Baseball. Blogging. Whenever.Wednesday, September 30, 2009Derek Jeter: a liar or a thief?People here have suspected that I take a perverse, masochistic pleasure in baiting Yankee and Red Sox fanboys over at NBC.Well, you're absolutely, 100% right about that. Someone give me a heads up when the intervention is going to be held. It's a busy week for me. Posted by Craig Calcaterra at 8:56am Comments

I can’t be baited. Don’t know, don’t care. 102nd victory with Kyle Farnsworthless self-imploding in glorious fashion can do that to me… Posted 09/30 at 09:11 AM

Dear God, I’m a can’t-spell-nothin’ dumbass. Fixed now. I can guarantee you that everyone negative comment on that post over at NBC will be along the lines of “Jeter is the bestest evar!!! U suk, dood!” Posted 09/30 at 09:11 AM

This whole thing was staged to Cecil B. DeMille standards. Everyone knows (or should know) that carte blanche was given to players for dibs on OYS. Yesterday’s extravaganza was hawked as a surprise by Waldman when even people on LoHud knew what was happening that morning. Posted 09/30 at 09:29 AM

You could also rile up your friends with another post complaining about the stupidity of celebrating a Wild Card berth backed into in the midst of a 5-game losing streak. Or you could defend it by arguing that the Red Sox put themselves in the position to clinch in spite of their poor play lately. Either way, you’re bound to get some traffic. Posted 09/30 at 09:44 AM

Couldn’t bring myself to read the comments over there. The first comment on the bit about Mike Schmidt was bad enough. Yurg. Posted 09/30 at 09:49 AM

I thought you take a perverse and sadistic pleasure in baiting Mets fans (which being a Braves fan makes perfectly normal). Posted 09/30 at 09:52 AM

Although, after reading that thread… Craig, do you just do this to convince the rational among us that something when terribly wrong when we became Yankee fans? Posted 09/30 at 10:58 AM

The Blue Network Gang is at it again, deriding your jpurnalistic skills because they don’t like the subject matter. Posted 09/30 at 11:00 AM

Brilliant. The best joke is the kind where the subject didn’t even know that there was a joke. Posted 09/30 at 11:40 AM

Wow Craig? Are you feeling feisty today.It’s like you have a death wish provoking those morons. Posted 09/30 at 11:46 AM

I was hoping for some references to Cap’n Jetes’ tax issues, too. You might have caused some brains to explode in Yankeeland. Posted 09/30 at 12:05 PM

I love the fact that you seem to take pleasure in poking the animals every once in awhile just to see how they will react. Maybe next time you could use an even sharper stick and Photoshop Jeter into the picture of A-rod kissing himself in the mirror to see how much poo gets thrown your way. Getting compared to Perez Hilton has to be a highlight of your day. Posted 09/30 at 12:12 PM

So do you make fun of the THT posters over there when you are talking to the NBC posters? I don’t read enough of their comments to find out on my own.

Moose: I love it. Perez Hilton makes, like, $900,000 a year, and he has to risk liability for defamation and physical assault to do it. If all I have to do for that kind of scratch is to say true yet mildly unflattering things about Jeter, sign me up! Detroit: I used to slag on you guys all the time over there. I don’t anymore, though, because multisyllabic words tend to make people’s heads asplode over there. Posted 09/30 at 12:20 PM

Holy crap! I was almost cringing reading that comment thread. If I were you I’d almost take it personally, if not for the overwhelming vapidity and cluelessness of the NBC posters. Where do they get the ideas that you A) can’t comment on the news B) went to journalism school C) call yourself a journalist? Man, that’s something. Keep it up! Posted 09/30 at 12:24 PM

I love the discrepency in the time it took to read the article - apparently anywhere from 30 seconds (comment 37) to *ten* minutes (comment 38). Even the readers of the Derek-Jeter-is-a-liar post are liars! Posted 09/30 at 12:51 PM

You, sir, are quite the fisherman, catching 118 fish on one worm. Posted 09/30 at 12:53 PM
