MechaBlyleven saved Reggie Jackson's face from being smashed by stupid Sutcliffe

Kinda funny.  No word on if Sutcliffe was blazed again.

Best interview ever?

I'm sure douchebags will overreact and Sutcliffe will have to make an apology or some bullshit like that...

I agree. 

My favorite part of the interview is the "awkward silence" part.

Did you fuckers read my second post about his love for farting?  Forget the first one, that's fkn old.  Farting!

Awesome interview with Blyleven, who completely fucked up trivia tonight when there were two hot girls with a sign reading "today in 1977, who threw a no hitter" and he immediately came to the conclusion that they meant him but got the date wrong (it was Eck)

attabobble's post made me look up the list of all no hitters...i still can't believe that Juan Fkn Nieves threw a no hitter

He can thank Robin Yount.

This knowledge once got me a pair of Cubs tickets by answering correctly the last Brewer to throw a No hitter

Chris Bosio and Hideo Nomo threw no-hitters too (although not with the Brewers at the time).
Rollie Fingers was also part of a NoNo (also not with the Brewers).

Hideo Nomo threw his pitching out of the stretch the entire game.

I want to read this interview, anyone find a new link that works?

[fknmclane]

Link worked for me but here's the text from the interview:

Sutcliffe: You know, that happened to me one time. I wanted to kill Reggie Jackson.

Brennan: Really?

Sutcliffe: Yeah. He hit a home run off of me, and stared at it. I was hot. I was furious. I was in the dugout, and I was going to throw at him the next time he came up. And then my guy Burt Blyleven came up to me and said "Sut, he's hit 500 of those things. He's earned the right to stare at it when it leaves the park." But I was furious.

Brennan: Well, the rules are slightly different today.

Sutcliffe: Because I was going to throw at his head. I was going to throw at his face, if I could hit it! I was going to kill him if I could.

Brennan: ... stunned, awkward silence ...
