I've actually met Larry when I lived in Macon, GA.   He's a complete total assclown...just like his best friend Cletus T. Judd. 

Fuck Larry.

Astros pitcher arrested in wedding reception melee

HOUSTON (AP)—Astros pitcher Brandon Backe was among 10 people arrested during a brawl with police at a weekend wedding reception in a Galveston hotel bar.

The bride’s father, 19-year-old brother and a FEMA coordinator were also arrested Sunday at the hotel, a command center for emergency workers after Hurricane Ike went through Galveston Island on Sept. 13.

Police spokesman Capt. Walter Braun said an internal affairs investigation has been launched.

The 30-year-old Backe, a member of the wedding party, ignored police orders to back away from the fight, and struggled with officers who attempted to handcuff him, according to police reports.

One officer said he hit Backe twice in the face before handcuffing him. Both the officer and Backe sustained minor injuries during the fight, according to the police report.

“We are aware of an incident involving Brandon. We have spoken with him regarding his version of the event. Since this is a legal matter, any further comment on our part would be inappropriate,” Astros spokesman Jimmy Stanton said in a statement.

Backe was charged with interfering with a police officer and resisting arrest, said Joel H. Bennett, Galveston County assistant criminal district attorney. Both charges are misdemeanors. He was released on $1,500 bond.

Backe, a Galveston native, joined the Astros in 2004 after two seasons with Tampa Bay.

Chipper Jones is a great American.

Chipper Jones is a great American. 

Maybe, but he's a total assclown.

Who will the Cub's start in game one of the World Series?

[Tiger Six]

Maybe, but he's a total assclown.

Along the lines of Boo Weekley or an assclown of a different color?

By the way, I have met Chipper also and he was not a bad sort.

We agree on Cletus T. Judd.

Maybe, but I met Larry only once, being that he and I don't hang out, and his first, one and only impression left with me was one of arrogance and asshattery.   All he talked about was himself.  It was embarrassing to listen too.   HAHA....Cletus was just being a dicksmack and was dressed like a fat wannabe NBA player.   He looked like a fucking clown.

i'm taking the phillies in 5. 

i'll give myself some kudos for this call. 

i didn't think the rays would be this comfortable through the 1st 4 games of the alcs.

does anyone think the red sox can overcome and take it?

i think they win tonight with dice k on the mound.

[Thrilla]

i think they win tonight with dice k on the mound.

Yet another great call and prediction, oh swami of real and fantasy baseball.  But it wasn't because of Dice K.  It's because the BoSox and Terry Francona are the best team/manager in MLB history with the comeback.  The Rays will seal the deal tomorrow though at home.

[Rancid Milk]

Well, it took them an extra game, but the Rays got it done...good for them.

I'm sure Cubs fans have got to be beside themselves...with the Rays making the World Series, that makes all four of the '90s expansion teams (Marlins, Rockies, Diamondbacks and (Devil) Rays) that have gotten there and the loyal Cubbie faithful haven't been to one since 1945.

I'll flag myself 15 yards for unnecessary roughness...

What's worse:  being a Cubs fan or an Auburn fan?

Hype, hype, hype....Disappointment.

Discuss.
