    THIS is how fight starts. Iortiz, if you don't know what something means, find out first before making those asinine comments. Now you give the big blowhard a chance to take a shot at me, and so it begins. A strawman is not an insult. A strawman is saying that someone fabricated an easy-to-counter argument that was not presented by anyone, or does not fit the topic of discussion.

    Where's the insult? Do you know what a "strawman" actually is?

    ^ Strawman.

    That's where you expect him to be, but you have no logical argument to back up the idea that that's where he will end up necessarily. It's not a big sample size, and he could simply be in a slump or pressing. The truth is, none of us knows, and proclaiming to know is disingenuous.

    40 if it was a really big foul.

    We may be seeing WMB and Lavarnway a lot sooner than expected.

    Back-patting extraordinaire on the seasonal benchmark known as April 18.

    So the solution to an event that happened two years ago (mind you, Youk got his from the media), is creating controversy for the team after last year's collapse and a lackluster start? Solid strategy.

    That's an exaggeration, not a strawman. A strawman is you creating an imaginary position for me regarding Youkilis' comments. Just fyi. If your boss fires you, it's going to be because of your refusal to accept or understand logic.

    Yeah, how he's hitting is totally an indicator of his dedication for the team. Poor logic is going to die if you keep stabbing it so hard. By the way, Youkilis calling out Ellsbury is exactly one of the instances of players f***ing up that i mentioned earlier. Also, you don't know the judgement regarding that situation from members of this site. Stop making stuff up please.

    Do you want me to dig up a bunch of stuff on players who hated him? Also, have you read anything i've posted? There's no point in arguing with you while you firmly hang on to Valentine's shaft and tell yourself "V can do no wrong". He f***s up, just like the players do. Live with it.

    How did you come to that conclusion? The point was that Ciriaco can't play the OF. He may help more than Spears or Repko, who aren't really known for their OF D, but McD has speed and can play D in all three OF positions. Is this about what's better for the team or you not liking McD? Honest question.

    How was Youkilis not prepared to do his job? This seems like a lot of reaching. Valentine admitted that he misinterpreted a question and gave an inappropriate answer. We are talking about the person who actually made the remark. Your conclusion makes no sense.

    I've umpired little league baseball games and both guys and girls hard-pitch softball. I like it to an extent, but some players can be really annoying. Also, foul tips.

    So that gives him the right to question a player's desire in public? The one who needs to shut up is Valentine, a point he acknowledged himself by apologizing.

    And the Red Sox won't?

    I am also a Cowboys fan and have been to Lincoln Financial. I go to Giants games every single year. Always decked out in Cowboys gear. Clearly, I am also a Red Sox fan. I go to games at Fenway a lot, many of which have lots of away fans there, including one game vs. the Rangers 2 years ago. Even though the Rangers destroyed us, nobody had any trouble, including this one REALLY obnoxious group a few rows down. I have also been to both Yankees Stadiums in all Red Sox gear, and never really had much trouble other than some heckling. It has gotten to a comfort level where I am even okay with my girlfriend wearing her Sox stuff there too. Most of the s*** like that is all made up. If you travel to an away game and act with class and respect, 99% of the time you will receive it back.
