I once had an email discussion with a writer from the Baltimore Sun who took a lot of flack for comparing Peyton Manning to Johnny Unitas.

kitekrazy Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 I'm more sad than angry how many of these Sox players turned out. There has to be a deep morale issue when you've seen these guys like Robert, TA just phase out. Sure there are injuries but going elsewhere seems to be uplifting. Imagine what it was like for Vargas last year going from the Dodgers to the Sox. The reality is most player don't like to get traded. How many of you had a job transfer that you didn't put in for? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitekrazy Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 On the other side of things despite this incident Sox fans seem to honor former players giving them a standing O. Didn't that happen with TA? I still remember them giving Alexei a standing O. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T R U Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 No shot this 22 year old kid knew that his mom died in a car accident 8 years ago (when he would have been 14). Hell, I didn't even know that until this happened. The big thing here is to be careful about what you say to people, I know this resulted in him being thrown out and banned but man mouthing off to the wrong person about something you don't even know how impactful it is to them, recipe for disaster. I always get on my wife when she rages in the car at another driver on the road for doing something stupid, you never know who is going to lose it and have a gun or follow you somewhere. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 (edited) Shows you should never heckle about family members especially moms. Even if he didn't refer to her dying you gain nothing by going there with a mom comment. They should just make sure the guy is kept out of Comiskey the rest of this season and half of next season. And make him write a letter of apology to the player and make sure he emails it. Edited June 27 by greg775 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is way too much monkee business going on at a barren Rate Field to actually think they have eyes on everyone, and to think they would make it someone's job to look for this guy, no way. It's just a token statement. No way they can enforce it, unless he shows up the next week and someone at the gate recognizes him, and even then, all they can do is throw him out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirdGen Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 This whole thing is way overblown. Ever sit in the bleachers at Wrigley? They would need to ban 50 fans per game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's really not enforceable. He'd be fucked as a season ticket holder, but otherwise he can just create a "burner account" for the At Bat/Ballpark app, which someone (kyle?) mentioned would be the only way to red flag him.

almagest Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 On one hand, this witch hunt is definitely excessive, especially given what the guy actually said. I also saw a bunch of posts online giving his identity and photo away, telling the internet to "do your worst". That's just not acceptable. On the other hand, if this kid is a mouthy brat, this will be a good lesson with lower impact consequences than what could happen if he says the wrong thing to the wrong person. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
