Tomas is no mas?

Yes.  Screwy timing on my part.  "Hey, I'm enjoying this!" *click* "Tomas?"

The Braves developed the pitchers into hitters. Name me another team that has done that?

Some of them even managed to hit a few homers  ;D

All my weather-beater is peeling off.  Oh well.

Padres are developing Casey Kelly into a position player.

That's a good point.  It's been Very clear that Art didn't discern between the army of scumbags who showed up just to make an ugly scene downright vile, and the long-standing and more rational but nevertheless disappointed BellGabber crew.

I can't really blame him though - I don't think he has the years of active daily room participation that most people here have grown up with, and even most of the long-standing members have sounded angry if not outright accusatory (constantly reinforcing each other's idiotic "there is no stalker, Art just wanted to quit" conspiracy theory).

Even now that nearly all of the slime has slithered elsewhere, it's almost impossible to find a kind word about him here.  So I think in his mind it's all mixed up into one big bag of shit.

But the change over the last week alone is startling.  Early on I added everyone who seemed particularly stupid and vile to my ignore list, and there were only a handful of posts per page left to read, for weeks.  Now it's completely flipped around:  the only worthless dipshits still posting, who are on my list, are KoK and DB.  But even now the Art Bell thread is still pretty Chernobyl.  It's sad.  Because the people posting there are people with enough brains and wit to stay off my ignore list, but there seems to be something of a mob mentality in effect that makes the majority sound like mean-spirited conformist middle-schoolers.

I don't think they're going to get back to being the fun snarky group that brought me here until they hear some good news, and I don't see any of that happening in the near term.

BTW, this guest is incredibly awful.  He sounds like a refugee from a high school chess club.
Too Long. Didn't Read.

Yeah, the weirdness level is a little on the disappointing side, admittedly.

Has this turned into an "Occupy" crowd? 

Art's a 1%er...  Probably more of a 0.7%er. 

More I learn, the more I dislike of the man. 

Yep.

NL baseball is the only "real" baseball.  >:(

;D

I HATE it when our pitcher gets stranded out on 2nd base. He doesn't need to be out there baking in the sun does he?

I always thought the NL had better parks to play at than the AL ones.

Geez...  Guess the arm isn't going to get better, huh?

Watching that loop of Bond hit a monstrous one off of what looks like Andy Hawkins...  Wonder what would have happened to Bonds if T-Gwynn was successful in talking him into coming to San Diego.

Tom Cruise has located the guest and taken him out.

So Tom was the dude in the boxer shorts in the temple whose name must not be named?

Yes and he came sliding across the hard wood flooring wearing a smart shirt, boxers, and some cool shades.
