Steff Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 Just like the Colon to NY? Is he here...? NY was a very good "guess". I ask again.. is he here..? Yep.. thought so. :dips*** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick_Bateman Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 Is he here...? NY was a very good "guess". I ask again.. is he here..? Yep.. thought so. :dips*** No he's not here, but most on the board knew that was going to be the case. NY was a good guess, but again, many others speculated NY might be an option as well. NY is a good guess for every top free agent. And if I recall correctly, Andy Pettite to Houston was mentioned by others as well, but you don't see them running up and down the halls of soxtalk.com saying "I was right, I was right". Some people just feel the need to toot their own horn I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 missed the official ceremony - is it rebroadcast on ESPN? It was only carried locally. I'm hoping for a rap parody to take it international. Thanks for asking. Friends again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm not the only one who said anything about this - but since you stuck your nose where it didn't belong you wouldn't know that.. This is directed to a specific poster and he'll get a good laugh out of it when he sees it. Now stop stirring the pot.. unless you want to get burned.

I know you are not the only one who said anything about this, that was my point. And in case you missed it, this is a community message board, so your "sticking your nose where it doesn't belong" argument doesn't apply. People post and people reply. Your message didn't begin with "Hey Joe Blow, I told you so", so who the he11 knows who it's directed to. And if your little "Now stop stirring the pot.. unless you want to get burned" is supposed to be a threat, that's just grand. A threat over an internet message board. Next, maybe we could have a cyber-fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I clarified that my response was to someone specific, yet you responded again... ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch.... Not surprising. As for stirring the pot.. it's not nice to be an antagonistic asshole. Just an FYI. Nothing more, nothing less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were the one who became defensive about it. I was never derogatory towards you, but you felt the need, since your initial reply back to me, to name call and threaten me, then have the gall to tell me to act like an adult. Unreal.

Hey, let it be man. Steff is a great poster, but she took offense. It did seem like a slam, but it is no big deal. Just please let it be.

Rex Hudler Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Hey Steff, with all due respect here, I don't think Patrick is way off here. You said Colon was going to New York like you had inside info. You were so positive, I believe you even said "Book It". Sometimes we are right and sometimes we are wrong. Nothing wrong with admitting as much. Just because someone called you out that you don't know doesn't mean it was meant to be malicious. I was thinking the same thing when I first read your post. He just posted it first. Relax and don't take things so personal. You were wrong about Colon. That doesn't make you a bad person. Not the best prognosticator, perhaps, but that's not a horrible thing. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps it was Corg who said "book it"..? But I specifically told Aboz - who the eye roll was intended for - that I was just repeating what I was told. That comment coming from any regular here would have not been taken further than in jest... That's my problem. And no.. I wasn't wrong. I said he would definitely not be back here in May. And he's gone... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
