    The Thome-Teixeira thing is him being a shtinker. On the other point, Long hasn't exactly been seen as a linchpin for the Yankees. He has been questioned before.

    Then I disagree with your definition of troll. I believe it is somebody whose goal is to start shit when he posts. He doesn't have to dominate threads. If he fails to take over a thread, that just means he isn't very good at it. The intent is still there.

    And to state that right now Jim Thome is better than Mark Teixeira is not just an opinion that I disagree with. It is ridiculous and even Manky knows it.

    Well, then, what to make of the egging on of people about salary caps or lack of such. If theoretically someone engaged in that.

    I mean every word I type about those things, except the ones that are clearly sarcasm. And there is actual evidence to support my point. You can't support an argument for Thome for Teixeria in 2012.

    Well, o_t clearly means the garbage he spews out. Does that make him better than Manky?

    Honestly? Yes. Posting shit you don't mean for the sole purpose of trying to start shit is worse.

    Wrong. Being frothing-at-the-mouth delirious about something ONLY YOU believe is worse. The other is harmless.

    And I'm not talking about tony.

    Intent matters, IJAG.

    But it's ok. We forgive you for frothing at the mouth about the evils of running threads.

    Then what's your intent for 90 percent of your posts? Because you make them, and then you start pissing matches. So if that's not your intent, you fail.
