ethier_or: ...and this is our clubhouse big screen. We've really been getting into the holiday spirit lately, watching all of our favorite Christmas shows and specials. |
 |
LieberthalBehind: oh that's cool, you mean like that one McDonalds commercial where the kid is all shy about ice skating but then Ronald and some deers make him do it |
 |
ethier_or: uh, sure. Right now we're watching the episode of Fresh Prince where they go on a ski trip for Christmas and get their presents stolen. |
 |
LieberthalBehind: oh okay. Yeah I never really watched this show. |
 |
ethier_or: oh, dude, it's fucking hiLARIous, coming up here in a minute is when Carlton sings "Deck the Halls" but changes the lyrics to be about how he's going to get some booty |
 |
ethier_or: which prompts Will to chime in with a rather scathing burn about how Carlton is ugly |
 |
LieberthalBehind: yeah I always thought this show was kind of overrated |
 |
LieberthalBehind: Hey, where can I get some Dodgers stuff? This hat has pee on it. |
 |
ethier_or:  |

ethier_or: oh, uh, hey greg. |
 |
maddux.xmission.com: Hey man, just wanted to let you know... I'm getting ready to head on out. I've got to be in San Diego by the time Spring Training starts, and I'm pretty slow moving. So. |
 |
ethier_or: nah man, it's cool. It's cool. Hey, good luck over there. |
 |
maddux.xmission.com: Hey, thanks a lot. And hey, Piazza's gone so I don't even have to worry about the mustache rides. |

BigTroubleInLittleGrady: Kid, you gonna be all right? You need me to trade for James Avery? |
 |
ethier_or: Hey, you know what? You ain't gotta do nothing, coach. You know, ain't like I'm still five years old, you know? Ain't like I'm be sitting every night watching WGN, asking my mom "when're the Cubs gonna put him in," you know? Who need's 'em? |
 |
ethier_or: Hey, he wasn't there to teach me how to swing a bat, but I learned it, didn't I? And I got pretty damn good at it too, didn't I, coach? |
 |
BigTroubleInLittleGrady: Yeah, you did. |
 |
ethier_or: Got signed to a team without 'em, right? I learned how to field, I learned how to throw, I learned how to fight without 'em. I watched six seasons of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air without him; now he's off to San Diego for a paycheck. THE HELL WITH HIM!! |
 |
ethier_or: I didn't need 'em then, I won't need 'em now. |
 |
BigTroubleInLittleGrady: Andre... |
 |
ethier_or: No, you know what, coach? I'ma make the all-star team without him, I'ma win a World Series without him, I'ma get into the hall of fame and have a whole bunch of rookies looking up to me. I'ma love baseball more than he ever did. And I sure as hell don't need him for that, 'cause it ain't a DAMN THING HE CAN EVER TEACH ME ABOUT HOW LOVE BASEBALL! |
 |
ethier_or:  |
 |
ethier_or: How come he don't want to be on my team, man? |
