Jeff Kent will always go down as one of the biggest ass hats in MLB history. Incredibly arrogant. Average player on the Mets. Eventually ends up with SF and magically starts hitting bombs and getting 100+ RBI every year. Weird, eh? Cheating bum.
It's a "bend, don't break/do great in the first half, but let every team come back in the 3rd quarter so we either need to come back or hang on by the skin of our teeth," defense.
We're 8-3. What's the problem?
Don't be a rabble rouser.
Don't troll.
Don't piss people off for your own enjoyment.
Don't use overly suggestive language.
Don't talk polytix outside of PPP.
Wait ... I'm not giving you advice. I'm reading through all of my warnings!!
Whoops!
Reading his apology, that does not sound (read) like it was contrived, written by anyone for him or insincere. I believe him when he says it was meant to be a compliment.
