Al says something stupid

Al gets pwn'd

Al is a dope - but that whole thread is a pile of stupid smothered in tard sauce.

Sweet Jebus.  I first heard this Hoffpauir idea bandied about by a caller on the Score early last week.  It appears to be spreading.

I'm not unsympathetic to the "We need to look into a replacement for Lee" argument, but advocating that Hoffpauir start over Lee is simply asinine.

I don't care what you think about Lee or Hoffpauir - what Al said there is really, really fucking stupid.  My expectations of Al are very low indeed, and I still can't believe he said it.  THAT's how fucking stupid it is.  I hope he's hanging his head in shame - or whatever it is one hangs one's head in when one has no shame.
Your toilet's broken, Dave, but I fixed it.

We've already determined that he's shameless.

You guys seriously don't get it?  If you take away all of Hoffpauir's at-bats that ended in a hit, he's batting .000.  That's REALLY bad.

That's the worst argument ever.  If you take away all his at-bats that ended in an out, his fagVORP would be infinite!  Or something.

In your face!

If you took away all the terrible arguments, bland postings, echo chamber commenters, bits stolen from others, tirades about appropriate and inappropriate comments, and record-keeping of the Cubs' record when he wears a particular hat or pair of underwear, Al's blog wouldn't be so bad.

Looks like Al is in AZ for the rest of Spring Training. That book about Cubs uniform numbers and his annual preview guide must be raking in the dough so he can take long vacations.

I was at Borders yesterday, and hid the three copies of his book that were on display.

Shit, there were about 30 at the Borders in the QCs.

Good job, though.
