Why exactly do you deserve credit for being wrong about the Phillies re-signing Cliff Leigh? | I'm not wrong and how come i'm not surpised you couldn't spell his name right.

I make an innocent post and you beat your chest like Tarzan and attack me? For what?
I tried to make piece with you a few weeks ago and you blurted out my personal post to you on this board...
You're nothing more than a stupid asshole... You're internet scum..
Do you want to keep this up or make peace? | Whatever, I really don't care. I didn't come in here beating my chest and attack you, I questioned what you'd heard about the Phillies signing an extention with Lee, and it turned out simply that you knew nothing but you continued to try and argue your way out. You were wrong, move on and quit arguing with me about it.
I'm not attacking you because I have something against you as you seem to think, I actually like your posts about the Coyotes. However, just like anyone else, when you make a dumb comment that is wrong, people will call you out. The way to solve that isn't talking about the loads of e-mails sent to you begging you to come back (which I don't think anyone believes you received) or futilely trying to argue your way out of past statements, it's to be right from the start or own up to mistakes.

You're nothing more than a weak asshole! | Yeah, making peace in a PM where you insult me and question my manhood, really taking the high road and trying to make peace. You send an insulting pm which sounds absolutely preposterous, I'll do what I want with it. You're an idiot who likes to distort the past and makes things up left and right.

Rattler, I hope you never, ever complain about personal attacks after referring to me and another poster having fun in a shower. Sure we called you out for being annoying so don't go cry to robdog about this like a little bitch.
It is funny to see you get your ass handed to you in the majority of your threads so I hope you stick around if for nothing else it gives me a good chuckle.
You still have yet to refute any of the points we have all made when you were the one telling someone they were being lazy and not looking up information. "Hey you are lazy for not looking up the wrong info"...sweet!

For those who actually follow the Phils, here's my thought on the Lee contract. Gillick was never a fan of offering a starting pitcher more than 3-year contracts. Amaro is cut from the same cloth. Yes, he could go 4-years but I really find it hard to believe they will go longer than that. Now if you're Lee, even though you have a great chance to win a ring here, money talks. Assuming he has a good year next year, Lee will see a Zito-esque contract similiar to 7-years/$126M. That is not something the Phillies will do. That's just not their philosophy-right or wrong. As much as it pains me to say it, the Yankees will....and will most likely go even higher (CC, Burnett, etc). Why take 3-4 years from Philly when you can get 7-8 years from the Yankees?? Not exactly the same scenario but I see the same think happening to Werth. It sucks but when you have a chance to cash in, you take the money.

Wow this has gotten a little out of hand and quickly once again.
People should be able to discuss and challenge each other WITHOUT direct insults or personal attacks. If people are sending threats in PMs, that is absolutely not acceptable and those should be forwarded to me immediately.
I do not want to have to close this thread, so please get your arguments on points and NOT at each other.
Thanks.

ENOUGH. One more off-topic remark by anyone and this thread gets shut down. Knock this high school bullshit off.

Thanks. | What he said. Robdog has more important shit to do around here than play assistant principal. Don't make me go enforcer on your asses. Here in the real world I painted my office walls black to intimidate subordinates.

1. It is not fair to criticize a lack of action when you fail to contact mods or admin. It appears the topic has not existed long and the fracas even less. I can state I did not get a PM or contacted about this matter. I only learned of it today after reading another post about personal attacks. I do not read all the threads and would not expect admin, super mods, mods or other regular poster to do so either.
2. What the hell has gotten into the water here at SRM? I read this entire thread and found the content marginally addressing the issues initially raised while the post quickly devolved into the equivalent of fraternity brothers fighting over the pool table. I am aware that there are posters who do not like each other, painfully aware. That being said, we do not have to collectively get after each other at each opportunity that presents itself. We have better things to do. If you feel something crosses the line, contact admin, super mods, other mods or me after you try to get the matter resolved in good faith and remain unsatisfied, and we will try to help in a reasonable time and in a reasonable manner.
