1. Tracy Posted: September 23, 2008 at 07:09 PM (#2951483)Nice!
The way the Street is going, I may need this job. I'll have to gain about 10 pounds, though.
EDIT: Do I owe BL a coke or something? This seems a gray area. I'll let you lawyers decide.
This is one problem with taking this job. The other is that once the new Stomper gets established, Beane will trade him for a college kid who might be a good mascot when the new stadium opens.
kevin, I believe the brown on elephants is mud. Speaking of elephants, I get to go to a place that has an elephant bring you bagels in the morning next month. Yay for me!
Wasn't it Sherlock Holmes who always talked about how we overlook the obvious?
That eliminates half the A's roster, doesn't it?
Naw, they got a lot of energetic and fit guys these days. It's energetic and hit guys they're lacking.
I thought that was the people responding to DIPS.

I know you don't like Emil, but isn't that a little harsh.
he other is that once the new Stomper gets established, Beane will trade him for a college kid who might be a good mascot when the new stadium opens.
But Stomper doesn't have to walk far because the whole stadium is tarped over.
Besides Beane could trade stomper for the Watersmeet Nimrods mascot and people would say he stole the trade.
To avoid that, I will go with the second most obvious thing to do: I wouldn't want this job, people might kill me for my Ivory.
True, but think of what it would do for your memory.
I never forget what comes first: My own hide.
Good point. Are elephants Catholic or Protestant?
You're going to need much thicker, more protective costume and perhaps an entire herd of actual angry elephants now. Big ones.
So you're saying I should bring along the Washington Nationals collection of first basemen as protection?
A buddy of mine has a part-time gig at a cigar shop, but he's moving. I may take that over.
Is Shooty the #1 A's fan here? Maybe Danny or marmaducherer (sp) want the job.
I would never claim #1 fan status. Actually, I like the A's fans on this site. No one is too overly fanboyish and none of the A's fans drop a load in their pants when things go awry. It's a good mix of partisanship and reality. It's probably why I hang out here and not a team blog site. Plus I like following the Giants and baseball in general and not just the A's in particular.
But real elephants rip down trees rather than eat nuts, so Gamingboy has nothing to be ashamed of.
Shooty, you're not leaving, are you?
Me A's fan 2. Although I waited until last month to finally read Moneyball.
I guess this is where I confess that I still have not read Moneyball.

Hey what about ME?!
Not that elephant wearing the George Brett uniform...that's something else.
I believe this was a joke based on the fact that Shooty wouldn't be able to post properly wearing his new Stomper uniform.

btw, the story of how the A's adopted the white elephant is an interesting one. anybody remember?
Well, if it doesn't work out for Pablo Sandoval in San Francisco . . .
I do!
Ehhh. Haven't read any of Danny's War and Peace-length explorations of the relationship between Billy Beane and proof that God exists huh, Shooty?
Now kevin, you don't get to throw slings at any perceived fanboys. I'm calling a timeout for you.
Shooty, you're not leaving, are you?
Naw. That breeze you felt was BL making with the funnies.
Yes I can see it now... thank you Lassus.
Good one, Backlasher!
Decoded it says, "Drink More Ovaltine"
Matt Stairs will probably be looking for work next season...
I don't want to steal your glory. Also, I don't want to type that much or find a link. I leave it to you! I'm more a supervisor than a worker.
I gotta agree there Shooty, especially about the team blogs. I won't name any specifically, but one I used to frequent for years went downhill fast and is really just too much hassle for not enough substance these days (aside from the OUTSTANDING interviews). That said, I too love coming here instead as a broad range of baseball topics get discussed daily.
If you liked BL's link, you may also enjoy this epic Deadspin thread, continued here and here.
No particular pride, either.
