Nice to see Hermanson getting ahead of the hitters again, and keeping the ball down. Good win, all things considered.

he gawn! Told you guys it would eventually be a laugher.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Laugher? Hardly.

nice win, despite the middle of the game angst.

 

shingo contributed

 

Cotts looked good

 

stress free ninth from Hermie

 

 

and plenty of runs.

 

now it's up to Garland

Laugher?  Hardly.

 

Three run lead with Hermanson in the ninth = laugher from the first pitch he threw in the inning.

 

Just my opinion.

I want to thank those that realized things were getting out of hand and decided to just stop when I asked you too. To those that keep on keeping on, that will come to a stop one way or the other.

How long did he stick around? Did he just shoot around or help teach you guys things?

 

How awesome would it have been if he went to us like he was projected a week before the draft. Then last second he moved up out of our range. I was calling for us to trade up for him if need be the entire off-season then.

 

No teaching, just watching.

 

Yeah, it's a shame he didn't fall to us. I'm not mad about Hinrich or anything like that, it's just Wade's a level above Hinrich.

I really should ignore this, but sorry, I can't.

 

What a lot of you whiners know about long term thinking is very little.

 

Nothing personal to you, but what you said is so totally out of whack it just had to be responded to.

once again labeled a "whiner" cause i've got a different perspective. when anything wrong happens and i hear "we're still in first" that is a cop out to me.

still think they have to figure out what to do with Vizcaino.

 

He should be better than he has pitched for the last six weeks.

 

And he hasn't been overused.

i don't understand why you are tellin me i HAVE to do, act, think, and react like yourselves.  i do enjoy watchin the game.  sports are like rock concerts they are a release.  i still have not gotten an answer that will satisfy me with respect to not conforming to the rest of the group on here.  you immediately get labeled as "negative" and "aweful" (spellin that wrong intentionally to piss off mr. spelling bee).  who cares if someone says freddy garcia is gonna lose a game in the first inning?  let them say it.  let them get their frustrations out.  better doing it that way than other unhealthy ways.

It's a two way street.

 

If you are here to get your frustrations out, you should expect that people will do the same thing if your behavior frustrates them. Fair is fair.

try keeping a level-head during these games?

 

 

 

i'll stay out of gamethreads then.

have fun talking about how we suck.

Pax tried to trade up to Toronto in order to select Wade. In hindsight, it was a deal he should have made, though I can remember the details.

awesome.

Paxson didn't want to trade away marshall even though he ended up doing so anyway the same year.

Maybe we need a game thread for reinsdorfsucks and jabroni, and then one for everyone else.

No. You're a whiner because you b**** about the simplist thing wrong.

 

I've clashed with Jim on several issues, and we've never called each other names. The way you present yourself is, well, like a whiner. You b**** about the smallest thing that goes wrong.

 

Is everything flowers and roses and peaches? No. But we have the best record in baseball. If I didn't watch this team day in, day out, you'd think we're in last place with all the b****ing that goes on in these threads.

Several others or so could partcipate in that thread too.

 

The chat must have been slow eh?

It took you 15,004 posts to come up with THAT?!?

 

 

 

PS - Good one!

Sober second thought usually comes with experience. (Easy for me to say after 6 pints).

 

Congrats on the 15 K, YASNY.

personally i don't give a rats ass what others say about me. it's only a f'n message board. it's only baseball. it's entertainment. obviously others can't recognize that.

Good post. While Shingo is showing some improvement, Vizcaino just keeps throwing meatballs.

Keith to be honest I do not ever recall clashing with you. The closest I can recall is we disagreed on Harris over the winter ... that was about it ... ? Mutual respect maybe.

Okay folks, I've got to get out of here. Everybody behave. Please. Sox won. We have an 8 game lead. All is well.

Yeah, clashed wasn't really the right word.

 

Disagreed on Harris and perhaps Guzman this offseason, that's about it.

then put me on ignore. you don't have to read my posts. save yourself the heart attack and high blood pressure buddy. but i could give a flying f*** what you actually think. and if you let some words typed on the internet bother you, and that goes out to everyone on this board, you're f***in weak plain and simple.

personally i don't give a rats ass what others say about me.  it's only a f'n message board.  it's only baseball.  it's entertainment.  obviously others can't recognize that.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Just a hunch, but I would say many here think it's you who can't recognize things.

 

No one cares that you vent your frustrations, just be prepared to get it back if your behavior frustrates others.

 

Again, nothing personal and by the way I did not specifically call you a whiner, I was referring to a group. I don't know enough about your posts to figure it out, but my guess is you won't be around long if you don't start realizing it's a two way street here.
