Pivoting away from the problem doesn't solve it, banks.
You'd rather talk about the Mets than the fact that the Sox abandon minorities on their "team", leaving them on an island of despair and discomfort.

Troll I didn't pivot from anything.
I addressed your obsession with all things Boston, in this instance, you created a false narrative to mock them. I pointed out they were one of what turned out to be less than half of MLB teams to boycott today's game. I dealt with facts you dealt in innuendo which was easily disarmed.
I thought the Mets Manfred PR stunt story was far more interesting than your troll of the day which as usual was stupid and off-mark.
and Betts is currently 0-for-2 in the 2nd game of today's LAD-Giants twin-bill, afer going 1-for 3 in the opener.

Still obssessed with Boston and still trolling.
I read last year that African-Americans account for about 8% of MLB players down from around 19% in 1975.
Last year and for several years before that (off the top of my head) the sox employed at least 3 A-A ballplayers, JBJ, Betts and Price (12% of the 25 man roster) or about 50% higher than the MLB average. If I took a look at their 40 man roster I would not be surprsied if I discovered more A-A players.
And as we know the Sox tried for the past two years to sign Betts, first a 8-200 million deal after 2018, and then 10-300 million last year. But it was not to be and they packaged Price (under a long-term contract) and Betts who it appeared would be lost to FA, and traded them to the LADs to max-out their return, and get under the salary cap. Nobody liked the trade.
except of course mindless trolls, who foolishly look at the trade and assign darker motivations to it.
I'd ask you to do better, but we both know you can't.
SSDD
Still labeling legitimate posts, rooted in published accounts, as "trolling" because you can't handle the truth which they contain.
Sad little man.

Lotta words, and very little substance, as usual.
Bottom line. Lousy team and lousy teammates in Yawkeytown. Only stepped up after they were called out in the press.

Banks.
A meatless burger.
Made from Boston beans. Full of gas, and nothing more.

Troll Am I supposed to be insulted by that childish drivel?
You and your insipid narrative were shown to be false and wholly without merit and you call me meatless burger!!!
LMFAO
oh my goodness you certainly showed me.
Now its my turn, you're a lieing sack of shit who depends on lies because you're too fuciking stupid to debate with real facts.
And thats on your best days and as we all know you have very few of those
On your worst you're an amoral stalker incapable of acting within accepted societal rules.
And when you get exposed and get embarrassed you morph into your next iteration of perverse useless poster as you are too ashamed to resume life in your old putrid rotted skin.

Josh-its a pretty fair description-Utley was lacing his sneakers when the hammer came down on him.
Utley, as you may recall, went on several forums (AL, NFL, and Trump and maybe another) and in a way over the top diva performance cursed me out, made his usual libelous charges, all because I made him look dumber than usual in some argument, and he wet his pants. So he set the stage for his dramatic exit. He's done it 3 or 4 times in the past and he always comes crawling back 2-3 months later. Except this time he got "banned" and re-registered under his next new handle, Uno.
I see no reason why Utley would act any different this time around, do you?

Get him help, Josh.
I post, he goes insane.
It's truly sad that after all this time he can't handle what others write about his team.
That's something that doesn't bother most normal individuals.
Seriously, if he is your friend, get him help.
-
Uno and Banks, this shit is so old it is turning to dust.
Banks, you know Uno is seldom going to admit that he bashes Boston just to get a rise out of you.
Uno, you know Banks is not going to drop it until you do.
Neither of you gets "butt hurt" by the other, even though you wish they were.
Neither of you can admit that you cannot "defeat" the other in a way that the other acknowledges.
And your faux superiority is more faux than superior.
Of course, when I explain that I am going to start deleting this faux-discussion, Utley will pretend that I am protecting you. All I am doing is cleaning up the shit.
I am going to start deleting this faux-discussion.

