Just like you pretend to know more than A Rod ... well, at least you THINK you do

Why are you attacking me? I'm not the one claiming to know more than a major leaguer who has played for 16 years and says this had never happened before.

I said "anyone who has played baseball knows this doesnt happen".why is that such a difficult concept to grasp?

What you're saying is this:

Anyone who disagrees with you doesn't know baseball.

It is condescending, and childish. I don't care for the argument one way or the other ... it was just the way you try to make it look like disagreeing with your point would mean that the guy hasn't played baseball and doesn't know his stuff ... let me take it to an extreme ... what if I were to say?

Only people who have been raped by Butch in junior high school would call out A Rod !!!!!!!!

its not that big of a deal, I do think it reflects badly on gay rod though. I doubt most Yankee fans would say this is how they want their team to act. They have a proud tradition and all.

And him lying about what he said and how out of bounds in baseball it is for him to call off the 3rd baseman as if he was the Toronto shortstop pisses me off. at least own up gay rod and stop acting like a whiny little "who me, what did I do?" turd all the time.

what he did kinda messes with the integrity of the game. its bush league. anyone ever see slap shot? funny movie. "shes a lesbian, a lesbian!!!"

ps- sorry WVU I got a bit heated. We always have got along good

Mr.Smith · May 31, 2007

watched the video from fucnluc. he clearly said "mine"

didnt he try to say after the game he said "boo?" what a complete turd.

he knows damn well it was bush and Im sure his teammates are embarrassed.

I would rather have a person TRY like A Rod than have someone like Bobby Abreu just mail it in and collect his paycheck.

That being said, I don't think it was bush league to do what he did ... but lying about it is kinda childish ...

Say you did it ... say you had to do something because of the five game losing streak ... say you did it out of desparation

So cheating is OK (on & off the field) but not admitting to it is what makes it childish? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

gAy-Fraud jockers are so delusional.

Ask yourselves this: would Jeter or Ichiro do it? And why not? Don't they want to win too? There's your answer right there.

I don't consider it cheating ... I said as much.

there a good reason why a defense cant call out signals to purposely mess up the offensive signals in the NFL. It messes up the game too much. The offense has to be able to call out signals for the game to function right, so the NFL stepped in and made it a penalty.

in baseball, a shortstop has to be able to call off a 3rd baseman or a left fielder a shortstop. when you scream mine in a 3rd basemans ears he doesnt have time to think about whos voice it might be, its a baseball reaction, he moves out of the way for the shortstop, especially since like I said, no baserunners ever do this. "Mine" means move out of the way your stortstop has called you off.

This isnt an "old school rules" thing which are crap anyways, its a basic part of baseball that you cant mess with. does any baseball fan want to see this type of thing the norm? its a garbage play

I don't know if anyone mentioned this but their is no way he does that if he thought he was getting another at bat. He knew they would throw at his head.

WVU · May 31, 2007

It's all good Mr. Smith. I just do not agree that it never happens. It is comical to me. This is not going to end baseball as we know it. You and Illini seem to take this a little too extreme.

Mr.Smith · May 31, 2007

I would not at all be surprised if the next team NY plays someone head hunts gay rod. Another team may well take matters into their own hands before Toronto gets another crack.

MistaFlava · May 31, 2007

Well he is obviously lying about what he said...check out the video and fast forward to 2:20 of the video where they zoom in on it and he clearly yells 'MINE'.

Alright now you're throwing this way out of proportion. Jesus christ, another team?

Haha, that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

MistaFlava · May 31, 2007

What I can't understand is why the Jays didn't throw right at Giambi which would have sparked a brawl and they could have all taken shots at A-Rod and duked it out with that *****. Makes no sense.

If the defense yells "HIKE" to induce a false start, they are assessed a 5 yard penalty. Baseball needs to institute the "gAy-Fraud" rule... so this doesn't happen again. It's childish and stupid. Why doesn't he just do cartwheels whenever he hits a HR? It's just as bush-league. Probably because he knows the next pitch would be at his head.

Illini is overboard on this one...he's acting like A-Rod pulled out a switchblade and knifed the 3rd baseman...

I guess that takes me off the hook :discuss:

seriously this is just plain silly.

fucnluc · May 31, 2007

When Journeyman made the "biggest homer at the Rx thread" I said I would nominate Smith but I can't take him seriously.

It's comments like "I would be surprised if another team will throw at him" which support that belief.
