    Well, that's the root cause. In 1967 our dad bought White Castle hamburgers for our family of four. It took us about four hours and a dozen bathroom stops to drive 100 miles.

    Thinking they'd had time to improve, I tried them again in 1997. No good; another two-day attack of the shits.

    Somehow or other I deluded myself into thinking things might be better in 2007, so I tried them one more time.

    Strike three, you're out. Fuck you, White Castle.

    OMG yes! I detest celebrities, by and large, already. The LAST thing I want to see is some rich-bug fucktard in the stands. Hell, many of them get in for free, while we working-class slobs have to save up to go.

    Add to that, the rich-bug snob actors who get to take batting practice with the team because, well, only because they're rich and famous. Fuck them.

    Reason No. 3,548 to hate Los Angeles sports teams.

    Brussels sprouts are awesome when other people are eating 'em.

    I had managed to completely evade any knowledge of this twat until someone here started a thread. I'm pretty good at avoiding stuff that I've decided is not worth my time. My ignorance of the Jenner/Kardashians is vast, for example.

    Raise your voice so everyone else in line can hear, and then say this:
    "I'm just here to buy a magazine, OK? What's the fucking problem?"

    Pick your spots, yes. But all Millennials are fair game.

    You're motherfucking right, fuck Tommy LaSorda.

    I get the "Fletch" reference (my favorite part of any movie I've ever seen).

    Went to a Royals game a few years ago with a friend, and got there early to seek autographs. Out of a cab steps Tommy LaSorda (it was an Oakland/Kansas City Athletics tribute day or something, and Tommy thought he was a ballplayer once).

    A group of about six guys walk up and ask politely for an autograph. He SCREAMS at us, "NO! I ONLY SIGN FOR KIDS!!!" My friend, trying to break the awkward tension, pipes up, " I was a kid once." But Tommy replies, "I DON'T CARE!!"

    I can guaran-fucking-tee you that if cameras were around, that fat-ass, cock-sucking piece of shit would probably have hugged us all with smiles everywhere. But off camera, he is the biggest piece of shit who ever lived.

    The biggest phony in pro sports, and the most overrated manager in baseball history (that Dodgers team of the 1970s should have won several world titles). No. 1 most hated sports personality of all time, and it isn't even close. He could have spent five seconds scribbling his name on a card and changed my view of him. Instead, he solidified it.

    I hope he gets his fat ass stuck in the gates of hell and has to have help getting pushed through.

    I'm gonna mark you down as a solid maybe for Tommy's tribute dinner.

    I'd third the Lasorda sentiment - but he's about 92 stories above "irk" level. I never understood why people pretended to like the guy when they knew what a fake he was. I just hated him because he was the Dodgers manager before hearing how different he treated people away from the cameras.
    And I hated him on the Baseball Bunch as well.

    He should only sign for kids, why does a grown man want an autograph from Lasorda?

    Just for Harley, who probably paid Vlad for the hit:
