Rob Parker = Jackass

I know it's been discussed allready, but I personally can't stand Detriot columnist Rob Parker. I don't know if you caught him yesterday on 1st and 10 but he said that the Rays winning is bad for baseball and baseball's only good when the Yankees and the Red Soxs are in the playoffs. That really pissed me off. Why then have the other teams Rob? Just let the Yankees and the Red Soxs play 162 games against each other. It would bring in great ratings and we all know that's what baseball's all about, having high ratings.

Later on the topic was on NFL rookie contracts and if there should be some short of restriction placed on the contracts because guys who haven't even played a down yet have allready made more money than the guys who, you know, have actually played a couple of games. Well dumbass Parker agrees with the rookies and says they should make as much money as they should get because they worked so hard in college or whatever other bull shit he was talking about.

I'm sorry about going on this tangent but I had to get it off my chest.

Go Rays!!!!

I've never heard of this individual

And quite frankly, I don’t care to explore his opinions further.

A wise man once said...

don’t let the bastards drag you down.

Who the hell is Rob Parker, and why should any of us care what he thinks. When I hear that kind of garbage about the Rays it just makes me think how much sweeter it will be when they prove them all wrong.
