Fire Steve Smith

So the Phillies are down two in the first inning tonight against the Braves, and they load the bases with one out. Aaron Rowand strikes out. Next batter Jayson Werth smokes a one-hopper to the right fielder. Now, with a 3-2 count and the bases loaded and two out, all runners are moving before contact.

Jimmy Rollins is on third and scores easily. Pat Burrell, whom announcer Joe Morgan said, inexplicably, "can run" is sent by stupid idiot awful worst third base coach EVER Steve Smith. Burrell is freaking toast and the Braves end the inning, up one.

Steve Smith sucks. Joe Morgan is an eeeeeeeeediot for saying Burrell -- who doesn't run like a statue, he is a statue -- has wheels. And Old Man Snap is pissed he's watching the Phillies on a Sunday night when he swears he will *not* get his hopes up about this team this year.

There. We're never one to shy away from making an actual point in these here parts.
