GASHWOUND Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Good article by A's closer Huston Street. Fans seem to think the players are part machine out there and when they look lethargic or maybe don't look so good they can't seem to fathom on how that player is feeling and jump all over that player. Why the heck wasn't he running out that ball??? Why the f*** does Hermy looks so flat??? and on and on. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/columns/stor...ston&id=2096414 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 (edited) What I don't understand is why Huston Street is a goddamn baseball analyst now? Did he suck at his former job? Is he a know-nothing s***head? Does he not know the names of half of his team? Edited June 29, 2005 by Milkman delivers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the point is? We're talkin within the season..What is the use of a player getting hit by a 95 MPH pitch 2 times a week or fouling a pitch off you shin 3 times a week, running into wall at 20 MPH and so on in May or June.. I guess when a player fouls a pitch off the shin this month he could say, we..at least I have 4 months off at the end of the year.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless the bone is fractured, he should take the pain xylocaine injection to kill the pain take maybe a day off and get back out there. Short of major injury, a major league player doesn't need much time off. By the way the 4-6 month crack was only half serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I'm not in pro sports (besides the no talent thing of course). I've just spent enough time in pro sports locker rooms dealing with these knuckleheads. For better or worse some of them just drove me nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
