Now It's Personal
I was going to do a typical SOSH dissing.
For example, describing Papi's long fly ball in the 1st:
SOSH dickwad: Fuck. I started celebrating. Premature.
Me: That's what your girlfriend says.
But then I saw this particular line of discussion, involving one Scott the Rock Rockin' Rolen.
SOSH Douche: My brother had dinner last week with Rolen and his uncle. Rolen said that Millar constantly talks about Boston and how much he loves the city and playing there. He also said that Clemens was the biggest jerk in baseball. Not much love for Schilling either but not the venom aimed at Clemens. My brother's take was that Rolen was basically going through the motions and taking his @ 12 million a year but not much passion in his voice about the game.
SOSH Douche #2: What? Playing for a mediocre uncompetitive team as a shell of his former self doesn't get him going?
SOSH Douche #1: Right. It was a bit shocking how honest and obvious he was about it. He then added that if someone was stupid enough to pay him another contract after this one, that he would of course take it, but he was also looking forward to spending time with the kids and wasn't sure it was worth it. He has made what upwards of $110 million in his career. Nice to have the option of walking away from a couple of million dollars. There is just something mind boggling to me about this. I guess it is just so far from my reality that I just shake my head.
I think Rolen reads SOSH in the dugout, cause something lit a fire under him to take it to them. And SOSH noticed.
Apathetic RBI double from Rolen there.
Jesus, fucking fork-in-his-back Rolen killing us tonight.
For a guy who doesnt (sic) give a shit, Rolen's having himself a night.
This game is pissing me off.
I'm pretty sure he got into it with Tony LaRussa because his work ethic was questioned.
They also noticed this:
Rolen comes out to Coldplay...
Yeah...
But here is Cito: " They never quit, they played hard every game (in the losing streak) ... someone asked me if I had a meeting, but I didn't because they played hard."
Except Rolen, apparently. Fuck them.
