That had to be said.

Not us, of course, but the media in general. Listening to the afternoon guy on the local sports station yesterday, a guy I actually like more than all of the other ones, made me want to hurl. After talking about how Bedard was going to have exploratory surgery tomorrow (today), he was surmising that Bedard had likley pitched his last game this season, perhaps for his short M's career; then thanking a deity for it.
First, I'm not sure why we'd be so happy that Bedard wasn't going to pitch.
Second, the implication that he was somehow wimpy flies in the face of the facts we now know.
So instead of villifying a guy you don't like because he's not media-friendly and letting that color your evaluation of the guy as a pitcher, how about maybe giving the guy a little slack for pitching effectively despite doing so with a torn labrum!!!!!!!
There.
Done venting.
Cheers.
