Hey Garth, this is just PG. McGriff runs R most of the time ;-)

BTW, do you think WCB would go nuts if we told him my baseball involvement?

No.

If you were anyone important, I would have heard of you by now. Remember, I travel ALL OVER THE COUNTRY for baseball. I've never heard anyone say, "Hey, I get to work with Ives next week."

On the other hand, you have no idea who I am or what my involvement is at any level. In chess, they call that "Check mate".

On the Internet, we call that "trolling."

We've never heard of WindBag, either. As far as we know, you're a total fake. It's highly unlikely that someone who had achieved everything you say would act like you. Anybody can come here and pretend to be anything they want. For all we know, you're a T-ball umpire.

Morganna, the kissing broad, travels ALL OVER THE COUNTRY for baseball. So do sportscasters and groupies. You act more like a groupie than an umpire.

By the way, in chess it's called cheating when you hide your pieces, not "checkmate". You don't know the rules to chess anymore than you do for baseball.

You just couldn't help yourself, could you?

Until you can successfully establish my identity, you are p*ssing in the wind. Your accomplishments on the field pale in comparison to mine. They always have and always will.

As for your weak chess/hidden identity analogy, you should really educate yourself a little more. Chess masters rove online and play any comer. It's pretty easy to "hide your identity" behind a psedonym and engage in the match. You should really try it sometime. From your mastery of this Board, I can't imagine our match would last very long. Again, you would be left sobbing and wondering..."What happened? I thought I was good."

I used to work with guys like you - people who thought they deserved the big games and were better than the guys that actually paid their dues and got there on their skill. My back started to hurt from carrying them all of the time. I'm afraid that don't grasp that, yet.

This lame B.S. is getting old. "Blah,blah,blah,you've
never done what I SAY I've done.You're just jealous. Take
my word for it, I'm important."
These are the things I continue to hear in your posts.
Why don't we all be happy in whatever level baseball we
call, and not worry about what level someone else works,
and not constantly talk about how nobody knows you and
how wonderfully important you are?


P.S.

This post is not aimed at any one person in particular,
but if it resembles you........

Away for the weekend.

I didn't say I was important. I just asked if we should let you know what my involvement in baseball is. Of course you could find out if you did just a smidgen of research.

[WindyCityBlue]

Why would I do that?


My life is not that empty. I do not need to know anything more about you. You've already told us all I need to know.

WindyCityBlue,
No winner?
That would be called a "Stale mate", methinks.

Yes, presume you know instead of knowing. That's a really good approach to life.

C'mon Rut, admit the truth for once. You're ecstatic that WindBag has replaced you as the number one punching bag in internet officiating. It's not stale to you at all. You're lovin it.

Bob,

I am not you. I do not put much credibility in what someone says on the internet. So if you guys do not like the words that Windy might say, that is your problem. I have had my battles with the man and I found them funny. He lives in my backyard and he has never rattled me once. As a matter of fact I have accomplished more sense he and others starting ripping me. If I was afraid of what people thought, I would not use my real name or tell people where I live.

Keep throwing your arrows at me, they only make me laugh.


Peace

If you consider those your best punches, I can see why you've never been accused of steroid abuse.

You need to workout a little more before I'll feel them.
You might want to try brushing up on your use of our native tongue. Try multi-syllable words, as well. Finally, your thoughts might be clearer if you didn't use your forehead to type. Opposable thumbs are a good thing, I suggest you remove your from your ***.

Is there a baseball question that we can answer for you?
You seem awfully obsessed lately.
