I'm not interested in an event conversion. He's a Hall of Famer. His career merits it.

If you don't want to participate in the discussion, then don't insert yourself into it.

Dumbass.

I was just participating to remind you that you're stupid.

Im stupid too but im halfway smart in a few things like baseball so ill add my 2 cents.Theres a lot to be said how much a great base stealer like Raines affects a pitcher-rattles him-drives him crazy.A lot of people are not Raines fans.Im not trying to convert them.But u have to consider the other side that great basestealers give you

A steal is not worth a home run, but could easily be as valuable. And I am not a rah rah Raines guy.

This is actually backwards, but I guess in this discussion it's not particularly important... In proper English, value is intrinsic, worth is extrinsic. A home run is always more valuable than a steal, but a steal could be worth as much if it leads to the run that wins the game.

you are a douchebag, backwards or forwards...and we've disagreed on your opinion of 'value' before and always will

"How much is a home run worth?" Answer: 1 run
"How much value does a home run have?" Answer: What do you mean by that?

Home runs = rally killers

Home runs = rally killers

Guys who get on base = base cloggers

That's fine, the average American is terrible at English.

And yes, I kinda am a douchebag/jackass/what have you. Feel free to call me on it whenever seems appropriate.

kinda???

And I'm supposed to read a 37 line opinion from a douchebag/jackass/what have you? That doesn't seem right.

That's douchebag-ese for "all day, every day".

Oh no, dahsdouche implied that I'm an average American without a grasp of the language.
How will I ever find self worth again?


Passive subtlety and balls like raisins. Good life you have.

I'm sure you have no problem with self worth. People interested in actually learning or improving have always been in the minority.

So now you're teaching?

Are you sure you're not overvaluing your opinion just a bit?

Man, that was a good three days. Oh well.

Maybe you can report me for a 3rd time and make it longer.
