We must take action...

Thanks for all your help. We were robbed of a win and no one is going to do anything. Lets just suffer under miserable umps who will continue to rip us off. I cant believe no one here actually cares... :angry:

No one here cares..? Did you not see the posts from everyone pissed off..?? So what do you propose we do Roman..? Is it going to change the outcome of the game?

 

If YOU want to do something, do something mature. Not booing at the All Star game. That just plain stupid.

Great steff. We posted angry posts on a message board. Its not even the mlb run board. If anyone here really cared they write the problem to Selig and his band of idiots. But thats too hard. I dont care either. My word wont change anything, thats why I tried to get your guys help. Whatever, well just continue to suck and lose and no one will ever care that this downfall started because some idiot with the visual capacity of a bat screwed up a critical call. Im embarrassed to be a Sox fan...

Wow. Embarassed to be a Sox fan? That's a strong statement dude.

 

Writing a letter to Selig will do nothing. Do you think Cooper made the mistake on purpose? I highly doubt it. I hate to defend him because he did absolutely make a mistake, but he's only human man. I just wish the crew would have overturned the call when they met after JM came out to argue. That didn't happen, and it's in the past.

 

And our downfall hasn't started yet man. We're 12-10, and while that's bad considering who we've played, let's hope some stiff competition will get us to kick it into gear. Sometimes talented teams play down to their competition, so let's see what happens this weekend vs. Minnesota. If we can't get up for a series at home vs. the Twins, I will concede that this team is in major trouble.

 

If something horrible, such as getting swept, occurs over the weekend, I wouldn't be shocked if JM gets fired Monday.

Oh geez.. now you're embarassed to be a Sox fan..? You crack me up. Roman.. EVERYONE saw the play. Trust me.. it'll get talked about. You need to relax. Now.. back to my initial comment.. if you boo at the All Star game, I'm kicking your ass! ;)

Im gonna be like Clevelands dog pound and hurl bottles at the ump. :) Not really, Im pretty outrageuos but not that much.

 

And one case of another person on this board who speaks his mind is apu. Hes on the other side of the political spectrum but he says what he thinks. Apu, I respect you for that...

Of course we care.

 

But, nobody cares more than Joe Crede does, yet he treated it like he's a veteran and he basically dismissed it as 1 game and that in the grand scheme of things, it's not going to make or break the season.

 

If the guy who HIT it isn't spazzing out, it'd be silly for us to.

Credes a moron. One game can make or break a season. Weaklings dont argue for their cause. Crede knew it was fair. He should have told that moron Cooper that he thought so. But nope he just sat back and took it all light. When the final standings look something like Kansas City 90-72, Chicago WS 89-73, Im going to be very pissed off. But the way were playing, it might be Kansas City 90-72, Chicago WS 72-90. Were playing like crap. And now the road gets a lot bumpier...

Now Joe's a moron..? Unreal. If he had made a scene things would have only gotten worse. Sometimes you act like an ADULT and you take the high road no matter if YOU know YOU are RIGHT.

The people on this Earth who dont speak their minds are weak. The strong speak their minds and people know what they are thinking. Joes a weakling, a true man would tell the ump what he thought. Thats exactly what I do. People know what goes on in my mind, and can ya guess why? Cuz I tell em. I bet there are people on this board who think Joes a moron and the umps should be booed but theyre afraid to speak their mind. That why my opinions are so outrageuos, because I speak my mind. I dont cover my emotions by naivete and pretending all is good...

Roman.. you should just hush now. You're sounding like a moron yourself. :nono

Do you think Cooper made the mistake on purpose?  I highly doubt it.

Lets think for a moment. I cant think of a certain example but Ill just make one up. Lets say theres a man. And this guy gets mad at his wife while hes drunk. So he doesnt really think about it and bashes her over her head with a rum bottle (wait, that sounds a little like Sosa, well whatever). He made a mistake. Does that mean he shouldnt be punished? No, he should be put away. So Cooper made a mistake, lets fire him, he needs the punishment. You guys are talking about firing Manuel for his mistakes, so why cant Cooper be fired for his?

Would sweeping the Twins erase your embarassment?

 

If so, you are a very fickle fan.

You are comparing a man committing a criminal act against the woman he supposedly loves to an umpire making a bad call?

 

Are you for real in this discussion man?

 

If you are, I think you're blowing it WAY WAY out of proportion, but if you're not, it's pretty funny. :D

This is the dumbest thing I've ever read. Missing a home run and bashing your wife with a rum bottle are COMPLETELY different. I'd say apples and oranges, but even those are too closely related for how ridiculous it is to juxtapose the two.

 

And, if you think firing a qualified MLB ump every for one f*** up will make things better, you'll be really pissed off when you have a bunch of underqualified umps missing waaaaaaaay more than one call every now and then.

We wont do that. Garlands pitching game two. Rack that one up for the Twins already. We have the other two tho... ;)

This is the most ridiculous thread in the world.

Another person lacking initiative, care or determination. People like this piss me off...

If you have so much initiative, why are you seeking our approval in your quest to....have Cooper fired? Is that your quest?

 

If you were such a type A personality, you would take action regardless of others' opinions.

Im comparing the husbands mistake to Coopers mistake. They were only mistakes but they deserve to be punished for them...

This is honestly one of the most ridiculous threads I've ever been involved in. I disagree completely with Roman, but he's of course entitled to his opinion.

 

I think that we will all agree that this Sox team needs to start playing their kind of ball now. That way, all of the bad umpiring in the world won't be able to stop us from winning.

 

If we do what we're capable of, all will be good in "ChiSox nation".

First off, I have idea where to send this message. And is Bud Selig gonna reform the game on the word of a 15 y/o kid? No way. I need the support of a lot of people for him to listen. One letter supported by one kid aint gonna change a thing.

 

And doub, you speak your mind so I respect you for that. But you lack initiative, and that I dont like too much...

OK, so maybe we should just forget about the call. It is in the past. I dont like Cooper at all and I think we shoulda won but its time to let it go. Its obvious no ones gonna help so theres no point arguing over it.

 

This team is trash. We have no bullpen, our offense is struggling. I dont see how they will start beating teams like Minnesota and Oakland after going 12-10 against the crap of the league. I dont wanna see whats gonna when they go to Oakland. :ph34r:

Ooooooooohhhhhhhhhh, you're 15. That explains it. :lol:

 

J/K man.

 

But seriously, you can send a letter to the commissioner's office. Bud may not read it himself, but someone will. Print 500 copies and send them if you have to -- someone with an abundance of initiative will find a way. ;)

You're making a lot of comments tonight that I think you very well may regret in the future. "I'm embarassed to be a Sox fan" and "this team is trash" are not very easy to talk your way out of. I think you better start covering your ass by saying "I'm embarassed to be a Sox fan after the way we played against the O's" and "this team is trash lately", otherwise you'll be called a hypocrite (by me :D) when you start saying "the Sox rule!" and "this team is great!"

The union would never allow him to be fired and the most Crede could have gotten away with saying is that it was a bad call but the ump is only human. The umpires will hold a grudge if you show them up.

Overall calls even themselves out over a full season. Nothing you can do other then b**** when it happens and move on. It should of been Manuel that got ejected. A young player shouldn't be making a name for hismelf by getting ejected. He should of made some comments and I do think he talked to the ump with Manuel and pointed, he just didn't make a scene.
