Fine performance by Charlie Manuel's hand-picked "All Star" Phillies squad

[cboy4]

UTLEY.........0-2
HOWARD........0-1
IBANEZ........0-2
VICTORINO.....1-2
WERTH.........0-1

:puke:

.125

So now, the Giants are going to have to start on the road.

I bet you anything this all would have turned out better if:

[hughee99]

1. Those NL West pitchers didn't fare so well either...

Lincecum 2IP 2 Hits, 1ER
Billingsley 1IP, 2 Hits, 1ER
Bell 1IP, 2 Hits, 1ER

Still, Sandoval deserved to be there more than Werth.

[cboy4]

2. I'm certainly not going to defend Billingsley and Bell, since I don't like them.

The bottom line in Lincecum made his way one time through a powerhouse line-up he's not used to facing, by allowing only one earned run.

Wright and Pujols are responsible for the second run.

So Tim kept the NL in the game.

It was the lame-ass weak-performing offense that choked in a hitter's part.

And since the offense was dominated by Phillies ...

In a diabolical way, it brings me joy to know Manuel fucked up the team and took the loss.

[hughee99]

3. If you want to argue that the NL west is the best division in the NL,

as much as you don't like them, don't you have to defend them a little? If the best players on your opponents teams aren't that good, how can the division be that good?

[cboy4]

7. What? Why would I defend those horrible pitching performances?

No .. if I want to argue that the NL West is the best division in the NL, then I defend Giants, Dodgers, and Rockies' records .. not individual performances in an All Star game.

Where did I write that Billingsley and Bell aren't "that good"?

They stunk in St. Louis, but that certainly doesn't take away from their teams' accomplishments in the NL West.

[hughee99]

9. My apologies, you didn't say that they weren't that good.

They did stink in STL, though, and Lincecum needs to remember to cover first. He's not completely blameless in all of this.

One more thing, Manuel "hand picked" Howard (deserving) and Werth (less deserving than Sandoval). The other three were there on fan votes (Utley, Ibanez, and Victorino) and were not actually his call. So is hand picked crew actually hit .000 0-2 with 2 K's.

[cboy4]

10. I know, but I'm exaggerating Manuel's involvement because I'm mad at

him for not replacing Matt Cain with a Giant .. which would have only been fair.

And I'm not saying Lincecum is completely blameless. Geeez hughee .. so many words in my mouth.

But the NL was not losing when he was out of the game.

It would be nice if the NL hitters could shock the world and produce for once. I've never seen a more embarrassing team of athletes than these NL "stars" over the past 1.5 decades.

[Upton]

5. Yep..Pablo might have made the difference in the game

one swing from the Panda, or a decent throw had he been at third base instead of Wright, could have given the NL home field advantage for the WS...

[Forkboy]

6. The Giants won't have to worry about it.

[cboy4]

8. Thanks for reassuring me they're good enough to win on the road.

:hug:

[Forkboy]

13. 6 games under on the road won't get it done.

[cboy4]

16. The Giants are 6 games under 500 on the road in the playoffs?

:wow:

Who knew you could predict how they'll do on the road in the playoffs this year!


BTW, in 2002 when they beat St. Louis for the pennant ... they won the first two games at Busch Memorial Stadium.

In fact, to be more specific, they won the only two games in St. Louis, as they didn't have to go back.

[Forkboy]

35. The point, besides the one on your head....

..is that 6 games under .500 won't even GET them to the playoffs. Try to keep up, son.

[MrSlayer]

11. Whatever dude, we're the defending champs.

And if we get Halladay we're repeating. The all-star game means nothing.

[inthebrain]

12. I think TO wants pitching for pitching

Not sure what it is they expect but I don't think Philly has arms to spare or anything that gonna pry him from Toronto.

I think St Louis migh be in the best position to land this guy. maybe Atlanta if they include Lowe or Cincy with Arroyo.

Have a feeling he goes to the NL Central.

[MrSlayer]

34. Sure they do.

J. Happ is one guy they'd want and minor league phenom, RHP Kyle Drabek is another. Throw in five-tool prospect Michael Taylor or top catching prospect Travis D’Arnaud and you have the makings of a good deal for the Jays to get much better in the future. Hell, I'd give them all up to win now.

[trumad]

14. defending champs

Something the douche has never said for his beloved Giants.

[cboy4]

18. I've said it three more times than Marlins fans!

Yes INDEED

[trumad]

20. Oh---so you were around when the Giants won a series in Frisco?

[cboy4]

23. I wasn't around for America's birthday in 1776, but that doesn't stop

me from talking about and being proud of it .. now does it?

[trumad]

24. Dumb Douche...

When you say your team is the defending MLB champs---it means they're the last to win the MLB Championship.

Can you say that about your Giants?

