Yes. Thankfully I got out. The whole place is nothing but desolate wastes and fierce beasts. All my friends were getting eaten up. So I moved away from all the Wangdoodles, and Hornswogglers, and Snozzwangers, and rotten, Vermicious Knids.

I have no problem with him getting beat up in the next riot they have in the St. Louis area

Haha. My mom went on a date with him back in the day. Said he was a nice guy.

Cubs fans suffered in 03 with Dusty Baker so it's fitting that Dusty proved to be such a shit manager 14 years later and it helped the Cubs this time.

Scherzer comes in to the game in the bottom of the fifth with the Nats leading by one run.

He throws 6 pitches and gets two outs. After 22 more pitches the Nats are down 7-4. Bye bye Max.

Shoulda brought him in in the 3rd like I said. They probably win 8-1 if they do that.

looking through that series, Dusty's bullpen was an absolute dumpster fire, and Gonzo is who really ruined that series. Let's blame Dusty for 04, 05.

Dusty's bullpen could have easily included Carlos fucking Zambrano or Matt Clement but he prefered Dave goddam Veres

and he watched his young stud 23 year old pitcher meltdown and waited til he gave up the lead to even go to the mound.

Gentlemen, should something foul happen to me, please remember this post when looking for suspects but please remember that I am against the death penalty.

I’m surprised Dusty didn’t bring in his 23-year-old kid to the press conference and sit him on his lap.

i know that it is too long for anyone to sit and read in its entirety, but this game thread from a Nationals message board full of die-hards was very interesting as i randomly jumped from page to page. Confidence and nervous anticipation before the game, dancing on the Cubs grave after the home runs, freaking out about Gio Gonzalez being in the game, all the Dusty hatred, complaints about horrible umpiring, the Scherzer meltdown, the aftermath and fan hatred towards the manager and the entire organization, its all there from an interesting new perspective. They are all pretty much ready to kill themselves and it kind of makes me feel good just jumping through it. it is pretty much an 87-page long suicide note from Nationals fans.

That's a great find. Thanks. I will enjoy it.

EDIT: holy shit...87 pages on ONE GAME

First gem...

I've already booked a flight back to DC for Game 3 of the World Series. Looking forward to seeing the expression on my Dad's face when he gets to his first World Series game after waiting so long for baseball to come back to DC. Really hoping we match up with the Astros... I can make the drive to Houston in three hours from San Antonio.

I'm telling you right now, we're winning this series tonight.

some great nuggets in there. the hostility is so thick you can taste it. towards the cubs, towards dusty, towards the front office, the umpires, and REALLY for ron darling. they fucking HATE that guy. a little common ground with cubs fans there.

Washington D.C is just a horrible collection of people/fans/human beings.

In fairness, there were Cubs fan in this thread who were dancing on the Cubs grave after the Murphy and Taylor homers.

That's what is great about him. He hates everyone/everything until a moment arises when he drunkenly proclaims "I love all you guys." And the cycle starts over.

This guy gets it.....but the Gonzo error was pretty fucking huge, as well.





it's sad...I can't find pics or videos of these 2003 post-game pressers.
