HOW MANY F-- THREADS ARE WE GONNA HAVE FOR THIS KID HOLY CRAP?!?!?!?!?!

+1

I hope we get the same thread when he is 1 for his next 12.

Just like we need to hear about Michael Taylor, or Tommy hanson, or Brad bergerson, or Rick porcello, EVERY DAY....

It is what it is.... The board aint changing, because the people here aren't changing. It's not a big deal. It used to bug me, and I have done it myself at one point.... The kid likes Beckham, so what

Let the kid post about Beckham if he wants
I know it is too often and so does everyone else but who are we to decide what he should post?
Maybe by reading this thread he might realize that his constant posts about GB = annoying people. He can either stop OR do it to purposely annoy

Ballerskrip is right on. Many people post about other players on a constant basis (Lincecum, Taylor, Denker, B Harper, etc) and don't receive the hate JO gets. Heck, one member is a given to post about a certain company and give a play by play about every single card from their higher end that makes eBay

Let people post. If you don't like ---- Skip it. If it gets to the point where the posts are taking up space on the main page (say if he makes multiple ones just to intentionally annoy then mods will take care of it)

He is excited about a guy who he invested in and a player who player for his favorite team

i mean i didn't really invest in him. bought some cards for the pc and sold when i saw they were high for no reason. i know it's okay for people to post about a guy who just got his license but i can't post about a guy helping his MLB team win 5 straight? jeez

not pointing a finger at anyone but i don't say jack $hit about anyone's threads. why take the time to even post in here if it annoys you? skip the thread like i do when i don't care what the thread is about...

So who would win this ultimate threat match?

Chuck Norris vs. Matt LaPorta vs. Ryan Braun vs. Evan Longoria vs. Justin Upton vs. Buster Posey vs. Gordon Beckham vs. all the Razor exclusive signees vs. Stephen Strasburg vs. Live.com?


Hmmmm? Anyone care to take a shot? I am torn.

I don't see a problem with this thread. It's not like he's pimping him out to sell, he's a white sox fan. I hate the pimping threads, where guys are trying to get a jump in prices for their prospects (a prime example is that person, I can't remember who, talks about Brad Bergesen all the time).

That would be me. Surely you exaggerate, BIG TIME. I mentioned when he pitched yesterday you nitwit. Next time I will just make a seperate thread since everyone seems to be doing that lately :?

There is no problem with this thread at all.

Gordon has been hitting extremely well, and this thread is probably warranted.

Mods merge or lock similar threads here all the time. Why wasn't that done with this one? A nearly identical thread was created the day before as has been pointed out earlier in this thread.

*shrug*

I saw the thread, but I didn't go digging for it.

Maybe someone that regularly moderates chat will do that. The mod staff merges threads using their best judgement, and while there are guidelines and common practices for this, there is no concrete description of what is to be merged, and what isn't.

You may have just blown my mind with this post. This pretty much sums up half the first page on any given day :)
