DukeNukeEm Posted June 26, 2005 Author Share Posted June 26, 2005 Trust me you are not going to offend me. But if you take a shot at me, guess what its coming back. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Exactly. I have no problem with you, other than the fact you want to pick up a bunch of players before the deadline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JimH Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 Personally I thought the thread was pretty civil, everyone pretty much chilled out before it got testy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeNukeEm Posted June 26, 2005 Author Share Posted June 26, 2005 Yea, you should see the usual message board wars I get into. I usually really dig into the person by page 3. I consider this a big step forward for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukeNukeEm Posted June 26, 2005 Author Share Posted June 26, 2005 this was nothing, the feather ruffling is so strange to me. I frequent a football site, and the Cubs/Sox thread would send some of you guys into e-shock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam G Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 QUOTE(DukeNukeEm @ Jun 25, 2005 -> 06:13 PM) 50 f***ing wins in f***ing June. This makes me so angry because you expect so much out of a team thats given a better product than ever could have f***ing dreamed of. I dont know about you, but I dream of a World Series victory. And if a trade or two is going to bring us closer to that goal, so be it. A 50 win first half does not a world champion make. It's encouraging, but definitely not satisfying.

I love your excitement and all of that stuff, but you might have gone a little overboard to prove the point. We all love the team, but to win a world series we might have to make some changes. Are you willing to sacrifice? I would agree with some of your stuff, keep it up. GO SOX!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 QUOTE(DukeNukeEm @ Jun 25, 2005 -> 09:17 PM) Uribe and Crede play AWESOME "D" Neither play awesome-D. Both play above-average D, and above-average is not awesome. Awesome is gold glove caliber - Beltre, Chavez, Rolen. Are you going to call both Uribe and Crede gold glove caliber players?

Not now, but a couple years done the road for sure. If derek jeter can be a gold glover anyone can. Crede is one of the better third baseman around ( defensively) but not gold glove caliber. Flop on aim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If derek jeter can be a gold glover anyone can. Crede is one of the better third baseman around ( defensively) but not gold glove caliber. Flop on aim. Uribe could be. Strong arm, good range...it's all a matter of making a somewhat difficult play and running into the stands/being in the right place at the right time to throw out Jeremy Giambi who was safe anyways. Crede never will be. Too slow(not quick) while lacking the baseball instincts needed to become a gold glover. He is above average in the same sense that Royce Clayton is above average, in that he gets to almost every ball within 3 feet and makes all the throws, while making a spectacular play now and then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
