It's amazing how quickly that guy has become my most-hated person in the game. We're talking a lightning fast ascension here. The guy is a huge freakin' baby who whines about anything and everything. And 90% of his comments look like they're right out of professional wrestling.

Yeesh, at least with guys like Brandon Backe, Michael Barrett, and Jeff Kent, it was a process that took a few years for them to attain that most-hated moniker.

That and at least they actually play the game, even play at a level high enough to be in the major leagues. This guy is qualified for his job....how/why....right sperm donor.

Semi-related: Clemens is a sad panda.

I guess the Yankees misremembered to invite him.

EDIT: Note: Cleveland won 90 games that season, and didn't make the playoffs.
I would love for somebody to bring this up in an interview. I'm sure he'd go all hypocritical on us…

Someone needs to find out his e-mail address so we can start flooding his office with messages about his stupidity.
