Election Debate Over -- We're Talking Baseball Now

OK, I promised an edgy thread and I am going to deliver

I've been seeing alot of political threads on here in the last week. Now, I'm cool with threads that deal with issues on how to better the country and things like that.

But I think there have been too many threads by Kerry supporters who are analyzing the election, saying the voting system is not fair, the young people didn;t come out to vote, Bush got in, now here comes the draft, the country is doomed, Bush voters aren't as educated as Kerry voters.

Which leads me to a question. When do you think is enough is enough? the election is over, Bush is in, like it or not. To waste energy complaining is pointless IMO, you're not gonna change it. I'm all for debating issues where you can have an impact i.e women's rghts, abortion, racial discrimination

But to complain about something that is over and cannot be changed, don't you think it's too extreme and kinda like beating a dead horse.

I'm Don Murphy and I approved this thread

Trust me.

With the debut of their new network next year... I expect big things to happen this off-season from new GM Omar.

Expect a BIG name to come over to the Mets, either in Trade or FA.

true!

i may consider not watching them next season if they do this

i would never switch, i just wouldn't watch

they need a team...if they don't get one there really is no reason to watch...

same can be said for our friends on 161st street off the 4 train

lets face it Piazza HAS to go...he is a WASTE of money!
Sosa could bring some more hits to the team!

i agree about piazza

but they need to spend on building the crop of young talent, not some big name who's better days are behind him

I agree with you Don. The Mets need young talented ball players. Not someone who corked his bat because he was having problems getting hits.

I've said for 2 years the Mets should trade Piazza. He's done and they could have gotten a lot for him 2 years ago. I don't think they'll get that much for him now but they still need to move him.

Re: Election Debate Over -- We're Talking Baseball Now

well then...
the only time i yell is when the MET fans like to shove in our faces how stupid/lame something happened with the Yanks..
Which we both know is only done out of SHEER JEALOUSY!
