4 stats make a pitcher...

But it helps if you don't watch other players/teams every day. I can easily picture some d-bag non-Tigers fan saying "49 for 49 with a 2.24 ERA, what an amazing closer".
What do I care what other players/teams are doing? I don't need to provide a scouting report or write an article for the USA Today.

Then don't worry about it.

Some of us like to know what's going on elsewhere in the league.

Exactly, nobody is trying to force the advanced stats down anyone's throat, if you don't like them, ignore them.

But don't try to argue against their value, or you'll just end up looking stupid.

No idea why you feel the need to respond to my posts. I was cordial with my posts on this thread. Just stating that my preference is to form my opinion on players by watching the games. I really don't need a condescending @#$% coming at me every day on this forum.

With all due respect.....go #$%^ yourself

I am going to say this again, please leave profane personal attacks towards the players coaches or team,..... NOT at any posters.
Please....
 
I was responding to and quoting Grandy's post, not yours, get over yourself.
 
Personal attacks like Go F yourself is going to get a ban soon. Its been going on too much of late.

It seems to only be a problem when it's directed at some of the "good ol' boys" though. That, I don't get.
 
This Detroit Sports Forum has alot of leeway, compared to where most all of us came from at espn. Even at an early arrival from espn to Monsters board, a few of the long time posters at espn that joined, soon decided to go elsewhere due to the profanity directed at the players, team at an early time at his board.

These kinds of profanity laced attacks at players etc. are not allowed any where in the Tigers blogosphere, check them out, and try to swear at players or the team at; motown, blessyouboys, tigstown, etc. it's not happening..

But I have felt all along it is ok at players and the team mainly because all here are passionate about our Tigers. It goes on other forums 'here' as well, but the Tigers board is my main concern.
Also, we are here regularly/daily....so angry profanity posts at other posters, well it just builds a simmering animosity, that comes out to easily.

I have a years long history with many of you here, and because of that, I don't want to hand out any infraction. I would rather give the poster(s) a chance to think about it, and then another chance. But there are Limits after all, for the good of the entire board.
Hopefully there is going to be an understanding of all this.....
 
So you didn't just piggy back off his comment to me? Come on now.

In no more than keeping with the topic in this thread.

I was pointing out what he said, it was in response to you, but my overall point was to everyone in the thread.

And seriously, you of all people accusing me of jumping all over your posts.....go back and look at the last weeks Tigers threads, you were trolling me pretty hard, I actually had you on ignore for a game or two.

Now if you wanna continue, let's get back on topic.

Just put me back on ignore then. You really don't respect anything I say anyways. Seems win/win to me.

I've haven't had a single issue with any other poster on this forum. You've had numerous confrontations with posters.

There are ways to disagree without being a douche about it.

I respect what you do here and what you did on the ESPN board. You dedicate a lot of time and energy every day to bring info to the Tiger fans here and it's greatly appreciated.

However, when I make a post I really don't need some condescending poster attacking my views. I've never had a run in with any other poster here. Always the same guy. The same guy who daily flames other newer posters for stating their thoughts that he might not agree with.

I show respect when respect is shown to me. Same as I'll show a lack of respect when that's what is given me.

Sorry KC, don't mean to add on to what you already do.

Then walk away. Don't respond or go to a new thread. And I'm not sure what you means by good ole boys? As its been pointed out, there is much leeway here, more than you'd get just about anywhere else.

We've all sports fanatics and sometimes opinions get heated. Just try and not let it go to the next level.

Any my post wasn't just directed at you, it was meant to curtail all the f you and suck on this directed at the people who make this site possible, the poster.
