C. Trent Done Smacks This NY Daily News Bitch Down, Fo' Real

Here we go with some serious metablogging: blogging about bloggers attacking other bloggers.

I just threw up.

But so you gotta love Rosecrans ("ugh"): singlehandedly infiltrating the New York Daily News blogosphere to bitch-slap some idiot trying to make a big story out of utility outfielder (op ed: and hopefully LONGSHOT to make the 25-man- sorry, C.T.'s article makes me want to root for him, but the fact is that he's been really really woeful at the plate his entire career) Bubba Crosby's innocuous comments about his tenure with the Nixon administration.

Here's how it went down:

C. Trent: "I will write an article about Bubba Crosby."

Bubba: "I'm kinda excited to be here 'cause utility outfielders get way more playing time in the NL. I say this because it is a fact well known by anyone who pays attention to major league baseball in any way, much less someone who writes about it professionally."

This schmo who writes about baseball professionally [real quote this time]: "Bubba Crosby ripped the Yankees for not giving him the opportunity to show his stuff."

C. Trent, commenting on the schmo's own blog: "Yo momma showed me HER stuff, dig?!"*

Moral of the story: C. Trent is the man we want at the front lines. Right next to the Majewster.

P.S. For all other Bubba Crosby news, you know where to get it.

*a loose translation of the following [real quote from comment section of NYDN blog]:

"in no way did bubba 'rip' torre and the yankees. he just
said it was different. he was saying in the national league a fifth outfielder
-- especially one on jerry narron's squad -- is going to get a lot more at-bats
than a fifth outfielder on an american league team.this was unused, but better
sums up the tone of the interview

"It was an honor that Joe had enough faith and trust in me
to throw me out there. In 05 I started three of the five games of the
postseason. But if an offensive situation came up and it was me or Bernie
Williams, Bernie was going to hit. I understood that role."

i didn't even see it as being an anti-yankee rant, which
some people are taking it as here. bubba said he knew his place in new york and
he enjoyed his time there and his time as a yankee, but thought his skills were
better suited to the national league"**

**an even looser multi-translation of the following (thank you Babel Fish)

"As for momma of Yo in me her raw materials, excavation? It showed!"
