I think it was a little overwhelming just HOW MANY people want Dontrelle there, and won't see him because of Dusty picking Russ Ortiz...

and its a landslide.....

 

 

dusty is going to get s*** for a long time over this.

I want Dontrelle, NOT Ortiz, and America agrees....

 

Dusty, you are the weakest link, GOODBYE!

It's not JUST dusty, Remember player's chose also who started. For all you know maybe not all The Fish Voted, It's going to be a topic of debate up to the game.

i still think DW finds a way in

 

try this on for size....

 

MIKE LOWELL SHOULD START THE GAME AT DH!!!!!

 

just an idea

dusty chose russ ortiz over dontrelle willis.

 

 

he also put mike williams on that team when he did not belong.

Like I said earlier before the selections, Dusty was going to choose players he liked from San Fran.

START MIKEY AT DH, MOVE HIM TO 3B LATER IN THE GAME

 

IT'S GENIUS!!!!!

i still love dusty's 'excuse'

 

 

its got to be the greatest i have heard this year.

i dont mind the excuse on the players votes, but the part on not seeing him is hilarious

i still love dusty's 'excuse'

 

 

its got to be the greatest i have heard this year.

" i havent seen him play"

 

what a loser, i used to actually like the guy. but now the fact that he showed america that he was just lieing to the camera. and the fact that he chose a modest kerry wood who is on his team just shows his ignorance.

 

well dusty your gonna see the phenom mop your teams a** up and down wrigley field.

Hasn't seen Dontrelle pitch yet? Well he'll get to see Dontrelle on Tuesday, and Dontrelle the game after the break. Just wait. Because if Dontrelle doesn't bring hell (which he will) I will along with the rest of the people in that stadium the day after the break :angry
