I prefer Wellington. But it's so hard to prepare just right!

Whenever I see "Boof", I think of the girl from Teen Wolf.

Can we still say "LOL" or is it too cliche? If we cant, then... metirish, I found your remark quite humorous.

Welcome, "John Paul":

Boof is to "Teen Wolf" as Monique is to "Better off Dead".

Was a fairly highly regarded prospect at one point.
Also was part of one of the worst trades in recent MLB history: Bosner along with Joe Nathan and Francisco Liriano to the Twins in exchange for AJ Pierzynski.
And the guy who made that deal - Brian Sabean in SF - is busy polishing his WS trophy right now.

Resnob Foob.

Sounds just as silly backwards. I guess this is the dark side of Moneyball or something.

You can murder my family, you can ravish my body, but I beg of you with all that is decent and holy! Don't destroy my plantation!

Boof?
Barf.
This guy has been told "Get outta' here!" more times than the high school nerd who keeps asking out all the girls on his school's cheerleading squad.

The best part of this news is that its only to a minor league deal.

The only trade of the 00s that compared was the Rangers trading Chris Young and Adrian Gonzalez to San Diego for Adam Eaton and Akinori Otsuka. And the Rangers also made the WS this year. Go figure.

Bonser showed some promise at one point, so I see no harm here.

We traded away some guy named Kazmir for stud Victor Zambrano, but all we got was game 7 of the nlcs... i think we kinda got jipped.

Not that I ever even slightly agreed with that deal, but for what it's worth, we gave up less and got more than the Giants and Rangers did in those other two trades.
