    I'm 3 1/2 hours away, right in the middle of BEST FANS IN BASEBALL NATION. :)

    Here's the stuff on Wainwright-Gonzalez:

    You can see Wainwright sitting next to Carpenter in the dugout every inning, so it's pretty clear where all that big-baby crap comes from. They really are kind of insufferable that way. Christ. What did Gonzalez do, clap and cheer?

    Don't forget the Cardinals and the Yankees are the epitome of class in sports.

    The Yankees, running around telling everyone how much better they are than them, are so very classy.

    Is "pussy" really an acceptable putdown in 2013?

    Why don't you just call 'em homos?

    Even the idea that you would compare men to women, as a means of putting them, down is outdated.

    Did I hurt your feelings?

    Between the two of us, you're the republican so you're a lot more misogynistic and homophobic than I am.

    Don't start trouble where there is none. Why don't you jump someone for using the term butthurt? Oh right, that wasn't me, so you don't care.

    You didn't hurt my feelings.

    You just made yourself look like an idiot -- again.

    You're easily offended. You see homophobia and racism around every corner. Yet, you use a term like "pussy" without even thinking about it.

    In 2013, it's not an acceptable putdown. It just isn't and you should know that.

    Then go find every other instance of someone using a putdown you don't approve of and point that out also. I'll be sure to look for you doing that.

    Go ahead, I'll wait....

    YF, I just did a search for the term "pussies" and got 12 pages. So make sure you go back on everyone of those posts and tell people that term is not acceptable.

    I can help, I don't have anything to do until I take my gramma to the doctor later, you wanna get started now?

    Bodie has an interesting take on sportsmanship -- his favorite player is Puig, his avatar and sig are Richard Sherman, and Johnny Manziel is the devil himself.

    My gosh, you love to play the victim, don't you?

    It's not an acceptable putdown. Why can't you acknowledge that?

    You'd raise holy hell if someone called someone else a homo, so why should you get a pass for using "pussy"?

    And, I did get on Baron just the other day for calling someone "welfare trash".

    I like to call out idiocy and hypocrisy any time I see it.

    Actually Matt Kemp is my favorite player.

    But you're not pointing it out to anyone else.

    If it's not acceptable to use, it shouldn't be for anyone. So why single me out?

    When you tell every other person on every other thread that word has been used, I'll buy your bullshit. But not before then.

    You're the board police, so go point it out I'll send you some links.
