Gretzky's Mullet

JP Ricciardi said this about Adam Dunn on a radio show:

"Maybe we have more information and know the player a little more than the average fan." "He's a lifetime .230-.240 hitter that strikes out a ton and hits home runs.

Did you know the guy doesn't really like baseball that much? Did you know the guy doesn't have a passion to play the game that much? I don't think you'd be very happy if we brought Adam Dunn here...We've done our homework on guys like Adam Dunn and there's a reason why we don't want Adam Dunn."

Dunn responded with:

I don’t know the clown. I don’t know, and you can use the word ‘clown’ if you like.

I’ve seen it, I haven’t heard it. I really don’t care what one guy thinks, to be honest with you. If I’m a G.M., I don’t know that I’d go out of my way to discredit a player -- if I’m a player. He’s obviously won more than me, I guess. Or hasn’t. I know nothing about him.

Riccardi is an idiot, firstly because he he wouldn't be happy if his team acquired Adam Dunn and secondly because for some unknown reason he decided to come out and trash a player for no reason.

Blue Jays fired John Gibbons, Marty Pevey, Ernie Whitt and Gary Denbo.

Cito Gaston will be the manager for the rest of the year.

It's about time, now they just need to fire JP.

I used to lvoe watching him walk out to the mound. He liked like he just wanted to lay down and die.

Not willing to stop after insulting a player from another team for no reason, JP decides to slam a classic Blue Jay after unceremoniously canning him:

Sportsnet.ca spoke to Ricciardi Sunday morning, and he said "People have forgotten the fact that I put Ernie in the big leagues. He got a big league job because of me. I'm the one who pushed him to be on this staff. I don't know what his comments were I just know that Ernie was a big league coach because of me"

Cido???

Nice work by Felix. But then he leaves the game early. He better be okay. I remember at the start of the season the Felix/Bedard combo being a crazy good 1-2 punch. So much for that eh?

And I'm trying to remember who the big Yankee fan is on here. Is it SportCrazy??? Anyways, I have two pairs of tickets for sale (face value) for the M's/Yanks series Sep5-6 weekend. I have something I have to do now that I can't get out of, so I have to sell them.

Anyone interested?? They're really good lower right field bleacher seats. PM if ya want!
