Around SBN: How The Kings Beat The Coyotes: Lather, Rinse, Repeat

The Cheat's Dominion of Dereliction Must End

colintj, larry, U-God and homesickalien

Comrades, I speak to you today of a matter of the utmost urgency.  A matter that affects us all.  Indeed, a matter that wounds my black heart.  The Cheat must be overthrown.

I know this shocks some of you.  You are loyal SSSers.  The Cheat has been our fearless leader for years.  His powers were immense, his knowledge was expansive.  And his authority was unquestioned.  But, as difficult as this is, we must question it now.

The Cheat has grown weary of the duties attendant to his position as Supreme Overlord, Managing Editor, Holder of the Concubines and Commandant of the Resplendent Revolution.  Despite his neglect, he has managed to retain his grip on SSS by rewarding his minions.  He has shamelessly pandered to the geriatrics, larding their already fat bellies and intoxicating them with the wine of cloaking powers and the gin of banning authority.  He has fattened a number of ghost payrollers, including shaftr, thecip, Teahenny Penny and The Actual El Guapo (who, I might add, is now a convicted pedophile).  And he has permitted a number of unsavory elements to settle among us, including PostAllStarBreakChanges, bobpuller, the Irish and Al Yellon.

Why has The Cheat forsaken us?  Perhaps he has grown tired of the White Sox.  Perhaps the demands attendant to being a basement-dwelling college student in his 30s have proven to be too much.  Perhaps the assassination attempt organized by the traitor Grinder in Training has cowed The Cheat.  Or perhaps The Cheat's repeated bouts with butt cancer have sapped his formerly prodigious energies. I believe, however, that the foul temptress who The Cheat calls his mistress is really a Twinn agent sent to destroy us from the very top.

But the reasons do not matter.  SSS, which was once amongst the greatest of sports blogs, is now weak and preyed upon.  Without a motivated and involved leader, we have been unable to combat the threat posed by the unholy alliance struck between SoxMachine and known White Sox hater Rob Neyer.  SSS is now a second-rate blog.  And what little talent remains find themselves tempted by outside forces, which dangle in front of them promises of riches and influence.  This very day, three editors received an offer from Mark Cuban to start a new White Sox blog on his soon-to-be launched sports blog network.

Of course this offer was immediately rejected. We were once great - and we can can be great again.  But the enemies and the traitors must be purged.  Once we have removed the impediments, I believe SSS will once again thrive.  Our posters are clearly the wittiest in all of the internet.  Our contributors are clearly the most incisive in the sports blog nation.  Other blogs clearly tremble at the knowledgeable and cutting commentary produced here.  Join us now as we seize the means of blogging from the bourgeois, elitist The Cheat and let us bring about a new dawn, for ourselves and our children.

woah

Now that’s some post. Is this for real or am I getting swooshed since I’ve been neglecting my fave spot (and internetz overall)?

The side does indeed offer less intriguing things to read, but I figured you guys are just too busy and no one else is picking up the slack from the readers and posting awesome RR posts that could be fronted.

SoxMachine is great, but SSS when at its best is a great alternative. SM has great blog and every one is thankful for his time, but it usually revolves around two topics: Greg Walker and White Sox – Dodgers series pricing (ok, not really, but could not help).

So, is this for real or lar is practicing revolution speeches and decided to run this by us first?

Times you’ve griped about my writing about it: Three. Maybe four.

In fact, the only times I can recall you talking to me at all, it’s been because 1) I mentioned the Dodgers series, or 2) you thought it was great that I didn’t talk about it.

In history, religion, and political science, a purge is the removal of people who are considered undesirable by those in power from a government, from another organization, or from society as a whole. Purges can be peaceful or violent; many will end with the imprisonment or exile of those purged, but in some cases they will simply be removed from office. Restoring people who have been purged is known as rehabilitation.

I'm not going to go as far as to say that I support Lenin

But I will defend him. Except for Kronstadt- that was bullshit.

So, in defense of Lenin:

He died. And of course there are rumors that one of his death bed notes was a warning about Stalin’s lust for power.
… not that I necessarily believe that, but I do believe that he died.

I’ve found his ideas about “professional revolutionaries” and a society ruled by “the intellectual elite” quite interesting.
I don’t necessarily agree with his ideas, but I do think that they’re too intriguing to dismiss.
The one idea I will agree with him on is that there’s no such thing as a “monopoly on truth.”

Ok. I’m done defending Lenin

The Sun was worshipped on the Interneticus, under the name of SouthsidicusCheatus

and under the form of a black conical stone, which, as it was universally believed, had fallen from heaven on that sacred place.

To this protecting deity, Al-Yellon, not without some reason, ascribed his elevation to the throne. The display of superstitious gratitude was the only serious business of his reign. The triumph of the god of Emesa over all the religions of the earth, was the great object of his zeal and vanity ; and the appellation of SouthsidicusCheatus (for he presumed as pontiff and favorite to adopt that sacred name) was dearer to him than all the titles of Imperial greatness.

In a solemn procession through the streets of Bridgeport, the way was strewed with gold dust; the black stone, set in precious gems, was placed on a chariot drawn by six milk-white horses richly caparisoned. The pious emperor held the reins, and, supported by his editors, moved slowly backwards, that he might perpetually enjoy the felicity of the divine presence.

In a magnificent temple raised on the Comiskey Mount, the sacrifices of the god SouthsidicusCheatus were celebrated with every circumstance of cost and solemnity. The richest wines, the most extraordinary victims, and the rarest aromatics, were profusely consumed on his altar. Around the altar a chorus of Minnesotan damsels performed their lascivious dances to the sound of barbarian music, whilst the gravest personages of the state and army, clothed in long Phoenician tunics, officiated in the meanest functions, with affected zeal and secret indignation.

About fucking time.

This was inevitable. We all knew this day would come when larry first became editor. I am shock that the knives took this long to overtly show themselves. I must concur with this general sentiment, though. Seeing Cheat’s FB pictures of his facial hair almost made me want to hurl. The man spends as much time grooming his face as he does cashing his SBN checks.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely. However, rust never sleeps. It is better to burn out than fade away. And, Cheat, you, like your facial hair, have faded like the shine off the 2005 WS trophy. I will post heartfelt sentiment on your eulogy page but it’s time for some fresh, serious leadership.

And that foot is larry. (Although if my cloaking powers are rescinded I will burn down this site and move all 45K posts to SoxMachine. Beware, larry, cutting all ties with existing infrastructure. Time to cultivate favor and keep the Nazis running the trains.)

Speaking of revolutions and military

Shin-Soo Choo will likely be exempt from military service since he helped South Korea beat Taiwan for gold at the Asian games yesterday, according to MLB.com’s Jordan Bastian (on Twitter). As Bastian explained yesterday, able-bodied South Korean men must spend two years in the military by the end of their 30th year. There’s a way out, though; athletes receive an exemption if they win gold at the Asian games.

It was always funny to me how folks just casually kept suggesting to try and trade for Choo without knowing his status.

just watched Che, Part One
In War and Peace Tolstoy remarks that military science assumes that bigger armies with more men wield greater force.
On the other hand, only vaguely, do they recognize that during military combat the final strength of an army is also its true physical capacity multiplied by one unknown variable.
One unknown variable. This variable is none other that the spirit of the troops measured as their greater or lesser desire to fight and confront danger.
Men with the desire to fight who also understand why they are fighting regardless of who they are fighting whether under military geniuses or those of normal intelligence fighting with clubs or machine guns that fire 30 rounds a minute these men will put themselves in the best positions and so they will win.

it fits in nicely where sabermetrics falls short, imo
