Aramis Snubbed?

[TruffleShuffle]

I paid Tim in hookers and blow for my modship.

I'm willing to make this the standard custom, too.

 

It just so happens that I am a pimp but more so in the specialty categories (trannies, amputees and the like)... Business really picks up around Halloween.

 

(Apologies in advance to any mods who may be trannies or the like).

 

tranny tiger was about to ban you

Generally people who are being sarcastic don't go to the trouble of linking a web page to their post that agrees with their post (albeit in a non-sarcastic way). I mean, was the blogger/poster/"contact" being sarcastic? Must we assume so because the point of view is so bizarre? If we were to assume that every bizarre post on even just NSBB were "sarcasm" then NSBB would be even too sarcastic for me.

 

even if your sarcasm detector is completely broken, it's safe to assume that an NSBB moderator is not going to be a meatball who thinks that aramis is lazy and zambrano is one of those fiery latins.

 

That's sarcasm, right? I know Tim is about as Pro-Cub as I am but I'm pretty sure that he wouldn't hold that kind of standard to be a moderator. "I'm sorry, you think Ramirez is lazy? You're fired." Regardless, I would have had to have opened Laura's profile to even know that she is a moderator. I don't even open my own profile. Hey, maybe I'm a mod!

 

If you have a problem with my "lack of a sarcasm detector" PM me. Or create a new thread "Why Does Scotti Suck So Much?"

 

Hint, mods have green names.

Which is why they are always so sarcastic.

He's on an absolute tear.

Chipper is now on the DL, Polanco is ailing and may soon be the same. Aramis may yet get his chance.

Ken Rosenthal says Scott Rolen is making it over Aramis. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[BCVM22]

Awful. Absolutely awful. The players are almost as bad at selecting All-Stars as the fans sometimes.

This had better be a bad joke.

That cannot be right. Hell, Chase Headley and Ryan Roberts would be better alternatives than Rolen.

[BCVM22]

Rolen was next in the player balloting after Chipper, hence the travesty we see before us. Blame the players.

[OleMissCub]

Well, again, the main reason Aramis is getting snubbed is because of his explosion in the last two or three weeks. At this same time exactly a month ago he was sitting at 2 HR, 21 RBI.

[Tryptamine]

MLB had a chance to get right something that was wrong, but instead they decided to make it even worse. The ASG has zero meaning.

Rolen has a 278 OBP

Bochy: Sandoval has a shot to be on all-star team because of polanco, chipper injuries.

I blame Vance

Aramis will replace Placido on the All Star team according to Len, not official yet but being reported.

Well now they say Aramis has declined it.

Interesting...

Would it still "count" as being an all-star this year, or does his declining negate that? Not that counting it means much -- you'd think there'd be a financial incentive to being named an allstar, not that it would represent too much to most of these guys.

Supposedly he didn't think he was gonna make it and planned a family vacation. Hence the reason for him declining.

So do you think the first article bashing Aramis for this will come out tonight or will they wait until Monday? I'm sure it will include something about him not caring about baseball and being too lazy to go to the game itself.

PITTSBURGH -- A report from San Francisco Chronicle writer Henry Schulman said National League All-Star manager Bruce Bochy told ESPN he probably will name Aramis Ramirez as Placido Polanco's replacement in Tuesday's game.

 

But the Cubs said Sunday that Ramirez has opted not to go.

 

Ramirez said Saturday that he didn't care if he was chosen or not, and had plans to travel back home to the Dominican Republic.

It does not count. Since he declined the invitation he is not an All-Star.
