Oh man, you definitely win a few "internets" for breaking out a AA quote. So many I could use from the Horsemen and the NWA, don't know where to start, lol.

Always got a kick out of Ric Flair telling Magnum PA he should get off that motorcycle, buy himself a Mercedes and be a real man. I live by those words, and still am not a real man :(

"Magnum TA, I respect you, but how do you expect to be a champion dressing like that, this is how a champion dresses, custom made from head to toe, Woooooo!"

"My shoes cost more, then your house!"

"That's why this jacket costs $800, Tully's jacket cost $400 and I don't know what your jacket costs, I'd be ashamed to wear it"

You can't beat when Flair started talking about his wardrobe, there will never be a more entertaining interview then the horsemen back in the mid 80's.

Looks like Golf did.

Yea, you had him up there as well. Not quite Cy Young level, but definitely in the conversation.

AJ's ERA has balooned to 3.63 from being near 3 a couple of weeks back

He hasn't had a QS in his past 3 games. He pretty much hasn't had back to back bad games all year & now he's had 3 in a row.

AJ is gritty & battles BUT the pirates really need him to be dominant again. It was only 3 games ago that he was NL player of the week & was in some serious beatmode.

I think this is a concern. Is anyone else concerned?

Ray needs to work with AJ and figure out what is wrong. AJ is not keeping the ball down like he was doing before. I know ray has his hands full, but he needs to help get AJ back to himself. I hope he just doesn't think AJ will fix himself.

Burnett is currently 16-9 with a 3.43 ERA, 177 Ks, and one more start to go.

Barring a really bad start, it looks like this is a race between Dipstick and Kison.

Yep.

LOL! I didn't make you two do anything. I just offered a little guidance.

I am guessing he will not live up to the bet. Seems like the type.
