The unthinkable?

Let me state for the record that it's my view the deadline for Ryan Zimmerman's contract extension...is Opening Day. NOT this Saturday.
Having said that...
Here is my message to the Lerners and Mike Rizzo: GET THIS FUCKER DONE, NOW!! Just the thought of trading Zim makes me want to puke.
WHY that is being floated is a mystery to me (not to mention Nats fans altogether). There's no way in hell I picture Zim wearing a Mets uniform...just as Mets fans can't fathom David Wright wearing a curly "W" cap.
(Am I right, Mike?)
And you all thought the Albert Pujols situation last year was a fluke...or Prince Fielder, for that matter. We're about to live it here in Nats Town, so please don't laugh at us.
Now if you'll all excuse me, I need to throw up...

Is this called "covering your ass", Rizzo?

http://www.natsinsider.com/2012/01/rizzo-on-fielder-negotiations.html Mike Rizzo (via Nats Insider), perhaps feeding the bullshit machine JUST a bit too much.
At any rate, his explanation of why Prince Fielder got away from the Nats--while introducing Gio Gonzalez to the media.
All in all, I still point out we need a PERMANENT answer @ 1B. Care to address THAT, Rizzo?

Stick to the plan...?

http://www.natsinsider.com/2012/01/sticking-to-their-plan.html All right, so we DIDN'T get Prince Fielder. What's "Plan B"?
Maybe after reading this (from Nats Insider), you'll know more than I do...or for that matter, the Nats front office.
Either way, I still point out we need a LONG TERM 1B!! Does anyone hear me, or am I pissing in the wind??

SHAFTED, yet AGAIN!!

How else to describe the collective scream of Nationals fans, on learning Prince Fielder won't be wearing a curly "W" on his head?
Instead, he'll be in...Detroit? Tis the case, I'm afraid. 9 yrs/$234 mix, is the deal.
So he goes "home", to where his old man Cecil made HIS name. First Mark Texiera, and now this. WHY are we treated like shit by big-name players? I ask you.
(At least the saving grace in this, is that it AIN'T the Marlins...)
So now we STILL need a 1B, cause Adam LaRoche AIN'T the long-term answer. As much as Michael Morse did yeoman work last year...he belongs in LF.
Well, there's the Gio Gonzalez press conference tomorrow to keep me happy...lol
