WTF? How does Jayson Werth have this many fans?

I'm sick of Jayson Werth's relatives and friends. Seriously.

If you're taunting someone and calling them names, I don't see how you are so upset with that individual responding to you in a similar manner. Michael Jordan is the most beloved sports figure of our time. What do you think he would do in that scenario? Interesting side note, I saw a game at Wrigley where the crowd taunted Jay Werth while he was on the Dodgers, chanting Jay worthless and what not - crap I'm sure he's heard a million times before. He came to bat the next inning and hit a bomb over the left field wall. Sure enough, he did come back and and give the crowd a look as if to say, "What now?". Only, the crowd was silenced (not about to shit ourselves). And, as a Cubs fan, I had to respect it. That's clutch.

He got called out by the fans and responded with a homerun. Same is true with a game ending catch. His team won. Get over it.

BTW - he's one of the most underated players around. He'd deserve to start in about any outfield in baseball (and he was drafted as a catcher).

Go find a hobby or something.
Here's what I say to you Cubs fan. STFU. I cannot believe that there are this many people willing to S Jayson Werth's C. So weird.

If Anonymous Cubs Fan had read the original post, he would see that Werth was 0 for 3 on the day with three strikeouts. Actually... WTF am I doing taking lessons from a Cubs fan on how to "get over it"? 1984. Get over your goat, Werth Fan.

[editor's note, by Dex] I know this is going to spark a ton of random Cubs fans to talk S about us on Cubs sites and talk about how poorly we treated their fans in 1984. Nobody cares and I'm glad I gave you the opportunity to wallow in bad memories.

Werth fans
the only way someone finds that old post is if they are doing google searches for Werth so they can get their pervy hands on some beat material.  So it doesn't surprise me that they need to defend their crush on him.

Beat material
Call me old fashioned, but I'm far more aroused by the dulcet stylings of an elan diary entry.

I'm confused
You used S to bleep yourself twice. I can't beliweve they were the same usage. At least I hope not. I never want to think about someone defecating on a piece of Werth's anatomy ever again. But I'm okay with people talking Suck. Especially about the Dodgers.

haha
S there was for "suck", which some people consider a bad word.

Ha!
It sounds like Jayson Werth and GG Allin share a fanbase.

the best 1984 memory

maybe cubbies should worry about things they can control...like what will be the new name of wrigley.

Bring back Balboa Stadium.

The "S Jayson Werth's C" line
made me subconsciously censor this jewel in my mind.

"And frankly, baseball fans, Crash used a certain word that's a no-no with umpires."

"Uh-oh. Crash called the umpire a CS'er, didn't he?"

Charlie, here comes the deuce. And when you speak of me, speak well.

Okay, okay.
You've impressed us with your Bull Durham trivia knowledge. Give someone else a chance.

That line in particular resonates with me
because my sophomore year in high school, the assistant varsity coach (a former D1 college player and movie buff) chose to get himself ejected, mainly to stir up the troops, after a bad call and a momentum swing by.... you guessed it, storming from the dugout and getting in a lengthy verbal throwdown with the umpire that culminated in his dismissal after a loud use of the "word that is a no-no with umpires".

And i am well versed in other classics as well.. but the "CS'er" line from Bull Durham was too relevant to pass up.

Charlie, here comes the deuce. And when you speak of me, speak well.

No offense was meant...
I was just giving you props for knowing every single line from every single character in that movie.

...the only time I got tossed over words was in my freshman HS year when I hit a double off of a guy whose sister had been more than generous to me and I was yelling from second about sticking it to both of his mother's kids and the ump didn't like it one bit.

I know ha.
No offense was taken.

More than generous, you say? I would form a semi-coherent sentence with multiple single letters right now, but it is almost too easy.

Charlie, here comes the deuce. And when you speak of me, speak well.

MJ
I really don't like the gratuitous reference to Jordan in this whack job's letter.  What the hell does MJ have to do with this?

Ummmm...
They're both really bad at baseball?

Th MJ reference
Serves to remind us that not everything about Chicago blows, Just the fans and the Cubs. Oh, also the CWS announcers blow hard. I had to listen to them during the game on Sunday, and they don't know their Asses from their elbows.

CWS Announcers....
They just hired Steve Stone full-time, right?

Werth is to baseball what Jordan is to basketball
That's why it's OK for Werth to act like all entitled when he has a terrible day at the plate and is being heckled. It's because Werth has proven himself over and over as being the best baseball player ever. People should never heckle Jayson Werth.

by Dex on Mar 12, 2008 7:43 AM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Jayson Werth is more Craig Ehlo
than he is Michael Jordan.
