Million Dollar Body, Ten Cent Brain, aka Rant Time at TBG
Cover of The Star online this afternoon just pissed me right off:
“Yeah, there’s no real following here,” Rios told the Sun-Times during the White Sox four-day visit to Toronto that wrapped up Thursday. “There’s a small group of diehards, but it’s hockey, hockey, hockey. It’s gotten sad here. They just don’t really care.”
This, coming from a player like Rios, who, if I had to describe quickly, I would describe as a guy who didn't really care. But instead of going off on Mr. Rios, who, along with Mr. Wells sucked the excitement and loyalty out of Toronto fans over the past three seasons in a manner akin to the AGon and S.Green glory days, I will turn this over to the other Toronto Baseball Guys. So, what do you think guys -- does this put Rios in the hallowed class of hated ex-Jays, along side David Wells, Derek Bell and Manny Lee? Let's hear it! ¶ posted by Chris C. at 10:43 PM
Baseball's dead in Toronto: Former Blue Jay Alex Rios
Inside we get this friggin' gem of wisdom from perhaps the greatest waste of natural talent the Jays have ever excessively over-paid:“Yeah, there’s no real following here,” Rios told the Sun-Times during the White Sox four-day visit to Toronto that wrapped up Thursday. “There’s a small group of diehards, but it’s hockey, hockey, hockey.