Nope... Because it never happened in your lifetime and never in your beloved City of Frisco.

[cboy4]

27. You can't even remember your propaganda.

You said defending champs is something I've never said about this Giants.

You didn't say anything about how the Giants are the defending champs.

The Marlins are no more defending champions than the Giants are.

But that wasn't the way you phrased you dumb-ass post.

Ha trumad

[trumad]

31. Post 18 ---dumb douche...

Quote----"I've said it more than Marlin fans"...

What---that your baseball team is the "Defending Champs?

What year did you say that?

I said it in 97 and 2003.

What year did you make that comment?

[cboy4]

33. I said it in 1954. Admittedly, it's been awhile. But I've said it .. as well as the

four previous times dating back to 1903. :eyes:

[trumad]

38. Oh---so you were alive and a New York Giant fan back in 54?

[cboy4]

40. I was alive in spirit

[trumad]

41. So basically youv'e never been able to say that your Giants were defending Champs---

while you we're alive.

[cboy4]

42. How does that nullify the five Giants World Championships, compared to only

two for Miami?

I wasn't alive when the Bill of Rights were implemented.

I guess I don't get to mention them either, right?

[Forkboy]

46. It doesn't nullify the Championships, just Frisco's claim to them.

And you forgot to work in a MLK quote. The Bill of Rights is decent, but you need more flamboyance in your martyrdom. No one will take you seriously either way, but at least then you'll be entertaining in a Carrot Top kind of way.

[cboy4]

48. Listen to forkboy admit that I won that argument with trumad.

It looks like I'm going to have to keep my acceptance speech with me at all times.

[Forkboy]

50. Last time you claimed you won I spanked your ass so hard you ran away, chickenshit.

You couldn't win first place in a one man competition.

[cboy4]

55. Last time I beat you (it's hard to keep track), you bitterly said something

about how once a year isn't bad.

So no, you didn't spank my ass.

[Forkboy]

61. Yes, I did, and you still haven't responded, chickenshit.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=215&topic_id=103817&mesg_id=103857

You were all over that thread after I wrote that but you avoided it like the plague. You're a coward through and through. Just a trumped up little squirt who is a legend in his own mind. You'll be a Log Cabin Repub by the time you're 30. You have the rest of their act down pat.

[cboy4]

63. I'll be a Log Cabin Republican by the time I'm 30 because

I beat you in an argument, but don't respond to your unrelated post?! :rofl:

Boy are you desperate to prove me wrong about something.

[Forkboy]

64. More repub traits. Divert, distract, focus on the throw away lines instead of the issue.

It if walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's cboy acting like a Repub.

I'll type this so slow that even a dumb fuck like you can follow along at home. We're talking in THIS thread about you beating me in an argument.

Yes or no?

The last time you claimed you beat in an argument was the thread I linked to.

Yes or no?

Two threads, two times you're claiming you won an argument.

Yes or no?

My response, linked in my previous post, was a response to whether you won that argument.

Yes or no?

In that response, I provided numerous examples of you being a hypocrite about what you claimed my problem was, gloating.

Yes or no?

You replied to others in that thread many times after I had demolished your argument.

Yes or no?

A post in direct response to your claim of winning arguments would be considered by anyone with a brain to be related to the same topic.

Yes or no?

I'm only proving what you're desperate to illustrate. That you're a narcissistic, hypocritical, hero-worshiping douchebag who couldn't out debate Ann Coulter on an ether binge.

Better add more smilies. Maybe someone will actually be as dumb as you hope they are and think that's a sign of winning.

[cboy4]

65. Nice! I can tell I've defeated you because I'm causing you to lash

out in anger.

You're beside yourself with frustration and fury.

Just remember. while answering essay questions .. long, ramblings in a Bluebook do not mean you're correct. Short answers with the correct information means you're right.

You get an F for failing to show how you beat me.

[Forkboy]

66. Another Republican trait, projection.

We all note there's no real reply in any of your posts, just boasts of a victory that hasn't happened. Anger? I'm fucking loving doing this to you. You play it so straight one can only assume you really ARE as fucking dumb as you seem. You're like a one-legged frog trying to escape a sinking lily pad, and almost as smart.

I tried short, correct answers, but you're too fucking dense to get those either. You get an F for reading comprehension, but an A for phony stupidity to avoid having to admit you have nothing. Like I said, Freud's wet dream.

I got all night here, chickenshit.

And you forgot your smilies. Can't you get anything right?

[cboy4]

67. Aren't you going to ask me what a bluebook is?

:shrug:

[Forkboy]

68. I just assumed it was about your nuts after a week of not jerking off to Barry.

[cboy4]

69. Bluebook?

I think you're off my a few letters.

[Forkboy]

70. Nah, a mixture of blueballs and your Bonds scrapbook.

I got it right.

