WCSox Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 8, 2009 -> 06:54 PM) so who are you supposed to boo??? good baseball players?? booing is a message to the manager and GM as much as it is to the player. toby halls fatass sucked too, i didnt feel bad for him either How about saving the boos for big-money prima donnas who don't get it done in the clutch? Or PED users? Or jerks like Albert Belle and Barry Bonds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigruss Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Apr 8, 2009 -> 08:55 PM) how about you boo at the end of the game if you lose booing individual players is f***ing pointless, just like your arguement So if you have a bad GM, then you should cheer him on? If you have a bad owner, you should accept it? I understand that it doesnt help the player when he gets booed during a game, but you know what, he shouldnt be in that position in the first place, so what is really the only way for fans to show their frustration with the crap that is out there, its by booing the player that sucks to make their point that he shouldnt be playing. Sucks for Wise, but thats how the game goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Fans can boo whoever they want. Also I believe many fans are booing the situation not Wise per se as there really is no reason to not like Wise, he is not an MLB player but he is not going to refuse the assignment or the money.

Given the circumstances, we have every right to voice our displeasure with the lead off spot. please tony, i know you would not be one of the boo-birds at these games.

Princess Dye Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I dont buy the whole thing about "they're not booing Wise, they're booing the situation" If this is the case, there should be boos elsewhere. They were booing Wise 3 at-bats into the year, some report it was even earlier than that. If it's meant for KW and his inability to provide a top of the order, then evenly distribute it amongst the other guys who arent producing at the top of the order.
