T R U Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 No, it is saying that you are rooting for a Mariner player over a White Sox player. That is all that it says. Good luck wtih that. By the way for the hundreth time, I have never said that either of you have ever said DAMN! Yeah I am going to be rooting for Jeremy Reed to be good... He WAS in our organiztion he USE to be a White Sock (correct usage?) Its not like he came up with Seattle and I am rooting for him to be better than Borchard, thats not the case...

southsideirish Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 You act like I am going to get mad if Borchard hits a HR, or does something good because I want Reed to be so much better than him.. Bottom line is, I think we should have kept Reed because I think he will have a better career than Borchard, and again, would have really been something we need.. Another power hitter with a low average is NOT what we need... That is exactly what it says when you say to come back to you in 3 years and we will see who has had a better career. You are choosing sides. You are no longer on the side of Borchard. You are choosing to root for a Mariner over a White Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 I leave for a few hours and my small comment has sparked this... Same here, I leave an hour for lunch, and there's an extra 100 responses. I guess there are a lot of different thoughts on who's the better guy b/w Reed and Borch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you are not just rooting for him to be good, you are rooting for him to be BETTER than a Chicago White Sox Read your comments again.

BrandoFan Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 NOTICE the word BETTER By saying Reed will have a better career than Borchard you are clearly picking sides. You are clearly rooting for Reed over Borchard. You are clearly rooting for a Seattly Mariner ove a Chicago White Sox. . Calling the above "retarded logic" would be an insult to retards.

You are rooting for him to do better in another uniform. He is no longer here, who gives a s***!?! Root for the man in the uniform you cheer for first!

danman31 Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 Then I am sorry for insulting you. Maybe you should try not insulting people and posting 40 replies in this thread in less than an hour and a half and chill the f*** out. You seem compelled to make your point while replying like crazy. This thread has become ridiculous. It needs to be locked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoomSlowik Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 I hear this stuff about so many prospects, it makes me sick. Maybe we should have traded them Scott Ruffcorn! Until we actually see Reed hit major league pitching, I am going to remain skeptical. Borchard is more of the corner outfielder prototype, and Williams and a few others obviously have more faith in him Besides, we don't need another corner infielder, we got a ton. If he is an average centerfielder now, that would mean that it would take a while for him to become a good one. By then, we could probably just promote Anderson or Young. I'm much more optomistic about these guys because they are more likely to become a stud defensive centerfielder in the Torri Hunter/Carlos Beltran mold, and so far it looks like Anderson might have a chance to be the next Beltran at the plate too(god that would be sweet).

Root for the man in the uniform you cheer for first! Wish the other guy well. and if the other guy has a good career than so be it. IM NOT ROOTING FOR HIM TO DO BETTER... I THINK he will do better... It doesnt mean I am gonna become the biggest Jeremy Reed fan in the World.. I think Reed would have been a better fit for our organization than Borchard, and I think we are going to see that sometime down the road.. If Borchard comes up and hits .270 with 35 HRS GREAT! Awesome! Then I wont think that this was a bad decision... but Borchard hasnt done anything to get me excited about his future career...

BrandoFan Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 Then I am sorry for insulting you. Yawn. Speaking of which.... Don't look now, but Cubs came within a fluke Diaz outing (last week against Zambrano) from taking 5 out of 6 from the Sox just as my "stupid" prediction stated. Next time you'll know better than to call me out, eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
