Fun stuff ... right? I think you know pain' date=' even though you are not a major leaguer.[/quote']

 

Did you get asked to do anything athletic or strenuous with your broken humerus?

 

Play baseball or another sport? Lift an engine block? stand up under your own weight?

{a700} Pedroia is a pussy. He needs to just square the ball up. I've played pickup ball, I know how to do that against beer league chumps, so Pedroia just needs to do it, no excuses. {/a700}

Just trying to show you how to troll. I was disappointed in your CC thread.

 

My CC thread was excellent.

Ask WhiskyBreath if that would be possible. My bone was splinted, not surgically repaired, so I had to sleep sitting up (at Doctor's orders) for 5 weeks, or the bone would not have healed correctly, not to mention that it was excruciatingly painful to lay down and get up. Since you know as little about anatomy as you do about baseball, I'll tell you that the humerus is the second biggest bone in the body, and since it wasn't surgically repaired and it is very difficult to immobilize without surgery, you really can't do much of anything. Football players play with cracked ribs, but you'll never see any athlete play anything with a broken humerus. I am yet to see a player who has suffered the injury who was not taken from the field on a stretcher.

So what you're saying is that there's a point beyond which, when you're injured, you should not be expected to perform as if you were not injured, whether you "know pain" or not.

 

Nice to know.

You allowed yourself to sink to the level of Yankee fan scum.:D It was disappointing. You are better than that.

 

I was making a point by paraphrasing the stupidity of his thread. Satire is never a way of lowering oneself.

Yes, 8 weeks after cracked ribs that don't show up on xrays is not that point.

Any details on Papelbon's bereavement leave?

Yeah, he's a pussy for caring about someone else.

His Beckett thread was tremendously lame and not worthy of any satire.

You've got that market cornered.

 

And I mean that in the nicest possible way.

Yeah, your comments are covered in glory on that front in this thread.

Au contraire, it sparked way much more responses than it should have due to the stupid, biased, and trollish nature of the thread, and the same thing happened with mine, as both Jacko and Keeper were about to flip their s***, and Y228 wasted an hour of his life arguing stats with me. I'd call it a trolling success.

You guys were dicks because you personally criticized me for making comments about players. I said nothing about any of you till you made it personal. Pathetic.
