:D not at all

My favorite trot move was when he caught a fly for out #2 and then threw the ball in the crowd and started running off the field.

Hes a good player but i dont think he is as good as folks around here (CT, MA) talk him up.

Randy Johnson had his first press conference of spring training and he's blaming the media for all the problems he had during his 2 years with the Yankees. What a surprise. :lol:

Right.

His back problems probably started from fighting off the press....










...or maybe he's just really old

No!!!!! Really? It's all the media's fault that he played like s***.
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

And if Prior goes down, Pavano won't be long.

I am with you. I always thought he was overrated. He was a sub par fielder and you would think all those years he has played he would be able to adjust to lefty pitching, nope. He got his uniform dirty and was an intense player so people loved him, they will be a better team without him. If you look at his offensive numbers look how much his HR's, Slugging % and other categories dropped after 2003, also know as the last year before they started testing for steroids.

I read yesterday Carl Pavano had to sit out Sunday's practice because of "heavy legs" :-? http://www.nypost.com/seven/02192007/sp ... e_king.htm

What the hell are heavy legs?

Maybe he went out drinking the night before, got real tanked up and had a hangover. Couldn't move too fast the next morning...hence "HEAVY LEGS" :lol: :lol: I think I had that once before...
