Apparently, people who frequent this site aren’t the only ones who aren’t allowed to post elsewhere.
An overseas Cubs fan got some disturbing news.
And frankly, he didn’t handle it as well as you might think.
And no, he doesn’t actually have a Desipio account.
Brilliant. I hope we get a recap of Al’s reaction. I can only imagine.
I told BCB reader dat cub fan daver, who joined us in the bleachers for today’s 11-3 Cubs blowout of the Padres, that “now you have to come back every day!”
now that’s how you write a lead!
Nobody likes hot knees!
I like shorts as much as the next guy but we’ve got more important things to talk about.
I don’t understand, if BCB is so horrible, why it gets mentioned in every other post on Desipio. I read Al’s recaps since I read just about anything about the Cubs, and he’s at the games and sometimes will see something that doesn’t get mentioned elsewhere. I skip the comments and other crap and skip being annoyed.
I find Chuck to be annoying so I don’t go to his site. I enjoy Andy’s writings but find the Cubs Live(!?) game threads annoying so I skip those. I don’t get, with sooo much shit out there to read, why you obsess with one you obviously hate.
I am Robb.
Thanks Robb, that second b must be for benevolent!
You are right, these meanies should leave me alone. It’s not like I do whatever I can to squash any semblance of actual discussion at my Web site. It’s not like I just started banning anybody who I thought was remotely connected to Desipio or HJE. Nope.
And I’m glad you read my recaps every day because I’m at the game and I see things that you can’t get anywhere else. Like which one of the shut-ins finally got to go outside and see a baseball game, or which hat I wore that day and what the Cubs’ record is when I wear it.
Thanks for your support. And by the way, I took two years of German in high school and several of those translations are just plain wrong.
You’re banned from Comments, #5. Kaput.
So, to be clear: you don’t like all the stupid shit he does on his site but what really pisses you off is that you can’t be a regular commenter there?
Honestly, I could give two shits about Al or if you folks spend your time bashing him. I just got a chance to watch the video above, and that’s funny shit, so I can see the reason for the post today. I was just curious about the fascination with him, cuz he seems to come up a lot.
If I came off too douchey (douchie?) then I apologize to all you cool kids w/ Desipio accounts.
Allow me, Robb…
Many of us are just annoyed that Yellon is viewed as some sort of “fan’s voice” of the Cubs when he’s really just a self-promoting jackass who caters to the lowest common denominator of maudlin sentimentality and joy-popping Cub fans. If Andy wished to sell out his integrity, he long ago would have taken this route. Combine that with Yellon’s ridiculously self-important crypto-fascist monitoring of anything and everything written on his site, and what you have is not only a pollyana douche, but an un-American autocratic control freak who fears open expression on his cesspool of a site.
As a Cub fan with an appreciation for our constitutionally guaranteed right of free speech, I am personally offended by his mere existence. Frankly, I can never get enough of this tool being mocked.
Frankly, I just enjoy making fun of him. Does it really have to be any deeper than that?
You don’t need them to post here.
this is the type of stuff that makes you want the cubs to lose
That’s some funny shit, Andy.
Thanks for the laugh.
How do you like my new screen name, I’ve been looking for one for a long time.
@ Mike D.: fair enough. I can understand that, tho I never realized he was recognized as any more of a Cubs fans voice than any other of 100’s of Cubs Bloggers.
Actually I think Andy’s explanation is better. Sorry to be a spoil-sport douchey fucktard.
Adolf, ya! This is Erwin Johannes Eugen – The Desert Fox. I tired using BleedCubbieJew and was banned for life. It won’t work. Maybe I was wearing short pants when I tried though. Maybe you should try using ShortPantsBleedCubbieJew . . . ya?
So when do you want me to take Poalnd?
#16, are you the same guy who likes to point out that Jason Marquis is Jewish?
Andy, Can I use BleedCubbieJew on my new line of Remetee t-shirts? Be sure to check out my line of shorts (short pants).
#17 – Are you Polish?
Props for use of the term crypto-fascist.
#15, unfortunately, whenever the “legitimate” media wants to hear the “voice of the Cub blogger”, the first place they go is BCB. Al himself works in the “legitimate” media, he’s a weekend behind-the-scenes guy for one of the TV stations here. I guess that, along with his pollyanna outlook, makes him the perfect “go-to” guy for the largely lazy media. I think more than anything explains the angst we all have.
“Honestly, I could give two shits about Al or if you folks spend your time bashing him”
To post on a message board, and then further engage about a topic that you “could give two shits about”, sure makes it seem like you do care. Maybe youre right, you dont give two shits, but you do give 3 shits about it.
Adolf, after I take Poland, ya! Do you want I should take #22 – latetotheparty to “The Party?”
Ya?
@Mike D.
What does your “appreciation for our constitutionally guaranteed right of free speech” have to do with a conversation not involving governmental censorship, genius?
I think Yellon is a fool also, but I don’t obsess over him like you. Maybe it’s actually that you’re jealous that he gets more attention as the go-to Cubs fan. None of you guys would ever be man enough to admit it, but that explains all the attention you’ve given him for years. Jealous of Yellon? That is fucking sad.
I think Dolan is funny and I read his stuff on the main Desipio page, but I stopped going into the message boards because I’ve fucking had it with the rest of the self-satisfied douchebags who think they are smarter and funnier than everyone but their own group of self-satisfied douchebags. It’s too bad Dolan puts up with you circle jerkers, because he could probably do pretty well without you guys.
I could namecheck all of you losers, but you’re the only one proud enough to put your name out there to show us how superior you are to Yellon. Make a baloney sandwich joke! Show us what ESPN is missing by not having you on Baseball Tonight!
You’ll probably ignore this, but someone needs to tell you Huey that your writing is a pale imitation of Dolan’s.
Quite possibly the funniest vid I’ve seen, unless of course you count Milton Bradley At Bats…
