View Full Version : Rob Dibble is an A-hole-That's My Opinion

Had the unfortunate occasion to hear that arrogant, defense lawyer for steroid abusers, former MLB pitcher Rob Dibble shit all over R&F's show this week. This is the ultimate baseball  apologist,  and good 'ol boy for current and former major league players. When Mr. B legitimately challenged this former bulemic, drug abuser,  (Dibble's words on his own show XM175-and it did make him a bad person!), asking Dibble how steroids had tainted the record books by allowing an unfair advantage to current hitters, Dibble spewed back, "That's your opinion". OOOH, what a piercing, witty rejoinder-brilliant. Yeah, that was Mr. B's opinion, and  just about everybody else that has a brain and follows baseball, douche bag. I assume the reason why they that had this hick on the show was to hype XM 175. If that's the case, what are you gonna do? Get Buck Martinez? If Black Earl needs a more interesting, knowledgable, balanced,  baseball mind, get Bert Sugar. Yeah, boxing's Bert Sugar.  If you think this guy knows boxing, wait till you hear him talk baseball. Not only funny, but extremely interesting. Just a suggestion...

The whole steroids are ruining baseball bit was made up by the media who don't actually like baseball and know nothing about it so they just look for scandal to dig up or create so they can have a tizzy about it like some fancy new york gossip columnist getting her hair done and reading cosmopolitan in a predominently gay staffed 5th ave beauty parlor while business men in suits walk by on the sidewalk outside carrying briefcases and talk on their headset telephones while dodging the homeless beggars and thinking about whether or not they should go to the hamptons this weekend or maybe just stay home sit on the couch and chill out on the couch and watch a nice baseball game on tv and enjoy the greatest game ever created without the slightest concern about whether the players are using drugs or maybe ruining the game and threatening the sacred records of an institution that former red sox pitcher bill lee once described as america's belly button so if not everyone is up in arms about steroids I hope this post cleared up the situation for you.

I like Dibble...he's not afraid to come up with an opinion thats "outside of the box"...for example, his pick of the Brewers as a team that's going to make noise this year...

And no, I'm not just saying that because i've been saying "look out for the Brewers" since last year....

The Brewers used to have the best "gimmick" in Baseball. Everytime someone would hit a homerun a guy would get dunked in a stein of beer. Does that still happen?

I love baseball and I could give a shit about the " sanctity " of those records. As a previous poster stated the " Golden Era " of this game has its own demons. For a long time the game was played by fat old white guys. Who's to say the BlackSox scandal wasnt more widespread ? Who's to say Babe Ruth wasn't just a gimmick and there was an added incentive to baseball and all teams to maybe groove him a nice pitch so that he could hit a homerun ? Hulk Hogan style. While that sounds like a conspiracy it does have some plausability. Lets investigate the game from Day 1 and go forward.Nobody wants to say it, or choose to belive it, but if Bonds was white this outrage wouldnt be nearly as bad.Where are the needles being thrown at Giamibi and Scheffield ?Is it because they are Yankees they get a pass ?Giambi wasnt only a user he was a squealer too.

Giambi and Sheffield aren't closing in on Ruth and AaronBy the way, I don't care if they use steroids.Baseball is the most difficult sport.There is no proof that steroids help you hit the ball farther.

In fact the whole steroids fiasco we mere mortals continue to espouse as 2000's version of the little red dot that major leaguers in the 60's and 70's would imbibe, has in fact a more insidious and yes detrimental effect on our national pasttime that you like the fancy schmancy yenta resting her massive toukas in a NYC beauty (and I say beauty in an ironic, imbued, skewed and probably lewd twist), salon refuse to accept as the absolute reality of what is transpiring in dugouts not only in major league towns, but in Richmond, Mudville, and every other one horse, hayseed, single , double and triple A team throughout this great country I like to call the USA, and as a result sir, your baseless, reification of the actual reality of what is transpiring would make one believe that you sir, may be on the juice, (colloquial term for anabolic steroids for all of our non-baseball readers), and if not the juice, I contend sir, with absolute certatinty that you must partake in either cannabis, alcohol, or perhaps a  mind expanding alternative, that being LSD, and now sir, in all candor, I do believe that this in fact does clear up this dilemma not only for moi, monsiuer, but for all the other rabid fans of Abner Doubleday's lovely pasttime that we call "baseball", and in fact I do now own the longest run on sentence, and do own the higher ground in this ever evolving story; good day to you sir.....

Actually, Joe makes a good point here, and it relates to something no one is really talking about, namely, the banning of amphetamines from the game...

Guys have been taking "greenies" for years....What's going to be the effect as the season wears on and on and on and on? I remember Dibble making the argument that "well, if you can't get up for a baseball game....." which in a sense is true, if you're only pitching every fifth day, but for regular, everyday guys, its going to be tough to keep an edge as far as being able to stay together without a tremendous amount of rest

I think that depth in terms of players on your bench is now more important than ever...

