Three Useless Assholes
When you have the bases loaded twice with 1 out and still lose 3-2, you deserve to lose. Seriously, this was probably the most boring game I’ve ever seen. No sense of urgency + no one giving a shit = no ALCS.
Now… My Most Useless Player awards, all of whom forgot how to hit a ball once the calendar flipped to October. When you bat these guys 3rd 4th and 5th and they’re all hitting under .200, you don’t win playoff games. Simple as that. From best to worst:
Nick Swisher
- Batting: 3-15 (.200)
Mark Texiera
- Batting: 2-15 (.133).
- 0 RBI
- 5 strikeouts
Statistically, Tex was hands down the most useless player this post season.Awesome bro. Awesome…
And the winner of the most useless because I said so…

.
.
A-Rod
- Batting: 2-14 (.143)
- HERP DERP
Dude wins hands down for choking every fucking postseason, making the last out and making the most money.
As Much As I Rip on Apple…
RIP Steve Jobs: 1955-2011
You have to admit that Steve Jobs was a genius – a brilliant innovator and businessman. He took a failing company and transformed it into an innovative, popular and technologically influential force that is received positively by almost everyone.
As much as I rip on Apple and their fanboys, you have to respect what the company has done along the way and how they have influenced the tech industry. They really know how to market products and sell the shit out of them.
Here is one brilliant video of Jobs in 1997, before Apple came all the way back to become a market leader. There’s something about this video that I just find interesting. Some guy is ripping Jobs apart and his response is just brilliant.

Two quotes to remember, which every software and hardware company should go by:
“You can only please some of the people some of the time.”
“You’ve gotta start with the customer experience and work backwards to the technology. You can’t start with the technology and try to figure out where you’re going to sell it.“
PS – what’s the over/under Apple stock goes down more than 10% tomorrow? I’m going over. -11%
And it all Comes Down to this Crazy Bastard
Season on the line tonight, folks! Good or bad A.J? Who ya got? The good AJ or the AJ I bashed a new asshole in?
I can’t believe the entire 2011 season comes down to this jokester. Come on!
Welp, I Was Wrong About Jobs

I predicted he was donezo in back in 2009. I was wrong by a few years.
Too soon?
