Sale! Sale! Sale!

So, the Seidler’s are looking to sell the Padres, or at least bring on new investors. Well, now this all makes a little more sense. The Stammen hire, the delay in AJ’s contract, and the complete lack of interest from the Seidlers in being a competitive and inspiring leadership group. I mean, if you saw […]

The Crowd Goes Mild

I sit here writing this because the San Diego Padres, the team I have loved since I was eight years old, has once again done a stupid fucking thing.  I sit here listening to Bon Iver (pronounced “Bon Iver”), because it’s the only music that seems to echo the feelings I have inside about this […]

Another Season, Another Scapegoat

News broke this morning that, at least for the moment, the Padres have found this season’s scapegoat for their once again lackluster (read: shitty) playoff performance: Mike Shildt. Yes, the manager. Again. Another manager. The fifth in the last six seasons, or as one might call it “The Manny Era”. Sure, they say Shildt retired, […]

Last Week In Faith: April 7-10, 2022

Life can get a little confusing at times. A regularly scheduled reminder is very convenient. So here’s a refresher of what happened during the last week in faith.

The Deadline

What a difference a day makes. Twenty-four little hours. AJ Preller and his staff made some significant changes to the 2020 Padres roster, and let’s just say it feels very good to be right. More on that in a second, but let’s address the moves first. As a fan, and as you can tell if […]

Kemp Begat Us

I know this isn’t really the time to bring it up. No one wants to feel sad or get angry when we’re all currently residents of Slam Diego, but I think it matters.  It’s important to know that sometimes it all works out, especially when this was not exactly the intention, but possibly, kind of, […]

The Tingler!

Well, I uh…sure! Jayce Tingler is the new manager for the San Diego Padres. The 73rd in team history. That’s not a real stat, but who gives a shit? As I tweeted out earlier today, we all knew this was coming. You knew as soon as you heard the name “Jayce Tingler” that he was […]

The Day-to-Day Padres Fan Must Die

You’re exhausting. You’re ridiculous. You’re a joke. Not a funny one. A sad one. A Jay Leno monologue joke. If your fandom relies on the box score of every game played then get out. If you want to stay then stop with the moronic tweets and ignorant posts that the Padres suck, or that it’s […]
