    Attention! Eric Chavez is a little bitch

    wah wah wah

    Oakland A's defend frolic New York Yankees' Eric Chavez calls 'high schoolish' - ESPN New York

    NEW YORK -- New York Yankees third baseman Eric Chavez criticized the Oakland Athletics for excessive celebration after they hit three home runs in the top of the 13th inning of Saturday's game, but the A's felt that they were well within their rights to do so.

    Chavez told the New York Post that Oakland's "orchestrated clapping, cheering celebration" was "high schoolish" and "pretty unprofessional." I thought it was distasteful," Chavez said. "That's not cool. That's not how you play the game. I am all for having fun, but that crossed the line. It is all about being humble."
    WTF? Hey, post-season choker and thief of Oakland Athletics' money (riding the pine with injuries the last few years of his massive contract), your team won the game. The A's blew the 9 - 5 lead they had in the 13th inning. Shouldn't you be talking about how your team won? And not how the other team cheered when they teed off on Freddy "I should have retired a few years ago" Garcia? They're a young team and have 17 rookies. OMG! They cheered and clapped. How unprofessional. Not like A-Rod, Swish, and Cano arguing with the ump after each time they struck-out today. No, that's quite professional. A-Rod even was overheard saying something to the effect of "It's OK to tell me you screwed up" to the umpire. Professionalism at its finest.

    Chokvez, just worry about yourself. I guess he forgot what it was like to be on a young A's team.

    I always hate it when people whine about stuff like that.

    Hey Eric, you're playing a game for a living. Just because you get paid millions of dollars to do it doesn't mean it's not still supposed to be fun or that people are supposed to be robots playing it.

    Cheering, orchestrated or otherwise, is part of the game.

    Chavez is pissed that if he jumped and cheered for something, he'd get hurt.

    Again.

    Well, hopefully the Rays will never sign him. What a Debby Downer he would be on the themed road trips. I prefer guys like my Mr Zobrist over there

    <<<<<<< into the spirit of "getting wiggy with it!"

    Keep on clapping, Oakland A's - SweetSpot Blog - ESPN

    I re-watched the inning on the YES network broadcast and didn't see what Chavez was referring to, but here's my take: Who cares?

    The last thing baseball needs to crack down on are players celebrating and showing emotion. There is already too much of an old-school, "don't show up the other team" mentality in the sport. Do we want to see MLB turn into the No Fun League? No.
    Right on.
