  4. Oh lordy Maria, Griffey back? He broke my heart (what passes for it anyway) when he dumped us to chase manly World Series jewelry. But attention hounds with graying pubes are some of my favorite people, so that makes me love him again now that I think about it for half a sec.

    That half sec is my heaviest sport pondering since the Nadal hot-or-not puzzle.

  6. Pretty interesting to see all the stimulus money listed in full, like that. How does anyone even fathom what the affect of all that money will be?

  8. The problem with Griffey is that he is EXACTLY the kind of player we used to sign to terrible, terrible contracts. He’s Richie Sexson, only even further gone. Fortunately, Zduriencik is a smart man, and Griffey’s only going to get one year for small money. That’s good. He’s got a little bat left, maybe.

    What he doesn’t have left is legs. Ken Griffey, Jr. is now a serious contender for the title of “worst defensive outfielder of all time”. He’s TWICE as bad as Raul was, and Raul was mind-bogglingly horrible. We have a great defensive outfield in place now, one that’s going to surprise a lot of people, and make our pitchers look good for a change. Griffey MUST NOT be allowed to set foot on the grass. He’s the DH, period, and only against righties. He hits lefties worse than Willie Bloomquist.

    Do that, and maybe, MAYBE, he can hold it together for another year. Just as likely, though, is the sad sight of 30,000 older fans having their childhood memories erased and overwritten by this shell of a former player.

  9. if he plays DH, hits .275, jacks 30 homers, and fills the stands – then yes, it will be ok to sign his decrepit narcissistic broken down ass.

    It’s only a given if you feel compelled to go out a shit another $800 BILLION down the crapper.

  14. When you’re falling through empty space with a bag full of gold, you don’t hold on to it. You empty that bag and you do your best to pretend it’s a parachute.

  16. When you were young and on your own
    How did it feel to be alone?
    I was always thinking of games that I was playing.
    Trying to make the best of my time.

    But only Sulk can break your heart
    Try to be sure right from the start
    Yes only Sulk can break your heart
    What if your world should fall apart?

    I have a friend I’ve never seen
    He hides his head inside a dream
    Someone should call him and see if he can come out.
    Try to lose the down that he’s found.

    And no, I don’t feel like letting it go.

  18. I’m so proud of the Republican patriots who stood together against Obama’s porkulous spending bill. It’s heartening to know there are still patriots in America.

    By the way, this tee shirt says a lot about our socialist in chief.
