Around SBN: Dana White Announces Koscheck vs. Hendricks for UFC on FOX

from an Angel fan


First of all, I have great respect for the Red Sox Organaztion. I fell short of my dream of playing in the big leagues, but If I did, I always wanted to be an Angel, or a red Sox, because I love Fenway Park. I visted Fenway in the early 90's and watched two games.  Loved being in that stadium, and hope to make another trip.

As for the series, I do not think the Angels hit the ball really well. We just had some timely hits, and had a good inning or two in each game. But, it was not like we hit the cover off the ball. Vladdy, looked awful at the plate, slow swing, cant get around on some pitches and cant not even run the bases. 

 

Three players  was possessed to win the series, Tori Hunter, Jared Weaved and John Lackey. As you know, loosing Adenhart, was so draining mentally this year too all fans and players.  I thought it was interesting today we were down to our last strike several times. This, where in 1986, I was in 7th grade we were one strike away from the World Series.  That broke my heart. I also went to school with Donnie Moore's daughter and was at the house several times. I ended up coaching Donnie Jr. in basetball when he was in high school.

 

Anyways, I do not want to put down your franchise, it is a great franchise. But, I am so happy, to finally have the Angels beat Boston.  Since 1986, I as a fan has been haunted by Boston. I do not think as mentioned we hit the ball great, but Pitching from Lackey and Weaver, Hunter and Aberu was the difference. Also, I thought we had the best club in the majors last year, but lost to the Sox and that hurt. 

In closing, I am not a Scoscia fan, I think francona is a very good manager. I can go on and on how Soscia over manages, but I wont.  The Sox will rebound and pick up some key free agents, hopefully not Lackey or Figgins, but I see this loss motivating the front office, and you will have a 100 win team next year.  As for me, I will sleep very well tonight, but not for long, as I see the Yankees beating us finally, but I hope I am wrong.

While I can respect the sincerity of your post, I cannot see how you allowed yourself to post this garbage. If you’re going to associate yourself with and represent the Angels fanbase, please learn to spell and use proper grammar. It’s pathetic to see this type of blogging irresponsibility. Put your post into a word document and hit spell check. Have someone look it over for you. In order to make an intelligent and well formulated statement, you need to present it as such.

It affects the entire meaning of the sentence, genius.

Besides, there’s a spell check BUILT INTO the post editor now. It’s really not that difficult to click one button, is it? You manage to find the POST button pretty easily, so I’m going to assume you can do the “grown up” thing and have the computer check your work for you.

You're no true Angels Fan

In addition, it just shows me that you’re not a true Angels fan. No Angel fan, in their right mind, would ever right them off to the Yankees. Not even a single pitch has been made. You are probably the same “Fly By Night” fan that wrote off the Halos when you found out we would be playing Boston. Stating that you went to school (7th grade) with Donnie Moore’s daughter or coaching Donnie Jr. does not remotely make you an Angels fan. By the sound of it….you’re nothing more than a band wagon jumper and you probably bought a Phillies cap in November 2008. If you’re going to back a team…back them to the end and then if they lose….continue to back them. Never surrender….never!!!!

This guy used to troll HH

I think he’s been shouted down enough that he isn’t littering the place with his kamikaze punctuation everywhere. Sorry he became your problem.

Meet your new village idiot.

This guy was laughed and howled off Halos Heaven for his ridiculous fanposts. I am shocked to find from this writing he is as old as he says he is. I swear I thought he was a seventeen year old high school dropout.
