CubKilla Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 I'm happy for Jon. It's about time all those stats the Garland-loving stat-heads threw my way turned into direct results in the W-L column for the month of April. But as Harvey Keitel said so eloquently in "PULP FICTION"..... "Let's not start sucking each other's dicks just yet." There's still plenty of time for Judy to make an appearance or five.

LosMediasBlancas Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 QUOTE(CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ May 2, 2005 -> 03:29 AM) I could never tell if you were a lover or a hater . You saw his good points and his bad ones. The point is just to have a lil fun. Are you the thread police? I am and this one sux, just having a 'lil fun'.

WilliamTell Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 I was a supporter of Garland before the season also. But I guess I wasn't opinionative enough to get on the list. That's ok though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 I knew my irrational defense of every Sox player would pay off at some distant, inconsequential point in the future... Now don't bring up I was always on the Koch bandwagon.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 QUOTE(CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ May 1, 2005 -> 08:13 PM) I have researched past threads on the topic of Jon Garland prior to this season. Below is a list of JG Haters and Lovers. If you dont see your name on the list it means I couldn't figure out where you stood by your posts or I saw no posts. Haters: Qwerty, Santo=dorf, KnuckleSox1, witesoxfan, Soxfest, Jordan4life_2004, babybearhater, Soxwatcher, EvilJester99, Soxnbears01, poorme, 1549, jeremyb, mreye, mmmmmbeeer, wharris1, Yoda, BigDub, Cubkilla, Aboz56, knightni, IndySoxFan Lovers : Jeckle2000, T R U , CWSGUY406, greg775, Dbaho, soxfan101, Yasny, JDsDirtySox, Kapkomet, Rowand44, ChiSoxFan, Heads22, Palehosefan, DanMan31, HammerheadJohnson, daSox24, BridgeportHeather, TexSox, Soxfan420, FlaSoxxJim, greasywheels161, Reddy, Jake, ChiSoxmatt, GeneHondaCivic, MurcieOne and of course CaliSoxfanViaSWside. This is just a sample list . A lot of the haters posted over and over. But many of the haters also said Jon would be fine with them as a 5th starter so it seems everyone got their wish , Jon is a #5 and is fulfulling his potential. I won't even try and act like I wasn't a Garland hater before this year. lol. I'll happily eat as much crow as you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCsoxfan Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 What is Garlands contract status? How many more years is he locked up? Sorry this is off topic, I just didnt want to start a new thread just for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightni Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 Mostly, I considered Garland to be an underachiever. The only time I was a "hater" was when he was whining to the media last year about being booed by the home fans. http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?sh...02entry267702 http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?sh...84entry293384 http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?sh...29entry301829 http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?sh...17entry301817 http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?sh...58entry346358 http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?ac...ndpost&p=391624 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightni Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 Brando was way too confrontational for my taste. Plus, he would get personal with people. But, I'm not going to "bust" on people who can't defend themselves. That would be unfair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Critic Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 (edited) I'm not on the list because I'm neither a JG hater or lover. I've always been just "satisfied" with Jon. He's been a valuable, consistent 12-game winner, but not anything to get really excited about, not even for himself. I love the results so far this year, though. EDITED to add that I've always hated the "Judy" nickname, just because it's not funny or clever. Wowzerz, you're calling him a woman.... :rolly Edited May 2, 2005 by The Critic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Lopez Ghost (old) Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 I always ripped on Garland because I thought he was too passive and would never be more than a .500 pitcher. He's proven me completely wrong. I couldn't be more delighted about it either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 I think that I am more comfortable with him out there now that we have better defense, since he's a sinkerballer...and I think we're in better shape with him as the 5th starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyho7476 Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 I haven't been here long enough to get 'classified'....but I was never a hater, just frustrated by him...and I'm loving seeing him kick ass now. Go Jonny Boy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
