wow

is he still writing? and more incredibly is anyone still reading? honestly, ‘chass on baseball’? it’s embarrassing more than anything else. does anyone ANYONE on this planet take any of the crap he spews seriously?

there are a few people who simply just need to be quiet and go away and chass is one of them.

Why is this man still employed?

I can do a lot better than that, and I have a meaningless, go-nowhere, trivial job. Somebody explain this to me please?

He is not

That is the saddest part. He does it for free now on his “not blog”.

When i was about to click to this story

the ad on the main page was for Proactiv for acne removal. Perfect.

I click on the link

but then quickly x’d out the tab. I figured it wasn’t worth giving him the page view.

Don't worry

It’s a link to Calciterra’s page. Unless you meant a link from there.

Calciterra is a lawyer. He is going by evidence standards. I don’t think that matters to Murray. he’s kinda driven it into the ground, but I wouldn’t be that surprised if Piazza did some PEDs. I think he admitted to some andro early in his career. Doesn’t matter much to me either way. He always seemed like a classy guy, unlike ’roid raged out Roger. Janish had a big to do over Piazza as well.

I'm sure that after he finished writing

the article, Chass yelled “take that, take that” to no one in particular.

What's that about?

In other news

Because Murray Chass continues to write large volumes of meaningless drivel, I have concluded that he uses crystal meth. This is because certain authors who used amphetamines, such as Jack Kerouac, wrote large volumes of meaningless drivel while on amphetamines.

We should all comment to Murray that rehab is his best option based on this conclusion. We need to help the man.

Note: To my knowledge Murray Chass has never used illegal drugs of any kind (though it really would not surprise me). However, the logic displayed in this post mirrors his logic about Piazza.

You don't have to pretend

Scott was asked if this win meant that Rex Ryan could now be looked at as an equal of Bill Belichick's as a coach.

"Why not better? Belichick is one Mo Lewis hit from being fired," Scott said. "[Brady] don't come in we might be talking about him on the unemployment line."

This is getting beyond sad now.

I cannot imagine any man obsessing over a glimpse of another dude’s shirtless back unless he’s harboring a serious crush on him.

I won't believe it until he holds another press conference to say he's not gay.

Hell, I suspect everyone is gay until they hold a press conference to say otherwise.

Is Congress holding a gay finding investigation into baseball?

I’m sure with all that back acne Piazza couldn’t find a partner anyway.

If he is gay then he should be in the HoF as the greatest gay player since Pete Rose.

by ScottfromPeekskill on Feb 1, 2011 10:36 AM EST up reply actions  

sounds about right

I’ll just testify on Mikey’s behalf that I’m a 30-year-old guy whose facial acne pretty much went away after my teen years, but still has back acne from time to time, especially if, um, I’ve been doing vigorous activity like you would expect from a pro athlete.
