jbox shouldn't take offense to the fact that many of us miss WG's "Smells Like Padres In Here".

It’s no different than seeing Brian Giles in RF and thinking back to the days when T. Gwynn was out there. One was consistently great and beloved by all…the other rarely gives us anything that makes us smile and has poor taste in women.

Oh, Marty

Free opinions, much like David Justice’s “help” aren’t always as valuable as you make them seem. How many hitting coaches does the team need before we just accept the fact that they aren’t great hitters?

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