Stems from a January 2000 column Peter Gammons wrote about John Rocker. Gammons wrote that "one of the game's best pitchers ... has splattered teammates with similar comments and boasts that he will never play without a no-trade clause to the two New York teams." Although Gammons never stated the name of the pitcher, he left enough clues for Rob Neyer (as well as others) to conclude that the pitcher was Mussina.

What are fu3ksessions?
A fu3ksession is when the database gets fu3ked up. It also signals that it is time for all at-work SoSHers to actually get some work done.
What are warnings?
A warning is a way for a Moderator/Dope to call attention to something you did. There are all types of possible reasons for a warning.
Will warnings ever go away?
There is certainly a possibility for warnings to go away or be reduced.
Can I be banned without 10 warnings?
You certainly can be. There are various transgressions that can get you immediately banned, and long term abuse can also get you banned without 10 warnings.
If I sign up today to talk to Gehrig38 will I be approved to post?
Likely not, since the waiting list to post is a few thousand people deep. However lucky for you the lurker you can speed up the process by either A) posting here on the wiki, B ) befriending a current SoSHer and getting on his/her good side. C) Submitting NSFW pictures to the right people and hope they're liked enough.
What does it mean that I'm an "Unsubscribed Member"?
Unsubscribed members are members who have not purchased a subscription. With an Unsubscribed account you will have the same posting rights as lurkers but be granted read access to all of our forums. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to purchase a subscription - this is necessary to help defray the costs of running our own server and various monthly fees we pay to run this joint. This shit isn't cheap! Also, unsubscribed members only get a partial access to all the SoSH forums. To get full access, members should purchase a subscription. Any questions send a PM to Sille Skrub. He's a nice boy.
