Ugliness is Next to Lackeyness

For Saint Paddy's day, he is no longer on the Angels, he wore green for the Red Sox this morning and for John Lackey, here is our Irish Curse for The Benedictine Punk Himself...
Tax his tractor, tax his mule; tell him, taxing is the rule.
Tax his oil, tax his gas, tax his notes, tax his cash
Tax him good and let him know, that after taxes, he has no dough.
If he hollers, tax him more; tax him till he's good and sore.
Tax his coffin, tax his grave, tax his sod in which he's laid.
Put these words upon his tomb, "Taxes drove him to his doom."
Once he's gone, we won't relax. We'll still collect inheritance tax.

Intrestingly
I keep getting re-directed to a online-Disney jewelry store the last few times I come to HH.
Just a heads up.
I brought sexy back, but they only gave me store credit....

Sorry not named after Guerrero...but would be cool
It’s close…
If I accidentally trip and fall down and I have a boner and I fall into a guy's butt repeatedly is that gay?
Roenick and Lackey in the same thread?
My blood pressure just spiked.
Wow Mike, you sure know a lot about laundry.

One has a gold-digging wive, the others are loyal.

No Fantasyland; Angels lose Game 7 to Giants
ANAHEIM (AP) – A near-miracle season came to a harsh end as the Angels fell one win short of a most unlikely World Series championship. Rookie John Lackey was knocked out during a five run third inning and the Giants rolled to a 9-4 victory over the Angels. Despite the disappointment, Angels’ manager Mike Scioscia was stoic. “I’m damn proud of those guys in that clubhouse. We fought like hell all year.”
While Scioscia’s decision to start a rookie on three days rest was second guessed by TV pundits, Angel Darin Erstad sternly told reporters, “We win as a team, we lose as a team.”
-————————————————————————————————————————————————
That’s the story that MIGHT have been written.
Except that rookie working on three days rest came through. The same rookie who pitched seven shutout innings against the Twins in the pivitol Game 4 of the ALCS. A game that was scoreless going to the bottom of the 7th.
Remember the futile 70s. Remember 1982. Remember 1986. Remember the drought of 1987-2001.
And never forget October 27, 2002.

The rookie who grew into a credible vet, and called you a weak-assed fan on his way out the door.
"God watches over drunks and third baseman." - the Immortal Leo Durocher, predicting the coming of Brandon Wood...
That is definitely NOT what he meant.
"God watches over drunks and third baseman." - the Immortal Leo Durocher, predicting the coming of Brandon Wood...
And he definitely did NOT call the fans "weak-assed"
Question: “Fair or not, there’s a sense that Anaheim, that the fan base is more laid back and the expectations aren’t quite as high whereas in Boston …”
John Lackey, interrupting with a smile: “That would be accurate, yeah.”
Gee, Anaheim is laid back. Shocking.

Not THIS set of fans. Not THIS decade. NOT the decade that Lackey knows.
You want laid back? Journey with me to 1975. Or to modern day Pittsburgh Pirates games. Or to San Diego.
THIS is the decade we stood up and shouted the Boston and Yankee fans out of our house. THIS is the decade that we nearly ran the national broadcast crew out of our stadium in a World Series. THIS is the decade of ear-splitting packed houses, 3 million of us per season. THIS is the decade that has the Angel games redefning the modern baseball in-stadium experience. THIS is the decade with 3000+ computer-driven comments per game coming from all around the planet. And THIS is the only decade of Halo fans that Lackey knows.
It is highly probable that Lackey will never be a part of any of that during his career in Boston.

The video is circulating the ethers of the internet.
I did a cursory search of it last night but couldn’t find anything.
The Boston Globe had an interview with a female Californian-born Sox fan (Daddy made me a fan!). Her and her drunk ass boyfriend were at Anaheim Stadium running their mouths. A slew of Angel fans were yelling back at her, and, quite humorously, a chant of SIT DOWN FAT ASS broke out (she was a tad on the hefty side).
Drunk boyfriend attempted to fight the closest angel fan… security pulled him out and tased him.

