Dude, as freaky as a player as he was, dipping with a whole can of chaw in his jaw, what makes you think I would actually take his advice on trading stocks? The guy had no clue about the pitchers he was facing, no memory, no game day preparation, but I’m supposed to listen to his advice on Wall Street? Please. I’m not exactly sure if this is news, but here’s the latest stock advice courtesy of Nails himself.

In Monday’s column I suggested placing an order in Amgen for 10 January 2008 45s (WAMAI) with a $12.50 limit order.

That order was not filled in Monday trading, but Amgen shares opened sharply lower today, at $52.36, after more bad news on its anemia franchise. My good-till-cancel order got filled at $10.40 this morning. I then set my sell order at $11.40.

Yeah, whatever Mr. Fancy Pants. You think you’re so cool with your stock trading terminology? How hard can it be — give me WBC at 15 per and put a fast sell on it when that mother rises to a TPC level of 17.5 by this afternoon, pronto. Yeeaah, what up now Dykstra? Huh? That’s right, I got you man. Go back to your car washes why don’t ya?

      [...] Honestly, who needs a home with 109 rooms? He deserves to have it foreclosed just for being that ostentatious. Of course, he could be using the rooms to house all his kids. The best quote came from the dude representing one of the Baby Mamas that wants some money from Old Field. As he said, child support of $6,000? That’s probably the light bill at Old Field’s place. No doubt. So yeah, once again, we have an athlete in a serious financial mess. Don’t be fooled however, some do have success in the afterlife. [...]