Josh
its often been said "don't feed the troll"
and those words are worth considering as Elba has become infested with trolls.
and we know our resident Philly troll needs and feeds off of the attention and drama he tries to create with his obsesions and trolling.
and as "old as dust" as these might be, the last dust-up was about a year ago when Utley couldn't deal decently in a discussion, and went on a hateful rant and was rightfully and finally banned.
I've mostly ignored his bullshit since he crawled back here wearing a new mask, (but his fingerprints were clear) except when I told him to knock off his racist baiting of Knicks in the Trump forum a couple of weeks ago.
But Utley clearly wanted to fight here-so for old time sakes and I was bored, i smacked him in the mouth with facts that exposed his narrative as false. And he had no rebuttal. He never does.
My direct response to Utley, the first in a year, is akin to your responses most every day with Red in the Trump forum.
why do you feed the troll Josh?
-
ZZZZZZZZZ.
When you can't refute the truth, label the other guy a "troll". If you just employed that strategy with me, so be it.
But you do the same with others.
And stop dragging Josh into it. Try to stand on your own two feet. Man up, and grow up, weenie.
-
heh
the Globe article with the facts and timeline nutted your false narrative of JBJ
Utley you're just a nutless troll
and Josh interjected himself into this on his own accord and had no issue with anything i posted.
he just saw it as pointless, which it is.
Your point is your sick obsession, and nothing I post will change that.
And as we both know everything I posted was true.
and so does everyone in Elba
including hammy, utley, piggy and Uno
heh
Deuce fits you, you should try it you fucking turd.

Still going for the last word on an argument you've already lost?

MLB's trade deadline is Monday at 4 p.m. and Bradley has felt like a candidate to be moved since opening night in July. He's a free agent this fall, he's almost certainly no longer a part of the team's future, and he's probably ready for a change of scenery anyway after eight seasons in Boston.
Objectively, it makes sense to deal him now for something of value before he leaves for nothing this winter, since the Red Sox probably won't make a qualifying offer in these uncertain economic times.
But the last two days have made Bradley the most important member of the Red Sox, and one of the most significant athletes in Boston. As the team's only Black player, he was regrettably left to speak for the entire organization on Wednesday following the decision to play rather than stand in solidarity with NBA players, who had wiped out a night of playoff games with a wildcat strike after yet another incident of police brutality, this time in Wisconsin....The Red Sox, meanwhile, must continue to reckon with their own dismal history, and not just because they were the last team to integrate. Since 2017 alone, they have found themselves at the center of controversies like Orioles outfielder Adam Jones hearing racist slurs in Fenway Park, a fan earning a lifetime ban for life for saying something similar during the national anthem the very next night, a divisive visit to the White House in 2019, and most players declining to kneel during a moment of unity on opening night in the wake of George Floyd's murder at the hands of a Minnesota police officer.
These things have a way of catching up to an organization.

Phillies: Employment guaranteed with no furloughs through October.
Phillies management was unaware there were any revenue-expense issues that might need to be addressed.
there's a reason why they have been the worst team in MLB for 137 years.
and have spawned generations of ignorant, angry and jealous orcs as fans.
heh
The protestations continue, but the original sin remains. Team management has given up on the franchise.

Bottom line, the Boston fans have walked away from the team. Covid or no Covid, the product on the field would still yield an empty Fenway.

Consistently.
The topic in this forum (check the forum title) is your trolling and endless obsession with all things Boston.
Are you also too blind, too delusional or just too ignorant to comprehend what appears obvious to everyone in our isle of tranquility?
and thats a rhetorical question (look it up)-I'd go with ignorant and delusional.
i've made you look foolish for years and you've ranted and run away 4 or 5 times, and then morphed into your next iteration of obssessed indecent troll.

*Actually its not that funny
the sad pathetic stalking troll is suffering from dementia and is unable to remember with any clarity what he said or posted just a few months ago ago.
and it explains so much of his deteriorating behavior and his inability to remember simple things like his name.
I guess that's why he has so many.
Here in mid-June before the 2020 season* started I opined on the nature of the 2020 60 game season *
Ford Frick put an asterisk on 61
Baseball fans will put one on 60*
and just a few posts later he agrees that yes 2020* deserves an asterisk.
16 team playoffs
DH in both leagues
Seems players will now push for similar agreement but with more games.
AD SPACE to be sold on MLB uniforms as part of agreement (I'd think somewhat similar to NBA, not NASCAR)
So, if the 60 games brought you 16 teams in the play-offs last season, the Nats don't even make the play-offs, and certainly don't become World Champions.
Yes, it will be the 2020* season.
Yet today in his anger and sense of deep disorientation in a world that scares and confuses him, he can not recall what he said months or weeks or days or eventually minutes ago.
Its truly sad, except for he's a despicable asshole.
I feel sorry for his poor family as the ravages of time and dementia steal what little dignity the troll ever possesed.
On the positive side, the loss wasn't that great.

