Mark Buehrle Told MLB.com He Hoped Mike Vick Got Hurt. Then, That Quote Vanished
Mark Buehrle vs. Mike Vick: The White Sox pitcher told MLB.com, “He had a great year and a great comeback, but there were times where we watched the game and I know it’s bad to say, but there were times where we hope he gets hurt. Everything you’ve done to these dogs, something bad needs to happen to these guys.” But after the story had been online for a few hours, the Vick quote disappeared. Did MLB.com yank the quotes after Buehrle complained, or was it something less sinister, like a simple misquote? [Hardball Talk]

Maybe he endorsed someone shooting him

Buehrle is a fucking redneck. What a surprise he plays for the sox.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:01 AM
Its not like he said he should be executed. Im sure many people out there had the same thoughts as him. I hope he actually did say it.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:04 AM
I’m not a fan of wishing injury on any athlete, another pro athlete should have known better and been smarter than this
February 10th, 2011 at 11:04 AM
too bad they didn’t keep the quote up. it’s not like he’s saying something different than any dog or animal lover said when vick played.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:05 AM
Had a feeling CJ would approve of Mr. Perfect’s quote.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:05 AM
Exactly. But Buehrle is not smart. I’d argue he might be legally retarded.

February 10th, 2011 at 11:06 AM
ditto. +1. He should have known that anything he said was going to be scrutinized, stick to the boilerplate.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:06 AM
he’s been on fyah recently.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:08 AM
the fuck do you expect from the white sox. there isn’t a single fucking shred of class in that entire organization…they’re led by pablo escobar, generally managed by a guy who makes bill polian and aj smith look like decent human beings and have nothing but racist, retarded, meth smoking hilljacks on their team.
fuck the white sox.

Excellent take by Spencer in comment 12. +2 for that.
Now, be sure to watch your back, as I’m sure some Sox fans will be chasing you down when they run out of meth.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:12 AM
Or the sox fans might just beat their wives instead.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:12 AM
For a minute there, I was sure you were talking about the Packers but the lack of fatass made it clear.

Fresh take
February 10th, 2011 at 11:14 AM
So, it’s opening day of baseball and a first grade teacher turns on the Brewers game for her class. One student doesn’t want to watch it. The teacher asks why. The student says, “I just moved here from Chicago. I’m a cubs fan.” The teacher says, “Well, why would anyone root for the cubs?” The student says, “Well, my parents are cubs fans, so I am.” The teacher says, “You need to think for yourself. What if your dad was a drug dealer or what if your mom was a prostitute?”
The student says, “Well, then I’d be a white sox fan.”

February 10th, 2011 at 11:18 AM
People say this and maybe some of them mean it, but injuries to opposing teams are often cheered and praised.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:18 AM
All this baseball talk is making me ache for warm weather.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:18 AM
You know this isn’t happening. 2011 is Detroit’s year! Tigers win the central, wings win the cup, lions make the playoffs, and the pistons . . . maybe they’ll win the lottery!
February 10th, 2011 at 11:18 AM
Have they reattached Jake Peavy’s scrotum yet?

February 10th, 2011 at 11:19 AM
Can we also apply this statement to Mets fans?
February 10th, 2011 at 11:20 AM
I said the same thing yesterday. I need to see some seams on a little white ball soon. February is just terrible for me. Been inside for 3 months pretty much. Hockey carries me through but I really need to get outside again.

I choose not to feel bad about injuries but the whole idea of wanting to see someone get hurt while the fan is home watching on the couch annoys me
The division deserves sending a team to the tournament that can actually win a fucking game
February 10th, 2011 at 11:22 AM
Daddy would be divorced 3 times and embezzling money from the bank he worked at to pay his alimony if this were the Mets.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:22 AM
Yeah probably some hypocrisy going on here. I admit to smiling and not feeling bad when Jeter injured his shoulder sliding into 3rd base that time. I’d draw the line at making FUCKING tshirts celebrating an injury though.

-12 this morning in Minneapolis
Then the Sox or Tigers need to step up and start winning some fucking games unlike last year when they curled into the fetal position and watched the Twins give it to them.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:24 AM

February 10th, 2011 at 11:29 AM
i mean it when i say i want an athlete injured.
pain goes away, they have a level of societal access and financial well being that i can only dream about. i’d gladly sacrifice 9 months of physical rehab for the extra shit.

I think that’s Cleveland. Or maybe the Dakotas or something.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:31 AM
Someone in marketing should get fired for that thing. People from Detroit already buy American cars. They needed a commercial that appeals to people from outside the area.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:33 AM
Like to think I’m in the other 5%, but you’re right.
/and in the Bromes top 10%
February 10th, 2011 at 11:34 AM
To be honest, it wasn’t that great of a commercial. I mean, I can see why people from the D get fired up about it, but is anyone buying a Chrysler? Fuck no. People will buy a Ford or a GM product before they buy Chrysler.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:35 AM
This isn’ttrue. Drive around the burbs of Detroit and you see more foreign cars than you’d think.

Ever been in a city’s impound lot? It’s actually kind of a depressing place because it’s also where wrecked cars are taken after an accident scene is cleared. You look around and see some absolutely destroyed vehicles, some of them with biohazard stickers on the windshield, and it just gives you a chill.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:42 AM
To be fair, I did say the burbs.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:43 AM
Rental Car Agency “We have this Chrysler Sebring”
Me “No, I want a real car.”
RCA “How about a PT Cruiser?”
Me “No, I am not driving that turd.”
F Chrysler.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:46 AM
F Chrysler.
My first car was a Chrysler Cirrus that I drove for 7 years. I think I had to replace the fuel pump and part of the wiring twice. The water pump once, the right brake light at least 3 times, the passenger side mirror twice (though the first time was because I got in a small wreck), and a shitload of other things. Chrysler’s fall apart after their first 4 years.

ford makes a pretty nice car these days, nice design and apparently good reliability. I’ve got the fusion hybrid and edge on my short list of cars that i’ll get next. audi a4 if i get a raise.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:58 AM
Love my Ford Fusion. Wanted to get the hybrid but even with the A Plan discount the bare bones hybrid was $5K over my price range. Got a regular Fusion SEL V6 fully loaded instead.
February 10th, 2011 at 12:40 PM
Just finished paying off my car: a used 02 Honda Accord. Pretty reliable. I hope to hang onto the one for a couple years before buying again. Hopefully there will be more 50 mpg cars by then.
February 10th, 2011 at 12:46 PM
I hope vick get paralyzed from the eyebrows down with his eyes left open and has a fly constantly landing on them shitting and puking. Fuck Vick. He’s a bad person.
