2016 MLB Regular-Season Thread

Figures. I'm not a Pirates fan. Any Pirates fan who hate Huntington is clueless. He is a big reason why they have a window of opportunity. It isn't his fault ownership won't allow them to take full advantage of it.

 

Fart is the one who claimed they were right to give up with two months to go when they were only two games out of a playoff spot. Take it up with him.

I'm just saying they have been a weaker team since then, which is proven by their losing record since the Melancon trade, and that they should have been buyers rather than sellers at the deadline. I also said all along that they could still get in. Seriously, some of y'all are so desperate to pile on that you aren't even trying to understand what is being argued.

 

I said that in July you need to take a hard look at positioning, your books and make decisions.
It was not meant to be for them this season, so why not try to get something for nothing.
Which is exactly what they fucking did.

 

Bingo-Bingo!!

 

You said they were in contention for nothing, which is inaccurate. They were two games out of a wild card spot. Then you tried to shift the argument to say that wild card playoff berths are for losers, apparently forgetting that the Giants were a wild card team when they won the World Series in 2016. The very best part was that you actually tried to double down and argue that a team that won a World Series was a bunch of losers.

Now that all of it is failed, you are trying to shift your argument again. Just acknowledge your failure. There really is no shame in it. Really, I'd mock you less if you were more honest about all this.

The Pirates did what they usually do, they put the bottom line ahead of the product on the field. It was cheaper to be a seller, so that's what they did.

 

The strangest thing is that you care what the Pirates do and yet ...

 

Can I chug an O'Doul's this time?

 

I like to talk about baseball and it is part of an ongoing discussion on this board regarding the flaws in MLB's financial system. I also lived in Pittsburgh most of my life, so I still read the Pittsburgh papers online.

 

Do you masturbate after each of your SJ mic drops?

 

That you think a SJ.com mic drop is reason to masturbate should be of great concern to your loved ones, if you have any.

 

No, I think that you think that you are dropping the mic and think that it is an occasion to jack off.
