August 19, 201412 yr *Stanton wins MVP* *Vince is still not impressed* Lol. Nah, he is doing well lately. Havent picked on him in a while.
August 19, 201412 yr Yeah, good article. Just don't read the comments section. The comments are retarded.
August 19, 201412 yr ...but he does get players to perform for him and keeps things well oiled in the clubhouse (from what I see/hear/read) I think some of us forget how much things like this are still valued by baseball writers, front office people, and players in the game today. We can argue how ridiculous traits like this are on paper, but they still mean something to those in the game, like it or not.

We can argue how ridiculous traits like this are on paper, but they still mean something to those in the game, like it or not. And it probably does have a direct relation with performance. Chemistry makes a difference, anybody on a team that's had it (especially a team that didn't) knows that.
August 19, 201412 yr Yeah, as far as the Redmond for Manager of the year. He will probably get some mention for the award, and I got no problem with that, due to the expectations for this team before the season, and the Jose injury and such. But still, just imagine if Joe Girardi had been managing the team. Just sayin.
August 19, 201412 yr former member was doing some internet tough guy stuff and Piazza31 offered to meet him at the local grocery store for fisticuffs. or something something. Fixed that for you.

August 19, 201412 yr Who was the former member? Shoot, I can't remember. He kept calling everyone kids. Something with a G? GeriatricSpike?
August 19, 201412 yr Shoot, I thought the meme was older than this website. Winn Dixie and wall mart parking lots seem to always have been the popular place for internet tough guys since forums began. Edit: by older than this website, I mean older than the meme has been popular in it. This website predates the internet.

August 19, 201412 yr I can specifically remember Winn Dixie and Wall mart as throw down locations on separate occasions. Though don't ask me where, it was pre-2005,back when I actually did forums. Now I just do here and occasionally look at information relevant forums if I find something interesting. I Think the ESPN forums had quite a few of these before their new forums ruined everything, and then they shut them down completely. So, I'm quite surprised to find that this wasn't already a big meme. Always made me laugh, and that Redmond gif is gold.
August 19, 201412 yr Walmart, winn Dixie, 7-11 and [Tropical] park. Sounds like my Friday night in High School.
August 19, 201412 yr I didn't want to be too specific on which park lol. That park might as well be on 8th street and charge $20 bucks to enter, lol.
August 19, 201412 yr Giancarlo is trending. Another artcle, this time from Keith Law, choosing him as NL MVP http://insider.espn.go.com/blog/keith-law/post?id=2761
August 19, 201412 yr he is certainly heating up at the right time. The key to just about everything is staying that way. His bat can carry this team right into the post-season and right to an MVP award... Or if his bat gets cold it could tank both, as well.
August 19, 201412 yr The key to just about everything is staying that way. His bat can carry this team right into the post-season and right to an MVP award... Or if his bat gets cold it could tank both, as well. Isn't that kinda the very definition of an MVP for better or for worse? If Stanton stays scorching hot we make the playoffs but if he tanks then we tank too. Thus his value to this team is immense, therefore the most valuable player. Period.
August 20, 201412 yr Was looking through old pics, check out this beast. His last game in Jacksonville before being called up to the bigs. (IIRC he hit 2 HR this game)

August 20, 201412 yr Not seen this before. If GS has such problems when urinating, he really ought to seek medical help.
