No, I wanted to quote the one where you said you were perfect. Immediately after you made a 2nd grade mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTruth05 Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 A couple of the leads came from posters who have been long time members with no history of trolling, not sure why there is a need to mock them like trolls. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's especially magnified because of all the misinformation in the media over the least 2-3 weeks. It's been way too speculative leading to a lot of cynical responses.

Seriously. This isn't a Peavy44 situation (or even Ron if you think he's full of shit). B>W is a hell of a poster.

Yeah....I presume there was legitimate truth to what was reported. Very long time poster who I thank for sharing the info. Whether it ends up happening or not...I'm not going to doubt the legitimacy of the source. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 1 minute ago, spiderman said: No mocking, but I do question posters (of any history) claiming to have inside knowledge. Many years ago, I had a source. A guy I worked with was/is friends and did some business with one of JR's sons. He once gave me some info, and I was mocked. It turns out about a half hour after I posted who the Sox made their main target, he was traded to Atlanta. So I was a liar, etc. Later it did come out that the Sox did indeed make a serious effort at the player. So people do get random inside info. This particular poster doesn't appear to be hunting for recognition and doesn't appear to have a need to have everyone think he's an insider. We have had a couple of those. Someone who was right once, either on a guess or random info. Then decided to take their new "insider" status and run with it. Eventually, it's easy to spot. Mocking isn't going to encourage anyone who does have info to post it. I know I never would anymore. If I had anything juicy there are a few posters I would send a private message. But I don't work with that guy anymore, so that probably wouldn't happen anyway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
