A little batting practice

It's been a while since I've posted here on the good ole' Stain Club and like Roger Clemens, I need a nice warmup period where I can throw some BP and stay in shape before I really get back in the game. What better place to start than a story of someone with Clemens level talent, my friend from high school.

The man never ceases to amaze. His ability to QFS is an inspiration to us all. Most recently, he had been dating a new girl (possibly the one he got with after dropping the 4 year girlfriend, I'm not sure). Apparently, this girl had the audacity to suspect him of cheating on her. Taken as an isolated suspicion, knowing my friend, this is not wholly unreasonable. However, she decided her big follow-up would be to steal his phone and search through the call list and text messages to figure out if she was right.

She may not have completely understood the strength of my friend and his QFS proficiency, but when he found out about this, I think we all know what happened. He quit immediately and having re-gained strength, found a new girl later that night.

To apply a baseball metaphor to this situation, my friend represents a pitcher deep into the sixth inning of a dominating no-hit performance, finds out that the opposing team has corked their bats. Instead of complaining to the umps, he says to himself "they can't hit me anyways" and dominates the plate for 3 more no-hit, K filled, innings.


EDIT: Also I highly recommend reading the comments section of S.Q.'s "Iraq Poll" post. A nice example of the debate possible when our readers leave comments.
