I’m sad that the most interesting man in the world does not approve of what I did today.

Who’s the most interesting man in the world? Tripp Cromer?

by Tango and Cash on Jul 12, 2008 8:08 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

A spokes person for Dos Equis. He’s a lover, not a fighter, but he’s also a fighter so don’t get any ideas.

The spokesperson for Busch Light is a redneck in a wife-beater who beats his wife. He’s also a fighter.

That’s not a good spokesperson.

I haven’t turned on MLB radio yet, but I can only assume Jones got booed after that K.

I just noticed Nomar is leading off. That has to be an even worse choice than Matt Kemp. Nice job, Torre.

How else do you get Pierre like production?

Dear Joe Torre,

If you keep on batting Blake DeWitt 8th, that means you think he’s the worst hitter in the lineup, and that includes being worse than hitters like Nomar, who aren’t very good. If you don’t think he’s hitting well right now, why won’t you play Andy LaRoche at 3B since he’s the better player?

Sincerely,

Every Dodger Fan

P.S. Stop listening to Plaschke. He doesn’t know what he is talking about. Also, he ate the cruller off your desk this morning.

If we don’t keep running him out there, well never know if he was going to be good for half a month again. Plus, did you just see that hustle. Dude was almost safe.

I have two choices: go see someone named Paula Fuga and pull some made tail with my “hey I’m famous on the internet” line, or continue sitting on my coach drinking Newcastle.

I’m torn.

I guess Matt Lindstrom can’t be too good if he has a 100 MPH fastball and a 4.61 ERA.

Just go in, punch the smallest guy in the face, and then say “And that was just the beginning of what my night was like.” Then walk away, put on some sunglasses, and smoke a cigarette.
