2. yeah
Gay marriage stupidity, Christian schooling. Kind of depressing.

He's about to pull it together in the 9th, though.

7. that's why it's depressing.
I really liked the guy for years before he got hurt and started talking about his politics while he recovered from Tommy John surgery. Hell of a pitcher though, yes. I hear that he'll be starting next year, whether it's with the Braves or not...

5. Yeah
What was it the ignorant homophobe said?

Gay marriage? What's next, people marrying animals?

Yeah, he's not too bright but he can throw a baseball fast. :mad:

8. They'd make a fine couple
I'd love to see them make a trip on the 7 train in NYC.

I wonder if they'd make it to Shea Stadium? :evilgrin:

17. I love his talent, and so does my fantasy baseball team...
Edited on Sat Aug-07-04 07:23 PM by VolcanoJen
... but I'm thinking of trading this fundie whackjob (he's one of my keepers) soon, on principle alone.

John Rocker met a similar fate, back in the day.

19. Has he ever come out and made any ridiculous comments?
I know he's a fundie, but I don't think he's gone "Rocker" yet. Or did I miss something?

21. Well, here's a link.
Smoltz compares gay marriage to bestiality

That's just insane.

To his credit, he's attempted to clarify his remarks since they were published. I guess that's why I haven't traded him yet. :D

22. I stand corrected
Thanks for the link - didn't see any of that at the normal sports sites I frequent.

Thanks Volcano Jen!
