It's that time again...
« on: March 01, 2011, 12:32:37 pm »
Yes, our man Chuck is bringing it once again...  Chuck, Live from Kissimmee (2/28/11)
In the end, my dissolution with the game of baseball will not be a result of any loss of love for the game, rather from the realization that I can no longer bear the anger its supposed stewards cause to be built up in my soul. -Lee (01/08/2013)

I felt like I was back there.  The first time I attended Spring Training we went early in the spring and I remember all those hounds.  They are quite irritating.

I also love watching the drills.

Awesome.

No, this codger was not I, nor did I put him up to it. I did befriend him, though. I would guess he’s close to 70 and far more profane than I am. In our friendly chat he called me a prick, a bastard and cheerfully told me Fuck you!


Sounds like Chuck's personal sequel to Back To the Future.

Looks like you're about to get shanked with a sharpie by the old dude in the Raven's jacket and TMNT shirt

The look on that old codger's face is priceless.

Fine work, Patrician. I look forward to more.
I'm in love with rock and roll and I'll be out all night.

Very nice.  A Louis Vuitton briefcase full of information, interspersed with just enough acerbic wit and exclamations of FUCK and its variations to serve as a bracing wake up call for the upcoming season.  Yes.

I have no fucking idea about what I just said, but I really liked the article, it was informative, funny, and very well-writtern.

Chuck-hole.

Thanks Chuck. Good job. Keep 'em coming. Wish I could have made it there this year but this is the next best thing, kinda.

Also what does "an uptick in the paehshin of the club," mean?

Great read. Chuck looks like Mike Scoscia.
