Chimpy considering job as MLB Commish after presidency
http://www.newsday.com/sports/baseball/ny-spflash174222079apr17,0,4494467.column

if he gets the job, I'm never watching another MLB game again.

High school games and collegiate will be good enough for me.

2. That is what he should have been striving for all along
He could feel important, yet, not hold any real power.......

3. How does a dumb fuck like this get to be anything?
I guess fucking up the world isn't enough, if you haven't also fucked up baseball.

Everything this guys touches turns to shit. Why would anyone hire him to do anything?

4. No, no, this is perfect!
Since Nixon turned down the job, it's only fitting that AWOL should have it.

11. I never was a baseball fan
maybe he'll run the MLB into the ground like he has our country.

Doesn't it make you happy that one day he won't live in the WH and we can start rebuilding the country?

16. As a huge baseball fan, I hope he gets it.
Just as long as he takes it NOW and gets the hell out of the White House.

17. I wonder if he will have to work @ that job?
Sure as hell hasn't busted a sweat in the one he now holds thanks to
a massive criminal effort and con job.

The man is a stuttering bumpkin who if put into any sort of semi wild
to wild environment would be toast in 48 hours. Put him @ 8,000 ft in the
mountains in the Bob Marshall area in Montana. The man would puncture a
lung setting up his tent.

MLB look out!
