What exactly does that mean?

I think that most of us would believe it to mean: just because someone has the time to post a couple thousand times, doesn't make their input useful or literate.

I offered a definitive answer to a baseball question. There was no tangent, DG just repeated what we had already discussed.

This is almost as irritating as copying an entire post and pasting it into your response. We know what was said. If you are responding to a sentence or two, go ahead and copy/paste it. But we don't need ten people copying the original post. But, I guess I shouldn't have an opinion because I don't have your history on this site.
I commented on several points that I did not think had been adequately covered by previous posters. The point that names define the order, not numbers was well covered.

1) I am not checking numbers at pregame, and have no way to do so. I am counting players and making sure there are no names duplicated. If two player's numbers are transposed I have no way of knowing.

2) I expect this to come up before the 7th inning.

3) A pinch hitter is not BOO. This may have been covered previously, I don't recall.

4) You need to address BOO before the defense leaves the field.

And leave me out of this cat fight...