Matt Klentak has stepped down as general manager of the Phillies, the club announced earlier Saturday.
Klentak, a native of Medfield, Mass., had been on the job in Philadelphia since October 2015.
In his tenure as the youngest general manager in franchise history, Klentak saw the Phillies post a .460 winning percentage (326-382) while failing to reach the postseason in any of his five seasons at the helm in spite of facing increasingly lofty expectations.
A graduate of Xaverian Brothers High School in Braintree, Klentak attended and played baseball at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire before earning a bachelor’s degree in economics.
I knew there was something wrong with this guy. I just couldn't put my finger on where that arrogance came that was attached to so many of his wrong-headed moves.
Now we know.

I can read just fine.
The article you posted, starts:
SAN DIEGO — The Red Sox made a smart trade when they sent Manuel Margot and three other prospects to the Padres before the 2016 season for All-Star closer Craig Kimbrel.
So if as the article states, Sox made a smart trade, who in your opinion made the horrible trade?

Banks has trouble with truth.
Truth?
The truth is you never heard of Manuel Margot until you read the Globe artice.
The truth is you labeled the trade, which was referenced in the opening sentence of the article as a smart trade, as a "horrible trade".
The truth was I asked you to
"perhaps you should explain who made the horrible trade, and why it was horrible, as the article doesn't say that."
So if as the article states, Sox made a smart trade, who in your opinion made the horrible trade?
Because the truth is you were just trolling and didn't know what you were talking about.
The truth is you're an obsessed troll.
The truth is I'm laughing my ass off at the insane amount of time you spend proving what a dumb fuck obssessed troll you are.
and thats the truth that makes you fucking nuts
LMAO.

Truth hurts, I see. Sad you keep getting your ass kicked.
But. It is who you are.
Loser.

Troll- I already explained the truth to you.
And its all there in the posts.
But feel free to lie and dig yourself in deeper.
SSDD
I asked you to expound and expand upon your ignorant 2-word misleading and misrepresentation post about an article you had posted.
I even gave you the hint there were more than one side of the trade to be considered involving the player in question.
One side had already been called a smart trade in the article. So there was at least another side to the trade. And then there was the irrelevant trade from the Pads to Rays which was about 5-off from the point of the article.
But as you likely did not read the article, before you linked to it, and as you are a moron, you just jumped to an illogical conclusion to troll and feed your Boston-bashing obssession.
SSDD
I asked you to explain your thought, no more no less, and you struggled with that.
Because you're not very bright.
You're a troll and you were asked to explain your idiotic troll post.
And once again you were shown to be foolish.
And once more you failed.
LMAO

And..you're still a dick.
And...you've yet to learn...and...still, you remain a loser.
Run along now, and pay your alimony on time.

What a damn shame. I'm not a boxing expert, but his battle with Hearns was as jaw dropping and jaw breaking a war as there ever was in a ring.
An astounding 8-minute fight.
I watched it again last night-the 1st round was awesome
I'm still pissed Sugar Ray ran away from him to "win" a title.
RIP Marvelous Marvin

He was the champion. Prior to that fight, you really had to beat the champ. Sugar Ray didn't. He was just the preferred by the media candidate in the fight.
I pretty much quit watching any and all boxing after that "decision".

In the annals of boxing, THAT FIGHT DECISION is not one I'd choose to be miffed about.

Hagler-Leonard was ranked most controversial.
this was the second article

Hagler-Leonard #1
lotta folks think that decision was controversial
-
I saw that fight at a bar in Cleveland, one where the people there had no particular affinity for Hagler or Leonard, and I thought there was going to be a riot after the decision was announced.

In his words:
Schilling said he’s leaving the Boston area, where his anti-transgender comments and other controversial remarks have cost him fans even though he helped the Red Sox win World Series titles in 2004 and 2007.
“Outside of our circle of friends, it hasn’t been a real pleasant experience in Boston,’’ Schilling told USA TODAY Sports. “So we’re just trying to find a place to live out our lives with happiness with people that are nice, and Tennessee is it
That should be, "people who are nice", Herr Schilling.

Schill's right - the entire east coast blows
-
Schill's FAR right - the entire Northeast is too sophisticated for the small-minded.
FIFY.
