Everyone can put the Xanax away.
After some tense hours, your prayers have been answered! He's going to be fine!
Shortstop Ronnie Cedeno doesn't have a broken wrist! It's just a bruise.
That collective "Phew!!!!" sound you just heard? That's the Pirates Management team breathing a giant sigh of relief after hearing the fantastic news.
They know how devastating any extended absence from Cedeno would've been to the Pirate lineup.
So, breathe easy this morning, Pittsburgh. Ronnie and his .243 batting average will be back in the lineup sometime soon.
Come to think of it, maybe that noise you heard earlier was just Neal Huntington reacting enthusiastically to a nasty protein fart. Because seriously...he'd have every reason to be as excited about the fart as he is about getting Cedeno back in the lineup. This team's a stinking joke.
Dear Anthony: Not sure if there's anyone that actually cares more about Ronny Cedeno than Ronny Paulino but I have to say I'm a fan of that picture you posted. I'd almost be scared to pitch to him after seeing that.
ReplyDeleteIf only the Bucs still had the BFFs jumping Jack and Derf Sanchez in the middle infield.....Oh wait, they are both actually on the DL. Sanchez hasn't played yet this year.
ReplyDeleteHopefully, a real long term SS shows up in the next year or two. Maybe Chase D'naurd (spelling) or Jordy Mercer. Cedeno is the definition of stopgap.
And just think Anthony, you could have known this info even sooner if you would only subscribe to PG+....See what we are missing?
ReplyDeleteWhen Dejan Kovacevic (sp?) announced that the PBC blog was going to start costing the readers money, like 7 out of the first 10 comments were glowingly positive. If that wasn't staged, neither is the WWE. If the postal service told you that you had to begin paying a monthly fee to get your mail (I know, I know, our taxes pay for it, but bear with me), would your reaction be joyous? No. You might not mind much, but you certainly wouldn't celebrate it like the PBC commenters supposedly were. What a joke.
ReplyDeleteAnthony the Mediocre... online news subscription is not like the postal service, poor analogy. If papers were making enough revenue from print then maybe continue to be free. But as an industry, according to the Newspaper Association of America, the circulation levels in 2008 were down to levels last seen in 1971 (with a peak around 1993). Sounds like the internet is doing some damage and it's like anything else in the world... it has a price.
ReplyDeleteJames... All of the boring stats in the world don't take away from my only point--that the audience's reaction to DK's blog about getting charged every month for the PBC Blog (that was free up until that point) was absolutely staged. When someone says "Hey James, you're boring. Any way, your favorite website, xxxxxxx.com, is now going to charge you $3.99/month to see it," you wouldn't react with: "WOOHOOO!!!! I am looking forward to give you such a little amount! My pleasure." That's similar to how people "supposedly" reacted to DK's news. The comments were ridiculously staged by the Pg people. My point had nothing to do with the USPS, but come to think of it, they're hurting as bad as newspapers are, so it's really not as bad of an analogy as you think. The internet has done some damage to the USPS, too, I think. Unless you don't use email. I'd take Zack Morris on an SAT re-test over you any day.
ReplyDeleteATG--I don't know if that was Jim who wrote that last comment but it might as well have been. Did "Jim's the Awesomest Blogger" just ignore your comment about the PG blog? If JTAB thinks you were even talking about the post ofc, then maybe he is retarded. had nuttin to do with your blog post So take it easy on him
ReplyDeleteYou know what? Good call, Blah. I thought it was Jim at first, but upon further review, it isn't his writing. I called Jim yesterday to confirm, but as usual, he didn't answer. I've been thanking God for that all day. Anyway, I agree with you that "Jim's the awesomest blogger" clearly has a mental handicap, but I don't know what it is. I don't know what medication could be prescribed to cure his boring comments. ???
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmm... Anthony the Mediocre, did you just post as 'Blah' to try and prove a point about postings being fake? Nice try!
ReplyDeleteYes. I have that much time on my hands. Get a Gare Cut. Your hair is obviously penetrating your ears holes and working its way to your brain.
ReplyDeleteI have two prime suspects, and they're not Gary Wright, any weaver, a Porkman, a Foe, a weisel, a bird, a snake, or a mouse.
My suspects are 1) someone who came out of his shell in high school or 2) a boring water boy.
LoL!
ReplyDeleteHey anth, do you still go to the Ymca every day?
