Were you admiring Hamilton's battle over addiction or condemning it? Or both?<BR/><BR/>Your attempts at sarcasm are wasted when it's so poorly written. What part of Morneau's interview made him look stupid? When he said that Hamilton was the real winner and that he go lucky?<BR/><BR/>My guess is that he realized everyone in the stadium and behind the camera was mad that he lost, and he did his best to appease them.<BR/><BR/>As for the comment about Karlee, she was obviously being sarcastic. (as can be seen by the addition of a popular movie quote and the emoticon heart at the end)<BR/><BR/>Again at the end it's difficult to understand you. You said that it was a contest, a contest with rules, and Justin obviously played the rules better than Josh. An impressive performance by Hamilton? Yes. But does the winner deserve to be treated like a second class contestant? Our view is, no, no he does not.Daymonsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16832485378852569696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5801768329447624769.post-80281183872385761412008-07-16T16:41:00.000-05:002008-07-16T16:41:00.000-05:00Whoa I won't even take my time to read that nonsen...Whoa I won't even take my time to read that nonsense. <BR/><BR/>Go smoke crack with Josh Hamilton.<BR/>If you don't know my sarcasm, don't even comment. <BR/><3Karleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00852949713984615780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5801768329447624769.post-90652678827864670812008-07-16T16:36:00.000-05:002008-07-16T16:36:00.000-05:00holy shit.

And to be honest I dont even have a problem with that because it will be that much more of a burn when the Twins finally pull it all off one of these years.<BR/><BR/>Is there anything worse in life then having to listen to the 20 different commentators ESPN had for the Home Run Derby?TwinsWin83https://www.blogger.com/profile/12153898274336117585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5801768329447624769.post-71006537154999423632008-07-15T15:12:00.000-05:002008-07-15T15:12:00.000-05:00Honestly--this is probably one of my favorite post...Honestly--this is probably one of my favorite posts from you guys. EVER. I read this all the time and haven't ever felt the need to comment, but I completely agree. I was so annoyed with Erin Andrews last night interviewing the crackhead over the guy who won. Morneau was such a class act last night.<BR/><BR/>On another note, you might find this as funny as I did. In Sundays game some d-bag named Clete Thomas hit his first MLB homerun. Congrats to him. The funny part was when Bert called him Clit Thomas. Dick kept going and Bert starting laughing and corrected himself. So typical.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5801768329447624769.post-75078902872224748912008-07-15T15:04:00.000-05:002008-07-15T15:04:00.000-05:00I want Justin to go on espn and say this:"I'm very...I want Justin to go on espn and say this:<BR/><BR/>"I'm very sorry I was a strategic player.

Some guy named Mike Schmidt did that, too. And didn't Mr. Favre overcome addiction to pain killers (and maybe some other stuff)? The press seems to think Hamilton has done something unprecedented. <BR/><BR/>It would be very sweet for the Twins to get to the postseason and show the Eastern Sophists Pinhead Network (not to mention FOX)that we can play some ball out here in the sticks, too.Jim H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08221390745888733656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5801768329447624769.post-77708235932564607552008-07-15T12:47:00.000-05:002008-07-15T12:47:00.000-05:00Yeah what a joke.
