    Default The Lost Yankee Pitcher

    Interesting read. The Yankees signed a $46 million contract with this Japanese pitcher but he's so bad they won't let him pitch in the Bronx. They can't get out of the contract so they make sure he pitches "somewhere". I'd bet a scout got fired over this deal.

    The Elites don't fear the tall nails, government possesses both the will and the means to crush those folks. What the Elites do fear (or should fear) are the quiet men and women, with low profiles, hard hearts, long memories, and detailed target folders for action as they choose.

    The Red Sox didn't do much better with their Jap pitcher. He's a human rain delay, works himself into a full count every batter, and has thrown 130 pitches by the fifth inning. Huge disappointment. He's been similarly banished like the Yankees did; the Red Sox are paying him to rehab away from the team and take a hike. Guaranteed contracts.

    Fuck the Yankees indeed agreed.
    Tell me sump'n. Why you askin' so many jackassy questions?

    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.
