Brand newbie

zoste · 08-23-2003, 07:52 PM

I was surfing around looking for info on the BBWAA guidelines for HOF selection and blindly stumbled upon this site. There seems to be a lot of diverse, and INTELLIGENT conversation going on here, so I decided to register.

How refreshing to see baseball fans conversing beyond the typical third grade mentality ("My team is better than yours, so you're an idiot 'cause I said so, and you'll be crying when we're in the WS") that is so common on most fan boards.

I'm looking forward to more of the same!

And worth every penny you pay for it.

My team is definitely not better than yours.

SmedIndy · 08-25-2003, 04:31 PM

If my team doesn't stop getting slappies with no offensive prowess to "shore" up their team with "proven veterans", they'll be in Pirate-land...

Happy posting! __________________ Steve, Forum Administrator POSTING TIP FOR THE DAY: When composing a post, think about what you would say if the intended recipient was an individual who was actually sitting just two feet in front of you, in person, rather than just some far away and anonymous audience who only can identify you as text on a PC screen - - and then write your post in that manner. It makes for remarkable and sincere discourse.
