    Is Way Down Yonder on the Chattakuchi acceptable?

    KuchiKoo should be our third pitcher in the playoffs.

    Come on man. It is so disrespectful to do that to his name. It's not some cool nickname or twist - its not even shorter to write. Its the written equivalent to squinting your eyes and saying 'me love you long time'. I expect it from our "urbanization is ruining America" contingent that hangs out in D&D, but you are normally better than that.

    “Me love you long time” was said by a Vietnamese person.

    Spencer embraces it and actually uses it.

    Big difference.

    He's the reason we are making the playoffs. It was a good trade.

    I was wrong. One of the best pitcher acquisitions in franchise history. I love the guy.

    Just imagine how good he would be if he didn't give up 1st inning HRs.

    JV does the same thing. Something about fly ball pitchers.
