Johnny done pissed Murphy off. 2-run homer now. Apocalypse is nigh.

Now that Ike Davis isn't breathing down his neck, he's able to relax.

Intense, hard-working & intelligent white guy Chris Carter making serious bid for Mets' Opening Day roster

metirish Mar 24 2010 01:32 PM Re: BREAKING NEWS

OMG Manuel has given Carter a nickname: The Animal. Val , do something here joking aside , it's a good article to read .

It's "Save Your Ass Day" at Digital Domain Online Porno Park, where Fernando Tatis (.091) and Frank Catalonotto (.143) also have gotten their knocks in. Mets lead 5-2.

“When you look at him, you think, ‘Geez, this guy’s so intense, I can’t even talk to him,’ ” said Mets third-base coach Chip Hale. “But when you really break it down, he’s a guy who has a lot of passion for the game. That’s something people outside the game miss sometimes. They think players don’t care? Well, Chris Carter cares.” He certainly seems to care. About what, I don't know. (anyone interpret that Carter article as "teammates think he's a douchebag"?)

I think he has a bit of Shelley Duncan in him.....

[quote="John Cougar Lunchbucket":19cc1m7w](anyone interpret that Carter article as "teammates think he's a douchebag"?)[/quote:19cc1m7w] Yeah, I was gonna write that before I saw your post. The article reminded me of a Bill James quote about Dave Hollins, I believe, where he mentioned that "intense" tended to be sportswriter code for "jerk."

Ahhhh. So that's why they called Pete Rose "intense". Thanks for clearing that up. But I never realized that Joe DiMaggio was Japanese. LOL! Later

Edgy DC Mar 25 2010 05:18 AM Re: BREAKING NEWS

That list is pretty close to accurate, though I imagine I've read Eddie Murray or Bob Gibson refferred to as "intense" on more than one occasion. By the time he reached the Mets, the euphemisms for Murray were less kind.

"Professional" = Old

"Complex" = Head case on a hot streak "Talented" = Under 27, failed in three different shots at starting job "Quiet Leader" = Morose fellow who got the game-winning hit "Calming Influence" = Not that good at baseball

This reminds me of how to interpret descriptions of women by other women. "fucking tramp" = Hot "Ok looking, but a raging bitch" = Very Pretty "My friend ____ is gorgeous" = Above average "Cute" or "Pretty" = Below Average "Very pretty face" = Fat "Just a great person" = Ugly "So sweet" = memorably ugly, probably fat too, will give you nightmares "She's the best, I love her" = might be an alien
