  1. Rattle the pitcher and defense.
  2. A trademark of Farrell-run teams.
  3. Is Price serious with this BS? Rodriguez sucks.
  4. To think they're both still solid contributors. Baseball is funny that way.
  5. Rhet was the other guy. I think the guys defending Beltre you, Kilo and I. Maybe ORS. I miss ORS.
  6. Ok, it explains a lot.
  7. Are you crazy? There was a contingent of people here all over Beltre. That TheMino guy and an old timer whose handle I can't remember.
  8. Were you here during the Beltre hate period? That was a good one.
  9. CP, I have an honest, non-snarky question for you. Are you new to baseball forums?
  10. Well prepare to get your ass handed to you by the defenders of Farrell. Don't say I didn't warn ya.
  11. Don't forget John Farrell.
  12. In short, and to put this stupid issue to bed: People should be able to debate what they want, but the Talksox rules state (they should bring those back) that posts and topics specifically designed to antagonize or create flame wars are a no-no on site. I freely admit to creating controversy with the Papelbon posts, but those last a couple of posts and go away. This Cherington BS has been one giant buffet of antagonism for the last eight months. If you want to seriously debate the merits and problems of Cherington's tenure, go right at it, no one has a right to complain. If you want to antagonize another group of posters, make dumb black-and-white assertions and continue on a train of idiocy because neither side will budge on their viewpoint, cut that s*** out. It clutters the board, it's against the rules, and it's not interesting, current or funny.
  13. Also, in the cruelest of ironies, he's not very good at detecting sarcasm/satire.
  14. Unless it's something you don't like. You were the one calling me out earlier (for reasons I don't understand) for bringing out old stuff (what?) Be consistent.
  15. The keyword is "debate". "Debating" and "baiting" or "beating a dead horse with the express intent of annoying a group of posters" is not the same thing.
  16. No sir, you said it yourself: You're a bandwagon Mets fan.
  17. That's like "cool" or "OK!" in spanish.
  18. It's because Cherington is a polarizing subject. Y'all (and I'm including you) have a certain black/white way of looking at Cherington's tenure that illustrates the absolute worse in people. I don't understand why it's so hard to acknowledge he made mistakes (I'm looking at Kimmi) while also acknowledging he did some great things for this organization (I'm looking at you). If there was some level of objectivity regarding the subject, it wouldn't be such a sore sight whenever it's discussed. A lot of it is also written specifically to piss the other side off. Now I f*** around with the Papelbon s***, but that's between maybe 3,4 members and it dies down almost immediately. The Cherington idiocy has been going on for months. For the love of God, do like Elsa and let it go.
  19. May I suggest a visit to the nearest psychiatric ward?
  20. Yeah, I can. No matter how bad the Red Sox may be on a given year I am a Red Sox fan through and through. Honestly this explains a lot.
  21. I'll get back to you with some ideas in a bit.
  22. Don't tell me what I think. It's not about defending Cherington. Cherington, as a topic, is done. He's gone, se fue, it's over, goodbye.
  23. I forgot about that: Sig bet, 2 out of 3: ERA, K's, and another stat or your choosing. Over/Under to be discussed.
