"Now real hate, I save that for D-bags like ARod."

Classically hilarious one-liner - love it!

lol, all I know is that anyone bad mouthing my team is gonna get bad mouthed, as Floyd said call it player hate if you want, but hate is hate and it is now his fate. You are obviously just a softy W.

Too bad some BBTIA commenters are softies who don't know how to defend their team from them fightin words. Can you land a punch in a pinch W?

lol

I don't care if you call me a "softie" - whatever. It's not that I can't "hate" either. I "hate" - at least in a baseball sense - ARod, who by all accounts is a doosher first class. But Berkman is a good guy - and a player I have respect for. I don't think that makes me a "softie" - I think it just makes me mature.

But I do like your youthful enthusiasm, Joe!

How young do you think I am W?

Mature people aren't baseball people, screw being mature if it means I can't take down a Ranger hater, you have to be like a kid to play baseball at least in the most important sense.

Like Hambone said after the ALCS with his daughter with him: "baseball is about kdis."

Of course the one thing we can all agree on is that I'm pretty sure those were some fightin words directed at AROD for when he left the Rangers talking about how switching to the Yankees "was like going from playing with boys to playing withe men." Yes, AROD is the biggest idiot in baseball and Berkman is now a Ranger hater. I don't give a crap if he is from Texas. The Longhorns are from Texas....

LOL - NOW I understand - you're an AGGIE ! ! ! :)

Actually I'm a Horned Frog. I have no love for the Aggies, but plenty of hate for the Longhorns as most Texans do.

If you happen to have gone to school there I guess you are just handicapped and I won't hate on you too much, similar to the way I treat Yankees fans who were born in or around NYC. For those Yankees fans who have no home near NY I reserve my worst diatribes.

Joe were you born in fort worth?

Yes. Why am I scared to say so?

LOL - man you keep the hits rolling, Joe! Love this claim you make: "but plenty of hate for the Longhorns as most Texans do."

1 - it's a baseless, unsubstantiated assertion
2. - it's a fallacy (ad populum)

You are projecting your own half-baked, ill-bred conceptions on the entire state, which is an insult to Texas.

at this point i'd prefer any jdb post to any joe post. at least jdb's had a hint of humor

idk just wondering .. are you from the west side?

I suppose I am from the west side in a way, in a way sort of.

W,

Are you an Austin Texan or something, or worse, some kind of liberal? Even within the great state there are those folk who are a little backwards from the rest of us, that's just he way things have to be I spose.

Joe

Martin,

If you are suggestin that we know each other please don't tell me who you are because I'd be embarrassed to know someone who said we ought to go out and get Millwood. Shit man, that was awful. ;), just kidding. Are you from the west side of Fort Worth. Where did you go to high school? Arlington Heights? Paschal?

Joe

Someone hit the switch and vent the jdb smell please.

No i live in the South Side. My brother goes to Paschal. I like the houses over there lol there fuckin HUGE LOL

Im still in high school bro lol ima senior at Tech

Martin,

Lol man, hilarious. I'm quite a bit older than you then.

Joe

Yeah alot of ppl are older then me here. I just thot it was cool that we probably have seen each other before and not know it lol

"Are you an Austin Texan or something, or worse, some kind of liberal?"

Like trying to have a discussion with a cartoon.

lol, I noticed you didn't answer the question though.

Martin,

Do you play baseball at The Polytechnic Institute? When I played against them they were a horrible team, which means even if you suck you might be able to walk on, not saying you suck though. I don't think we ever played them at Tech though, seems strange. Do they even have a team anymore. Does your brother play at Paschal?

Joe

Nah trimble tech bro
My brother sucks at any sport hes a good drumer tho
and polly still has a team they still suck tho

and poly is in east side

So do you play or what? I remember I didn't make the team as a freshman (the coach didn't know me or something), and then I went back as a sophomore. The biggest mistake of my life was quitting baseball so I could work at nights instead of practicing, so I could buy a car. Horrible mistake, it haunts my dreams, dumbest thing I ever did. The varsity coach let me work out with the varsity guys too, and I threw it all away for a piece of shit Dodge, not even the throw away Dodge, it was for the insurance.
