...and whoever's playing the Yankees - 2008 Game Thread

Pardon' date=' yankees228, but you entered a thread where Gom and I were flaming and [i']you quoted me in my response to Gom[/i] and took issue with the words. You get what you deserve when you do that.

 

That is why I insulted you. You deserved it: you took exception to my response to Gom, a poster who is currently moving to homophobic insults in his latest attempt to overcome the shortcomings of his logic.

 

You were talking to all Yankee fans, not just Gom. Those were your words. I was trying to make a point. I have never insulted you. I did not deserve to be insulted, and I was not supporting Gom.

 

You're treating Gom and I as if we're the same person. We aren't. Not only aren't we the same person but I never even took Gom's side. Before you left I was debating this issue on my own, not backing any other posters. If you want to insult me for no reason, be my guest, I just still don't understand at all where that came from.

I saw it as Yankees228 quoting something he disagreed with, and respectfully refuting the point. Just because he took exception to what you were saying to Gom does not mean that he has taken Gom's side.

Meh, I've apologized to you elsewhere.

Just got tickets off Stubhub for tomorrow night's game. 60 bucks a man, really not bad considering the team and the fact there are so few home games remaining. Should be fun.

First, the entire post you reference regarding Yankees fans living with the disgrace:

 

 

 

The disgrace is that Gom confronted fact with opinion. I do research; he does insults. That's the disgrace. He's called my sample size too small, and he still doesn't know what it is--although I've been kind enough to state that the last two days of the month that I sampled exceeded what he cited--twice--as the complete sample size.

 

Regarding "What's with the masturbation comment?" you should realize that you've entered a zone of Talksox not for the thin-skinned. For the record, I was abused for about two weeks for being too thin-skinned to deal with crap like what thrown around in here. I regard that as inappropriate: I was trying to follow the posted rules. The posted rules seem not to apply. Live with it.

 

If you can't, I advise you to avoid areas where Gom and I are going at it. Frankly, if you get away from here, I've got nothing against you. If you support Gom in this flame war, I'll post as I choose.

 

Go f*** your sister JHB. Oh wait...she's your wife. My bad.

 

Your research comes to a point where you alledge something no one else in baseball does. You call what you've done "facts"? Ok. Why don't you just kill yourself? The world would be a better place.

Cano-no makes things interesting in the 7th. First and third, no outs for Toronto, who is down 6-2.

Girardi can't make his mind up. He's sticking with Rasner here for really no good reason, yet he pulled Pavano after 80 pitches last night after he cruised through 6.

Now he pulls him after the walk. Drunken bases with no-outs (thanks Hollywood!), let's see if they can take advantage.

This is a good chance for the rook to take advantage of the short porch and hit his first dinger for a granny.

And he K's on middle half cookie. Well, despite his 23 HR in the minors this year, he did start in high-A out of ST.

 

This is where Inglett GIDPs.

I have to follow on Gameday. Can anyone tell how much grit there was in that 1-pitch pop-out for Eckstein?

BJ trying as hard as he can to blow the game goes 3-2 on ARod with 1st and 2nd and no one out gets ARod to hit into a 5-3 DP. ARod blows so bad. Cotex ransom flies out for the last out.

If you put this in a TV script, the baseball professional hired on as a consultant would tell them to revise it because it was too impossible to believe. Thanks for suspending disbelief, ARod.

Ugh' date=' you're right. It sucks to have .967 career OPS on your team.[/quote']

 

You definetly have to consider the "distraction factor" when it comes to A-rod. He's a constant story of failure in clutch situations and always in the headlines for something negative. I'm not a huge believer of team chemistry but there is always negative energy focused around A-Rod and that can't be good for him/the team.
