1) used to manage the Stankees
2) blasted Ken Griffey Jr for wearing his hat backwards PRE-GAME
3) was full of candyass Jeter-worship quotes in last Sunday's Times

after years of listening to his interviews and pressers i'm pretty sure #2 can be attributed to reckless youth, he'd never say something like that today. every time i read about buck in the 90s he sounds radically different than he does today. he seems weathered now
and everyone's worshiping jeter, come on. if it makes you feel any better the orioles literally gave him crabs.

it's just baseball, hating is fun
really from the AL side I want the WS to either be Oakland's happy ending or a showcase for Trout.

i want the A's to collapse completely bc a job should never be halfassed and also it'd be hilarious given beane's late season trading strategy also because of sean doolittle's gnome beard

I don't like that comedian named Showalter either.
If you don't believe in halfassed World Series champs, may i introduce you to TOURNAMENT BASEBALL and the 2006 Cardinals in particular.

Chris Cotillo @ChrisCotilloFollow#Orioles aren't done after signing Hardy. Latest on extension talks with Nelson Cruz and Nick Markakis: http://sbnation.com/e/6716684 3:00 PM - 9 Oct 2014
lol ok
― linda cardellini (zachlyon), Thursday, 9 October 2014 19:54 (nine years ago) link
sentimental me wants to keep nick around knowing he won't be worth it
cruz would be a terrible move tho, just give him a QO and let someone else deal with the inevitable disappointment
― linda cardellini (zachlyon), Thursday, 9 October 2014 19:56 (nine years ago) link
aaaand markakis denies any extension talk.

every child's dream has clearly been to inherit a buck showalter garden gnome
although it does sort of make sense he is def comparable to a potentially murderous occult creature
― are... are you saying you fucked a gazelle? (slothroprhymes), Wednesday, 25 March 2015 18:44 (nine years ago) link
makes more sense than the Mets' deGrom gnome

“What is the purpose?” Showalter asked later. “Do people get up in the morning and they go, ‘Honey, are we going to the game today? …They’ve got that gnome tonight. Pack up the kids. We’re going?’”…Really?!”
