You guys see this crap that went down today in the Rays/White Sox game? Seems Angels fans' favorite dastardly duo have struck again.

Hey Bud, if you're listening, please keep Doug Eddings away from any playoff series the Angels may be playing in the coming months. Especially if they're facing the White Sox and this cheating scumbag catcher.

I heard about the call on the radio

during Sunday’s game and thought, oh jeez, that A.J. just knows how to get things started.

Then I saw on SportsCenter that it was Eddings.

Witty .sig goes here.

I saw that on Sports Center tonight...

Seriously… WTF???

Those two have something going.

They better come to Cali quick, and make it formal while they still can.

I heard AJ and Dougy bought a condo in Palm Springs. They were holding hands in the dugout tunnel too.

I love the totally objective title, too

“Pierzynski’s great escape” and “Pierzynski avoids the run down.”

What a crock of shit.

Oh, yeah

Good, impartial commentating from the ChiSox booth guys. /sarcasm

Say what you want about Rex and Phyz, they almost always call a spade a spade…and they’ll tell you when the Angels get gifted.

It was TBS national

Warming up for the playoffs I guess.

i was wondering about that...

its TBS but its the ChiSox guys…they even refer to the White Sox as “us” in the clip of baldelli hitting a bomb.

I saw this yesterday when...

my 12 year old, knowing my “support” of one AJ whateverski, called me in when this happened. He had one of those curious “look familiar” grins on his face. Even he KNOWS somebody gotted jobbed by those two!

As much as I hate AJ and his cheating ass...

you have to give him props for knowing what the rules are, and how to cheat bend them in his favor. That, and the enfamous play with us, were very bush-league heads-up plays. Not too many players are cheap intelligent enough to come up with those plays at the spur of the moment.
That said, may he burn in hell.

Hooters anyone?

AJ will find a way to cheat the devil, so...

Why wait? Bring him here! Burn him now!!!! WAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

Volunteers to sabotage the fire extinguishers?

Panther!

You just won a place in my heart. Although I was actually sort of alluding to The Three Amigos, your Simpsons is good too.

Loved the Sportcenter montage of A.J.'s bullshit

Best thing I’ve seen on that channel in a long time.

I have no idea...

and I’m probably just as lazy.

woulda said the same thing but was too lazy...

Show 'em your a panther... Show 'em what you can do....

Damn straight!

GA’s my man. We’d hang out if we weren’t so lazy.

Hell Ya...

GA fan club is the shit. We never have to meet or organize anything really.

Somebody once tried to get us all to meet at a dive bar, but we didn’t want to upset Garret. If a dive isn’t good enough for him, its not good enough for us!

Plus...

we were all too lazy to show up anyway

"Cheating scumbag catcher"

Cmon, Bullits, say it like you mean it … :)

Don't call me Desmond

Nah...

We just want to know how you really feel about him.

i hope we play chicago in the playoffs

and bring in Speier specifically to throw at AJ’s ugly face

Eddings is the issue

competent umpires wouldn’t fall for Pierzynski’s bullsh!t. WTF is this moron Eddings doing still umpiring MLB games? It makes entirely too much sense for MLB to hold him out of any postseason series so I expect to see him in position to botch more critical calls this October…

by LUVtheLAA on Aug 25, 2008 1:03 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

One can still blame AJ

Just because AJ’s found an idiot official who will fall for his stunts doesn’t get him off the hook for pulling the stunt in the first place.

by TheTypingFiend on Aug 25, 2008 1:49 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

My point is that AJ is smart enough to try it

unfortunately, stupid umps fall for such bush league attempts sometimes

Hooters anyone?

by Chone's Chonies on Aug 25, 2008 2:05 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Smart?

Or completely lacking respect for the kid’s game that he gets paid very very well to play?

by ReggieBullits on Aug 25, 2008 2:23 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Smart to think to do it in such a split second situation

it’s worth a try, and it won his team a valuable game. I’d say it’s smart.

Hooters anyone?

by Chone's Chonies on Aug 25, 2008 2:29 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

The issue isn't if he's smart or not.

The issue is that he cheats and uses his knowledge of the rules to defend himself.

Criminals do it every day too.

Why not just drive off without paying for the gas and see what happens?

by ReggieBullits on Aug 25, 2008 6:50 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Well lets idolize criminals & lawyers!

That’s just what society needs!
Mom I’m going to study hard and learn how to get free gas.
It’ll be easy, just you see.
I’ll be able to drive forever, for FREE!!!!!

by TheTypingFiend on Aug 25, 2008 9:34 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I just wish his name were B.J.

Wouldn’t that be so much more fun? Heck, I’ll call him that anyway.

In terms of being Bush League

That right there was national geographic type Bush

by Quinlan's Goofy Swing on Aug 25, 2008 2:10 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

How does he sell these calls?

Yes, he is smart, always pushing the envelope. With Eddings on the other end of the call, though, that is a bit suspicious.
