Sorry, but over the past couple years I have heard a lot of booing for Frank out there. There have been plenty of Sox fans that have been down on him and wanted him gone.

That was not "the f**s" and I heavily resent your homophobic hate speech in referring to some people by ther term "f**s."

 

:fyou you insecure homophobe

 

 

Zach and I have heard many of straight people's supposed finest most informed fans here on the boards and at the park say that Frank was washed up, no good, should be traded, and booing him lustily.

 

 

I have had f***ing enough of hate speech where "f**s" is used an insult. It wouldn't be tolerated if it were the word "n*****" and I have been waging this loney crusade against homophobic hate speech for as long as I can. We have been over this territory before. If respect for human beings cannot be accorded here, then Jason, Mario, Murcie, I present to a problem that needs solutuion. We have gay and lesbian members here who do not deserve to be insulted so repeatedly by people who cannot speak normally but must substitute hate speech. Shall I edit the posts? Shall I delete the posts? Shall the poster be banned (I am NOT in favor of that option.) Shall I and others permanently leave soxtalk so I can stop having insults tossed at me and be offended by people who use hate speech? What the f*** has to happen before something good happens?

Actually, its perfectly fine for a black man to call someone, white or black, a n*****. And behind a computer screen you cant tell if the person is white or black so nothing can be done about use of the word n*****. Im white so I dont use it, but if a black poster did, Id be fine with it. Us white people can call people crackers and its not racist. But you can probably tell by the context when the word is hateful or not. Hint: "My n****" is not a hate term.

 

And as for "f**s", who really cares? Its not a hate term. Heck, I call even people who I know are straight f**s. The words been so distorted it hardly refers to gay people anymore...

Honestly cw, I do understand you being upset, but the proplem is when someone reacts like this it gives the words power. I really believe that the more offended we get at words used for racism, sexism, and any of the other offending isms that exsist, we take the power out of our own hands and give it to those would hurt us. Not many people think like I do though, and I don't expect them to, but give it some thought.

 

But as to the central issue of your post, I do agree that for the masses and the good of the site, there should be a cut and dry policy with consequences for offending behavior involving the offending "isms". If we allow posters to use derogatory slang in just about any way shape or for we open the door to hate. I would say that offenders of sex, religion, race, or anything of the like should serve a short banishment with an explanation sent to that person as to why they were locked out. The second time they should be done, IMO.

The guy with the eminem picture is talking about not saying "f**", classic.........kidding

 

But to go back on topic, Frank was booed when he went through that what seemed like 2 year slump. Things are getting better now that Frank is turning back into himself again.

I agree with SS. If you complain about the word, it does mean something hateful. If you dont, its just another insult to the general population...

LMAO!!!! :lol: :lolhitting

 

I went to a game where Frank was getting heavily booed. It was harsh because I was behind him the whole way and I couldn't believe that was happening in our park. s*** happens, the fans got over it and I think Frank has to.

I was thinking the exact same thing :lol:

Yeah, no kidding. He cries about someone saying f** on a board with a few dozen readers, yet he supports a "singer" with the following lyrics that are heard by millions...I'd buy a damn brewery, and turn the planet into alcoholics. If I had a magic wand, I'd make the world suck my dick without a condom on, while I'm on the john. If I had a million bucks it wouldn't be enough, because I'd still be out robbing armored trucks.

 

So, cwsox, :fyou you hypocrite.

 

Maybe you should take Jordan4life to John Wayne Gacy's house and teach him about life, :lol: .

Hey! John Gacy lived on my Aunts block and my Mom's best friend was murdered by him. My aunt was attacked too. Please refrain from saying his name again. It hurts inside when I think about it.

Wow. Its scary when one of these killers you think youre safe from hits so close to home. And didnt that guy kill kids and not adults anyways? Or were they just kids at the time? Sorry to talk about it...

Well even if he only killed kids, which he did, it doesnt matter. He only killed boys. Was your moms best friend a guy? Alright, Ill shut up now...

LESBIANS!!!!!!!!!!! WHERE???????? I got to meet up with them. Lesbians kick ass! :headbang

 

Vince. I see where you're coming from, but it is funny that you you're a big fan of eminem. One of the biggest homophbes to ever walk the earth. Let me guess......... Will you defend him with his art and talent so it's ok if he says it? Admit it. he's a piece of s***!

And i'm no liar. I was one of those booing Frank. But i'm glad he didnt go. In 21 years of being a sox fan, i never saw a single player start and retire with the Sox. It would be nice to see Frank do it as long as he knows when to get out . Harold didnt and it was a s***ty way to see him go out considering he was my favorite Sox player till Robin came up.

LESBIANS!!!!!!!!!!! WHERE???????? I got to meet up with them. Lesbians kick ass!  :headbang

Big Rosie O'Donnell fan, are ya, Maury?

Or maybe that HOT Ellen Degeneres???

 

:lol: :bang :lol:

 

Not ALL lesbians are like the ones in the "movies", bucko!!!!

And I was also off the Frank wagon...I'm glad he's doing well, because when he's on he's a huge weapon. But loyalty is a thing of the past in professional sports, and trust me, if there was a deal to his liking last winter, Frank would be in another uniform right now, shooting little verbal jabs at White Sox management and fans.

 

Professional sports now is all about the money and "respect", which usually means money anyway, so I'm way past falling in love with a player and defending anyone if they're not producing.

 

So SINCE he's playing well and UNTIL he stops playing well, I'm all for Frank Thomas!

Oh no! I'm just trying to find a lesbian that says she's gay but will swing both ways with her girlfriend! and not anything like those 2 pigs you described.

Whats yalls problems? You stick with pieces of crap like Joe Crede, whos OBP is .280, but you jump on and off the bandwagon of Frank Thomas, whos hit 401 homeruns for us during his loyal career. Crede will never do that. He wont even reach 200 homeruns in his pathetic career. Ill never turn on Frank Thomas. I cant see how you guys can turn on him either. The mans a legend and he deserves respect...

You better be joking if you're the guy who was pushing frank out earlier this season and last year if i remember correctly. am i wrong?

Are you an idiot? Ive never pushed Frank out. Ask southsider, hell definitely tell you that I turn on a lot of players quickly, but never on Frank. Franks my favorite player and I would never turn my back on him. Please tell me when I was pushing him out...

Vince. I see where you're coming from, but it is funny that you you're a big fan of eminem. One of the biggest homophbes to ever walk the earth.

that's a whole 'nother discussion for off topic but Em is not a homophobe - too late at night and too involved to get into that - the few things quoted ut of context and minus the conent aren't the answer - actually he has gotten very popular in the g/l/b/t community - but that is an off topic discussion

 

I hope that Frank makes it start to finish in one unform - we may have to go back to Appling to find a player of similar years of service who did that
