Why would anyone read Bleacher Report and expect otherwise?

Or really, why would anyone read Bleacher Report at all?
Take that, Adolf Eyechart.

Any David Patton news? There has to be a valid reason we kept this guy on our roster last year right?

The last time a Patton was involved in a sneak attack, it looked like this:



Sadly, he wasn't at D-Day.

QuoteNear the end of the Sicilian campaign, Patton jeopardized his career by slapping a soldier recuperating from battle fatigue at a hospital; Patton considered him a coward. The well-publicized incident caused General Dwight D. Eisenhower to relieve him of command. Thus, instead of playing a major part in the Normandy Landings and Operation Overlord, he was relegated to acting as a decoy in Operation Quicksilver.
This is so bad, I'd root for the Orioles over this fucking team, but I can't. Because they're a fucking drug and you can't kick it and they'll never win anything and they'll always suck, but it'll always be sunny at Wrigley and there will be tits and ivy and an old scoreboard and fucking Chads.

Patton was involved in the sneak attack, though. 

The Germans even thought that Normandy was a fake and kept 99 divisions up at Pas-de-Calais for weeks on end because there figured there was no way in hell that Ike would waste his best general like that.

So this SNEAK ATTACK involves forcing every other team in the NL to specifically tailor their rosters to meet the awesomeness that is Dave Patton.  Then, on opening day, we hit them with Les Walrond.  They'll never see it coming.

Awesome. I want TEC PM'd, paged, Tec-signaled or whatever anytime the subject of military history is broached. I insist.

Now tell us how much of "Sergeant York" is real, as opposed to glamorized?



I think he's more of the appendix of Desipio.  Yeah, it's here and you're vaguely aware of it, but only if reminded.  The only time anyone notices it is when it ruptures (on Weebs in the video game thread).  Beyond that, though, it's basically useless and offers no redeeming value.

Quick, who played Left Field for the Cubs when Paul Assenmacher picked up his first blown save in 1990?  And what was the weather like that day?

I can only guess Dwight Smith or Lloyd McClendon.

If it was Dwight, and he sang the anthem before the game, then it was sunny.
