"To live is to war with trolls..." - Henrik Ibsen
Is GD necessary ?
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
God didn't come to damn but to save, imho
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
Thankful to be singled out as a Christian on any site
I truly believe God is not in the damning business. So to read gd makes my heart cry :(
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
Religion and politics are buzz words
however I am a Christian too, however being that no one actually knows the true name of God, and that most of what we practice is from the Roman Catholics and a load of horseshit, I would say that arguing whether or not “goddamn” is more offensive than “mf’er” or even “sweatypants johnson” is based solely on what you allow to offend you, and not any better or worse.
Can’t stop anybody from offending anybody else, but if it is so easy to leave off the “N” word, it ought to be that easy to leave off “GD”. But if folks don’t want to put forth the effort to be decent to others, there’s not much can be done about it.
Heyward is pretty good
i agree with you
i just think if you start policing “GD” where does it end? I mean, I love that I can type “fuck” and no one cares…but shouldn’t they? Seems like a can of worms I don’t want opened. But if someone is genuinely offended by something, it shouldn’t be too hard to avoid that phrase, or at least try. And anyways, Wagner comes to damn AND save at the same time…
I wouldn't say no one cares....
because I care; it’s not my favorite word to hear fifty thousand times a day. I realize it’s accepted here, though. That doesn’t mean everything should be…..
"It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone." A. Bartlett Giamatti
I love that I can type "fuck" and no one cares.
I care, and have commented to the fact. I hate that in order to be on my favorite teams most informative blog, I have to see that crude word typed over and over each night. Of course, if we are losing, it is used even more. Let’s have Fun but at the same time be respectful.
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
Yeah, but if we aren’t even going to be decent enough people to not refer to Catholicism as “horseshit,” do you really think we’re going to leave off “GD”?

haha, hey I didn’t refer to Catholicism as horseshit, merely the beginnings of modern Christianity and how they evolved to become what we know now.
most of what we practice is from the Roman Catholics and a load of horseshit,
is not exactly what you say unless you like coming onto a baseball blog and insulting other people’s religions.

Well, clearly I didn't elaborate enough.
I was trying not to. And I’m not going to go through all the corruption of the Roman Catholic church from it’s inception to now because I think it’s silly to do so. However I didn’t mean to piss anyone off, I was simply making a point as to the name of God and how it is not His true name, therefore I am not offended by it being used in “vain”.
I have no clue what you feel about Christianity or Catholicism, but horseshit has nothing to do with mine.
Heyward is pretty good
All right, fine
I didn’t think it would be turned into this big a deal. It won’t happen again.

C'mon Bobby.
You used Wags four days in a row last week, then he got the whole White Sox series off and had an easy inning last night. He should be available unless there is an injury we don’t know about.

Ughh this is just not good. I don’t get lots of the decisions today. Why use Heyward as a pinch-runner if he might need a DL stint? Why insist on giving Wags the day off when he should be available? Not good. Maybe we don’t want KK to get a win.
NOW LETS END THIS GAME!!

This is make-up for the flukey loss in Arizona where they only scored because McLouth and Heyward collided.

Think of it this way.
It doesn’t feel so dirty when you think about how the Phillies get to play three “away” games at home. That’s more crappy than any strike call.

The ironic thing is
This was probably his best start of the entire season, but he might be benched if Jurrjens comes back this week.
Wasn’t his best of the year. I’ll go with the 6 innings, 0 ER, 8 K start he had in ’Zona. Maybe even the 6 IP, 0 ER, 5 K start against the Reds.
Heck, that start against Pittsburgh, where he only allowed 4 hits but gave up 2 runs, was a pretty damn good start too. He was unhittable until the 7th, and he just grooved one pitch to Jeff Clement that tied it up. He was really throwing well that game.
Hrm
7 IP, 2 H, 1 ER (a bomb to one of the best players in the American League), and 3 BB. Oh, and six strike outs.
THe only game that can really compete is the game in Arizona.
From now on
Nobody say anything about NOT scoring anymore runs because they want someone to get a save!!!
Anybody else
Feel a horrible since of deja vu to last year’s game where nobody in the bullpen could throw a strike?
I think it was against the Phillies, and we must have walked about five players in a row.
So I pulled out
My awesome copy of Talking Chop 2010 Annual.
It was actually in the first week of the season. on April 8 against the Phillies. Braves had a 10-3 lead going into the seventh inning. Then EOF gave up a single, hit a batter, he exits. Moylan came on and walks a batter and allows two singles. Blaine Boyer (haha) comes in and walks two more! Lastly, Jorge Campillo (haha x2) came in and gave up a single and walk before getting the final two outs. Those four relievers gave up eight runs over five walks, a hit batter, and three singles.
Oh well, at least it didn’t end with a loss today.
I refuse to feel bad. We have had bad calls go against us that have cost us wins. Getting one in our favor is fine with me.

i agree…no reason to feel bad, but the next time we get screwed, i’ll definitely think back on this game

There is no "would" to it

personally, on the slow mo replay, I thought strike 3 was on the black when it crossed the plate, but had very late tailing action such that where received by McCann, it looked well off the plate.
Excellent call by the ump.
