Coalition of the Darkside: Goose on the Loose

Goose on the Loose

No surprise, Gossage is ticked he didn't make the Hall, and is just as confused as anyone else as to how the numbskull baseball writers decide who deserves to get in. But in this interview with NY Postie Kevin Kernan he saves the real scorn for Jim Rice--again--not making the grade:

As for Rice, Gossage said it was a "joke" that Kirby Puckett was a first-ballot Hall of Famer while Rice is now 0-for-12 in Hall of Fame voting. "If Jim Rice had played in the Metrodome, he would have torn the place down, and that's nothing against Kirby Puckett, that's just the way it is," Gossage said.

He chastised the writers for being dolts who don't realize the differences in the way today's game is played, in the process unloading a high hard one at King Rhoid Bonds's juiced-swelled status:

"It [ticks] me off to say Barry Bonds is the greatest hitter. He's playing in a wussy era. The game is soft. You never get thrown at today. Last thing a hitter has to worry about today is getting hit. The first thing Hank Aaron had to worry about is: Am I going to survive this at-bat because I'm black."

(When I read that, I thought, "Thurman is laughing his ass off up in Heaven")

C'mon, Goose, tell me what you really think!

I can think of only a few things I'd rather do than sitting in a bar with the Goose and tippin' a few back.
