Asked about LaPorta, Shapiro dodged it. Says Dellucci would get 4-5 more games in AAA ideally, but on the other hand, he’s totally locked in right now offensively, stole some bases, etc. No decision has been made.
Says LaPorta is also doing really, really well, and these are the first AAA at-bats he’s ever had, and we’ll definitely get him “up here sometime this season.”
Translation: It’s not LaPorta.

I really am not a huge fan of meat loaf, but I make a pretty mean meat loaf. Considering my bacon indifference, it’s probably hypocritical that my best meat loaf involves bacon patties.

I would agree with this if Mario and others were analyzing their way to disliking Hammy. But they’re not doing that. They just don’t enjoy listening to him. Nothing really to say about that, unless you want to just accuse them of having lousy taste.
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
Nah, I guess I was reacting to what I thought was Mario saying he didn’t like him because he said things like “Pluto is a great beat writer.”

Although, I have to admit, logrolling is pretty standard among media types. If they (we?) starting getting on each other’s cases, it’s just bitch-bitch-bitch all the time, and the audience doesn’t care about them (us?), they care about the Indians.
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
Yeah, but to me there’s a difference between slurping others in the industry and just remaining neutral. Maybe I’m just being naive in expecting honest and individual opinions from him.
by supermarioelia on Apr 29, 2009 9:27 PM EDT up reply actions
It’s really built up over the past year or so. It’s not so much about how he calls the game, as much as the near home run calls are annoying. His call of the action to me is fine.
It’s just the other stuff. His ongoing flip flop on players that seems eerily in line with the organizational message. Do I blame him? No, but I certainly won’t go out of my way to listen to him. Is he better than most other broadcasters? Of course he is. The Jays guys actually put me to sleep. But I’ll stop short of praising him for his good work. He does the job.

Throw some fresh green beans in a little bit of really hot oil in a skillet, for about 90 seconds, add salt to stop the reaction that makes them fade, turn down the heat and throw in some diced garlic. Serve. Delish.

Hadn’t thought about that. That really was the last time we saw him dominate to that extent.
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
Not sure how this relates, but for about six months, I’ve been trying to convince my niece, age 6, that there is something called “mustard cake,” and some people like to have it for their birthday with hot dogs. She insists that it’s not true, and she’s starting to get pissed when I bring it up.
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
That’s hilarious. Kids are fun to mess with.
My dad had my sisters convinced that cars could fly at one point.

I had the sudden memory the other day of my brother Tony telling me that swine flu turns people into… well… swine.
If Cheney were still around, we’d have captured Swine Flu and tortured him by now.
“Where else are you hiding? How many cities?”
“I will never tell.”
“Let me introduce you to Uncle Waterboard.”
“…”
I’ve also been trying to convince the same niece that we’re naming our son “Delicious Sandwich.”
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
A friend of ours just had a boy, and her husband had her convinced until a week before the delivery that they should name him “Vegas.” His name is now “Henry Vegas.” Middle name not nearly as brutal.
Wow, your friend is some kind of douchebag and/or moron.
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
He’s 48. His wife is 38. He has four kids from a previous marriage age 14-24. He’s relatively insane but brilliant.
So, he’s not a douche or a moron. It’s possible he’s just somewhat nuts. You don’t have to be over-the-top.
There’s a 90% chance he grows up to love the name anyway.
Though I look right at home, I still feel like an exile
by Manhattan Tribe Fan on Apr 29, 2009 8:52 PM EDT up reply actions
I guess his acquiescing leaves open the possibility that he’s not a douche.
But, just so we understand each other, naming your kid Vegas is pretty much the definition of being a douchebag, regardless of whether he’s your friend, or a genius, or crazy. Words have meaning, and this is what “douchebag” means.
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Ortiz and Ellsbury are two of the worst batting order placements in the AL, right? And on a really smart team.

But we didn’t just drop DeRo, we had an opportunity to put someone better in that spot. Had Asdrubal not been en fuego, DeRo is probably still hitting 2nd.
