GOOD GUYS

by RonGuidry25 on Mar 24, 2009 1:45 AM EDT

One good thing about the Mets is that they have no controversy surrounding them. They still play in the big apple and the biggest media market in the world, yet they go about their business and don't make waves or have the big controversial star making waves. It's a team to be proud of and I hope the World Series is in sight for this bunch of good players and more importantly good guys.

I would say this is

automatically generated generic post spam but there’s no link provided. Overall, this is a lame post and not in the awesome way ala HELLO HELLO. Where’s the anti-rec button.

Alas, he is no Paperman.

BAD GUYS

one bad thing about bad teams is that they have bad things about them. they braves are a bad team that plays in a bad city. i hope the the braves burn in the fiery depths of hell for all eternity. This is what should happen to bad teams, and more importantly, bad people.

HELLO HELLO MR WILPON. WE WANT THE MANSION NOT THE CONDO.

Harsh

But yeah, this post sucked. Somewhere, Ron Guidry is rolling in his…bed.

WHAT THE FUCK

One good thing about this site is that it has good, substantive discussion. It is delivered via the Internet and HTTP, the medium that brings us YouTube comments and 4chan, yet it goes about its business and doesn’t consist of vapid drivel or inane dipshits posting vapid drivel. (Except for at the moment.) It’s a site to be proud of and I hope that no dilution of the signal-to-noise ratio is in sight for this bunch of good posters and more importantly good writers.

Whoa...

Never thought I’d see the pedantic Anonymous use the word ‘fuck’.

Absolute rubbish

Who do you think you are Ronguidry25? I’m ashamed that you even use my sacred name. Do you know for whom I pitched my entire career? The New York Yankees. Why would you even put my name on a site dedicated to the other NY team. You have tarnished my name and more importantly the name of the greatest sports team ever. Kudos to you.

bizarre

Especially the way this comment concludes with “Kudos to you.”

I’m going to rec this, then flag it as trolling.

is this meant to be like the scene in Fight Club where Edward Norton beats himself up?

This comment upgrades the whole incident to prime, Grade-A trolling for lulz — for which I say, nice job. Kudos, even. Enjoy your short stay here.

Are you saying that Jesus Christ can't hit a curveball?

Yeah, this thread is a train wreck, so why not just randomly use one of my favorite baseball movie quotes?

No need to mention the author of this one:

This may sound a little West Texan to you, but I like it. When I’m talking about.. when I’m talking about myself, and when he’s talking about myself, all of us are talking about me.

by LOUtheMETandNATSfan on Mar 26, 2009 9:51 PM EDT reply actions

Lou, you can't make it that easy

Any reference to “West Texas” gives it away, and there’s an old saying in Tennessee, I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee, that says, fool me once, shame on…shame on you. Fool me…you can’t get fooled again.

All of MLB players could take a lesson from the WBC

The Japanese and Koreans had a blast playing the game. It was like watching kids. It was great. They had fun, celebrated and smiled. Nothing wrong with it. I’m sick of this old fashioned and staid attitude about celebrating. Who gives a damn? Go out there and have fun! Sheesh!
