I'm just kidding around but it's not just the Yesavage comments. He's been blasting you for your Yankee fluffing too.

It's not a mortal sin to say that the Yankees are more talented team. 

I understand the Yankees hate and I share it, but people go too far with their Yankees hate to the point where they don't give them nearly enough credit.

Red Sox too, we have certain people on here (I won't name names but if you know, you know) who can watch the Red Sox win 3 titles in a row and still think they are a s*** organization.

Ok that last point is a very good illustration lmao

Grant? Anyhow Term's bang on, I've seen you fellate all of the Yanks/Sox and Tampa today alone... then there was the O's before the season and even after their struggles, you're a Bird.

I don't think anyone here would take great offense if you were to simply state that the Yankees are a more talented team, but you've been banging the drum about how the Blue Jays have no chance against the Yankees for a long time now. It feels like you sometimes refuse to acknowledge that the Blue Jays are one of MLB's best teams this season.

The Yankees are gassed. They are all at home planning their Cancun vacations.

Put them out of their misery tomorrow with another blowout and let's end this thing. It's best for all parties involved.

Do you have a properly functioning brain? You literally have no self awareness, as you were completely torching the front office for not calling up Yesavage after a start or two in AAA and insisting that he had to be called up immediately no matter whether the front office deemed him ready for the callup or not. It's completely hypocritical for you to try to act like other people need to temper their expectations in this situation. You've been serving up s*** sandwich posts all season long and you are going to need to lay in the bed that you've made for yourself as a result.  

Our rotation was in trouble and we needed help, imagine what our rotation would be without him right now.

Also at the time I was under the impression that he had to be called up before September 1st, that's when I was really mad but then that was cleared up. But I though it was important to get a long look at him.

But there's a big difference between wanting him called up because we were in desperate need of SOMEBODY, and proclaiming that he's a Cy Young winner in the making.

You just look like you are looking for a fight for no good reason. Your response to my post is completely disproportionate.

When did I say they have no chance?

I specifically said the Yankees are more talented but of course the Jays have a chance.

In that same post I said the only unbeatable team I've ever seen in my life was KD's Warriors. I also said this year's Dodgers if healthy is pretty close but even they wouldn't be unbeatable. I think it's tough to be truly unbeatable in baseball 

Edit: FYI, I have also said the Jays were the second best team in the AL. So I haven't refused to acknowledge that they are good.

It seems as though avoiding giving MLB an extended look at Yesavage may have been part of the overall plan given how much of an outlier his arm angle and pitch mix is compared to the norm. It is remarkable how much better the rotation looks at this point compared to a few weeks ago when Berrios, Bassitt and Scherzer were taking turns worrying us about how they would perform from start to start. 

I can admit I thrive on having a good rivalry at times, but the tipping point for me when it became gloves off time was the completely disrespectful way that you treated the Bo Bichette injury situation. It was bad enough that you made a giant assumption about the severity of the injury and questioned his manhood over not being in the lineup, but refusing to move on from this and continuing with the attacks on his character after he was out of the lineup with an injured knee ligament was a step too far. I think you carry a lot of board baggage due to the litany of terrible posts you've made this season in particular in the best team season in the last decade, but I'm willing to let bygones be bygones a little bit moving forward if you find a way to avoid the paranoid doomer posts moving forward. It does seem like you are slowly cleaning this up recently so that's as good a starting point as any.

Glad you brought that up. Really glad. 

Because it goes to my point that despite the successes of other teams in the AL East, people on here constantly refuse to give any credit to any team not named Toronto.

So yes I try to act as a counterbalance to the obvious fanboyism that goes on here.

You and others constantly act as if other teams in the American League East never deserve any credit and you call me a bird?

Which by the way I don't even know how that's an insult, maybe for Newfoundlanders. Who the f*** calls people birds?

I knew it was the Bo stuff that got you mad 🤣

I have my feelings about the Bo situation, but I've already said I'm not going to mention him anymore because he's not on the roster so what's the point? Besides at this point it's just beating a dead horse. If he doesn't play we got to win without him, and if he does come back to play, great.

This guy was the biggest proponent of the Jays rebuilding last off season if I remember correctly.

Not everybody obviously, but some people are too dismissive other teams' accomplishments in this division.

Yes and I still believe for the long term we would have been better off doing so including trading Guerrero. I guess we'll get those answers in the coming years. 

But I've also said that I would gladly trade one championship for 10 years of misery so if we get that championship I lay down my arms.

Who never gave teams in the East credit? We just hate them, while you rather slobber all over their veiny dicks ya whore, for shits and giggles. F*ck you.

Really because for somebody that you think is always depressed I'm a pretty happy guy. Having a blast in the last couple of days especially.

It is telling that by simply having criticism of one's team that people believe this actually leads to depression. 

I hope you and everybody else here is having fun with this great ride we've been on.

Right because you thought they were World Series contenders back then?

Oh but you had hope, but you see that's the whole point, you always have hope for a team that hasn't won anything since 1993. But they turned it around, and now those of incessant hope are geniuses? 

I mean if you have hope every year, yeah you're going to hit the jackpot once in awhile. 

But it's been a great ride and I don't know why everyone is looking for a fight today when we should all be very happy. So be happy and stop being so miserable.

Contenders, you're dumn.

Also, it's legit called a JayBooster, something you can't grasp. When the Jays do win, f*** you and the horse you rode in on. True talk.

[Spanky__99]

I despise the *I told you so* year after year, guess what? 1 team wins.

And the Birds have been in it for 4 of 5 years, U SUCK!!!

Oh there's a lot of things you can't grasp, but I'm not going to be vitriolic about it.

I do hope you are managing to enjoy yourself and not dragging yourself down here.
