(regarding the death threats of Dustin Pedroia) "Dustin said something about the Oakland Coliseum...(then he says under his breath) understandable..."
So what is he talking about? What did Pedroia say about the Coliseum? From the Boston Herald:
Apparently, Pedroia will be able to go home again, although a flap generated by Pedroia calling the place “a dump” in Boston Magazine has turned ugly. Police recently arrested 47-year-old Kenneth Samuels after threats were allegedly made in a phone call to the Pedroia family tire business.
So if I understand this, Peter Gammons thinks the Coliseum is a dump. Dude, fuck you Peter Gammons. Seriously man, eat a dick. Don't talk about my home stadium. The A's faithful are allowed to call that place a dump, but you sir do not have that privilege. You senile mother fucker. Understandable? Understandable? Jesus. Also, note to ESPN: Opening a west coast studio won't stop me from believing that ESPN loves the Yankee and Red Sox dick in the ass. A studio in Los Angeles at that. Idiots. I don't condone making death threats against someone's family. Sadly, I'm not surprised because Oakland fans can be hostile. I'm more annoyed at Peter Gammons. You should really try not to express your obvious bias on air. To balance your opinion with your bias is a difficult thing to do as a sports reporter, but seriously, does anyone take Darren Sharper seriously if he picks the Cowboys to win the Super Bowl? Or when Merril Hoge picks the Steelers? It's hard to trust their opinions when team loyalty is involved.
Anyway, I'm just some fan of a small market team. I haven't been following the A's much since living here, but I just felt a fire burn inside of me when Gammons made that passive jab at the A's. I'll be home soon and I will surely get the green and gold flowing again. End rant.
