What damage I am doing? My words/actions have no effect whatsoever on the game and it's results. The players determine the outcomes of games, not the fans.
Like I said, if you cant see it, then I feel really sorry for you.
You really think a player being paid millions (in some cases, hundreds of thousands) to play baseball every day really give a **** what some random fan says/thinks about him? Even if he does, oh well, he'll get over it.
I know for a fact that some things fans say can not only effect a player, but cut really deep. I'm guilty of having done it, and I know the effects can be lasting. You cut up not just one player, but everyone in the lineup, including the manager. Can I take back some of the things I've said, no, but I can move on along different path and try and make things different.
You think you know baseball, but you've never shown anything to indicate that you do. When I read your posts, I see a punky little snot nosed kid standing in the middle of a schoolyard calling kids across the street names, thinking he's impressing someone. Well, like that kid, you're not either. What you do, is make it many members of this board not want to come into the Gameday thread because it disgusts them to do so. Why? Because they are forced to wade through certain posts.
Thanks for helping keep the Gameday thread underpopulated.
