    If you were a SABR member and subscribed to the e-mail list-serv that I'm a part of, you'd know that we have discussions like that every day. ;D

    Recently, for instance, there have been threads on:
    - A 35-inning game between two Japanese junior high schools in 1935
    - The origins of the term "spitball"
    - Whether Jack Onslow or Ivan Kuester finished the season as manager of the Chattanooga Lookouts in 1951
    - The longest-ever rain delay in the American League (7:23 at Comiskey Park 8/12/90)
    - "Dick Higham's batting line for 1878" (I shit you not)

    I wonder if uber-specialized sites like that have a troll problem? Something like ...

    Hail To (insert Redskin here) He's A Horse's A$$!: Who was the better Redskins TE? Don Warren or Clint Didier?
    TE Troll: Apparently someone has forgotten about Rick Walker, you guys are fucking dumb asses. And your ignorant arse forgot all about Jerry Smith and Jean Fugett. You fucking suck, HT(iRh)HAHA$$.
    Hail To (insert Redskin here) He's A Horse's A$$!:  Hey asswipe. Fuggett played as much for Dallas as he did Washington. So you better run a check on your mid 70s obscure tight end fanboy bullshit ASAP.
    TE Troll: Coming from the man who can't spell Fuggett. Next thing you're going to tell me is that Rick McGeorge was a better tight end than Paul Coffman. Eat Jerome Barkum's dick.
    Webby/Moddy/Idaho/GutterFootballNerdVersion 1.0: You guys are giving me some serious red ass. Don't feed the trolls. And TE Troll, I'll take you out like J.V. Cain if you keep this up.
