John McLaren Is Pretty Cool
According to The Seattle Times, Mariners manager John McLaren is doing his best to prove that anyone nicknamed Johnny Mac is undeniably awesome.
"When he was coaching in Toronto, McLaren said, the Blue Jays once brought a stripper to the clubhouse during a slump.
'It got mixed reviews," he said. "Some of the guys that are pretty close to the Lord weren't too happy.'"
Could he have referred to the guys who were "close to the Lord" with any more disdain?
Update: I had no idea that Stoeten's mom was still working in the late eighties.


9 rational and reasonable comments:
Anyone who says "close to the Lord" with disdain is fuckin' cool in my books. :)
I am sure he could've said "guys that are close to the Lord" with a lot more disdain, which would've been pretty tasteless.
hire this man
He'll probably be available soon enough.
I don't know why this guy would be fired. I just checked wikipedia, and his managerial record this year is an extremely impressive 66 wins against only 34 losses. This apparently computes to a .346 winning percentage, which tells me that a .346 winning percentage is a whole lot better than I used to think.

Well, ya can't really blame 'em now can you?

Young guys, hot girls, what can make you stumble and then rip that bad boy off and spend the rest of your life sounding like Mickey Mouse?
There was a lot at stake there for them--like the ability to call their shot without taking their hands off the bat.

Perhaps they had a case of sexual tension.
