Pathetics Nation :: The Sane Alternative to Athletics Nation: August 2009

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.

Pathetics Nation
Fun Fact

Sad but true: The T-shirt salesman who runs Athletics Nation also runs fan websites for the Los Angeles Angels, the Texas Rangers, the Seattle Mariners, and even the San Francisco Giants--all teams that REAL A's fans hate with a passion. .

So long, sucker

Rockies sign Giambi to a minor-league contract. Now Juicy Jason will have a new explanation for when he's hitting 10 home runs a week: "It's the water — and a whole lot more."

Pathetic Glossary
The AAA's: What we call the A's when they play like a bunch of chumps and lose. Beano: Billy Beane, the AAA's General Manager, a lifetime .219 hitter who now assembles teams that consistently collapse in the postseason. "Beaned Again": A euphemism for "Fucked By Beano Again," usually uttered after another postseason elimination or mind-numbingly bad off-season trade. AN: Athletics Nation, aka Asslickers Nation, a Beano propoganda blog, for "fans" who think simply making it to the playoffs--not actually winning it--is good enough. PN: Pathetics Nation, an intelligent parody of AN. Asslicker: Anyone who visits AN regularly. The T-shirt salesman: Our satirical nickname for the self-appointed ruler of Athletics Nation. The Anti-Blez: Your groovy Pathetics Nation guru.
