Is he referring to Jeff’s post? I’m assuming so since it isn’t a reply to anything else. In that case, is he asking where Jeff got the idea that life is fair? Is he referring to the fact that Mystic Tan sucks? Who knows.
“Rookies struggle others don’t”
Perhaps a comma and a period would clear this up here:Rookies struggle, others don’t. Here he may be subscribing to the whole “BUT THE VETERANS1!” crap. But as Gomez pointed out, Woods is not a rookie.
“And those are your ROY people”
Is he again referring to Woods(see above)? Is he saying that Woods is a possible Rookie of the Year candidate? Is he referring to the new posters here at LL?
The independent leagues pay that much?
Thingray - September 10, 2008
Grocery baggers must only get paid yearly
Freeing Ray Schafer - September 10, 2008
HoRam and Thornton get paid more
Gomez - September 10, 2008
No matter what you may believe, Matt Thornton is good now
Jeff Sullivan - September 10, 2008
He has been pitching like absolute death to rallies, hasn't he?
Did he learn a 2nd pitch or something?
Gomez - September 10, 2008
He learned how to throw strikes overnight
Jeff Sullivan - September 10, 2008
I'm still happy he doesn't play for us
Graham MacAree - September 10, 2008
Because if he did he'd still suck
Jeff Sullivan - September 10, 2008
Matt Thorton terrifies me. He's awesome.
Tyler - September 10, 2008
I like that almost all of our September callups are nonprospects
Dewey N - September 10, 2008
This is a lie
Robert - September 10, 2008
Where do you get that idea?
Rookies struggle others don’t and those are your ROY people.
Slurvey - September 10, 2008
Jake Woods is not a rookie
Gomez - September 10, 2008
I don't think you'll last long around here
Graham MacAree - September 10, 2008
Well, he's made it a day so far.
andrewgolfsalot - September 10, 2008
Was that supposed to be humor?
.Taylor - September 10, 2008
No. He registred for the site 9/9.
andrewgolfsalot - September 10, 2008
What does this even mean?
Matthew - September 10, 2008
Good question
Sometimes you eat the bear and sometimes the bear eats you?
Don’t shit in your hat and call it a donut?
I have no clue.
OlSalty - September 10, 2008
That's true, you need to specify that it's a chocolate donut
seattlebruin - September 11, 2008
Let's try to break this down.
“Where do you get that idea?”
Is he referring to Jeff’s post? I’m assuming so since it isn’t a reply to anything else. In that case, is he asking where Jeff got the idea that life is fair? Is he referring to the fact that Mystic Tan sucks? Who knows.
“Rookies struggle others don’t”
Perhaps a comma and a period would clear this up here:Rookies struggle, others don’t. Here he may be subscribing to the whole “BUT THE VETERANS
1!” crap. But as Gomez pointed out, Woods is not a rookie.
“And those are your ROY people”
Is he again referring to Woods(see above)? Is he saying that Woods is a possible Rookie of the Year candidate? Is he referring to the new posters here at LL?
Bottom line:What the fuck?
Goose - September 10, 2008
My guess is it was supposed to be "Some rookies struggle, others don't"
“And those others are your ROY people”
Maybe?
Dewey N - September 10, 2008
this is how I read it
appleshampoo - September 10, 2008
So, in summation:
Some rookies suck, some are good, and others are just okay.
I get it now, it’s a Mitch Hedberg reference
OlSalty - September 10, 2008
Yet I still don't find it funny.
BrianL - September 10, 2008
Perhaps because you did not receive the ROY.
Kirsten Schlewitz - September 11, 2008
Congratulations to Fogel for winning ROY though!
seattlebruin - September 11, 2008
Fogel got one vote.
Kirsten Schlewitz - September 11, 2008
I counted at least two from Graham
Robert, Fogel, LFoJL, Ian? all voted for him as well
seattlebruin - September 11, 2008
And OlSalty
seattlebruin - September 11, 2008
And Omerta
seattlebruin - September 11, 2008
I'm sorry, did I miss a poll?
Fogel doesn’t get to vote for himself three times.
Kirsten Schlewitz - September 11, 2008
Here's the real question
I have a LLemmies FanPost drafted and pretty close to ready. Should we actually vote or just leave them be?
seattlebruin - September 11, 2008
I'd say if we do it quickly, it won't get annoying.
But if we stretch it out everyone will be sick of it.
Kirsten Schlewitz - September 11, 2008
In that case I say that I'll arbitrarily hand out the awards
seattlebruin - September 11, 2008
I don't know if I approve of this method.
Kirsten Schlewitz - September 11, 2008
I'll award you Troll of Year
seattlebruin - September 11, 2008
Yeah, see what that gets you.
Kirsten Schlewitz - September 11, 2008
Alright alright fine, you won ROY
but BrianL did get at least one vote
seattlebruin - September 11, 2008
As opposed to my many legions of fans.
Kirsten Schlewitz - September 11, 2008
Maybe he wasn't saying ROY (Rookie of the Year).
Maybe he was saying ROY (Corcoran).
Eh, EH? Yeah, probably not.
Wilder. - September 10, 2008
Not to be a complete attention whore or anything
but slurvey, have you read this yet? Give it a read. Then try again.
pdb - September 10, 2008
Coherence please.
Mariner John - September 10, 2008
Pssh...I make more than that.
Oh wait, that’s for like a month? Fuck that guy.
Aaron Campeau - September 10, 2008
Two weeks
Jeff Sullivan - September 10, 2008
With a rusty sewage pipe.
Aaron Campeau - September 10, 2008
Life is not fair
Blue Jays run differential – +95
Angels run differential – +62
Blue Jays standing – 4th, AL East
Angels standing – clinched AL West
If the Angels were New York Angels of Buffalo, they’d be the fifth best team in their division
seattlebruin - September 11, 2008
I apologize, Toronto is currently third in the AL East
seattlebruin - September 11, 2008
They would be the New York Angels of New Jersey and Westchester County
