Earl Weaver on the Orioles

Everyone's favorite interview with Earl Weaver, taken out of context.

Camden Chat:  Luis Hernandez was picked off to end the 10th inning of today's game, and that's just the latest in a long string of baserunning gaffes for the Orioles. How do you feel about Trembley's aggressive strategy on the basepaths?

Earl Weaver:  For Christ's sake. You get fucking god dammed little fleas on the fucking bases, getting picked off trying to steal, getting thrown out, taking runs away from you.

You get them big cock suckers that can hit the fucking ball out of the ball park, and you can't make any god damned mistakes.

Camden Chat:  The Orioles have struggled to score runs lately, and have lost 5 in a row despite some very good starting pitching performances. How much of this blame should fall on hitting coach Terry Crowley?

Earl Weaver:  Well, Terry, Terry Crowley's lucky he's in fucking baseball for Christ sake. So if this cocksucker would mind his own business and let me manage the fucking team we'd be a lot better off.

I couldn't have said it better myself.
