Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted August 4, 2015 Posted August 4, 2015 Min won the Prime Minister's Trophy in 2013 and nobody can take that away from him. It was worth it. Worth it for me too, dum-dum
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted August 4, 2015 Posted August 4, 2015 I have a Prime Minister's Trophy and I can honestly say it doesn't mean s*** to me.
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 4, 2015 Posted August 4, 2015 I have a Prime Minister's Trophy and I can honestly say it doesn't mean s*** to me. Can I have it?
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Wow, I hadn't realized that Joe Mauer legit sucks now. The Twins must be thinking about moving him back to C? I mean, it doesn't matter that his knees are safe if he's a $23M replacement-level 1B.
TRM Verified Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 cliffs? Insulted Spanky for being bedridden with his back injury. Said it was a normal insult that he and Spanky throw back and forth with each other all the time. I pointed out there was a difference between calling someone a meat and insulting them for a debilitating life changing injury. Spanky says it offended him. Jonn says Spanky doesn't mind. Spanky says he'd like to curb stomp his face after the comment. Jonn thinks Spanky is still joking.

TRM Verified Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Jonn is a very stupid man People point out to Jonn he may have crossed a line. Recommend he apologizes. Says Spanky has said worse over the years. Spanky knows its a joke.

TRM Verified Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 I forgot to tell you guys I was drunk Saturday night and got into a pissing match with o2 after I reported him to himself for abusing mod privileges. HE WAS NOT AMUSED.
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 GDTs are so ridiculous. Navarro strikes out: "f*** off fatass" "useless fat piece of s***" "f***ing fatty strikes out again" That can't be healthy.
GD Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Boxy laying the SMACKDOWN Don't do your f***ing job or anything o2. Wouldn't want anyone thinking you're competent. For the record people: Being offended by o2's racist jokes = banworthy Personally insulting another poster's life threatening injury = not banworthy (unless it is Lord o2) You ban good and contributing posters willy nilly (I'm not including me in that) but mouthbreathing idiots who do far worse somehow escape. Almost like you think this forum having a solid contribution from idiots is important.
TRM Verified Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 at this point, o2 has reached the same place that Randy did in LoD. Whether or not the s*** he takes is fair or not, his mere existence is so controversial and distracting that all will not be well until he is dismissed.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 If he had a consistent record of acting rationally and applying warnings before taking action, I'd have no issue. But when you ban people for petty things, you set a precedent, and it's showing now that he doesn't think what Jonn said was worthy of a ban, at least to show Spanky that his presence is valuable even if he doesn't feel that way. Not like that f***brain contributes anything noteworthy anyway. Also, his "warnings" usually include him calling you stupid and possibly challenging you to a fight. That's my issue.

Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 lol, has this actually happened? I should say goading might be the better word and a verbal fight. He doesn't say "I'll beat your brains in, pansy" or anything like that.

BTS Community Moderator Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Pollock for Appel was immediately one of the worst trades in DDL history.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Pollock for Appel was immediately one of the worst trades in DDL history. BTS: MiLB #60, MiLB #100 Sammy225: Neil Walker BTS: Torii Hunter KingKat: Roy Oswalt, Mookie Betts BTS: Mark Trumbo GeorgiaPeach: Lance Lynn, MiLB 2nd BTS MiLB #14 Dr. Dinger: Chris Archer Maybe, not sure though. Has some tough competition.

Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 LOL some of those are truly dreadful
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Did BTS actually trade Mookie, or the pick that was used to take him? I think it was the latter.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Still tho, that Trumbo trade is hilarious.
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Betts trade shouldn't be there. It was Hunter for a 5th round pick, but I couldn't trade the pick mid-draft, so KingKat told me who to pick. Value-wise, that was a very solid deal. I think the others were all a lot better at the time than Pollock for Appel.
TRM Verified Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Everytime we rehash the Pollock for Appel debacle I end up with the biggest s*** eating grin on my face. My work colleagues always ask me what's up.
