Baron

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:36 PM) There is plenty of evidence to support it. You just choose to ignore this. And whether you believe me to be a fool or not is of no consequence to me, Baron. Really where is the evidence then? I had evidence backing my argument up. I want to see yours.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:32 PM) Yes, I think it did too. Which is the reason you should drink. There is a great Sinatra quote which also applies. I dont want to drink thank you very much. I just think your entire argument was pointless,called out people and had absolutely no evidence to support it. All of this combined made you look like a fool.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:29 PM) Ahh, when I said "By George," I didn't mean Carlin. I knew exactly what you meant. No need to explain. George Carlin's quote did apply though.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:27 PM) Probably because you don't drink, Baron. I see you missed the George Carlin quote. He is actually the one who said that.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:24 PM) By George, I think we have found the elusive solution to your chronic uptightness... I have a very low tolerance for stupid bull****.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:23 PM) Throughout the thread you've stated several times, in perhaps every way possible, that the White Sox have money to spend right now. Are you honestly trying to amend that now to be a conditional statement? That was his original post.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:21 PM) No, I am the Kenny supporter...DA will remind you of that when you sober up. I havent had a drink in my life actually.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:19 PM) Well if I had known you had his number this whole time I would have asked you to call him a long time ago! You understand real life better than me though. Maybe you should try to give Kenny a lesson since your so knowledgeable.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:18 PM) What affirmative statement. I mentioned Gammons report. I said one of them is lying. I didn't say which one. I did say if Gammons was accurate, KW's crying poor is, once again, BS like it was before Peavy, Rios, Jackson and Ramirez, and for that matter Dunn, Konerko and AJP. I have no idea why anyone would listen to Kenny crying poor. I remember this right before we acquired Peavy. I bet he was laughing his *** off that night.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:17 PM) Me neither. Ill give Kenny a call and ask him.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:14 PM) Apparently you are drunk. Not at all. I always reread my posts before I post them. Maybe something you should try to do from now on.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:11 PM) You have a very low threshold of proof, my friend. Yeah I dont trust those sports writers like Peter Gammons who has been doing this for most of his life and has sources all around Major League Baseball.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:10 PM) Excuse me? I am having trouble understanding you. Every watched Pulp Fiction? I guess not. Im typing in perfect English. If you cant read thats not my fault.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:09 PM) My what is mad? Do they speak english on what?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:07 PM) What is your evidence? Do a quick google search on Soler and the bids. Its a easy 5 second google search.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:05 PM) What exactly is your agenda here then, Baron? Because you certainly aren't adding anything to this discussion (although I don't know why that would surprise anyone that is accustomed to reading your posts). Apparently your mad. Im not the one talking down to people here and saying they need to be talked to like children.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:03 PM) I think it's pretty clear why I didn't know that we bid on Soler. Its fun to ignore evidence

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 10:02 PM) The position I do take is that I do not need to audit the team's financials to understand their general financial position. How do you do that? Every team is unique. Its not the NFL. How dare you question him! You dont know the complexities of real life!

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 09:57 PM) It was only apparently pointless because you aren't trying to engage in an actual debate, but instead because you are carrying out some other agenda. I had no other agenda than to see why you didnt know that we bid on Soler. You seem to think if it doesnt come out of Kenny's mouth then we dont know.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 09:54 PM) That's why it was an analogy...an analogy is not meant to have anything to do literally with the actual subject of the conversation. It's an explanatory device because the audience was not understanding any literal or other means of explanation. Or just like your entire argument. Pointless.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 09:52 PM) You opened the nitpicking pandora's box, not me, my friend. No, you simply can't take a little blurb that says we were in on Soler to mean we have a secret cache of funds that Kenny is instead using to buy furniture for his home with instead of improving the club. We have a history as good as any team in baseball of adding players at the deadline for the sake of improving the club, even when it's probably against fairly long odds that we will win the division. If you have an issue with that, as many do, it should be that we are squandering available funds trying to improve the club, not hoarding potential funds for other reasons. What does this have to do with you disputing that we bid on Soler? Which has been well documented it seems.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 09:47 PM) Wow. Worst post ever. Yeah that literally has nothing to do with White Sox. Unless he thinks that Jerry and company are broke.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 09:46 PM) I wasn't aware that we had a bet, Baron. Excuse me bid. So nothing to add?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 09:35 PM) First of all we don't even know they made an offer on Soler. Secondly, I am sure the investors of the Club have money they can pull from when it is necessary. That does not mean it is considered generally available rather than utilizing traditional revenue sources such as gate revenues. You guys are both being incredible. This is not a publicly traded corporation, it's a freaking privately owned baseball franchise. So because it didnt come out of Kenny's mouth that means that the sports writers who have sources are wrong about our bet?