Oh yeah, I did read that somewhere and lol'd
Even a lot of Bostonians were calling them dumb in the comment section of the article and admitted the same thing would happen in Fenway if the situation were reversed.
Where you there for it? Let me know if you find the video.

Not exactly Lackey's words.
More of a leading question (statement?) from a bostonian beatwriter. Defending the Lack makes me feel dirty, but the dude did wear his heart on his sleeve, something that made him endearing and my favorite to watch on the mound.

Paraphrasing. Use it skillfully else use it not at all.

Right. But it wasn't as if Lackey called out anaheim fans out of the blue.

Nope. You are correct. He did not.
BUT! Presented with his chance to speak directly to the fans who had supported him throughout his entire career, sometimes rabidly (as with that same 2002 WS start where the announcers were openly annoyed by the volume of the Halo fans in the stadium), and to say thanks for that support, and to say thanks for the memories, and to say good luck with our team…he did none of that. And it was instinctive.
He came across as a guy who carelessly and casually shut the door on everything in his past and fecklessly embraced the stereotypes of his present. And he had no problem doing it at our expense.
Note, for the record, that he has not done anything to try and correct the impression that he left in that interview.

Damn, I was sort of dissinterested in his departure before...
… Now I’m pissed…
Way to insite the riot there Stirrups…
Meh...
for the mostpart, we are still laid back.
I made the analogy of an old grandma in Anaheim versus an old grandma in Boston in the threads that reported this “quote.” I’ll say it again.
If Lackey had a bad outing the night before and he:
a: Lives in Boston; a trip to the market the next day would be hell; he’d have old grannies beating him with their purses. Every single person would make mention of his terrible outing.
b: Lives in Anaheim; a trip to the market the next day would be peaceful just like any other trip to the market. Only fellows wearing Angel hats recognize him on his trip. These fans would make no mention of the poor performance in the ballgame last night.
We ARE LAID BACK. Get over it. The general population of Boston lives and breathes the Sox. The general population of LA lives about 10 other things before the Angels pop into their heads…
I love this team.
by Downing Rules on Mar 19, 2010 9:37 AM PDT up reply actions
Yeah, and When Lackey and his wife go Christmas shopping this year...
…and it is Brady and the Patriots that are in the news, nobody is gonna give a shit about him running around town then, either.
As soon as Boston fans get something else to do, they move along and do it. It’s not our fault they don’t live in Southern California.

As long as you didn't spend money on it, that's cool
I’ve never understood people who burn flags and effigies. It’s like, “dude, why are you burning your $20?” I seriously doubt that the person they intend to offend cares that they are burning away their money.

We need to turn the page.
Don’t get me wrong, Lackey is a money grubbing, horse faced, pussy whooped ass, and the classless way he dissed us fans is, well classless, but what’s done is done. Let him enjoy being closer to his in-laws. Let him enjoy near freezing temps on opening day and snow fall on Easter. And lets see how his new team mates react when Lackey shows his “emotions” by yelling at Francona or the chowd crowds favorite boy Pedroia. Screw Lackey. I plan on booing him just like the rest of you, but to be honest, that bitch ain’t worth my time.
YOU DON'T KNOW THE POWER OF THE DARKSIDE.....
I willl teach my children to hate him
Got the 9 year old but the 4 month old is have a problem learning to hate lackey the
is a money grubbing, horse faced, pussy whooped assburn is Boston hell lackey

Classless.
It was absolutely classless for Lackey to diss Angels fans on his way out. We supported him when he – for several years – showed a distinct lack of composure on the mound, especially when he would get into trouble. We supported him, despite his 3-4 playoff record, and his questionable commitment to conditioning [and unquestionable commitment to beer drinking]. He was our horse, and we supported him, and on the way out the door, he lifts his leg and pees on us.
Screw him.

Lackey does not even deserve to be posted on this site anymore
I hate this guy he equates to a pile of dung can we please stop posting any about this douchebag
Now that Lackey has turned to the enemy lets kick his ass
