    Blake Swihart is the Adam Sandler of the Red Sox. He had some good moments starting off, but he never really showed greatness, has hung around far too long based on the inexplicable belief of his supporters both inside and outside the industry, and every time I see him I want to punch him in the neck for what he's still doing to something I love.

    - From the 2004 ALCS Game 4 Gamethread. A reminder that no game is over until the final out is recorded, and things will always get better. Misspellings unchanged as a reminder that Yankees fans are just terrible.

    i feel the same way about Sandler, but attributes it to a generational thing.

You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."

    I do understand what you say about Sandler. Of course you happen to be much funnier person than Sandler. No one here is better than Swihart in what he does.

    That's the biggest question I can see. It'd be like Einstein taking the time to argue with ...... me.

    Even Einstein would take his fair share of flak on a baseball forum.

    there probably would even be a few here who would think that they could compete with him intellectually as well.

    Only if the argument was about physics. You'd win that argument if it concerned baseball.

    Is that considered bad game thread mojo? I thought I saw game threads with titles that were very abusive toward the opposition in previous years.

    For me it seems like it. When you've already split the series and your best player is on the DL, it's hard to really strut around like it'll be a cake walk. You can infer the other team isn't good, but saying they suck and are buttholes (which seems out of character for Thunder) doesn't sound like good mojo for me. If Thunder always posted like that maybe it wouldn't be a big deal. Just seems odd to me.
