It's bad enough that this is a West Coast game. Toss in Odorizzi and ... yeah, I'll be worthless at work tomorrow.

Your boss called, he wants to know how he'll be able to tell.

According to an NPR sotry STORY, "The word "Hater" — as it's often used today — is derived from the term "Player Hater," a phrase popularized by late rapper Notorious B.I.G., shown here clutching his Billboard Music Awards in 1995."

 

So I suppose it's an age-related to thing, but to my ears I do not like being called a hater when I am merely expressing healthy skepticism.

What?

The guys playing drums and cowbells has been going on every game probably as long as the A's have played! How is it that suddenly some of you are hearing it?

Even unhealthy skepticism isn’t necessarily hating. But it is less good than healthy skepticism.

Is that really true?

 

I'm doubtful.

I'm skeptical I will actually lose the 30lbs I want to drop by September 1st.  Is that healthy or unhealthy skepticism?

I nodded off there. Woke up because I dreamt a dinosaur was yelling at me and called *me* an old lady, that extinct nutter.

This is such a complex question I am just going to eat some ice cream.

Depends on if you weigh 350 or 150.

Let’s not call fellow posters as haters. To be fair, I think Sano has given some reason to lose faith. That’s far from hate. Such a strong word.

And Aggies? You miss the spittoon and you’re outa here!

LOL! What if I said it was under 350 but over 225?

 

I used a line I borrowed from Chief with my doctor during the physical.  Told him I was cutting carbs with my pizza slicer.

This lead is precarious, at best.

 

Let's hope it doesn't become carious!
