Anyone want the Yankees to lose just so Spammy will stop?

I am a little biased cause I am a red sox fan, anyone???

Comments

  • Win or lose, this guy will not stop posting.

    If the Yanks win, he will state how great of a comeback it was, yada yada yada.

    If the Yanks lose, he will state how bad they are and how lucky the other team was.

    Either way, there is no getting rid of him.

    Remember these Chuck Norris Facts

    1. When Chuck Norris does a pushup, he isn't lifting himself up, he's pushing the Earth down
    2. According to Einstein's theory of relativity, Chuck Norris can actually roundhouse kick you yesterday
    3. There are no such things as lesbians, just women who have not yet met Chuck Norris
  • What would Spammy do if the Yanks fail to make the playoffs (a distinct possibility)?

    After the GREATEST CHOKE IN BASEBALL HISTORY last year, I'm afraid he might kill himself!!

    As a Red Sox fan, after the GREATEST COMEBACK IN BASEBALL HISTORY, I'm set for at least 10 years!! image


    Frankly, I'd like to see the Indians and Red Sox make the playoffs, but could care less whether the Yanks or ChiSox fill the other slot (I'm assuming the Angels will win the West).

    Axthole, Shanty-Townie, dgbaseball, ctsoxfan, Cornhusker1 and RipublicaninMass's very red faces when the Yanks knock Curt Baby and the Red Sox outta the playoffs.

    Gotta admit ...

    I am a Phils fan, but also grew up rooting for the Red Sox second and Yankees third

    Mainly because the Yankees got rid of some people, signed Giambi and then Arod ... then Johnson (knew that was a bust) but also because of Gemmy, I would love to see the Yankees lose.

    Nigtmare for Fox's ratings as well.

  • <<but also grew up rooting for the Red Sox second and Yankees third>>

    That is really weird rooting for both the Red Sox and Yankees. Can't make up your mind? LOL

    While the Yanks SHOULD make the playoffs (and SHOULD win the division), nothing would be finer than to see that ship sink.

    Double the pleasure, double the fun image

    1) A $200M+ team misses the playoffs
    2) Knowing Spammy is at home, curled up in the fetal position, and crying himself to sleep.

    In regards to the master yankee master collection. You are the resident "expert", are you not?

  • Yes.

    Do you mean if the collection wasn't sealed? How many different type of wood boxes, i.e Mahogany? Are you asking a legitimate question or just being facetious?
  • stownstown Posts: 11,321 ✭✭✭
    100% Legit

    How many?

    Gosh, are there that many or are you looking it up?

  • There were 500 sets. 102 I can confirm having broken up by tracking them on eBay. Each set has the number engraved, i.e 250/500, on the mahogany box which is lined with velvet where the cards are housed. Each card also has the number engraved except the Mystery Card.. There were 25 World Series cards, each one representing one of the Yankees 25 World Series to date (2000 they were manufactured) and 10 Game Used Bat cards and one "Mystery" card. A true sealed set has the "Mystery" card sealed, the mahogany box is inserted in a blue pinstriped box which is shrink wrapped and then sealed in a hard white cardboard box with Upper Deck embossed sealing tape. I have often seen the sets as advertised as "Sealed" on eBay when it is still in the shrink wrapped blue box but missing the white box. I am hgihly suspicious of these since therev are shrink wrap machines. Also it is very easy to reseal the Mystery card which comes in a blue pinstriped cardboard sleeve.

    The difference between you and I spammy, besides my having common courtesy for those who read these boards (which you never will), is I never proclaimed myself to be an elite computer programmer, I never bragged about how much money I make, I never said I was excellent at 'righting' code.

    And the resident plagiarist because he didn't write this:

  • It wasn't the spelling that tipped you off was it?

  • I most certainly did write it. Anyone familiar with my expertise on the set would know.
  • AxtellAxtell Posts: 10,037 ✭✭


    << <i>I most certainly did write it. Anyone familiar with my expertise on the set would know. >>



    Not your 'expertise' whatever that is, but the fact that the write up was spelled correctly, with proper grammar, 2 things you seem unable to do.
  • stownstown Posts: 11,321 ✭✭✭


    << <i>I most certainly did write it. Anyone familiar with my expertise on the set would know. >>



    And everyone that reads your daily Yankees spam knows this is not your writing style:

  • Here is an archived post from way back in 2001. There are many more of my posts there but I am not going to spend energy looking them up for you. Unfortunately at the time of these archived posts there was a system error on the CU Message Boards so many messages are repeated numerous times in the thread below. Anyone who knows me form the Sports Cards and Memorabilia board knows it IS my style. Bye Bye.

    Typical Spammy thread. You do most of the posting and not many responses. Again, the long winded ones do not fit your posting style.

    I see you wrote at least one post:



    << <i>Hi Guys,

    How do you like my new New York Yankee Icon? Somebody uploaded it as a new choice >>

    << <i>OK, Shanty-Townie, whatever you say. >>



    Great reasoning, Spammy! You are so right! How did I not think of it that way??!

    Still waiting for you to elaborate on the clever name you gave me.

    Special Edition DVD coming out soon! And thinkgeek.com has that red swingline stapler for sale.

    Great, great movie....my favorite scene is either Michael rapping to the Geto Boys in his car, and turning it down and locking the doors when that guy walks by, or when all 3 of them are beating up the 'pc load letter' printer in the field.

    GREAT movie.

    "what the f*** does PC load letter mean?"

    As far as your second statement, one can only hope and pray the yankees lose so spammy will retreat to his basement and suck on his thumb for the next 6 months.
