RBI favorites and dirtbags ....

[GreatScott]

If you could pick any RBI to hang out with for a day who would it be and why?  

On the flip side, of all the ballers in the RBI world who would the last you would want to chill with?

[Flood]

Hang With -- Jim Lindemann.  I would look so hot standing next to that fucking abortion.

Don't Hang With -- Cupcake Injury

[Bonny]

Kevin Mitchell

Come on guys...read the whole fuckin' question

[Darky]

I would hang out with John Kruk. He is good for buying a case of beer and showing me a good time.
I would never chill with Reggie Jackson because he big leagued me when I tried to say hello to him in Carmel one time. He is a dillhole.

[Bonny]

Sorry Curt.

Fuck Reggie. He big leagued me too when I was 9. My dad took my brother and I to a Angels-Mariners spring training game in Tempe.  Reggie didnt play that day, but halfway through the game he was sitting in the crowd about 8 rows behind us.  My dad notced he was there, and said I should go get his autograph.  

9yr old Bonny-"Mr Jackson, can I have your autograph?"  
Reggie-" No kid. Aint got time. Im busy."

From what I saw Reggie was just sitting ther watching the game.  So I get back to my seat and dad asks if I got the autograph.

Bonny Dad-"What!? What did he say? That motherfucker!

My dad spent the rest of the game looking over his shoulder giving Reggie the"Im gonna kick your ass stare".

On a happier note, I did get Gaylord Perry's autograph, and a Fleer photographer gave me a wax box of 1983's. Reggie hit .194 that season.

[Mike D.]

I would hang with Tim Burks.  He's a nice guy.

I would absolutely hate to be around Reggie.

It's funny because people died.

[TβG]

i'd like to hang with brian downing... he was my boyhood idol, and i'd hate to spend anytime with dave henderson... we still owe that guy for '86.  come to think of 1986, i'd hate to spend time with donnie moore because i think it would be a little cramped inside the box.

[TecmoGuy]

I would like to chill with Reggie Jackson, because it would be impossible.  So, that would be cool.

[ultimate7]

I would like to chill with Al Pedrique because I have a superiority complex.

[aldrete bastard]

I would hang out with Ryno so we could go beat the shit out of Palmerio for fucking his wife.
And I would never go near Santiago just because he looks like a dirty mean old man.

[I fart on R. Jackson]

I hate Reggie Jackson.  
Also, please let me explain the "Fart on Reggie Initiative".  

Hanging w/ Reggie:
The first baseball game my dad ever took me to was to go see Reggie Jackson.  It was an A's game where I saw him for the first time.  Wow!  It was a huge thing for me as a little kid to see my hero.  

Well, I got my chance to meet my hero at a bar called Bounce in NYC on Saturday night 12/4 (about 20 odd years later).  I went to say hello as people were coming by to say hi to the legend.   I was sitting 3 feet away and went over to buy my next drink and offered him a drink on me for being my hero and all.  I briefly explained that it was a big deal for me to watch him play at my first MLB game when I was like 7 years old.  The guy gave me the hand and looked over at the bouncer as if I was harassing him or something.  The bouncer came over and asked me to "leave the man alone so that he could have a drink in peace" as if I was the first fan all night to come up and say hello.  

Not only was my kindness in offering him a drink rebuffed (I was nothing but nice to the guy), but my childhood hero turned out to be a real jerk and I'm pissed off that my parents had to shell out 5 bucks for the poster of him that I had hanging in my room when I was a little kid.  

If I ever see him again, I'm going to go stand next to him, fart, and point the blame at him.  

If you see Reggie Jackson make sure to blow a fart his way, point, and blame it on him because in my opinion, the guy stinks and that's the best way to let everyone know about it.  

[Gantry]

Great story, looks like Reggie has burned many a bridge on these forums.  Must be a major league asshole, but it's impossible for me to dislike Potatoes...

[Ryno23]

I would hang out with Ryno so we could go beat the shit out of Palmerio for fucking his wife.
And I would never go near Santiago just because he looks like a dirty mean old man.

I'd love to hang out with ryno.

I'd tea bag his ex wife while he watched.  She was a looker.

I don't know If I'd fuck her, knowing that the likes of Rey "dirty" sanchez and Dave Martinez had fucked her in the past.

[Ryno23]

I'd hang out with ryno, for obvious reasons.

I'd tell sutcliffe to go fuck himself.  If not for sutcliffe, I'd have an autographed 83 fleer sandberg card.

in 1989, following the game that put the cubs into first place (aug 9, 1989), I was thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis close. . . fucking next in line.  ryno had already acknowledged my presence and was finishing up with some other fans.  Then dick head, I mean sutcliffe jumped in and practically carried sandberg back to the car.  Sut had been bothering sandberg for a good 15 mins. . . . . apparently the overgrown red headed fuck face had to take a shit or something.  

Anyway, Sandberg left, I was next in line, but i don't hold it against him.  Sutcliffe is way bigger than Ryno.  Probably coulda kicked his ass.


It's a shame Joe Girardi isn't an RBI'er.  That same night he hung out with me and my folks while we waited for the star players to come out and sign.  He was real genuine.  Wanted to know about us, where we're from etc.  Of course, he was a rookie.
