NUKE_CLEVELAND Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Lets compare Magglio Ordonez to The Big Skirt shall we? Maggs: wants more money and deservedly so. What does he do? He comes flying out of the gate and is on track for a monster season. When he talks to the press he doesn't cry about money but just passively mentions that he's like a contract he deserves. Skirt: Comes out hitting a K-Laytonesqe .227 then runs to the Southtown and startsz bawling again about his f***ing contract that he signes god knows how long ago. Maggs at least has enough class to let his awesome play do the talking for him when it comes to money and contracts. Skirt is doing absolutely nothing save for running his mouth. God I'm sick of this baby!!! DUMP SKIRT NOW REINSEY!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Frank has an obp of .385 and has more BB's then K's. Anyone that has watched Frank in his career knows that he generally starts off slow and heats up over the summer. A few of his hits have been just right at people, and his average could easily be over .300. I expect him to have a good year, and improve his BA from last year.

Texsox Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Chicago has been blessed with some Hall of Fame Caliber athletes who have also been PR machines and role models. Walter Payton comes immediately to mind. Ryno, Magneson, MJ, Bo Jackson, and a few others also come to mind. Sadly, Frank has never managed to polish his PR skills. Actually if he had better PR skills he could have picked up $$$$ in endorsements, which would have over shadowed his contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Frank had big time endorsements, Reebok, etc. Its just after the strike he kind of fell off, but there was a time Frank and Griffey were the 2 hottest players in the majors.

flippedoutpunk Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 You need to take off your Ordonez-colored glasses and look at what is really happening. Hey those glasses are cool. BTW, didnt Frank have his own baseball game before? Big Hurt Baseball? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandoFan Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 Class? Winning trumps class; as long as neither Hurt or Maggs are beating their women with rum bottles or telephones, I don't care about their attitude. Just give me a 1000 OPS and you can make as many stupid and/or self-aggrandizing remarks in the papers as you want. YMMV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
