greg775 Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 For some reason people are afraid to start new threads. It's prolly because a lot of people get mad and jump on you if u start a new thread, so they post in catch all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But let me ask you a question. Right now I want to open a thread entitled, "We should have kept Buehrle." But I would never do that cause of the scorn I'd get. So I'd put it in catch all instead. My question to you is ... would that be a fair thread to start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My question to you is ... would that be a fair thread to start? Go for it. Ahead of time, I will remind you that Buehrle was part of multiple late season collapses with the Sox (he was especially brutal in 2006) and his contract still sucks.

My question to you is ... would that be a fair thread to start? The problem with that thread is not the catch all thread. It's that the topic has come up in probably 3-4 other threads, maybe more, across the entire trade deadline time. I wouldn't pounce on you becasue of the catchall thread, I'd pounce because its an idea that we've heard before repeatedly unless there's something new and thoughtful to contribute.

Sometimes the start of a thread makes the topic more passionate however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 The Catch all isn't going anywhere. It is perfect for the little tidbits that don't need their own threads. Important things, like what is wrong with Paul Konerko, can always have their own threads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
