Brandon got a reaction from 2002_halos_II in Arte finally speaks
Seriously, who makes it all the way to the MLB level and needs instruction on basic fundamentals?

Brandon got a reaction from Tank in The almost major @ TPC Sawgrass
Well, if you can't win a major might as well shoot for the almost major.

Brandon reacted to mancini79 in Dipoto blew it with Jean Segura
Angels were going for a playoff push. When the trade was made, the Angels were only 4 games out and everyone knew pitching needed improvement. That is exactly what he did.
- Segura was expendable since there wasn't going to be a spot for him to play in the near future. He was also ranked in the 50's in most prospect reports.
- It's going to take a lot more than 32 games before I consider Segura as becoming the best MIF in the game.
It's tiring that people constantly knock Dipoto for the exact moves most people agreed with at the time. But now that people have the luxury of hindsight, the over criticism festers.

Brandon got a reaction from Skram in Pit Bulls = Killers
Pitbulls are born killers like people are born racists.

Brandon got a reaction from Vladfan in Rosenthal: Might be time for Scioscia to leave
1) No. I was chatting with a prominent ex-NFL coach over the weekend and he said coaches are there to implement a system and see the system is going according to plan. They aren't nannies, psychiatrists, or marriage counselors, etc. They build strategies and game plans, not hand holding. If players need hand holding they aren't professionals and shouldn't be on the team.
2) OK, so you established 25-40 players are playing bad, what is replacing the coach going to do? A lot of this Sosh fire nonsense is the same people that say make a trade for the sake of it. And yes, if their numbers dictate over a large sample size that they are capable of playing better then you ride it out....it's simple statistics (as in math). And again, looking at math, how is some guy filling out a line up card going to alter these player stats?
3) I don't think anyone thinks Sosh is riding on some 11 year old success....the team got hot like previous WS winners. His record speaks for itself. In the playoffs we beat the teams we should have and lost to the ones that were better barring a missed Josh Paul catch and Fuentes 9th inning fastball to A-Rod.
Congrats on having Angels blood. Hopefully nothing drastic happens that requires regular blood or you may have an issue with finding a donor.

I still don't see how changing the manager is going make Hamilton hit or Blanton to pitch better.

Brandon got a reaction from Tyler in An Open Letter to Arte Moreno on the Issue of Buttercup
Nothing like lighting a spliff on the Budweiser patio and listening to Bob Marley at Angel games.

Brandon got a reaction from YouthofToday in Napoli
Speaking of the subject, the biggest blasts I have ever seen was when I had the press pass and was at the afternoon bp and watching Naps. Dude was seriously crushing. He was consistently hitting the top of the rock pile and all parts of the batters eye. It was pretty sick to witness.

Brandon got a reaction from OregonLAA in First Openly Gay Athlete
I'll never understand the gay thing from a media and social perspective. It trips me out that it's 2013 and a gay dude coming out is the talk of a nation. How far behind are we when a dude coming out is a big deal?
Maybe one day the straight peeps will "give" gays equal rights.

Brandon got a reaction from Chuck in Who needs a laugh?
I was hoping this would be like the Snuggie Parody.
This was better than expected. The fact he used the Career Builder Monkeys voice was awesome, but that wasn't even the best part.
The best was the random scene of crazy cat hair only on the headrest in the car (I seriously love when some guy not only promotes this idea, but they run with it like it makes sense and is normal) and the fat chick rolling crumbs off herself.

Brandon got a reaction from RallyMo in What have you watched recently? (Please use the hide function for spoilers or plot lines)
I generally feel like slaying in bed as well.

Brandon reacted to HaloCory22 in That ball that Trumbo hit
They said 435, but that homer was as close to 435 as Lifetime is to not starting a 3 page argument.

Amazing but as a stand alone.

Brandon got a reaction from Skram in Laptop? Tablet? Mac???
Look into a Commodore 64. The most advanced tech specs and comes with a pretty legit floppy drive.

Did they ever corner the Nazi's and brown guys?

Brandon reacted to RallyMo in Gunshots at MIT
Possibly, but he'll fit in better.
Well, unless they have the exact color, year, make and plate of the car.
...but there's no way they'll have that.
