Man, I still remember how many people on this board came to Swisher's defense when I tried to call him a douche back when he first signed with the White Sox. So much betrayal -- it's a painful memory. Rok -- I believe you were one of the few on my side (and on the right side of history)...

I most certainly didn't. I've always hated him too.

There was a vocal contingent defending him here. Still to this day don't understand why, but if memory serves these were the same folks who thought Brian Wilson was genuinely funny.

I wish that I believed in Fate. I wish I didn't sleep so late. I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders.

I tried to search for Swisher defenders in the archives, and I turned up nada. Is this some old discussion? The closest to taking an opposing view I could find are my admonishments that you guys pay way too much attention to the Swishers and Wilsons of the world.

Not sure but it had to be a thread started sometime around 2008-09 when he still had Sox taint on him.

It was right after he joined the White Sox, whenever that was.

I learn something new every day. I didn't realize there was time here before Slaw. I shall call these before-times BS.

That's right: if I'm not involved, it's BS.

That's an old calendar.
