Padres hiring Mr. Josh Byrnes, Arizona quotient of front office approaching levels of PSYCHO

#Padres make it official. Former #D-backs GM Byrnes is VP baseball ops. AZ likely still paying bulk of his salary.less than a minute ago via Twitter for iPhone

 

If anybody from the Padres is reading this, I'm gonna say right now that you should hire me to be a VP of something. And then hire jbox to be my assistant. Here are reasons why:

  1. San Diegans don't hate people from Arizona, but we definitely think people from desert areas are weird.
  2. Therefore, you need more San Diegans in the front office.
  3. JBox and I are San Diegans.
  4. Reason number 2 wasn't really a "reason"
  5. F_cked up this list.

Also, from what I can tell, we've got a lot of baseball operations guys in there and not enough people who can do what jbox and I can do... Magic with our minds.

Also-also, if this team is going to take charge and be San Diego's Team (now that the Chargers are moving to LA), we need to make sure that we keep the Zonies under control. Like, for example, did you know that it's illegal in Arizona to cut down a cactus? What happens when we need a cactus out of the way and Josh Byrnes is all like, "Hey, you can't cut that down!" Who will be the ones to say, "Listen, homey. We ain't in 'zona anymore. Cut that sh_t down." Answer: Me, with jbox assisting.

The moral of the story: It's also illegal for more than 6 girls to live in the same house in Arizona. That's a fact.

First!

It is a bit alarming that all these zona guys are coming in, especially since they did such a bang up job for the DBacks.

I like this, and I like it a lot.

Arizona can do nothing but hit. The Padres can do everything but hit. Put the two together … we’re mediocre at everything lol. But seriously, the man has an eye for hitting talent. We’re not exactly flush with guys who can either hit the ball out of the park or hit .280+

I saw rumblings on MLBTradeRumors that they were interested in Mark Reynolds

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Ehhhh, I don't deserve a signature...

I heard Jbox thinks he'd be a better VP

and maybe he’d let you assist him.

Oh internet, what a wicked web you weave.

Weekend at Bernies

Give the VP job to Dead Kev and let Dex and Jbox carry him around

"It's also illegal for more than 6 girls to live in the same house in Arizona."

Isn’t there a website about that? We live together, or something like that?

Note to Moorad

just because all of your former employees keep calling and saying “You’ve got to get me out of this hell-hole” doesn’t mean you have to give them a job in San Diego. tell them you’ll put in a good word for them with the Mets or something.
