If Dubya were a relief pitcher
By He would be Todd Jones, i.e., he would
(1) Inexplicably be handed a series of very important high-paying jobs; where he would
(2) Suck at them; yet
(3) Continue to get promoted; thereby destroying
(4) The United States of America/The Detroit Tigers’ season.
Actually the Todd Jones Situation (and wouldn’t that be a good name for a band?) is even less defensible than the Bush presidency. At least Bush doesn’t have an ERA or a K/BB ratio.
[Edit: I now see there are implied references to the topic of How Much Todd Jones Sucks in the Pirate Booty thread, where it’s conceded he’s not an “elite” (LOL!!!!) reliever. The guy has had one good season in the last eight years! He has an adjusted ERA of 84! He’s not even an average relief pitcher let alone an average closer! He’s being paid $7 million this season by a team with a $133 million payroll! Alright doctor I’ll stop now]
