For those of you not following the Milton Bradley vs. Chicago Cubs Fans Fiasco..

I highly suggest you head over to BCB and check it out. I’m sure you’ll find it just as amusing as I do.

His latest quote following tonight’s game:

“All I’m saying is I just pray the game is nine innings, so I can be out there the least amount of time as possible and go home”

Wow

THE SKIP IS LEGIT!!

That sounds like a totally reasonable thing to pray about.

There's alot of hate in that thread.

Makes most of the “discussions” here with SoonerFan seem downright civil.

The BCB board

is like a perfect representation of a stereotypical internet message board.

Flame wars constantly, mixing baseball with politics, sociology, economics, and whatever other subject brought in with impressive amounts of ignorance and close mindedness.

It’s tough to read, glad the VEB is nothing like it.
