OT: Oakland A’s reach wayyy too hard for deflategate joke:

[Joey007]

Woof. Talk about reaching.

If you’re going to make a joke referencing us, at least make a Tuck Rule joke. That would’ve at least made sense!

2015 called. They want their horrible joke back.

And yeah, it does seem like the Tuck Rule would be a far more natural reference given that that was Oakland-NE.

I must be dense but what does DFG have to do with the Sox/A's?

That’s the thing. It doesn’t at all.

My theory here is that the A’s Twitter guy must be a 17 year old that’s never even heard of the tuck rule.

So he just went with something he thought would make people go “lololol”

Am I just being biased if I think that deflategate jokes were never that funny in the first place?

I’m just talking about the delivery of the jokes themselves here, they were mostly pretty uncreative.

What a dope.

For a moment I thought there was a bat-corking incident or something that I missed.

Nah, they wouldn’t be clever enough for that.

Meh. Beezboll is terminally lame to begin with. An ill-conceived joke won't make it any lamer.
