  1. lol who gives a hoot about ST. I'm watching the way they're performing NOW, because THESE are the games that count. Trout, Pujols, Cron, and the ball didn't get passed the green on the infield. Yikes!
  2. lol there's your 3-4-5 folks! It's gonna be a loooooong season.
  3. It f**king infuriates me watching Trout taking that first pitch strike to swing at that garbage. What the hell Trout.
  4. lol @ Cron there to protect Pujols. I'd walk Pujols every time... I gotta say, potentially, this is one of the weakest looking Angels teams I've seen in a while.
  5. lol heany with the tissue in his nose...wtf...
  6. HAHA! Sure ya are...they've been playing like this for the past 4 effing seasons.
  7. "Couple men on, Angels do nothing with it..." Where have I heard that time and time again? Hmm....
  8. I might be wrong, but from it looks like Pujols might not have so many leg problems if he lost some weight. I think 30 pounds would make a tremendous difference. We really need his glove at 1st. I don't trust Cron for anything. I also see him choking in the playoffs if we do make it.
  9. From what I've heard, there was no reason they needed to go to Apple in the first place. Eventually, someone was going to be able to get into it without their help. Buncha hooplah about nothing, but I am kinda sorta glad Apple didn't give in. They don't have to. Especially if it was going to infringe on every other users privacy.
  10. For a player like Pujols who continues to work his tail off, I really have all the confidence in the world that he can be a real presence in the club. It'd be nice for him to be the player we all know he can be, but I really think it comes down to what's going on in his head. Less homers, less pulling, more going with the ball, more doubles. He's got a great eye, he just needs to give up on jacking one every time. I would rather see a .310 Pujols, than a 30 homer Pujols.
  11. That wasn't the issue. The issue was he asked them to take it down, and they refused. Then a judge told them to take it down, and they refused. They then added insult to injury by publicly berating him and the judge by basically saying they could keep any type of video deemed "newsworthy" up on their site because the Constitution guaranteed them the right. During his deposition, this conversation was recorded: "Q. Well, can you imagine a situation where a celebrity sex tape would not be newsworthy? A. If they were a child. Q. Under what age? A. Four." Jurors also added after their decision, it wouldn't have mattered if he knew he was being filmed, the judgement would not have changed. This guy and anyone I've ever seen speaking for the company, have been gigantic pieces of sh*t since the websites inception. They deserve everything they've gotten.
  12. I never liked Axl. Never thought his singing was that great either. GnR has like, only 1 or 2 songs I can even stand. Doesn't deserve to sing with AC/DC at all.
  13. I don't get it. Have some people on here never had attractive women pick up the soda/beer to let you sip, then feed you popcorn, sourpatch kids or hot tamales at a movie and/or sporting event? I'll tell you one thing, mine were a lot hotter and probably kinkier than Cameron Diaz...
  14. I can't decide if I'd rather have him take the Home Run record, or let Bonds keep it. Either way,
  15. From what I've read, apparently him getting awarded $115 Mill is a little deceiving. After paying for lawyers and all the folks that worked on this case for the past couple years, you can pretty much take half of that away. Down to $57.5 Mill He is also going to be taxed on this money, yup. Take away another half, down to about $28 Mill. And Gawker is going to appeal, so it may be years before Hulk even sees a dime of this money.
  16. Harper is the douchiest douche that ever douched.
  17. "Scioscia hasn’t seen as much of Simmons as he’d like this spring because the team is being cautious with some arm fatigue Simmons has experienced." Oh boy, here we go...
  18. Mike Trout, continuing to personify class and respect in the game of baseball. I hope he's an Angel lifer.
  19. I find this guy to be pretty selfish. Not only does he disregard every other adult who’s a part of the organization by basically giving an ultimatum, he’s willing to throw the entire team under the bus to the media and cause this kind of drama a week before the season starts. Nobody fired him! He walked away on his own, unwilling to compromise! This is his doing, and nobody else’s. He could have dealt with the matter in a much more “adult” way. Perhaps, that is the root of the problem. He doesn’t know how to. He’s apparently ingrained in his beliefs, and hey, that’s great. But don’t expect 24 other guys, and numerous other coaches and management, to just be “okay” with a kid being around ALL the time. As a 20 year old, as a 30 year old, sometimes you just want to be left alone with adults, to talk about, you know, adult stuff. I work with adults, and we talk about, well, adult stuff. And when there’s a kid close by you’re always going to be looking around your shoulder hoping the kids not around, wondering if what you say the kid might repeat, etc. Quite frankly, in an adult environment (such as a MLB field, dugout, clubhouse), it doesn’t allow you to be adults. And that can be very detrimental to an environment where at times there needs to be intense conversations, confrontations, words said to each other, that quite frankly, might be held back because there’s a kids sitting right there. I think a couple unnamed players complained, a couple unnamed coaches complained, and someone had to bring it up to him, and now Kenny Williams is taking it up the wazoo. The players who were cool with it are defending this guy, and the media has taken the question mark and ran with it. To be honest? I can’t imagine being a ballplayer in that kind of environment where I have to hold back or watch what I say EVERY DAY. It just doesn't seem productive or realistic. Especially when some of the best results come out of going at each other for a couple intense minutes to come to a realization that you all agree and you're just coming from different angles. Sometimes when you're encouraging you say vulgar stuff just to pump the guy up, and now you can't because kid. If I played in the MLB, the second I saw this guys kid in the clubhouse I’d be like “What the hell is this twerp doing down here? Why is he on the field during warm ups? This is a professional organization. He's in my way. This kid doesn’t belong here.” Bye .207 Felicia! Impossible for me to give a crying shoulder to millionaire crybaby ballplayers.
