Cheap free agent players...

PrintIf the Giants want to be really competitive, they really need to sign these players and invite them to spring training.
Boonitez--- career .0loser hitter.
Natto --- okay, then. N/A.
MarceLL-ow --- career batboy
I hear they are really good. They play PS3 or whatever and think they are better than what the Giants have. Besides, Natto is like unemployed for the last two years or whatever. Won't hurt to try.
I live in Arizona and can't wait to see them in Scottsdale.
And, I am begging you, gaytown415, please be at spring training.

Hey Guys
Please don’t delete this. I have a feeling it’s going to be fun.
Anyway, just so people know – Natto made a simple Cain sucks joke. Fuller made an ass of himself by A) not getting the joke and B) making a weird “can you pitch better than him” argument, so now he hates Natto. He also doesn’t like marcello because he once corrected his spelling, and boonitez because…he’s a tough guy, I guess.
..so allow me to present Tim Lincecum and Matt Cain as two sweet, sweet bottles of warming hooch.
So you’re saying Fuller’s being a reasonable guy?
Aaron King is still my homeboy... iffy mechanics and all.
I’m not sure if I corrected his spelling or not. I can’t remember exactly what I did, but I’m sure I was my usual pleasant self.
Also, if anyone can figure this and this out, I would love it. I have no idea what it even means. What’s the point of the L’s?

But I believe you two were were having an argument during which he called you marcelo, and you felt it necessary to correct him.
..so allow me to present Tim Lincecum and Matt Cain as two sweet, sweet bottles of warming hooch.
Ah yes
Now I remember.
An odd thing for Jeff Fuller to hold onto.

Yeah
I was looking for that comment in your profile and found this. I’m a pretty casual football fan, so I have no opinion regarding whatever it is you were so passionately arguing about , but this is my new favorite piece of angry snark:
Again, I don’t know where you got that from. Try this in the future:
1) Read something.
2) You probably didn’t understand it so take a few minutes to think about it.
3) Write your response.
4) Wait 15 minutes to post it because what you wrote is probably unbelievably stupid and a little time will help you to realize that.
I feel like I should start reading NinersNation. Or maybe not.

Yeah, I get pissed off when people spout off cliches like they’re profound thoughts.

I really wanted to go off on a couple of people (neither of whom was marcello) in that thread, but the site decorum rules at NN stopped me.
That’s probably a good thing.

Next time you're mad, try dancing out your anger.

There is nothing more galling to angry people than the coolness of those on whom they wish to vent their spleen. If a small thing has the power to make you angry, does that not indicate something about your size?

Eh, game preference is another thing. There are some PS3 games I like but overall, I like the selection of games on the 360.
Yup. There are a few games that really make me want to have a PS3: Little Big Planet, Ratchet and Clank, and Valkyria Chronicles to name a few, but overall the 360 has pretty much everything the PS3 has and then a bunch of awesome exclusives.

The 360 is junk and the Wii is great? Thanks, but this is the line for gamers. I have never had trouble with my 360 in the 2 years I’ve had it. I say this in regards to baseball a lot, but you’re extrapolating too much from a small sample.

If I remember right, that’s what they admit to. The actual failure rate has been estimated as much higher from informal surveys. Probably because Microsoft is a software company making hardware. Even though everyone I know has had their system die at least once, I still bought one. It’s got some mighty fine games.

I do not understand the hate. Part of being a fan is arguing you ideas and observations. When someone takes it personal like this, it just gets ridiculous.
The argument of “you cant say he sucks because you suck more” is pretty ..umm… dumb for the simple reason that most of us played ball and weren’t good enough to keep advancing up the ladder. I played Juco ball and stopped b/c i saw no future for me any point beyond that and did not want to play for some hack-ass d-3 school. So i focused on school and away i went. But, as a fan I still have the right to say that “Bocock couldn’t hit a beach ball”. Hell, the tickets we pay for pay these guys salaries.
Guys like J. Fuller need to take a step back and think rationally that, Yes all of McCoven can’t hit as good as Bocock, but are fans and have the right to say he hits like shit.

L4D is a blast. Although there are only four campaigns at the moment, the experience varies wildy with each playthrough, thanks to the “AI director”. It’s best played with friends who will work together with you. I’ve lost many a match thanks to lame teammates who wander off or spend more time making references to the Friday movies.
Friday?
Why are people quoting that while playing L4D? Without knowing more about the game, I guess, “It’s your ass, Mr. Postman,” could work.
