What is
Pathetics Nation?
Pathetics Nation is an Oakland A's blog. Here, there's none of that "In Billy We Trust" bullshit. And we won't try to sell you any T-shirts, either. (We don't need to--we have real jobs.) We love the A's, but we tell it like it is.

Zito Finally

Where He Belongs


Lefty packs up his satin pillows and stuffed animals and crosses the Bay to San Fag-cisco. And it has nothing to do with money. Now he'll know what it's like to have fans who are truly Asslickers!

Hell, its no loss. I like Zito's talent when he's on, but his signing with the Shitheads only shows he's not a winner. In Zito's seven years he'll have with the Shitheads, he will pitch in ZERO playoff games. Zito has gone soft and the A's don't need him

Well stated, Joe.

The thing is, now Zito can stay in his apartment in the Marina and have an even shorter commute. Zito was definitely not worth keeping, and I'm glad to see the GiantHomos pay $126M for him, but from 2000-2003, Zito was actually good. Too bad this is going to be the 2007 season, and Sabean (or whoever replaces Sabean once he gets fired) will be stuck with Zito for 7 years.

I actually have a confused friend who is a Giants fan, and he asked me what to expect from Zito. I told him to give me a call the first time Zito walks the bases loaded in the first. He'll call me in April...

As an A's fan, I am SO glad to see Zito go, and other than the Rangers or Angels, I can't think of a better place for him to go and suck ass. Four career shutouts, nine career complete games ... $18M a year? Ha! The Giants really are dumb. Zito's been my least favorite A's pitcher for a long time (since 2003, I guess). He's so overrated, and now the Giants get to eat it.

Pathetics Nation has been ridin' Zito's ass (figuratively, not literally, of course) ever since the start. In fact, it's one of the reason's we got banned from the T-shirt salesman's Tupperware Party in the first place.

Fortunately, this time, it's the GIANTS who have been BEANED AGAIN!

(And yes, I do give Billy Beane credit for NOT trying to sign Zito.)

I'll add that in last Thursday's Chronicle Zito had a thank you A's fans printed. Of course the soft spined ass pulled a pompous Giants move and put the ad in the SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE instead of the Oakland Tribune and other assorted East Bay papers where the A's fan base is.
Way to go Barry!
