Edmonds on a chat forum

[Transmogrified Tiger]

He comes off like a prick in that Q&A, and I'm not just saying that because it's Edmonds.

 

"Hey, you're a loser."

 

 

Yea.

 

He's does come off as a prick.

 

 

Are you serious?

 

Did you read the question that was asked?

 

It was a legitimate question about what he thought about booing, but he focused on the guy's personal opinion at the end. And if you're going to insult the dude, at least be funny like he was with the half-shirt question.

I'm not sure what you're referring to, specifically. Someone asked him what he thought of the centerfield fans, because he (the person asking the question) thinks they're losers. Edmonds responding by calling HIM (the person asking the question) a loser.

 

What's wrong with that? Edmodns was basically defending the fans in centerfield at Busch Stadium.

Here's what he said about booing:

 

I think it's ok to boo for bad plays.

 

But, when they're booing Izzy just for coming out of the bullpen, I don't think it's right.

 

I personally wouldn't boo the players.

 

And, I think it effects the players and it makes them press.

It wasn't a legitimate question. And it wasn't about booing.

The guy was just looking to take a jab at those who cheered for Edmonds by calling them losers.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I had the questions mixed up. Regardless, he still comes off like an idiot by making that dumb comment, 3 pages later at that.

In a forum like that, the non-prick ignores the questions like that. The prick answers them with prick-ish answers. Wnna guess which one Edmonds did?

[Mark_R]

Edmonds is a douche and always will be a douche. I'd love to see him decline into oblivion.

You are speaking on that of which you don't know.

Edmonds jabs back and forth with the hosts of that show, who also run the forum. That's the way the show works...that's the way the forum works. That is the style.

 

Everyone knows you dislike Edmonds and anything STL. It doesn't matter what he does...you'll say he is a prick.

[SouthSideRyan]

I think that's a gay question. Are you gay?

 

I don't even understand this response. LAME.

Somebody asked Vance a question in a chat?

Save your frustration for someone who actually makes personal attacks and doesn't know what he's talking about. :wink:

Actually there are a few things about STL I like. My in-laws live there...well, um...maybe you're right.

I didn't call anybody anything. I'm not the one who made the rules that definte one as a "prick". All I was saying is that you should be careful about playing by those rules, because it could backfire.

Honestly, no one in the world believes that post was anything but a shot at Vance.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

If the suggestion is that Edmonds isn't the only prick, I could agree with that. In fact, I'm sure we have a few floating around here.

By HIS rules, what would that make him. That's all I'm saying. Like I said, I didn't make that generalization........ HE did. Personally, I don't agree with the generalization that he made. Edmonds isn't a prick for responding, and Vance isn't necessarily a prick for responding, either. I'm just showing him how that sort of connection (responding = prick) isn't a good way to go.

Surely there are better ways to discuss this chat than to determine the criteria for what does, and does not constitute "prick-like" behavior. If there is not a better way for you to discuss it, then please feel free to not post your thoughts in this thread any further.

I assume you're talking to Vance?

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

When have I been part of an online chat?

 

Last I checked, I have little celebrity or noteriety.

 

It's a case of showing professionalism. Edmonds could have and should have ignored the questions. He chose to be a prick instead.

 

I have the same choice every day in my classroom. I can be a prick to some of these little pricks or I can handle myself in a more professional dmeanor. Most days I choose the later, but I have my moments.

Well, you do follow a team that has Dusty Baker on it. So I guess you'd be better at outing pricks than I would.

Godd thought, troll.

I'm talking to everyone. That includes Vance, yes.
