one of Oakland's top prospects, is quitting baseball to join the priesthood.

When asked for his reason, Desme stated "I've been thinking about baseball so hard for so long, my ability to have an orgasm is basically shot."

They screwed up a couple of the details, but I really wasn't expecting The Nick Adenhart Story to be screen-ready so quick.

The treatment is "not playing for the A's."

Ouch, Dash. Ouch.

As an A's (and Tigers) fan, I can only blame myself.

The Indians suck at sucking. Winning record since the fire sale, because you know how important finishing 4th is!

In reply to Why Your Stadium Sucks: Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum
Why it DOESN'T suck:


* I saw Johnny Damon knocked cold in a collision in the outfield there. When he was with the Red Sox.

* I was there at the Texas Rangers Bullpen Chair-Throwing Incident.

* The Texas Rangers Bullpen Chair-Throwing Incident was the least-odd thing that happened in that game, including: runner scored by balk, runner scored by HBP, runner scored by walk.

* I was there when Jeremy Giambi should have slid. (fuck)

* An opposing-team outfielder has been struck by a cell phone thrown from the stands. Twice.

* The women in the stands have longer criminal records than the men.

Tupac had to choose between Oakland Coliseum & the Thunderdome for the "Californa Love" video. He chose to postpone death, you know, for a little while. Reply
