04.09.09 WHAT’S WORSE THAN A NO-DECISION? (UPDATED)
UPDATE: ESPN is reporting that the Angels’ game against Oakland scheduled for tonight has been postponed.
Getting killed in a felony hit-and-run after the game.
Angels pitcher Nick Adenhart was one of three people killed in a three-car accident in Fullerton early this morning. Adenhart pitched six innings for the Angels last night, giving up only seven hits…well, eight now, I guess.
Authorities are blaming the three-vehicle accident on a motorist in a mini-van who ran a red light at East Orangethorpe Avenue and South Lemon Street.
Authorities say the driver of the van fled the scene, was later captured and charged with felony hit-and-run.
I always thought the hit-and-run was more of a National League thing. Adenhart was 22.

oh man, that was cold blooded
Damn…that’s fucked up.
that is seriously depressing.
I thought the AL had designated hitters…
Not funny.
Terrible news. Hate to see anyone’s – no matter what they do – life cut short.
It’s no time for jokes, but those were excellent ones.
Hey, at least there wasn’t a Toonces Photoshop.
They caught the hit and run driver? Good. We have the death penalty for a reason.

You guys are horrible. This is a tragedy, and you shouldn’t exploit it.
/very, very funny, though
Marshawn Lynch wasn’t anywhere near the scene was he?

Burnsy showed me this this excerpt from a feature on the angels patchwork pitching from two days ago:
Dustin Moseley, Nick Adenhart and Shane Loux aren’t exactly the drivers Manager Mike Scioscia was planning to use in his projected early ride through April.

why is it cool to make light of someone’s death?
It’s my bad, I watched him pitch last night and I dropped Jon Garland and picked him up on my Fantasy roster…which is obviously cursed. Just an awful tragedy though.
piss on all of you

get fucked
mmmm, I personally, like to “get fucked”. For once there’s someone more indignant than me on here.
There is a difference between posting sports related satire regarding the actions of idiotic players and events that are just tragic. Along with the quality of writing going down since the new writer has taken over, obviously this person as no sense when to back off issues.
These pretzels are making me thirsty.
