    The NFL and the National Anthem

    OK. I believed the protest was mainly directed at police. I was wrong. Secondly, many veterans feel it is disrespectful. And yes, like you pointed out,some don't. And as far as what I "care" about, whenever i was somewhere and people talked or whatever during the Anthem, I always, politely...

    The NFL and the National Anthem

    First, let me make clear I have zero issue with someone protesting an obvious, or even what they perceive as. injustice. I completely and fully support that. I DO however take issue with who they are doing so against. They are protesting at a sporting event, who plays the National Anthem to...

    So the farm system has had a disastrous start

    You're a Yankee fan. I'm a Red Sox fan. Either side getting pissed off from time to time is inevitable.

    So the farm system has had a disastrous start

    You kinda did in a roundabout way, but this is much better. I apologize if you felt I was attacking you. I wasn't. Just what I perceived (rightly or wrongly) as a contradiction.

    So the farm system has had a disastrous start

    If you had said this right from the beginning, I wouldn't have said a word. I shouldn't be name called and threatened with a suspension because I can't read your mind. This wasn't what you said. It may be what you MEANT. But it's not what you said. I think there was a lot of misunderstanding on...

    So the farm system has had a disastrous start

    I'm not whining. Just calling you on your contradiction. You said it yourself. "I think one of the few remaining ways to utilize a financial advantage as a big market team is to pour extra money into scouting" Now you're saying it's not really a financial advantage, only a few million dollars...

    So the farm system has had a disastrous start

    If your scouting is due to a financial advantage, then how can something due to scouting not be because of financial advantage? And I am breathing fine. Thanks for your concern.

    So the farm system has had a disastrous start

    You said that the scouting success was the result of the financial advantage of being a large market team, then claimed recent success was due to scouting, not some financial advantage. How can it be that the recent scouting success is due to the financial advantage, and then NOT be due to the...

    So the farm system has had a disastrous start

    Teams number of scouts: 1. New York - 153 2. Boston - 114 3. Cleveland(!) - 105 No other team has more than 93. So this claim that it has little or nothing to do with a financial advantage is hogwash. When you can employ up to two or three times more scouts than some teams, it's because you...

    So the farm system has had a disastrous start

    Where did i say it was "more likely"? I said "could" be. I agree saying very easily was not an accurate term and i shouldn't have said it. But my point stands. He claimed that it "has to be" the Yankees. I was merely pointing out that it "could" be other reasons. Likely? No. But possible.

    So the farm system has had a disastrous start

    It very easily could also be the result of other teams scouting very poorly, and over-valuing the players they wanted in return.

    Does MLB Have an Umpire Problem?

    I fully believe a player should never show up an umpire, no matter what. You can disagree with calls and question him. That's fine. But don't try to embarrass the guy either. That being said, the umps should also give the players the same amount of respect they demand. An ump should never show...

    The Unwritten Rules of Baseball: Your opinion?

    FTFY. Having "more than one" is OK if you're having Schaefer, but not a Yankee fan friend.

    Indians pull Chief Wahoo from life support

    Don't put words in my mouth. I never said other Native Americans aren't or shouldn't be offended by it. I never said it was harmless. All I said was that I personally didn't find it offensive. I certainly understand why some Native Americans would.

    The Goat Thread: SBLII vs Eagles

    So if Nick Foles never wins another playoff game, it is still "dumb" that we are upset we lost? I freely admitted that i didn't give him enough credit. Yes, he played great. Can't take that away from him. But it is not "dumb" for me to be pissed off at how bad our defense played. If you give it...

    The Goat Thread: SBLII vs Eagles

    So now Foles is the next TB?? Really? So which do you think is more likely? He wins 2 more out of the next 3, or he never wins another one? I know which one I will put my money on. I am fully aware I am not giving Foles enough credit. Losing blows and it is sour grapes. But PUH-LEEZE stop...
