Soriano Upset over Latest Benching

[NonProfitCow]

Didn't La Russa compliment Lou on having the balls to make that move?

 

After the fact, yes. In-game, he was clearly telling the ump "you sure he's allowed to do this?"

no

Heh. If my opponent did something like that, I'd double check with the ump too.

[BCVM22]

no

 

No what? I never said La Russa was doing it maliciously, just that he was debating it with the ump. Like Laurens said, you see something like that, it doesn't hurt to double-check it with the official.

LaRussa knew it was fine, he was making sure that when Marshall came back from LF to pitch he actually had to pitch to a batter. That way he could PH for the lefty and Marshall had to stay. Probably made sure that Marshall didn't get any warmup pitches as well.

What's this sticky all about?

Ahhh... got it. Nice.

 

 

I had also completely forgotten about wrigley23

How could you?

 

Someone was jokingly suggesting we do another best poster tournament, but I think we should do a "best banned or departed posters tournament". We all know Bum would win it, but deciding who he plays in the final would be fun.

 

Banned Bracket:

Deucebaseman

YanrSlatr

CubbieBum

Mizzou

wrigley23 (is he still an active member?)

ZZ Thorn

reds44

Many many more......

 

Voluntarily left bracket:

Is Meph still around under a different name or did you just forget him?

 

I'm pretty sure he had another name after that, but I don't remember it. I'd probably recognize it if I see it, but I haven't. So yea.

[SouthSideRyan]

Chocolate Milk would roll the Dead Bracket

Forgot about Meph and JC, thought about CM but left him out on accident. RedFlash and CUBSFANINSTL are 2 more I came up with.

Sadly, I totally missed why Mizzou and da Bum were banned

If you don't know why da Bum was banned, I don't know what to tell you.

I demand that the killer of Chocolate Milk step forward and reveal themselves.

You could tell me why he was banned

[Guest]

I remember Mizzou being an epic douche but I can't put my finger on what he did to get banned.

 

Was he just one of those guys, like wrigley, that basically turned into a troll because 99% of his posts were arguing about the same thing over and over or was it something else?

I remember no one really considered him to be anything but an average poster instead he started getting all 'bro' on us by acting like some badass frat boy and also bragging about scalping Cubs tickets for profit. I feel like that's when people started to turn on him. As far as why he got banned, I can't quite put my finger on why either.

 

Same with da Bum. I know 100 reasons why I would have banned him, but I don't remember why exactly the trigger was pulled. I think he went off on people ripping on him about stuff and probably said some things that weren't acceptable.

Maybe that's why Mizzou got banned?

was it just his general body of work that did it? it's taken a while but i’ve been able to piece together a rough characterization based on random references, links to his articles and the MFer windermere sticky.

Mizzou had a complete meltdown of epic proportions and was banned shortly after. Whatever happened to Roast? I don't think I've seen him post on here recently either.

 

My favorite is CubsGM. That dude has done everything possible to post again, including different IP's and zillions of usernames. His dedication is so impressive to the point where we have Outshined_One on permanent watch for him.

[Guest]

That freaking Mizzou character once went on the alt. site that Laura set up when NSBB was having problems and bitched about Tim not keeping the site up. When I called him out on it and suggested he donate some money he went postal.
