  1. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you already make this thread before? Yep... You did. Thanks for the update that you still hate them though, thats great.
  2. Last night I envisioned my ideal lineup being something like: Pie - obvious reasons DeRosa - Good OBP, almost league leading P/PA Lee - Duh Soriano - Not sure about where he and Aramis go though. Aramis Floyd/Murton platoon Barrett - His bat isn't what it used to be it would seem. Theriot - See Barrett Pitcher That'd be a pretty sweet lineup imo.
  3. I am ridiculously close to buying one.
  4. FLOYD I LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!
  5. Dudes OBP is nice and his ISOD is nuts. I like seeing this too. Also among the very top league leaders with a 4.35 P/PA Patience rules
  6. Glad to see Dero in the two spot where he belongs.
  7. There seems to be such a strong assumption that all the other parties involved are negligent.
  8. Perhaps because I think the drinker himself should be just as much and probably more accountable for his actions than the bartender. The drinker is more accountable. But he's not the only one accountable. I'm aware. Just saying I disagree with that.
  9. if hancock wasn't drunk and the tow truck driver/driver was negligent, would you be ok with suing them? Please explain to me how the driver of the stalled car should, in any way, be held accountable for this. What could he have done? Apparently gotten out of his car and pushed it off the road with his bare hands so he might prevent deaths of people dumb enough to drive drunk.
  10. let me guess, you also think the mcdonald's coffee lawsuit was completely ridiculous too. It was. Let me guess, you are someone that likes to never accept resposiblity in life. To each their own. Wow I've never seen someone actually agree with that lawsuit.
  11. It's anything but fact that this accident wouldn't have occured if Hancock was stone cold sober and not talking on a cellphone. There's no earthly way to conclude that. For all we know, the car behind him would've gotten munched instead if Hancock had managed to avoid it. In the security cam video I saw a bunch of other cars get by that tow truck. Willing to bet those drivers were sober.
  12. they can Thats incredibly sad. It might sound cold but I really hope that father doesn't get a cent. How is that incredibly sad? Bars/bartenders are not supposed to overserve folks precisely so that situations like this can be avoided. Perhaps because I think the drinker himself should be just as much and probably more accountable for his actions than the bartender.

  14. you have no idea what you're talking about. like it or not, if these parties were negligent and if their negligence contributed to his death, they're going to be held responsible. i don't know why that's so hard to understand and why everyone thinks it's so unfair. Exactly. Look, several different people may have acted negligently that night. Josh Hancock absolutely, positively did. And much more so than anyone else involved. Nobody's disputing that. The bar, bar manager, tow truck driver, and stalled vehicle owner may or may not have also acted negligently. That's TBD. But here's the key: the law does not prescribe that only the *most* negligent party can be held liable. The law prescribes that *all* negligent parties can be held liable. There is however discretion in the law whether people want to acknowledge it or not. And what freaking bar hasn't "over served" someone? If he was able to sue them for that every drunk who even gets in a fender bender could by that logic sue the bar they just drank at.
  15. you have no idea what you're talking about. like it or not, if these parties were negligent and if their negligence contributed to his death, they're going to be held responsible. i don't know why that's so hard to understand and why everyone thinks it's so unfair. It should be rather obvious why people would see it as unfair. The negligence of the other people, if there even was any, pales in comparison to that of Hancock's. I noticed plenty of other cars going by just fine in that video, yet he crashes because A.) He was very drunk B.) He was high C.) Idiot of the highest degree. Its hard to place blame in small areas like who put out enough road flares or something when the person who crashed shouldn't have been behind the wheel of a car to begin with. The basic fact is, this accident wouldn't have happened if Josh Hancock hadn't made horrible decisions that ultimately cost him his life and its really hard to say that these other people should be punished as a result.
  16. I think "issues" is putting it lightly. Don't act like a waste of life is probably a better place to start.
  17. A hundred million dollar team better be able to score off of a fat guy whos almost 50.
  18. i'm pretty sure Keener is in the minority regarding his anti-IMB sentiments. .
  19. I'm getting confused. Is this post in reference to baseball or your girlfriends? OH SNAP
