2015 Pittsburgh Pirates Thread

Postby **Craig** » Sun Mar 29, 2015 1:52 pm

I will be more active here until rocco returns. I didnt realize people actually listened to anything he said.
I'm not the biggest Rocco fan but from reading the thread it's obvious they listen to him far more than you.

Looking forward to opening day. Lets Go Bucs!

I dont pretend to know what im talking about with regards to the pirates, but hes not even on the list of people id ask about something pirate related. It just seems like because 1/3 posts in the thread is from him, that apparently means he knows something.

I like rocco

Theres a difference between discussing the game and the crap he pulled. You couldn't have a different opinion in there without him digging up some sabermetric fangraph to prove the person wrong. It's perfectly fine for him to criticize Pedro after every single pitch he doesn't put into the river, but say something about a bad play Cutch made and you're gonna hear about every game for the next week. I didn't always participate in the thread, but it was nice to read through and see what other people are saying and thought...until you see

something something El Blimpo doesn't care
something something El Blimpo decided to care there
something something Nutting cares about winning and Rooney doesn't
something something Hurdles so stupid I bet he bats Melancon lead off tonight

night after night after night.

Locke will blow up soon enough. If he doesn't, great!

Postby **FreeCandy44** » Mon Mar 30, 2015 4:17 pm

Is this maybe a new Jeff Locke?

All that Rocco stuff is just his schtick... It's one of those things you dont miss til its gone

Actual content is not at the level of Troy and others like Leopard thats for sure

it will also be funny whenever he stops trying to make us wait and reads all the feedback on himself.

I for one am excited for the revival of Rocco vs. PBP

Postby **FreeCandy44** » Mon Mar 30, 2015 4:28 pm

Rocco is cool in my book.

Postby **Dickie Dunn** » Mon Mar 30, 2015 4:34 pm

I like Rocco. I don't like Jeff Locke.

I know that it's just spring but Pedro is looking respectable so far, probably because most games are during the day.

That beard is freaky looking though.

I like Rocco....maybe im the minority?

I liked when he yelled at me when I discussed college realignment.

I hope he comes over here.

And LETS GO BUCS. Can't wait for opening day. One week away. One of my favorite days of the year.

Just saw that The Jaff strained his calf yesterday. Guess that final roster spot is going to Lambo by default.

I think baseball needs more mustaches, especially on pitchers and utility infielders. Guys like Eckersley and...Jeff Reboulet know what I'm talking about.

Do you go to opening day now that you're out of public accounting?

Depends. It depends what workday it is for closing. This year I should be able to.

Nice. Opening Day, March Madness, The Masters and Spring Training would be the trips I'd really like to take but have to wait til I'm 62

Picking Locke over Worley is dumb.
