????

Do we have "Jews" in the front office?

Does it matter that we do?

????

Edit: I see now that I'm repeating what tzill and Mays posted...Don't mean to throw more gasoline on, but damn that was a dumb-ass post.

I don't think enough people can object to this nor too strenuously. That certainly was a "dumb-ass post".

Otherwise, he has been a good poster from what I remember. Some people just need reminders, and people need to speak up.

 

[tzill]

Geez...isn't Hairston ever going to retire?

Nah, he'll just clone himself again so that we always have our quota of 8 Hairstons in the league at any time.

 

[tzill]

Nope. Not when Hanley is going to be doing something in nearly every game to piss me off.

Before Romo hung a slider and HanRam was 0-4 with the collar, was he "pissing you off" then?

 

[tzill]

Were you all not telling Cam to lighten up when 'Gay' terminology is used?

My B if you found it offensive.

I'm not gay.

I am a Jew.

Get it?

Agreed. FTR, Larry Baer is the Giants President. He goes to the wrong shul though.

Whether you are Jewish or not should not matter. As a human being, you should be equally outraged at any slur, whether it be racial, ethnic or sexual. Fag is just as offensive as Jew when used as a slur.

The exception, of course, is if one is an employed, white, male, married, monogamous, heterosexual, Conservative, Christian father.

Then it's open season.

So I state "nearly every game," and you parse that as "every AB". Really?

Aah, but now you have shown your ignorance. Show me where I have used a slur against a Christian. My beef is with RELIGION. Those who follow it have not been defamed by me unless they have used their platform to hate.

You have to realize that just because I hate religion does not mean that I hate those in the religion. Dissent is not hate.

Not directed at you. Just to the world in general. Apologies if I miscommunicated. Carry on.

Not quite. YOU don't get to pick what is more offensive to ME. That may be your position, but it isn't mine. We can agree that all slurs are ignorant and unnecessary, but you don't get to decide what is more offensive to someone else. Of course it matters. The "N" word is offensive, but not nearly as offensive to me as it is to most black folks.

Really, that's pretty simple.

you didn't answer the question. And I strongly doubt he'll be pissing you off "nearly" every game.

Occasionally, sure. Like most backups.

Dude, he's 4 for 11 with 3 runs, 3 rbi's in 3 games. He's not even fucking close to Arias. Let it go. He also made 2 great defensive plays last night, you wanna knock off the defensive WAR analysis now??? See, I can do that too.

He ain't the Hanley of old, but he's still a difference maker. Arias was a difference maker for out 27 of a perfect game. With the impact he'll still have on 2012 and deep pockets of their new owners, your argument gets less and less valid.

Some folks have trouble admitting they're wrong. Even about silly internet arguments about baseball.

Ramirez is a career .300 hitter , that's not a backup .

Ramirez was also injured in 2011 and played less than a 100 games

 

[mistgl]

I'm not gay.

I am a Jew.

Get it?

Yes, I get it, and I apologize. Seriously, I mean it, more than that half assed My B, which should have been a real I'm sorry to begin with.

We lost, I was irked, and it was a shitty thing to say. I forgot about you being Jewish, not that it should matter, Jewish or not, I shouldn't have reduced myself to using any race as an insult.

Like I said, I'm sorry, truly.

SSS. I'm looking at his last 800 ABs, you're looking at his last 8 games.

I guess it depends upon your definition of "difference maker," but he's not one for me. Starting level players are difference level to me.

That doesn't explain 2012. He's pretty much sucked for 2 years.

No worries, dude. We're good.

Like I stated earlier, you must be working a lot of hours, or you're letting your twenty-something female intern post as tzill.
