  1. Those 4 games could be smack-dab in the middle of the NYY series.
  2. That's exactly why. As soon as i saw your user i thought: "Ah s***, we're all getting banned."
  3. Well, the doc is right.
  4. You just gave me an awful awful case of heartburn.
  5. Wow, Brandon League is filthy. One can only wonder why he sucks so bad.
  6. This is exactly why Doiji told you that. You go around s***ing on half the board. Just like you did against J_E lat night. I may not know what hypocrisy is, but this looks like a textbook example of it,
  7. Well if that's your take on it, then you can go down that road, sure. A hypocrite is a person whose words and actions contradict themselves, in other words, preaches something he does not practice. A double-standard, if you may.
  8. You gonna make juice with those cherries?
  9. You said you would've have walked to 1st, you also said you have been a victim of decisions in a state of anger many a time. You too, are a fallible human being, assuring you would have done otherwise in this particular situation after admitting you've fallen victim to blind anger as well is being a hypocrite.
  10. Easy to say from the couch indeed. Agree to disagree then.
  11. Simple. No matter who you are, what you work at, how much you make, or what you do for a hobby, you are a human being. You have flaws. One of the flaws of a human being is blind rage, which we have all experienced at one point or another in our lives. And sure, as you have stated yourself, the repercussions are usually much bigger than the instant gratification. But the point is, sometimes you simply cannot control yourself, because it's easy to sit on the couch and say "well that was stupid, it's only a HBP", but what you need to understand here is the fact that a person can only take so much of a certain situation that's making him uncomfortable before snapping. Even if you're a professional, even if you make millions of dollars, you're still human. And unlike what you said earlier, rationale is not the only part of being human, so are emotions, and emotions sometimes cannot be controlled. For the last time, ballplayers are not robots.
  12. Read. Neither Y228 nor i have said it's not detrimental to the Sox. What's trying to be explained is the fact that you can't call Youk "selfish" for it. Oh, and about Crespo's "Oh well the ability to think" whatever, it's hypocrisy. Of the worst kind.
  13. We're usually on the same page about a lot of things, but not here. Youkilis is paid to hit the ball, catch the ball and throw the ball. Nowhere in his job description is there a clause that reads "You are to become this team's beaning puppet". Again, it was stupid, but calling him out on it is not very smart either, since there is only so much a man will take.
  14. You hit the nail in the head about as hard as you could. Excellent post.
  15. Who the f*** uses Super Mario as a moustache model?
  16. Post of the year.
