I can’t believe there are that many Cub fans who would defend Dusty or refuse to boo him. I actually saw the comment, “I don’t like Dusty, but I respect him”. Wha? Like Dusty gives a shit if we respect him or not. And what fucking players did Dusty bring in exactly? Ramon Martinez. Neifi Perez. Shawn Estes. Guh. What about coaches? Wendell Kim. Chris “DUI” Spier(You picked the wrong NL Central team, Chris. It’s DOWN I-55, not up. You’d have fit right in.) Gary Matthews almost gets a pass just for beign the Sarge, but Gene Clines. Did you know Gene Clines played with Willie Stargell? AND Roberto Clemente? Bet you didn’t. Maybe they didn’t either.

It is an adjective. He forgot to capitalize. That should have read, “He brought us IN players…” Meaning he brought us players from Indiana. Like LaTroy Hawkins. Fuck you, Dusty.

Re: Don’t Boo Dusty

For a guy who only wrote about five sentences (of pure unadulterated crap), Unique nevertheless offered this gem: “He brought us in players…”

Is “in” an adjective? I hope so.

The Cubs are looking for something in Wood’s entrance music. What that is, is hard to define.

I wonder how Carrie Muskat feels that as a beat reporter for MLB.com, she has to deal with e-mails from fans asking questions about where their bricks are going to be located. I would have been tempted to reply with “What the fuck makes you think I know or care, shithead?”

too late, the mets are using that as their 8th inning song crap. like sweet caroline, but somehow just as shitty, even though mets fans are less douchey. ah well.

i think itd be interesting if kerry chose going home (the theme from local hero) by mark knopfler. not a necessarily outstanding choice, but pretty freaking true.

“Instead — let’s stray away from the norm and be the best fans in the world.”

Too late buddy – the moonshine chugging inbreds already have that title reserved. Since we’re not going to be the best, we might as well boo his ass off.

I don’t even think Brendan Fraser would have picked up on that one.

The more I think about it, the more I think Wood’s entrance music should be “Never Gonna Give You Up”.
