  1. The most famous thing Billy is famous for is having F*** face written on his knob of his bat. Pass on pimp's idea.
  2. 2013 Callaspo = 2012 Wells. Lucho 2013 = Trout 2012?
  3. Way to crap on a dude who is raking. The angels pitching still gets 27 outs (or 24). So not everyone is killing it against us.
  4. Solid agreement with the Juice bar here. Langston is refreshing. We need more of this honesty. I like seeing that Langston is a bit more honest and passionate about the position of the team. I've never liked the idea of the Angels controlling what the announcers say (no lifetime, I don't have any corporate memos dictating such) but its nice to see victor take a rip every now and then at the team too.

  6. Shell, what a very special story you shared. My grand-aunt was a die-hard Cubs fan. Growing up in the 70s I counted on a package from Chicago every birthday and xmas. While she didn't have a lot of money, she'd manage to send me a Cubs sticker and something biblical every holiday. She too suffered from dementia, and it tore my heart out. She went into assisted living in her mid 80s and died 2 years ago at 98. Your mom, like my Aunt, is the best kind of fan. Undying loyalty and a passion for every player and every season, regardless of win-loss record. In the days where the majority of fans are either fantasy statistic obsessed or those who use social media to bitch about their teams, there will always be the fan like your mother. The Angels may not be clear in her mind, but they are enormous in her heart. The fact that she brought you up in that environment is awesome. Hopefully you can decorate her room with some Angels mementos so that every once a while, the spark in her mind will fire up for the Angels.
  7. I do agree that it appears we have no leadership. Not even sure who that guy would be. That's a lot to put on Trout's shoulders. Pujols and Hamilton don't want it. Maybe Weaver.
  8. I know why they were pissed. The smell came after you ate. They were downwind.
  9. "Mike... I see the mound just perfectly. Can't understand why Josh or the rest of these guys can't hit a ball coming at him from 60 feet, 6 inches away." "Yeah Jer. Any luck getting the league to ban the breaking ball to Josh? I think the argument that it could lead to his eventual relapse is a strong one."
  10. Not sure he'd be effective managing starters and talking to them in the 6th and 7th inning about how they're feeling, "c'mon you pussy. Work through these menstrual cramps and finish this inning off." But I'd love to see him around. I always hate him not finishing his career in Anaheim. He'd definitely be good to flip some shit over in the dugout after a loss, and smash a few urinals. He might be the guy to actually upend the Sosh postgame buffet table. I think we'd definitely see him in the faces of guys, heaving and spitting tobacco juice all over the place. I'm in on his rejoining the team. But I also agree he needs some minor league instruction on coaching.
