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.

by kreese555 on Jun 26, 2010 7:01 PM EDT up reply actions  

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.

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…

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”.

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.

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.

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.

well if it was a legitimate strike, not even Pujols could’ve hit it! /dodges lightning
