Someone here had to make this right? This pops into my brain every time there's a bullpen meltdown. Then I watch it and laugh. Still great after all these years. But I seriously want to thank whoever made this.

Yea, La Pantera, awesome nickname. LuBob sounds like a fucking used tractor salesman in Arkansas.

LuBob is almost as bad of a nickname as HoT FiRe or where ever the random caps were.

TAIAA

30 foot power right there. LOL

"I do feel, as we look at this market — and obviously I've seen or heard the vast amount of rumors about our activity — I think it's important to note that we are by no means losing sight of what we're trying to accomplish over the long term. The long term remains the priority. We aren't looking to do stopgap fixes, so to speak,” Hahn said on a conference call last week. “In this free-agent market, as I alluded to before, there are potential opportunities to convert on premium talent that would fit along with what we're trying to develop for the long term. THEN WHY THE FUCK AM I WATCHING EDWIN ENCARNACION BAT in 2020, RICK?

Tim Anderson is an animal. TAIAA

Good ole Rick Hahn at his finest.

So what can Mazara do well? He can't catch, he can't run, his arm sucks.

TA is something special.

Since 2000, I'd guess that record is 3-882. But that's just a guess. We might have won four or five games.

Awesome, so he will then proceed to trade for some 35+ year old FA with nothing left in the tank. Lovely. Remember, this is the same guy that said they wouldn't be signing veteran stop gap type players and then did exactly that the last two seasons. So fuck whatever he says. He doesn't know what he's doing.

0-428

If he did say that, then fuck him. He's part of the problem too.

Those cost money. Gotta think of something that doesn't cost anything. Think more along the lines of trading someone for cash considerations. That's the type of move the Sox excel at.

So fucking fitting that EE was the one to come in for Mazara and shit himself. Fuck you Hahn and your trash roster construction.

Yep. Multiple options on the cheap, to see what we had in them. Instead he further created a log jam by signing a catcher we didn't need and giving Abreu a 3 year extension. Total clown.

Here's another thing about how terrible Hahn is at constructing a roster. Last season he had money to spend and struck out on big time free agents. So this year, after having mostly struck out on areas of need, he decides to go after a catcher. Which, was one area where the Sox could have rolled with McCann and Collins and see what we had in both. Instead, what does Hahn do? It's like he went into a store as a 10 year old with birthday money to buy a certain thing, sees they don't have it and buys whatever else he could because the money was burning a hole in his pocket. The same clown who couldn't put a winner around two amazing pitchers should have never been given the ability to put the roster together after the rebuild. He had his chance to build a roster and couldn't get it done. He needs to go now before he ruins the window with this core with more bullshit signings like EE, or trades like Mazara. Or you know, getting to choose another manager.

Well for a guy like Cruz, it certainly is magic something or other that he's using, pixie dust however, it isn't

Hahn put this roster together, so to a certain degree, Ricky is just playing with the toys he was given. The problem is, Ricky also doesn't understand how to play the game with the toys. They both need to be shown the door along with guys like Mazara and EE. Do you remember when that fucking idiot Hahn said they wouldn't sign stop gap veteran free agents? Then continued to do that the last two years, for literally no reason. There was no reason to sign a guy like EE when we have multiple guys that could fill that roll and put up better production for far cheaper. It's just comical at this point. It won't matter how much talent we have if the coaches around them don't know what to do with them, or the fucking GM filling that roster out with garbage signings that hamper or hold back other prospects.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Hahn should be fired for the trade. Not because of who they traded, but who they traded for. There was no excuse for it.

Dude has no business playing the field. His bat can't carry how shitty he is out there.

His home run calls are the absolute worst. However, just not having Hawk call them, is going to be a huge downgrade, no matter who is calling them. But, aside from that, he's good. I'd rather have some false WAY BACKS, because when one goes over and the YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE BOARD YES happens, it's even more awesome.

So, real talk. Has a Sox shift ever put the defense in the correct spot? More often than not, it seems like if they had just played straight up, they would have been in the correct position to make the play.

LOL at Stone, saying he was sitting on that slider since 2010.
