Bagwells Comments on the Beltran Deal I caught it on 610 on my way home tonight. Basically this how it goes. " Honestly i am very dissapointed, the signing of Beltran would be a big thing for this orginization. He would have been the poster child of this franchise for years to come. To have a chance of getting a player like he is, is rare." Then it went on talking about Purpura addressed the media and said his next goal is to fill the voids in the outfield, bullpen, and starting pitching through free agents and trades to come. Nice to see Bags didn't mind having Beltran be the poster child of this team and passing on the handle of the team if Beltran had signed. Oh well move on from it.
IF Beltran planned to stay here, he would have signed in December... IF he was calling the shots. Lots of ifs... for the Astros. All the while Boras/Beltran knew he wasn't coming back. I can hear Boras now, like Tim Matheson in Animal House: "Face it. You f**ked up. You trusted us!"
ha, at least you can roll with it. I just really dislike song parodies or singing comedians. The majority seems to enjoy it though, so keep it up.
oh, and I was wondering if you listen to the band Self. A lot of your parodies and even originals I've heard have a similar sound to them.
No but I am ALWAYS wanting to hear new and interesting stuff. Do have an mp3 you could kick this way??? On singing comedians you really need to try out Stephen Lynch. He's hilarious and original. clm
I guess I could make a mp3 when I get home. I think their best record is "Subliminal Plastic Motives". YOu can read a description and hear some bad sound samples at http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:idjp7ioog7or If you give me the address I'll send a copy to the station.
This is about the stupidest thing I've ever heard...Don't Boo Beltran...Are you kidding me, 1st of all he lied about saying it wasn't about the money, 2nd, he had the ahole Boras as an agent, which, in the grand scheme of things, its not that much more money that in Houston given the lack of state and city taxes here in Houston Texas... I'm booing my arse off every single time....
um, everyone goes for the money in every walk of life. Let me know next time one of you takes a job offering more money so I can come boo you at your workplace.
what?? that's not true. people make work sacrifices all the time for other factors....for more vacation time...closer to family...women stay home with children...and on and on. there are a few guys on this board, SamFisher and TJ being a couple, who claim to have taken less to do a job they enjoy.
