Number One: You can't tell me this kind of thing isn't absolutely RAMPANT in MLB. Pedroia's so gullible to think this wouldn't get around the clubhouse in no time? And then, when players are bought and sold, around the league? Of course not, and he's not going to knowingly tarnish his brand to get involved with something way off the reservation. He's a goddamned veteran and veterans pull this shit ALL THE TIME.
Number Two: Fucking. Good. I don't like them getting caught, but I LOVE the Moxie of a club that's always looking for an angle. Whatever. Now they know the limits. But I have zero problem with a little stubble on the whole "America's Most Beloved Ballpark" brand. YUCK.
Number Three: My, what little bitches the New York Yankees have become. If Cashman really thought the act were providing a great deal more advantage than the countless schemes his players are surely involved in, he's calling DD to say "knock it off", not crying a river to the NYT. He's pissed that his catcher doesn't have a clue behind the plate and he's jealous his players didn't come up with the ruse first.
Number Four: Ain't cheatin' = ain't tryin'. Haters gonna hate. Haters also gonna kiss my motherfucking ass. I make passionate love to your hate. Welcome to Massachusetts, BITCH. By the way, get over it: it's fucking baseball, not the shit your local skinheads are teaching to their children.
Number Five: The chicken littles in here already boohooing potential lost draft picks THREE HOURS INTO IT make me ill.
