He’s not that into you

It’s time for Seattle fans to let Adam Jones go – the budding star doesn’t love you anymore.

Reading this makes me happy. Adam Jones says all the right things.

We really, really, really need to vote him into the all-star game

All of us spend hours on our computers reading random O’s shit – it won’t kill us to vote 25 times.

My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver

I don’t have any more email addresses.

Actually, its kind of surprising how long it takes to vote 25 times

It’s that damn code word that you have to keep entering in.

I find you can sort of zone out and get it done relatively quickly.

I think every 25 votes took around 10 minutes. which is really annoying if you think about it, but whatever.

Wow.

That article is totally birdland. Also, +1 for the Scott Spiezio reference!

Who the hell is going to be my favorite player!?

I love this guy. Someone needs to pick for me, because i’m stuck.

That is of course unless one of the other players in the trade – right-handed pitcher Chris Tillman, a top pitching prospect for the Orioles – doesn’t also become a star. Then it may be referred to "the Jones-Tillman trade."

Right now, Mariners fans might as well call it "the worst trade in franchise history."

True dat.

because I dont really see the need for it to, but just imagine is Buh-Dard comes back to B’more next year. He’s already talked about how he treasured his time in Baltimore and misses it or something to that effect right? THAT would make it the most 1 sided trade ever. EVER.

Babe Ruth for "No, No, Nanette"

Yeah, the details aren’t that simple, but that was still a whopper.

technically

that wasnt a trade, although I guess even more technically they traded Ruth for money, so it kinda was.

Jonesy says all the right things

I really like the guy’s attitude and the fact that he seems to be still grounded with a pretty clear head. (Again, he’s like Eric Davis).

But do you really believe the talk about loving Baltimore and wanting to play here his entire career? At the very least he understands PR. I want to believe, but this is professional sports. It’s not like fans haven’t heard this before.

Please be for real Adam.

So, think about it...

He is that good at saying exactly what we want to hear, just the way you want to hear it…and he’s a young, good looking, professional athlete. The amount of ass that young man gets must truly beyond belief. I mean, positively EPIC.

It may go without saying at this point in the post, but the interview made me clap my hands and squee like a 12 yr old who just got a Jonas brothers poster.

He's making it up to all the lonely girls out there

since Nick got hitched. Although Adam is way more appealing. Nick is gorgeous and athletic but actually seems pretty boring.

Please get this guy

into the all star lineup. I will be taking a holiday, and waking up at 3:30 in the morning to see this.

Does anyone else think that Brian Bass deserves a look as well?
