or pitcher contributes to winning. A negative WPA means the player did badly. For example, Breslow tonight had WPA = -.223.

He's been pitching an awful lot
You can’t “blame” Geren for wanting to go to him, but this is why fans have to embrace using Wuertz, Blevins, Ross, etc. even when it’s scary to do so.
Honestly, Geren is starting to manage like he’s reading AN game threads and that’s not a good thing.

It's the fans that make the game fun. -- Rickey Henderson, July 26, 2009.
this call is definitely the greatest in the history of all talk radio
First, a rant against Bob Feller (who definitely IS one of the all time bastards in any sport and a disgusting racist and militaristic idiot, but also maybe the greatest power pitcher after Walter Johnson in MLB history) where it seemed as if the guy’s head would explode with rage and where he said he wouldn’t piss on the guy if he was on fire. and then, CT asks, what else you got? And the guy sighs and says in a resigned, depressed melancholic sighing voice,
:“We need a power hitter.”
Hello, I'm Vince Cotroneo for the Marmaduke B. Mushmouth School of Public Speaking...
I imagine that during the first part of the call
he looked something like this:
will crosby spread his legs so far apart at bat that the games will have to be rated nc-17 -- emperor nobody
if Robert Buan had taken this call
he would have let the mic go dead and just curled up, trembling from head to toe, in the fetal position and the men in the white coats would have been summoned.

well I meant I need to drink to jig, but justify it however you need. You are in a safe place.

i thought a jigger was a little more than a splash

how do you convert that into light beer?
Oh, and while I was out my friend knocked over and shattered a bottle of red wine. I thought it was funny because he’s AA and I was buying beer.

no, but it was only 6.99.

tap is extra.

Do you accept Paypal?
Or a jig in return?

I prefer paypal, unless you can bring the sexy back to a jig.

Hmm.
And if I can do neither the sexy nor the jig?

All of us can only aspire to reach such a pinnacle of posting.
I’ve still got some 30,000 posts to go. And at his posting quality, it’d take me twice as long.

too many to catch up

then stick a twenty in my paypal's ... account.

The word "paypal" sounds a lot dirtier all of a sudden.

I almost forgot. While I was at the store I saw a guy wearing an A's shirt. I practically ran to catch up to him
and said “that was a tough loss, in extra innings” He looked at me blankly so I pointed to my A’s shirt. Then he understood and told me his friend gave him the shirt. I felt like an idiot. But also sad for the A’s.

be caeful of that with caps
a lot of those guys are gangsters
"The ego, the super-ego, and the Ed" - dannycakes
thanks for the warning. But while there are gangs in the area I live in a pretty rural part. That's why
I chase down fellow A’s fans- often to my embarrassment. There aren’t too many of us here. (here being the foothills of the Sierra mountains.)
...being a role model I probably wouldn't recommend eating dirt. But at the same time, I'm not trying to be a role model. I'm just trying to eat some dirt.
Oh wow, that's far.
But yeah, I’ve run into more than enough people who wear A’s gear “because they like the colors”. It’s sad, really.

I know some A's fans hate this, but the silver and black display is for real up here. I sport those colors as well.

So THAT explains why we're never on ESPN!

I seriously had no idea. But I guess I should since there's been numerous times I've approached strangers
in public because they’re sporting A’s gear and I’ve gotten the same blank stare and resulting embarrassment.
I’m kind of A’s fan nuisance at this point.
...being a role model I probably wouldn't recommend eating dirt. But at the same time, I'm not trying to be a role model. I'm just trying to eat some dirt.
Seeing a Yankees hat could mean a diehard fan, a casual fan, or someone who just likes the city and knows nothing about baseball.
I’m used to that. But seeing the A’s in the same manner never gets comfortable. It’s unnerving.

The real question is what in the heck are we doing up at 1:30 in the morning trying to figure out why people do what they do...LOL
There is no A in OFFENSE!!
it's been established I have no life.

In fact I went out to get a gift for my cat's birthday tomorrow. I love him so I don't care what anyone says.

aww, that means a lot.

it does not compute.

It is not just A's fans trust me..
My friend is from Chicago and he is a huge White Sox fan and whenever he sees someone here wearing a Sox cap he always goes up to them to say something and half the time they have no idea what he is talking about and they arent even fans they just got the hat becuase they thought it was cool…..Most of the time they do not even realize that they are wearing a Sox cap…I ssupect the same is true for people wearing A’s stuff, even if it is hard for fans like us to understand..
There is no A in OFFENSE!!
I feel for your friend. But it's even worse living in CA and getting that response over CA teams.
