The 2012 Jim Palmer Quotables Thread

[primetime]

Palmer and Hunter were discussing Weaver's induction to the Hall Of Fame......Palmer says, in reference to Weaver, "I'm the one that wrote the letter to the Veteran's Committee and said all those nice things about him. Of course I didn't mean any of them." :laughlol:

Did you guys think I was slacking? http://forum.orioleshangout.com/forums/showthread.php/118903-The-2012-Jim-Palmer-Quotables-Thread?highlight=

My bad. Mods, can you merge me into this one?

Palmer had a dig of a nickname for Kevin Gregg, but I can't remember what it was. Anybody catch it?

Captain Chaos.

That's the one. I couldn't help but laugh when I heard it.

He mentioned something about Andino having or not having little person syndrome. Lol.

So someone made a thread asking what happened to this thread... it was just back a couple pages. But Palmer was kind enough to give some material worth bumping it.

On Mariano Rivera starting the bottom of the 12th in a save situation:

Isn't he too old to be up at this hour?

Here it is.

After the O's hit a grounder that ricocheted off Sabathia's leg, and Thorne pointed out that it was the second ball that hit him in this game:

"It's a big target."

[weams]

"Not Maternity...Paternity." After Jim Hunter speaks of Sergio Santos' child birth.

[cmurter]

After a crappy strike call on Jones today:

"Hopefully we don't have another one of those Yankee umpiring games like those three in Baltimore. Those were 3 of the worst umpired games in the history of....games." :laughlol:

Toronto had the bases loaded, Batista up at bat with an 0-2 count and the Jays 3rd baseman is the runner on 3rd and he tries to steal home. He as OUT!

Palmer questioned the decision to attempt the steal w/ Batista up and bases loaded. He said, "thats what you do when Mark Belanger is up, he hits like .219"

[TakebackOPACY]

Announcing the O's defensive configuration in the first inning:

"Nick Markakis, gold glove winner; he's in RF. Adam Jones, he won a gold glove a couple years ago; he's in center. Nolan Reimold, don't hit it into the lights 'cuz he's manning LF." (Reimold seemingly lost a ball in the lights in yesterday's game.)

[Moose Milligan]

"Not taking one for the team, I already have enough Gold Gloves."

He kills me every single broadcast.

[better]

After avoiding a foul ball in the booth and Hunter mocking him for it: "I ain't taking one for the team. I already got enough Gold Gloves."