[cboy4]

71. You're to much

My only interest in Bonds is all he did for my 5-time World Series Champion Giants.

[Forkboy]

72. Sure, homer, sure.

And I only like Jennifer Connelly for her acting. :rofl:

[trumad]

73. Dumb ass---I can say in my lifetime that the Marlins were defending champs...

and be truthful.... You can't.

Again I ask---in your lifetime----can you say that the Giants were defending champs?

[cboy4]

17. Hopefully Philadelphia doesn't get him .. I can't stomach much more

gloating from Philly fans.

[MrSlayer]

26. We so rarely get to gloat about anything.

We went 100 sports seasons without a title. Suck it up for a year.

[cboy4]

28. You guys gloat even when you lose.

LOL!!!

Hey, I'm already on record as saying if I weren't a Giants fan, I believe my personality would be best suited for Philadelphia -- home of the National League All-Star Team losing manager Charlie Manuel.

We'd have the "W" had Manuel picked Brian Wilson to come in and lock down the save!

[marmar]

15. Wouldn't have mattered.....the American League is just better.

n/t

[cboy4]

19. I agree that they're better. What a humiliating pill for Philly fans to

swallow.

[trumad]

21. You're sush a stupid douche to say that to the defending champs.

[cboy4]

22. Hey, that supposedly great offense failed to help all of us National League

fans.

[trumad]

25. Yeah---like your supposed great pitcher.

[cboy4]

29. Lincecum pitched only one inning and gave up only one run.

That should have been, by far, a small enough AL lead for the NL "slugging Phillies" to propel our team to a decisive come from behind win.

[trumad]

30. Bwhhaaaaaaaa.....

Whine---- cry----- pitch a fit... 1 run made a difference...

[cboy4]

32. I know, thanks to these guys who blew it.

AND HOW ABOUT YOUR LOSER GOING 0-for-3? :wtf:

[Onceuponalife]

39. He gave up 2 runs, genius

Were you hiding your eyes in horror when he started giving up line drives all over the place and missed the second run he allowed because he fogrot he was supposed to cover first?

[cboy4]

43. No, he only gave up one run. Check the boxscore.

Not his fault Wright and Pujols sabotaged his inning.

[inthebrain]

54. Tin foil hat time

No really, Lincecom was the best player on the field.

Honsetly!!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

[cboy4]

57. Notice how (once again) you once change the subject any time I so much as

mention a NY Met, aka Choker.

And who said Lincecum was the best player on the field.

He was definitely the best pitcher.

He just might have been the best player, but I never said that definitively.

Space for inthebrain to provide link where I said Lincecum was the best player definitively------------>____________________________________ ***crickets***

[inthebrain]

58. You conspiracy nutter

pure tin foil.

Lincecom was one of the worst players and pitchers on the feild. Hands down.

[cboy4]

60. David Wright and Albert Pujols fucked him. Hopefully Tim took the

morning after pill.

[Onceuponalife]

75. Nope. He gave up 2

He DID pitch the whole inning, right? I checked the box score and it says the AL scored 2 runs that inning.

[rep the dems]

37. And we Phillies fans know first hand how important home field advantage is.

Oh wait...

<>

[cboy4]

44. Fine, if the Giants win the World Series on the road this year, all will be

forgotten.

[rep the dems]

36. All he did was the same thing that every NL Manager since 1996 has done.

Failed to manage an All Star Game winning team. There is plenty of blame to spread around if you really want to (and you obviously do) but in the end, it will only matter to two teams.

[cboy4]

45. I know. That's why I'm making a big deal about it ... the Giants have been

playing very well at home this season.

[inthebrain]

47. Even dumber for Manuel to have Lincecom start this game

Yeah, he really did make a dumb decision there.

[cboy4]

49. Excellent throw David! Please go back on the juice. You're a mess.

[inthebrain]

51. Linceom was the worst player on the field through out the course of the game

for either team.

Wright made up for his throw by getting a hit and scoring a run.

Linceom blew an 0-2 lead on a batter.

Lincecom failed to cover first on a double play ball.

Lincecom killed the NL.

[cboy4]

53. You don't even know how to spell Tim's name.

Second of all, he had a no decision in the game.

The NL had it in the bag, until a player from the most overrated team in the National League came in and choked.

He must have taken notes from your horrible team..

Wiping away the tears of defeat after letting
his entire league down.

[inthebrain]

56. Lincecum choked

loser.

[cboy4]

59. You can never refute any of my points.

No wonder you never back down from ricockulous comments like the Islanders attendance isn't pitiful and that the Mets draw very well. :eyes:

[inthebrain]

52. Yeah, that gut looks like he's on the juice

never hesitate to break out the tin foil hat, nut job.

[Forkboy]

62. Nice game by Timmy.

[Onceuponalife]

74. .....

:rofl:
