White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski, was at it again, picking a fight, this time with World Series MVP David Eckstein. Pierzynski got into a shoving match with the Cardinals' Eckstein at a Total Nonstop Action Wrestling event on Sunday in Orlando. Also in the melee, Pierzynski ally Dale Torborg, the White Sox conditioning coach and son of Jeff Torborg, slugged Eckstein's brother.

How do you start a fight with David Eckstein? He's like 5 foot nothing. You have to be AN ASSHOLE to start a fight with a guy who's 5 foot nothing. Unless he insulted your mother. And in AJ's case.....

And for FUCK'S SAKE, will LJ stop changing its update page layout? Ugh. Now I have to spend 20 minutes figuring out how to opt-out of LJ's latest bullshit site improvement.

HA. That's the most hilarious thing I've heard since the Michael Barrett incident. I mean, David Eckstein... that's practically like hitting a girl, right?

Torborg and Pierzynski tore up Eckstein's new inspirational children's book, which led to the pull-apart.

fighting with david eckstein? tearing up a children's book?! okay that's like the last straw. seriously, i hate that man.

I know, right? I mean,I can't even tell how serious this is. I mean if he was doing it to play up to the camera in the context of it being a wrestling match, that's one thing, I guess. But if it was for real? I just don't even know. I guess it must have been partly meant in fun, since there's been no official apology issued about it from either side, lol.

I'm shocked that Nick wasn't in that brawl. Apparently he likes to get all up in the faces of people who are 5 foot nothing.

grrr. peeps need to chill it.

*laughs* Eckstein is a HUGE (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RkCIiA7nbo) wrestling fan. (http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/sports/wrestling/16215395.htm)

I'm having a boatload of problems with LJ, too. I'm getting a lot of "style sheet" or something errors when I try to post. And sometimes entries don't appear on my friends page for hours after they were posted. Vexing!

Which just cracks me up, really.

I'm getting a lot of "style sheet" or something errors when I try to post.

I haven't had that problem, but it's always something with lj. Grr.

And sometimes entries don't appear on my friends page for hours after they were posted. Vexing!

I wonder if that's related maybe to the bug that's got people's posts occasionally being timestamped 4 or so hours in the future? I haven't had the problem personally for a few weeks now, but there was definitely a stretch where I kept having to manually change the time on my entries, because lj was timestamping them several hours later than when I was actually posting.

Maybe it's me, because I'm not as computer literate as I would like to be, but now I can't even post a picture from my scrapbook. It used to be that you could insert it from the entry posting page, but that option is not there anymore. And my limited html knowledge is failing me...also, I'm not getting e-mail notifications. Thank you LJ, all this just a couple of weeks after I renew my account. >:-(

. It used to be that you could insert it from the entry posting page, but that option is not there anymore.

It should be the...9th little icon from the left side on the rich text editor. It's a little blue/green square? Upon closer inspection, I think it's supposed to be a picture of frank in a field under the sun, by a tree. If you click on that, it should pop up a window with three options for adding an image, one of those being "From My Scrapbook" or something like that. If you're using the HTML Editor, it's the same little blue/green square, but it's the only icon that appears under the Subject box. Does that help?

also, I'm not getting e-mail notifications. Thank you LJ, all this just a couple of weeks after I renew my account. >:-(

So frustrating! **pets you**

ah, okay! I found it, but that is awfully small, and sort of not labeled. :-P Hard to notice.

Thanks for the Tech help, again! :-)

Dude, I honestly cannot tell. I mean, none of the pieces I've seen on what happened come right out and SAY it was all just a set-up, or a joke, but at the same time, for both guys to be playing it down after, I guess it wasn't serious? I dunno. I mean, the one guy punched David's brother! lol.
