The 43 guys ranked ahead of Derek Jeter by BA Topic

Here's something I'm curious about.

You're an athiest, right?    So are Muslims, Buddhists, etc, etc, idiots or is that restricted to Christians?

And, BTW, "he walked a lot" really has nothing to do with his walk rate.    Otherwise, I could say a guy who drew 5 walks in his only 20 PA "walked a lot".    I don't think that's true.   He walked 5 times in his career.

Really?

You're a moron.

"He had a high walk rate" and "he walked a lot" are the same ******* thing.

In your idiot world.  All of these guys walked a lot.   I know the walk rate for one.   Wanna guess?

I never said all of those guys walked a lot.
2/13/2014 4:39 PM
I'm saying it.   And I know the walk rate for one of them.  Care to guess which one?

So you think all of those guys walked a lot?

That's dumb. Jeter walked less than 9% of the time. About league average. Jeter did not walk a lot.
2/13/2014 4:49 PM
Same goes for Omar Vizquel and his 8.6% walk rate. He didn't walk a lot.

I see the problem now. You either don't understand English or somehow lack the ability to distinguish what "a lot" means.
2/13/2014 4:51 PM
You funny in your oh so predictable toolishness.

Someone makes a statement. 
It's not exactly what you want it to be.
You tell them what they really meant.
They so "No, what I said is what I meant."
Your response is always "Well, that's dumb."

You're amusing.

Rather be amusing than an idiot.

Bum on the street finds a thousand dollars.
He says "Damn, I've got a lot of money."
BL says "No you don't.  Warren Buffett has 50 gazillion dollars.  You have a very low amount."
Bum says "$1000 is a lot to me."
BL says "I see the problem now. You either don't understand English or somehow lack the ability to distinguish what "a lot" means."

Predictable toolishness.

BL, definer of all words, phrases and sentences.

How'd you get that job? 
2/13/2014 4:56 PM

Seriously, the funniest part is you don't realize how big of a ***** you come off as.   

How about you define what every word that quanties non-specifically means?  Here's a few;

Several
Many
A lot
Bunch

Anyone other than Mike: Jeter's walk rate was exactly league average
Mike: Jeter walked a lot

Does that make sense?

Look biz, just because you're retarded doesn't mean you get to make up definitions for words. Average =/= a lot.
