Are the pirates really the real deal this time?

Guys, I checked and he's from Pittsburgh. So maybe legit?

Why are we inquisition-ing a guy who's asking pretty harmless questions?

 

[Darkstone42]

Well, there's the suspiciousness of posting on the Pirates board exclusively so far despite him not being a Pirates fan...

 

[pixburgher66]

Mayyyybe he picked the wrong teams in the profile? I dunno? Anything to start conversation is a-okay in my book. But, I'm not in charge...soooo, proceed!

We'll figure him out if he isn't legit

Much the same way that we'll figure the Pirates out too.

Why are we inquisition-ing a guy who's asking pretty harmless questions?

Because it's a post-CBS and ESPN world around here and we're paranoid as hell.

I would be more comfortable with him had he addressed my question in the very first response to his post about why he posted here first despite his stated allegiances.

 

[Darkstone42]

Okay, yes, they're the real deal.

When a team can blow a golden opportunity that badly, then walk-off with a guy who I would usually say has no business on a Major League roster, that team is the real deal if for no reason other than luck is very much favoring them.

Working on it. I haven't yet figured out my mod powers. It's like Superman learning how to use his heat vision...

Or the Greatest American Hero learning how to fly?

How about a mix of the two.. .a step below hero... a step above bum...
