  1. Unfortunately Horseface went off for two more Jacks and the Yankees routed. Got to take the bad with the good!!!!
  2. You, young man, are delusional. Even the FO has raised the white flag.
  3. By the way, Ben did not sound very happy today in his dugout interview after the deadline. He also did not exactly sound contrite. While he did say that the team was not performing the way that "we" envisioned, he fell way short of saying that he, himself, had f***ed up and put together a poor team. I really don't care what happens to him. Unless this team does some revamping across the board, kiss 2017 good bye. 2016 is almost certainly gone as it is.
  4. If a manager in any organization is being told by his superior that he must do something he can voice questions or decent but ultimately if the superior wants it he has to do it. That's just how the world works. So if Ben did not want Panda and his bosses did want the bloated stiff there is not much he can do. Telling the world that your boss is a moron or made a big and costly mistake is a fast lane to unemployment. There are exceptions for people who are very good at their jobs and are valuable to the boss even with the disagreement. MLB GM jobs are not widely available. Maybe Ben did not want the porker but kept his mouth shut. Or maybe he is someone who has maxed out on the Peter Meter and just does poorly at his job. The net result is a poor product in this instance. Making excuses or speculating how it all happened is pointless. They all know that the fans will foot the bill regardless of what they do. At least in this market, anyway.
  5. By the way. I love Nova Scotia. Been up and down it several times on a motorcycle and absolutely love Kejemekujik (sp) National park, and several other places. The cleanest park system I have ever seen.
  6. f***ing hysterical. But I love sophomoric humor. I have gotten into binge watching stuff on Netflicks since I still have no house TV!!!!
  7. Maybe they should walk Napoli more often.
  8. Not sure what you are saying. Although I do think that Swihart is small framed for a catcher and yes, I think that his speed is wasted at that position.
  9. Maybe I should come to NY and meet you for a game!!!
  10. Trailer Park Boys? Sunny In Philadelphia?
  11. f***!!!!!!!! Nice job off the wall by Bradley. I think I'm reluctantly coming to the conclusion that Swihart is pretty bad a blocking balls.
  12. If he is their CF then he must be the guy many say is the only CF in MLB that rivals JBJ. I'd like to see him play.
  13. Just watch the f***ing game. Why not?
  14. So I changed my avatar again out of respect for Vic. I realize that only Ted and I really appreciated him. Hope he gets a chance to play at Fenway again and that the Sox fans give him the kind of ovation that Roberts gets.
  15. Roddy Piper croaked. I always liked that guy.
  16. They got these guys via trade? If so, how can they be counted as "developed" by the org.?
  17. Then they are in the same position. I see no urgency in seeing Craig in Boston. He is no better than your boy Naver.
  18. Rutledge showing why he has been labeled AAAA.
  19. Ben is not properly qualified. In fact, he is less qualified than our own Username. I can say this because I know the backgrounds of both.
  20. But if he continues to hit well they may be able to trade him in August and not assume the financial loss. They could also get something for him.
  21. So you advocate cutting him and eating his salary?
