I’ve noticed that there have been some absolutely mind-numbing comments on HJE, and that not all of them were written by me. Most of the truly hilarious ones are written on long-forgotten B126 entries, usually accusing me of being jealous of Doug Dascenzo. Of course I’m jealous of every Major League Baseball player. They played Major League Baseball for a living, while I sit behind a desk every day, trying not to cry. That doesn’t make them not terrible at playing baseball, and it doesn’t make them any less annoying to me, though. But that’s neither here nor there. I’ve decided to keep track of the really hilarious or (more likely) really pathetic ones, and to give them their own honor of winning Skip’s Comment of the Week.





This week, I couldn’t decide which of The Bull’s comments was the worst, so I’ll just post two of my favorites and let you decide.

The one where he calls Huey a cocksucker and makes a “teenagers with HIV” joke?

I am with Bill Madlock on this one. What the fuck is with all the Santo hate? I have read some crap in my day but this bullshit takes the first place gold medal in douchery. In the 25 years I have been a Cub fan I have never been more embarrassed by my fellow fans. Santo is a whiner? Really? I have watched us go from the best fans in baseball to a bunch of crybaby fans who dont seem to understand the game. We boo our own players? There are slumps in baseball, some longer than others. Huh, booing your own always makes for a positive atmosphere. I dont know if any of you have ever taken in a game in Cincy but we are getting close to becoming exactly like those pathetic fucks. We make the playoffs only to have the fans at the game behave like a bunch of nervous teenagers getting ready for their first HIV test. The ENTIRE national media made fun of the crowds at games 1 and 2 against the Dodgers. Again, it was disgusting.

And now we have stopped low enough to drag our beloved Ronnie through the mud, dislike his calling of the games, I can understand that if thats your opinion, he does get down and take the loses to heart, I personally view it as how much he loves this team no matter how shitty we play. But to drag him through the mud and talk about his impending death, especially with a man that has battled diabetes is just downright trash and you sir should never ever write another piece word ever! I have an idea MikeD (I assume the D stands for Douchebag) why dont you and all the other negative Cub fans go to the South side and join all the other Cub haters that live in self pitty because of their hatred for the Cubs, cheering everytime the Cubs score comes up and the Cubs are losing. Maybe even smoke you some MORE crack while your there. Fuck you you cocksucker

Or the one where he tells me that I don’t know what the fuck I’m talking about and that I suck because I think it’s ridiculous for a grown man to wear a Ryan Theriot jersey?

And what is wrong with buying jerseys of playersa on the team? I am pretty sure that it means you are a real fan who actually watches the team and grows fond of certain players like The Riot who people appreciate his hard nose style of play. Sorry, I didnt realize that we are all supposed to wear D. Lee and Ramirez jerseys. 1,2,4,5,7,9,10,11 and 12 were legit but 3,6 and 8 pretty much tell me that you dont know what the fuck you are talking about. Looks like your the one that sucks.

Congratulations, The Bull! You are a “real fan” and our very first Skip’s Comment of the Week champion!
