Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Re: Does Nick Markakis really exist?
Really? You're going to interpret revbob's statement that he meant that Markakis bats 1.000 against the Yankees? That's along the same lines as insinuating that Halladay isn't very good because he's given up runs. You have watched baseball before, haven't you? Man, you would have been fun to piss on Ted Williams batting .406 by emphasizing that he made outs six of every ten at-bats. Cut that fucker—he makes too many outs.ChicoHarris wrote:.361 still ain't close to, as you wrote, "always," captain.revbob wrote:Emphasis on "seems" because the facts back it up:ChicoHarris wrote:Emphasis on "seems," since he's only hitting .300 overall right now...revbob wrote:I think the majority of the Yankees pitchers can verify that he does indeed exist.

I was going to post further on this subject but since Chico was just owned by Matey there's not much left to be said.

No, I'm going to interpret that word he used,"'always," as meaning "always." Batting 1.000 would mean "always."Dr. Medulla wrote:Really?

So, when you watch a game and the announcer says that a batter "owns" a pitcher, do you get upset, thinking the the 13th Amendment has been violated?ChicoHarris wrote:No, I'm going to interpret that word he used,"'always," as meaning "always."

Re: Does Nick Markakis really exist?
I'm going to interpret "always" to mean that you're "always" an obnoxious antisocial hippie more interested in contrarian bloviating than actually conversing with other people in a reasonable, respectful manner. It certainly fits the evidence.ChicoHarris wrote:No, I'm going to interpret that word he used,"'always," as meaning "always." Batting 1.000 would mean "always."

Anyway, I generally like it when a newbie sticks around and lets us get to know him before choking up the board with contrarian stuff. It lays the groundwork for trust and mutual respect so that when differences of opinion are debated, it doesn't end up overly combative.
