2009 MLB season discussion*

[Headspace]

We're not trolling. The Yankees have been spending tons of money and it hasn't been producing.

Quit taking shit so personal. Losing isn't so bad.

[Cephius]

Hey, if you want to have an intelligent discussion I'm all for it, I love talking baseball. If you don't want someone to take things personally, posting "butthurt" "crying Yankee fans" and "but its so fun to troll you" isn't the best way to go about it.

Plus... I was talking about one game. 17 games into the season is a bit early to say someone isn't going to win the pennant, isn't it? Unless you're the Nationals...

[Headspace]

Intelligent, yankees...

This is all too much.

[Heian]

Since when is the baseball thread the new hotspot for trolls? Is this your new training ground or something?

In short: cut it out.

They see me troll'n, they be hatin' I'm a Red Sox Fan it's what I am required to do.

In all seriousness it's something I find hilarious, the Yankees keep losing and can't find anything to blame, you spent millions and millions of dollars and can't get the wins you think it should buy you, so thus you begin to look at anything to blame to rationalize the losses. Yeah you guys had an amazing line up with Torre, so he leaves, you guys buy up more talent and try to repeat it but it's not working. Keep trying to find excuses on the lack of wins.

[Cephius]

lol, I'm done, you guys are beyond pathetic. Let me know if you ever really want to talk baseball.

[Heian]

lol, I'm done, you guys are beyond pathetic.

Hey if it makes you feel better you are kicking our asses right now.

Annnnnnnddddddd

Elisbury just hit a home run now it's tied lol..........

and Pedroia got a base hit.

[Cephius]

Yay, Burnett imploding, listening to Fox announcers, and dealing with Red Sox trolls who can't spell the names of their own players. My day doesn't get much better

Hahaha now there is something we can both agree on I hate Joe Buck and the rest of the Fox Commentary.

Edit: And the fact that I can't spell, I was too lazy to google.

[Cephius]

Even the NESN announcers don't bug me that much, at least they're knowledgeable. Tim McCarver has problem said 99% of dumbest things anyone has ever said about baseball. I think he compared Burnett to Frank Sinatra before...

[Heian]

God damn I love Jason Bay.

problem? Do you mean 'probably'?

[Cephius]

Yes... probably. Though its more like definitely at this point..

[Rhinox]

probably auto-correct feature.

[Akiyama]

Gotcha. The wording just confused me. Not trying to be a rude grammarhammer or a smartass D: Just didn't understand what you meant. McCarver is a moron though, along with Buck. Totally agree.

[Cephius]

Not sure what either manager is thinking here either. Joe left Burnett in there way too long, is Francona trying to return the favor? The Sox have an amazing bullpen..

EDIT: Yes, apparently he did. Why would you leave Josh in there with 110 pitches?

[Heian]

Can we fire Tito and Girardi?
