Cubs sign Soriano

[Guest]

How is he overrated?

 

Please no stats involved.

 

Right on, man!

 

All this twaddle about "stats" is just one more attempt by our oppressively monolithic Western culture to subvert your deep-seated natural instincts and to denigrate the rightful primacy of your sociocultural background and condition by subjugating you with it's fascistic "ideas" and "facts." This cult of heartless, dreamkilling fascists plots to rip us out of the rich cultural tapestry into which we were born, and to rend us from the abiding connection to our cultural roots which is the source of all truly abiding nourishment and sustenance. Thousands of endangered sac bunts die every day, and what do we do?

 

But you can see through this--you and perhaps you alone can see through their imperalistic claims of "objective truth" and obsession with illusory "facts." You and perhaps you alone can see that they wish to tear you from your natural impulses-- the exhilaration of exciting plays unmediated by reflection. You and St. Morgan may be our last hope-- to protect the sanctity of pristine baseball-in-the-moment experience and anecdotes-around-the-fire from the fetid conspiracy of these boot-licking statistics lovers!

 

Down with the fascism of facts!

 

 

 

 

 

Or not.

Thank you.

When I left this thread at around 6:30 EST, we were discussing the Soriano signing. I come back from a concert at about 11:30 and people are discussing Soriano's EqA on weed.

 

 

What did I miss?

[Fred Hornkohl]

i'm not a big fan of drunk NSBB'ing... i'm always tempted to say something that would essentially ban myself.

 

That's half the fun.

 

Speaking of which, I'm completely sober at the moment... but we'll have to see if it's still that way in an hour.

 

"have you ever discussed the pros and cons of alfonso soriano's EqA... ON WEED?!?!?!

 

Hell.... I don't even know what Soriano's EqA on weed is !!!

Soriano's EqA on weed is something like 7.389.

 

Far out, man !!!

That was my first choice but I ran out earlier today.

 

I'm going for chocolate milk. Thank you all for you help, be back in a minute.

Shiner Bock is the correct answer. It's the one thing that makes me proud in life to be a texan.

Your opinion has my curiosity piqued. I would truly be grateful if you expounded upon it so as to further enlighten me.
