Why Doesn't Anyone Ever Read Or Believe What I Say?

I told you all, before the season began, that this team sucked.

I told you this team is headed for third place.

I told you we would never win a Championship with A-Rod.

I told you we had too many old guys who were going to break down throughout the season.

I told you Joba would be a mediocre starter, and that we would lose game after game without an 8th inning sure thing.

I told you our minor league system ranked 24th , on average, for the last 10 years.

I told you that Cashman is a fraud, and one of the worst GM's in the game.

I told you that Marte and Nady were dumped on us by a much smarter Pirate organization.

I told you this team  could not hit the worst pitchers in AAA if we had to face them at the major league level.

I told you Girardi has no imagination or guts.

I told you A-Rod came back far too early; that he would re-injure himself; that he would wear out and hit .213; and that he has more surgery ahead of him.

I told you we had better pitchers in the Independent Dirt Field league In South Mexico than that collection of clowns we started the season with in our bullpen.

I told you that Nick Swisher was a liability in the field and on the bases.

I told you that Johnny Damon has a worse arm than I do ( mine used to be better).

I told you we would get swept in Boston and that we would be the team that got Big Papi out of his funk.

I told you Chien-Ming was a mental case.

I told you we would lose 2 of 3 to the Nats.

I am now telling you that I am sick of this, and taking the next bus back to the Cantina and our local brand of baseball.

Where we drink.  We hit.  We run the bases.  We hurl.
