But I love him for it. My favorites being his response to questions about his near perfect game against Texas last year ("We won and that's the bottom line," Bedard said. "If I throw a complete game, I throw a complete game. If I don't, I don't. At the end of the day we won and that's what counts."), and his spring training request of only five questions. To which a reporter asks "Why only five questions?" and Bedard replies "Now you only have 4 questions.". How am I the only one who finds this hysterical? He's a talented guy who's really dry and keeps to himself. Maybe he's got a superiority complex, but mostly he just seems like a guy who doesn't want to have to deal with media types. Which I guess is part of being an athlete, but do people hate Eddie Murray? He was mean to the media, too. Well, it’s true: his quotes are often (hiliarously) stupid. But I love him for it.

On why Bedard can't go longer, Bavasi says it's a good question, but one that has to be put to Bedard. "He'll have a stupid answer for you, you can count on it,'' Bavasi said. "He'll have some dumbass answer.'' I saw this quote too, thought it was funny:

Referring to Daniel Cabrera: "The guy is an idiot," Pedroia told reporters afterward. "I dropped my bat. It kind of freaked me out. I was upset they took him out of the game. He is good to hit. He's 9-15. The guy sucks." The quote that made me hate Dustin Pedroia?
