    The 2012 Jim Palmer Quotables Thread

    Paraphrasing: "I had Cal Ripken when he first came up playing third, of course I had Brooks Robinson with 16 Gold Gloves, too...what are you working on?" To Mark Reynolds at Spring Training.

    You're right, Jim Palmer apparently didn't realize that. Oops, BK can't be too happy about that.

    Actually "Have it your way" is a returning slogan for BK. So in that sense Cakes was ok...

    Last year Flanny said something like "its like trying to sneak the sun by the rooster, it aint happening". As soon as I heard Palmer say the quote that is referenced above, I immediately thought of that quote from Flanny....RIP.

    Talking about Johnson's mustache...

    Palmer: "I grew a beard once. Then someone told me you look like so-and-so, and I didn't want to look like so-and-so. So I drove right home and shaved it off."

    Palmer now fantasizing about having a helipad on top of the warehouse where he could land his "Jim-pod" (as opposed to helicopter) and repel down the face of the warehouse.

    "A man of your stature should be able to helicopter in. You could land right on the warehouse. Or rapel down. ... rapel is when you come down the rope."

    Is Palmer getting paid by Burger King? He said "have it your way! Burger King" and then he mentioned that he said it yesterday too but people must not have heard it because it was opening day.

    Kinda like he got some heat for not saying it yesterday on the OD telecast.
