Edmonds and all these old dipshits?

Hate to say it but...

I TOLD YOU SO!

I called this a LONG time ago. This team is AWFUL right now, but it is NOT insurmountable. The signings, or lack of, of this team have cost the Padres dearly.

If they STILL insist on signing old players, I am 41 and willing to collect 6-7 figures to take up space on the roster, sucking the life out of the fans who pay their bloated salaries. I can hang out on the DL as easily as Edmonds or any other necrophiliac's dream. My lifetime batting average in the Majors is .000, marginally worse than what most of this team is doing now.

The front office knows what they need to do. If they have the balls to pull the trigger they can salvage this season. If not, just keep buying tickets and $9 beers and filling Moores' ex-wife's purse.

This CAN be fixed. There is so much talent on this team and with 2-3 players this could be a pennant winner. Yes, a pennant winner. At this point, all possibilities should be considered. Even Khalil Greene being traded. The Padres have to do SOMETHING, NOW, to push toward the winners they could so easily be OR revert back to the Padres during the mid-80's to mid-90's.

No-brainer on my end. Maybe these supposed experts can get a clue. The Chargers did it. If they could, ANYBODY can!

I saw this coming from a mile away...Until they get their shit straight, I'm not spending a single dime on the Padres.

He said Headley was too valuable, but like I said. If they want him to adjust to the outfield, why is he still playing 3B?

Other names that I've heard brought up are Gwynn Jr, and Jeremy Reed.

I'd love to see Tony Jr here. I would pay them to take Edmonds off of our hands in exchange for TG.

Chilli........I see you took down the Trevor blown save sig.......does that mean I get a sammich???

We've all known the NL West was going to be tough this year. At the start of the season, it was the D-Backs running away with it, now the Dodgers are making a dent. Maybe next month, the Pads will start hitting, then it will be the Rockies' turn. They look nothing like last year's team. Holliday is a fraud!
Go Dodogers!

I saw some AWFUL baseball at San Diego Stadium (pre-Jack Murphy) but it was cheap and fun. Only thing cheap now is the team.

Yeah, Jonesy, I remember what it was like. When I was 16, me and a HS buddy would meet two guys who brought the booze and we would spring for the food. Pretty sweet deal for a couple of minors who wanted to get hammered at a game.

Ah, the good old days!

Ordane will be up next week, we are going to play some disk golf, why don't we hook up for a few rounds if your off?? Or whenever, maybe a 51's game, I will take a Dodger dog instead. I didn't even think about it until I noticed your sig wasn't there.
