Title: Spring! Baseball! Yee-Haw! Post by jon019 on Mar 18th, 2010 at 12:21am
Best time of the year....any ball team you care to mention has got a chance...least that's what their fans think...it's called hope...and a man can't live without that...
I am reminded of a particularly loathed or loved baseball man...who had a way with a quote...Leo Durocher. Three of my favorites: Re Jackie Robinson: "I don't care if the guy is yellow or black, or if he has stripes like a f*****g zebra. I'm the manager of this team and I say he plays." Re a Willie Mays home run: "I've never seen a f******g ball leave a f*****g ballpark so f*****g fast in my f*****g life." And the most famous...though inaccurate: "Nice guys finish last" What he actually said, to a sportswriter, in spring training, in reference to the Giants across the field... was something like this. "(They are) nice guys (but they are gonna) finish last." Never let it be said that the truth gets in the way of a good story or a good quote..... Go M's.... Best, Jon |
