There's a difference between being overtly like a thread policeman and in criticizing Mex. Every single thread Mex started has belonged in an already existing thread.

What's the point of actually considering other people's arguments when you can just post the same thing over and over?

Reyes: bigbux longterm contract after 2006 or go with arb.?
Elster88 replied to a topic in New York Mets Talk
If the only reason you're signing a guy is to "ease tension" among the other players....then you really need another reason. See the earlier posts in this thread for more compelling arguments one way or the other. -
Bret Sabermetric wrote: ="soupcan"] Message me the link please, I'm curious about that. And so, on a gloomy Friday morning, the sad and sordid story of Soupy's fall from the pinnacle of the insurance game to a stretch in federal prison for trafficking in internet porn began... LOL. Dammit Bret, stick around a while this time. No more running off.

Luckily for the fans, we're allowed to make up our minds two years after the fact and talk trash. Kind of sucks for the front office that they can't do that.

Just going on the story Empire was far and away more dramatic.

Edgy DC wrote: Nonetheless, I think we have to judge the trade that was made and seperate it from the trade that wasn't. Oakland was in a pennant race anyway, and weren't selling Hudson to no Mets team trying to scramble back into the race. I meant in the offseason. Keep the players, call it quits on the season, get Hudson in the winter.

BAN HIM!

Alltogether now. BAN HIM!

smg58 wrote: There was no reason not to wait two months. Somebody had suggested in an article that it prevented the Braves from getting Benson, but they got Tim Hudson instead. This is where I get upset. I think if we had traded Kazmir and Huber and (whoever the other rookie was that Pittsburgh got) we could've gotten Hudson ourselves. IIRC, I was unimpressed with the package that Atlanta sent to Oakland. I'd rather have Hudson than Benson and Zambrano.

Please delete the latest post in the Frank Thomas sticky thread and ban the impostor.

With Piazza gone, I'm getting a man-crush on young David. ]boomeroshea: Who is your favorite Met of all-time and why? Wright: HoJo, because he was a great Met third baseman and he could do it all. Plus, he was my hitting coach in the Minor Leagues and told me to say that. boomeroshea: Who is the most physically strong player on the Mets, the guy you would least likely want to face in a UFC match? Wright: I could take everybody on the team (at the same time) but the strongest guy on the team is also the softest guy on the team, Cliff Floyd.

LOL...I deleted out that post, thinking it was kind of pointless. Zvon got to it first.

I'd like to see the Yankees waste some money on Damon and Nomar. Their new team motto could be "All the Guys Who Used to Be Good When They Were on the Red Sox."

I think Hampton's nickname is "Bug Eater". Or possibly "Feces Flinger". Actually those are better than dolphin-face.

It's Tejeda anyway, as we learned in yesterday's thread.

Does the guy on the right have a Pac-Man shirt on?

At-bat music.

We young kids like the black unis.

BJ Bunch refers to the Benson Bunch thread which JD started to compare pitchers with questionable pitching history who had signed largish contracts in offseason 2004.

]Maybe we need a poll Could be. Further analysis: Is it sophomoric? Yes. Is it sexist? Possibly. Is it an obvious line? Absolutely. Did it make me chuckle when I posted it? Yes. Are we spending too much time discussing it? Probably, but I like to beat things to death and get as many dead horse awards as possible. I could've gone with HAHA ANNA BENSON'S A SLUT!!!, but I already used that line in another thread. Edits: grammar and spelling.
