Life is cruel, no doubt

Cannot argue.

(If you watch enough baseball, you will see that everything comes back to Kyle Farnsworth. Watch. It's true.)

What NOT to say after being traded

AP reports that outfielder, Willy Taveras has been released by the A's just eight days after he was acquired from the Reds with infielder, Adam Rosales for infielder, Aaron Miles and a player to be named later.

Ok, listen up. Here is a lesson to all ballplayers who no doubt will be traded at least once during their career.

Don't plop your stuff down in the middle of the clubhouse and say:

"The corner locker?!

Are you f@#$&! kidding me? No f@#$&! way!

I have been in the league five whole years and last year I hit .240 with one home run and 15 rbis. I am NOT accepting a corner locker next to Fautino De Los Santos!

Show some respect!

Now what are you gonna do about it?!"

Don't do that!
