Lolback of the week. Though for eight innings of yesterday's game, it looked likely it would be a rather more depressing one - Gloomback of the Week? Fortunately, you were saved from that... Onwards to LA!

Looks like

Adam Dunn employs the old Southwest method of boarding: jailhouse blitz the ticket attendant.

I love love love the piggy back ride

Seriously, it made me full of glee. I don’t know why people didn’t like Dunn. He looks like such a happy person and the team loves him. :) (Obviously!)

What a crazy random happenstance!

Asking over at Red Reporter

This answer seemed to sum it up pretty well:

Because we are idiots

He is a very likeable guy, a great teammate, and never failed to provide an amusing quote or story to the press. But this is the town of Pete Rose, and if you aren’t a scrappy hustler, then you’re trash. People here didn’t like his strikeouts, they were put off by his defense, and were upset that he didn’t show improvement as a player (never mind penciling him in for 40 home runs, 100 RBI, 100 runs, and 100 walks every year). They wanted him to be Albert Pujols, and couldn’t wrap their minds around the fact that while his batting average was really low, his OBP was really high.

I said their reporters would love Eric Byrnes, so maybe we can work out a trade.

KISHI

WHO ARE YOU TALKING TO HERE?

I didn’t blink when I showed my TV.

What a crazy random happenstance!

I'm just saying the guy's middle name is Hustle

Besides, I’m like 40 miles away from you. I’m relatively sure that you can’t throw your TV that far, and pretty sure that, even if you could, it wouldn’t be with much accuracy.

I think

you’re underestimating her inhuman strength in TV-related activities.

What he said!

Well, I’m depending on a lack of accuracy, really.

Besides,

even 40 miles… you can hide out down here if you need to. That’s like 120 miles from Scottsdale.

Any news from the FO yet

as to whether they might make a serious effort to re-sign Dunn? Or are we REALLY just screwed by the Byrnes contract? Shoewizard??
