Cards re-sign Pineiro

[badnews]

I think bringing up an argument from a topic from another board that's long dead and done I'd long forgotten that has little relevance to the current topic qualifies as having an axe to grind. Maybe it's just me, when I have a disagreement with someone on a topic months ago I usually don't even remember who I had it with or see any reason to dredge it up again. He took some humorous comments I made too literally and militantly disagreed, fine, who cares, I'm done arguing about it and hadn't thought of it since the last day I posted there.

 

I didn't say it was outrageous to prefer Franklin, I just said I didn't think it was typical of Jocketty to commit to a guy who you'd think was a flash-in-the-pan. If others have higher hopes for Franklin, fine, but I don't think much of him.

Settle down. I don't post a ton here, but I remember our Franklin exchange from whenever that was (and it was here, or do you mean another forum on this board?). Someone at GRB had part of it in their sig for a while.

 

My intentions when I referenced it were in good humor, I promise. In fact, I brought it up so you didn't think I was just trying to pick a fight with you about the same subject again. I guess it had the opposite effect.

Well, I guess I was wrong about the axe to grind eh? I think it's strange but it's neither the jab nor Ryan Franklin vs. Joel Pineiro is worth a protracted back-and-forth.

 

Seriously, just comment on what's in the current topic and don't be so quick to get nasty or condescending and I'll grant you the same courtesy, okay?

What is this? I'm not being condescending or nasty or off-topic (until I felt like you took my comment the wrong way and I explained myself). Grant me whatever courtesies you want; it'll have nothing to do with my behavior.

No, you shut up.

The Cardinal magic doesn't work on Piniero, he must really suck

 

 

He was pretty good with the Cards.

 

true, 110 ERA+, 1.2 WHIP. Really think that will last?

Not a chance.

His last 2 years before last were pretty damn bad but up until then he had some good years and 1 average year. Last year with the Cards his #s looked more in line with his good years with whip and k/ip. You can't ignore 05/06 but can't forget the previous years as well as 07. I saw him pitch once last year and he looked good(nice tight curve), he didnt look 5.00+ERA bad.

So that's who that is. Hmm.

Oh, come on man. A good juvenile joke is something to be enjoyed... not something to be exasperated over.

Rob Dibble would never use the word exasperated. His account's been hacked. Shut it down before any more damage is done.
