Boring

HOF Picks? Boring

HOF Pans? Worse than boring.

Any baseball discussion that involves any topic other than the Yankees, Red Sox, the Mets for laughs is pointless... and the aforementioned aren't all that interesting at best.

Really. What of any interest ever happens in the NL. The Phillies, arguably the best the NL has to offer, played in perhaps the most boring, ignored World Series of our lifetime and then played the Patsy to the Yankees in a return performance. Manny was interesting only because he played in Boston. Now, who cares if uses steroids, HGH, crack, bites the heads off lizards or not?

Why is it interesting that Jason Bay signed with the Mets. Because he's no longer with the Red Sox. Why does anyone really care that Roy Hallady signed with Philadelphia. Because the Yankees won't have to face him in the regular season.

And when the most scintillating Yankee conversation that Chad can conjure is Bret Gardner in left field, then God save us all. Think about it. Even the Yankees are exploring new frontiers of inanity. A-Rod: beyond shallow with nothing interesting to say. Jeter: might have something interesting to say but is protected by handlers and still afraid of his mom. Cano: too stoned to speak. Teixeira: too many vowels in his last name to be taken seriously and has taken bland lessons from Jeter to assure commercial value. Posada: to macho to speak. Swisher: the haircut speaks for itself. We know undertakers (Billy Nelson) that are far more interesting and affable than Cashman and any sentence that contains the word Steinbrenner...

Yo, Chad, bloody enough?