Unfortunately, in my opinion, he has lost his sense of humor over at XM 175. He used to be wacky, offbeat, and fanatastic at telling old baseball stories. Now he is too serious (It's baseball, for god sakes), and he spends to much time covering the players' asses when they screw up. One more thing: his thinking "out of the box" to me is merely a device to come off as a baseball maverick. I hope R&F never have him on again and Go terps (class of '76)....

It was Alexander Cartwright not Abner Doubleday who first laid out the rules of baseball following the civil war in which Cartwright served as an officer and as such he was accostumed to wielding the authority nessicary to take charge of a buch of rambunctious youths cavorting in a cow pasture and orginize them into teams and set down rules to govern their actions in a way that would have them behave in a manner congruent to a regimented display of physical prowess rather than a bunch people aimlessly wandering about a meadow with no purpose and no motivation so what was once a random series of disconnected actions only peripherally connected to a competition with no clearly defined purpose or purposes became a game that was so beautiful and so engrossing to play and to watch it soon began to sweep this war weary nation causing teams and leagues to pop up all over this land and also songs and stories were written and sung and read and bets were made beer was drunk hot dogs were eaten bands were playing and people were singing and players were playing and managers were managing and time went on and records were established and subsequently broken and re-broken and the game kept growing and despite various scandals from time to time basesball just keeps rolling along because there is something so basic and so humanly satisfying about hitting a ball with a bat that it will always be with us regardless of how much social mores and technoligy changes baseball remains the same and my friends in these troubled times that is very comforting indeed.

Okay, I give up, you win. You are the king of the run on sentence, my liege....Or are you? If truth be told, the actual origin of baseball can traced to Alexander the Great in the year 312 where a young Alexander who was affectionately referred to as "Mookie" (look it up-how ironic),  picked up a rather massive femur bone and skull, and commenced to whack the skull approximately 300 feet over the Roman Colosium walls and this in turn captured the imagination not only of his immediate peer group, but people of all ages which in turn eventually catapulted him to great heights in history as one of the most relentless, feared, infamous conquerers of all time and as if this doesn't ring of absolute irony that what we refer to as present day baseball would have such a violent and rather disturbing beginning, much like the disturbing atmospere pandemic in all baseball parks throughout our great land today, with the only saving grace being that we the baseball fan continue to support our national pastime despite  all of the warts and brown stains that develop, fester, and eventually dry up, much like a herpes simplex 2 sore, because what we have found out, despite the steroids, the Pete Rose scandal, the Black Sox scandal, and  the fact that Sandy Koufax may or may not subscribe to Men's Health magazine for the pictures, is that BASEBALL IS INVULNERABLE to everything and anything that stands in its way, including that wig wearing, double talking, used car salesman they call commisioner by the name of Bud "Cadillac" Selig and every other yahoo, be it Dibble, Dabble, or Scrabble, and this I contend, is why baseball is and will always be a tonic for the masses on every breezy, dark, summer night- touche'....

The fact that baseball has been tainted or not could make a shit to me, but let me say that I heard the interview with Dibble(or whatever is name was) and he was an asshole either way.He responded like a baby(he would probably be too tough to eat)  he got all defensive instead of just saying the obvious that some athletes in ALL sports are gonna be guilty of doing illegal drugs.The media is all over baseball like it is hip or something to hate basball, when every other sport, especailly football is covered in athletic performance enhancing drugs.  Dibble is a dick!  A typical fuking jock who i am glad Ron exposed him for the piece of shit that he is.  FUCK HIM!!!

to me, Bonds breaking the Home Run record is Bullshit. He might not be juiced up right now, but he was when he hit most of those HRs. We all know it. Sorry but its true. If he was to do it, with natural ability, then I am all for it. The Babe did it without even trying, and drinking everynight. Marris did it without the beer. Aaron broke the overall HR record with nothing but hardwork and talent, two things Bonds will never have.

As for Dibs, great comeback "thats your opinion." I wonder if that is how he does it on his show. Dibs is an ass, and that is my opinion.

Rob Dibble, much like Joe Morgan, is a sub-par analyst and at times
painful to listen to.  I'm willing to overlook it, though, because
both of them won championships for Cincinnati.Go Reds!

I could give 2 shits if baseball closed down tomorrow or ran on another million years, I just thought that guy was a fucking bad guest.  He got REAL defensive when Ron  just brought up the Steriods thing and left mad.  All Ron was trying to do was move the dicussion along to other important stories of the day in baseball.  You can act like the Steriods thing isn't that big a deal, but it is, stupid.Fuck you buddy.  You wanna come on a TALK show then not talk about the thing ruining your fucking sacred sport?  Fuck you and baseball then asshole.
