8/23/2013 Brewers at Reds

[Brutus]

Have you never watched a ballgame in your life, whether on TV, live or whatever? It's not an internet thing, it's a fan thing. They react during games, and often times overreact. It's always been that way and it'll be that way til the end of time.

I still don't see the point. I don't see how adults are justified in going on a message board and acting a fool because they're frustrated about a baseball game. We all get frustrated. But it doesn't justify overreacting. This is a place for discussion not venting.

Flair to center for Cozy. 6-4 game. This game is NOT over boys. Not with the Brewers pen and our bats. Not by a longshot.

[OnBaseMachine]

I'd pinch hit with Mes here.

[ProfessorTofty]

Even if we lose tonight, at least this has been an exciting game.

[Norm Chortleton]

Haha did ya see me?

[Mutaman]

That fellow Ludwick was a nice late season pick up. good job Walt.

[Mutaman]

Even if we lose tonight, at least this has been an exciting game.

I'd rather win a dull boring game.

Grumpy old man in upper right corner?

[New York Red]

Aren't you the one that is always upset when players are criticized in threads? And you're upset because overreactions are being "judged?"

Nonetheless, if you have a problem with my calling out overreactions, feel free to take OBM's approach and send me a profanity laced private message chewing me out.

If people have the right to overreact, I have a right to respond to it and point out that it's an overreaction.

The difference is they're reacting to the game, while you're criticizing and judging other posters. Not even close to the same thing.

I never get "upset" about anything said in a game thread, but the constant negativity about the players on ORG gets old, and ironically many of the same posters who are guilty of it on that forum, are the same ones who are so critical of other posters in game threads. Bunch of hypocrites, IMO.

And I have no desire to send any private messages, to you or anyone else. I'm glad OBM went that route though, because someone needs to open your eyes.

What do you have against grumpy old men? Your day is coming.

[George Foster]

Was that not a perfect place to have Mez who has been swinging a good bat to go in for hannigan?

I mean it's not about keeping a guy happy...it's about winning games.

[Redsfansince72]

i would have pinch hit Paul in that situation. I saw Hanigan had a homer in his career BUT, he hasnt hit well all year

[Brutus]

Screw you and your ****ty attitude. You are nothing to me. You are nothing but an arrogant jackass.

Also, private messages are meant to be, um, private. Got it? You will be reported if you continue to take private matters public.

If you want this reported OBM, then please report all the facts. That's all I ask...

[Ironman92]

Out of curiosity, are you basing that off the sum of 5-6 games you've seen him against the Reds? It seems you remember him hitting a homer of Cingrani and a double off Leake, and therefore he must feast off fastballs.

The guy has a grand total of 77 MLB plate appearances. I think it's far too early to say what he can or can't hit.

He can hit Reds pitching.

Paul hit previously.
