6/5 vs Canadian birds with stupid names.
SoxHop replied to User Name's topic in Mike Grace Memorial Game Thread Forum
Good on you...learning to only have sex and trying to impregnate during the football season is something most youngsters don't adhere to or even consider. Wrap up until football season is what I learned early on, glad you learned the same. -
#$%*&^(^^&&$ I thought he'd get us a #2 pitcher on his own...... now a year off at least.
-
he flipped out....
-
true story...........
-
I'm agreeing to disagree with this. My mind it's NO WAY IS THAT TRUE.
-
Change subject...... A high school friend of mine where I grew up in Portland Maine had his sister come up and tell him that she had sex with Hanley while he was with the Sea Dogs....she though that he'd be all happy about it being a Sox fan and all
-
Agreed...... so does the definition of a workplace grind.
-
I hear you. There is a price tag on it.
-
Funny enough...... the only person I could see doing this was JD Drew.......
-
Away from their wives for a few years, with the ability to after buy a private island for themselves for the rest of their lives.....
-
My guess is that %99 of people in the world would think that it is easy and would swap their jobs with that job.
-
yea, the gym can suck, the travelling isn't working on some mindless project. Promotions..... oh the horror. These guys are paid super well because they put in the time to hit a ball with a stick well every day and all day when they were young........ the rest is gravy. Ask a nurse....
-
They make the dough though. Would you rather bag groceries for 365 for the same money?
-
I have to think that batting is never boring........... it's nothing like your boss asking you if you have that report ready......
-
I wonder if batting is ever boring. Many jobs the issue is that you are bored to tears doing your job. I could see a person being next at bat thinking..... this is totally boring and I wish I was programming an app.
-
Interesting read 700.....
-
THey already made their millions..... much easier to walk away....
-
Actually, you're right. Funny enough that was kind of a decision I had to make recently. The money wasn't there though for the time not being home with people I want to spend time with. But, ask me again making one million a year and I have to preform in a batting cage to the best ability a can every city a travel to for 20 pitches every day for 162....... easy money...... no question.......
-
Anyone in the world would do that in a heartbeat.
-
please...... travelling first class in high end hotels for a half a year.......... so what about the nagging injuries, every occupation has something. there isn't a person in this world that wouldn't trade their position to be a DH...... get real.....
-
That is a brutal position to play....... it sucks big time,......... I caught a bit, caught some AA pitchers, they had ungodly junk that never went into the exact correct crease in my glove and it hurt like hell. And crouching for hours and ...................I hated catching and they are tough tough people..
-
I do admit you have to keep it together when you are a hitter. Swinging is explosive and you need to be top notch to be good and probably super top notch in the MLB as far as conditioning. But staying that way ain't as hard as a regular 9 to 5 and nothing compared to other sports IMO and from a bit of experience...
-
Moon, I'm with you. Baseball has nothing over the other sports as far as being hard. You either have the talent or don't. Baseball is stupid...... you might tweak a hammy sometimes. But the other three you wreck you body and are in a bar room brawl for about 45 minutes during the whole game. And being a DH........ it's easier than being a person who puts floral arrangements together. 5 minutes work a day, jog to the base. It's just easier to retire when you have 100 more mil in the bank then the rest of us...... I'm glad he's going out on top though..

6/4 vs Canadian birds with a stupid name
SoxHop replied to User Name's topic in Mike Grace Memorial Game Thread Forum
I'm really pissed that I missed this game looking at the results........ we don't need pretty against top ALE talent...... get it done.......... what's the Swihart thing>? -
I don't think I've ever seen Xander pissed off like that.
