Wow, what did I say in that interview on XX that makes me a d-bag? Some constructive criticism or insight from SDPads_1, other than just being a d-bag would be welcomed.

Well, Mr. Scanlan...

I’d just consider the source.

Here's my contructive criticism

With all due respect Scan it hardly had anything to do with that particular interview it’s more so every single time I watch you on TV or listen to you do interviews on the radio you give off an arrogance as if you are some 300 game winner with an almighty knowledge of the game and you are better than everyone else. Yes you are a former player I get that and that’s awesome but I’m just not a fan. I swear I feel like I’m listening to the Donald Trump of San Diego baseball, with the exception that your hair is much prettier. Don’t feel bad because I’m not a fan of Weisbarth or Quis either. Maybe I’m the problem and I’m just bitter that Matty V is leaving or maybe it’s the fact that you were once a Cub….who knows. I know not everyone is going to feel the same as I do and that’s expected. But that is my explanation as to why I think you are a d-bag.

ad hominem?

To be fair, the best analysts aren’t wishy washy. Better for Scan to lay it out there than be like, “Well, the Padres might’ve been good if they did this, but then again they might not have been good, but then again…”

Scan does have great hair.

Scan

Pulling the D-bag card is a bit harsh fellas. I usually reserve it for people I know well enough to make that judgement, like old bosses, girlfriends dads etc… The guy has to go on TV every night after watching a turd of a baseball team and talk about what they are doing wrong and right… that hardly makes him a d-bag. Being an ex Cub is about as close as you can get though….

does have a point with being a cub….I like Scan, I don’t always agree with him, but he does give analysis. There are so many baseball guys that use so many words to say absolutely nothing.

The hair is awesome.

But can you pitch out of the bullpen next season?

Scan for President!

Indeed I have heard him correct himself on air.

He’s the nicest broadcaster I know.

Fairweather is right

Pulling the d-bag card was a little out of line. I apologize for that.

But...

If you hadn’t pulled the card, who knows if Scan would’ve responded? Everybody’s a winner!

Well said

Maybe I’m good for business here at Gaslamp Ball. Who would you like me to target next?

It’s weird I’ve gotten into some classic arguments with people that have appeared on TV, movies or radio multiple times in the past. My favorite was the back and forth e-mailing with Dane Cook in which he said I live a sorry life and wished harm upon myself. I responded with he is already causing harm on me by making lousy movie after lousy movie while stealing all his material from other comics. I feel I won that battle because he stopped e-mailing me after that.

dont worry

even if they dont do good next year he has crying faces and angry faces.
preparation is key.

I hooked up my accelerator pedal in my car to my brake lights. I hit the gas, people behind me stop, and I'm gone.

Change of heart Scanman

I no longer think you are a d-bag….I may not like your style next season but I won’t use the db phrase anymore towards you. You have a happy holidays my friend!!

You never answer what we really want to know

Do you use egg whites in your hair?

Scan delivers

Oh, and there’s other applications for those products as well. In this economy, who can waste fine ingredients?

Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?
