    Paraphrasing BM and fsu, if we have to suffer the Kike pee pee dance, one more grotesque embarrassment won't matter.
    That much.
    Or not.
    Maybe.
    At least it's not shooting an imaginary arrow from an imaginary bow in the air.
    Or the Pagan salute.
    Come to think of it, a majority stems frm the SFags, Why is that, ya think?
    We should list the douchiest celebratory gestures that are cringeworthy.

    'A guevo' is like saying amen/yep/right on/of course/thats right/for sure and even 'i got no choice/i have to/i must/im forced to/its my duty.
    Because our will power comes from our balls. Will is the same as Bill/Quill/Guile which is the same as Bail/Baal which is your balls. Which is why William is used by kings a lot going back to ancient times all the way to the fertility gods of the levantine pantheon.
    Princes Padme Amidala has a father name Bail Organa. The father of the Amygdala which controls our emotions is the balls which control the will.


    Puto in that sense kinda means bro via 'bitch', but in the way you would call one of your friends bitch.
    Like when they ask a question and you answer playfully macho 'thats right bitch!'.
    Like how we have used the word sucker/you suck for ages without thinking of any sexual connotations but in truth it means fag just like puto does in its most literal sense.
    But like we dont use fag literally when we call someone a fag, its the same in mexican when you call a guy a puto.
    Puto can mean fag in the homosexual way too of course, but context is key.

    1 year 3 Mil + incentives. Took less money than an offer from elsewhere(potentially "significantly less").

    Ah huevo

    It's not an insult it's a form of saying fuck yeah bitches.

    More common use in Hispanics that are 1st generation born here with immigrant parents. It's just slang and depending how you use it.

    Looks like he still has some love for LAD.
    If the Nats struck out here w/Romo as well it'd solidify a " WTF off-season " for them.
    They start out @ McCutchen..nothin.
    They go after Sale..nothin.
    They give up big pieces for Eaton, everybody scratches their head ( including Harper).
    They go after Chapman..nothin.
    They go after Kenley..nothin.
    No Melancon, no Holland.
    They go for Derek Norris' bum ass over Matt Weiters/a Ramos return.
    You combine all that with the Dusty hire from last off-season..they look to be headed for dark days post 2018 when Harper probably leaves in FA..a lot of starting pitching, so maybe that'll save them

    Maybe the Nats can secure Blanton?

    This signing is contingent on the results of a physical right? I think he's gotten away with being a hunchback long enough..he is going down.
    Like Joe Frazier.

    Shit man...we should have come up with a mere 13 million more than Romo's package and signed Hammel.

    confirmation of what some thought
    could see him taking less to play [essentially] here, but significantly less?
    guess he really wants to play near home
    let's hope he doesn't disappoint his friends/family... and us

    Romo agrees to Dodgers deal. $3M plus incentives.
    He took significantly less to do LA deal.

    Sergio wants to get back at Bochy, the evil Giant Head...he puts himself in the most advantageous position with the Dodgers to do this, greater than with another team by far.
    May he fullfill the vendetta, and may we be witness to it come to fruition this season.

    more likely we witness meatballs left over the plate and an extended stay on the DL

    Ummm..... the Dodgers have checked in on Chris Carter according to Ken Rosenthal. The idea appears to be for him to play 1B vs LHP and potentially see what he could do in LF. Interesting idea...

    I just got done reading your posts on another thread, and it sure doesn't sound like you are treating poor Sergio like a valued equal...
    Yeah, come to think of it, you're probably 100% right, bro.
    Wow...bummer

    Zaidi had him in Oakland.
    I guess at some point the value is just too enticing..just as when they checked in on Bautista.
    Carter was said to be fielding offers from Japan and just basically waiting for any MLB interest.
    Adrian maybe about to get some added rest..could benefit

    • The Rays were the mystery team who submitted the highest bid for Sergio Romo’s services. Previous reports indicated that the Rays were in the mix for Romo and that the reliever declined a higher offer to stay on the west coast and sign with the Dodgers for a one-year, $3MM deal. With Romo off the board, the Rays are seemingly still in the hunt for another arm to join their bullpen.

    doesn't appear to be a fit...
    • The Dodgers checked in on free agent slugger Chris Carter, though Rosenthal has some doubts that the fit would work for either side. Carter might want too significant a salary for the Dodgers’ liking, as the team is already well over the luxury tax threshold. From Carter’s perspective, he’d likely want more playing time than L.A. could offer him as a part-time first baseman (spelling Adrian Gonzalez against lefty pitching) and receiving an occasional start in left field.

    Yeah, .224 against lefties last year. I know there were some power numbers that spruce that up a bit, but I don't think he's the answer.
