But not the steal itself, rather GBOAT rising out of his stance in the batter's box well before the pitcher started his windup because he noticed vernon was halfway to third.

Cripes.<br /><br />Not to be cold and unfeeling, but the idea that the Jays - who are pretty exceptional when it comes to their corporate social responsibility - should just give out handfuls of tickets because the seats aren't filled on any given night is ludicrous.<br /><br />It would be like going to see Away We Go tonight (and you should, because it is wicked), and having Cineplex Odeon fill up all of the empty seats with every Oliver Twist and Pip and Tiny Tim within a five mile radius.<br /><br />An empty seat or box does not create a moral imperative for the team to fill it.Tao of Stiebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12459135109404905466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484762138483195409.post-73111786433028404462009-06-24T12:48:08.599-04:002009-06-24T12:48:08.599-04:00Tao, the Ormsby article was in response to another...Tao, the Ormsby article was in response to another article by Joe Fiorito where he questioned why the Jays couldn't let disadvantaged kids etc use the private boxes when they weren't being used by the bigwigs.Christopher Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05562192300676753113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484762138483195409.post-30972011039325172172009-06-24T11:01:45.740-04:002009-06-24T11:01:45.740-04:00I'd like to see Bullington get another shot - ...I'd like to see Bullington get another shot - maybe at the expense of Camp - but with Downs out and only used in the 9th anyway, Tallet in the rotation, and BJ being, well BJ....we need a lefty out there.<br /><br />I don't mind breaking in Castro out of the pen. Do you really think his long term future is in the roation?

Wells was called a "joke," "crook," and "payroll sucking bastard," in that order, over the course of a few hours. He's been performing of late, but the hatred remains strong, because of that damn Crasnick.Navin Vaswani (@eyebleaf)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08445618400360263938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484762138483195409.post-23440604677809019702009-06-24T10:51:08.815-04:002009-06-24T10:51:08.815-04:00Not sure if you want to bring up Castro unless he&...Not sure if you want to bring up Castro unless he's going to start.<br /><br />Bullington is doing okay at this point...ERA under 4.00 in the PCL is probably noteworthy.Tao of Stiebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12459135109404905466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484762138483195409.post-909251622957140622009-06-24T10:42:57.868-04:002009-06-24T10:42:57.868-04:00FREE BRIAN BULLINGTON!!!FREE BRIAN BULLINGTON!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484762138483195409.post-69730504550915610702009-06-24T10:24:33.743-04:002009-06-24T10:24:33.743-04:00Carlson is a total shitshow right now - perfect wo...Carlson <i>is</i> a total shitshow right now - perfect word.
