    Finally! This is the type of amusement we haven't had here in a while.

    See, it's entertaining having Will around. It takes all types to make a messageboard great.....and nothing beats a Will vs Engie/Todd/Iseen/etc argument. I've said it before and I'll say it again....he can be a dipshit, but he's #OURdipshit.

    I dont care either way- but the WJ/Cartmen/Smitty guy did the best C34 impersonation on the Wake Forest board back in 2011. It was so good I couldnt even be mad. I had to actually check and make sure I didnt black out one night and type it myself.

    You're anti-bunting stance reaches ridiculous levels- and I hate bunting myself- but the impersonation will live on

    I can't speak for everyone, but I don't find arguing with him at all enjoyable. I don't enjoy his baseball posts because I don't think he knows what he's talking about. He's gotten more mileage out of a bunting thing that several of us were already calling out on sps for a number of years before will James read moneyball and decided he was an expert on the topic.

    Granted I can go for the jugular in arguments -- but I don't have a problem circling back and calling myself an idiot when I'm wrong. When has he ever done that? Hell, as far as I know he's still sticking by the "2 strike sit curve and adjust to fastball" laugher he put out there confirming he didn't play the game even at lower levels.

    To me -- Anyone who can't admit when hindsight proves them wrong -- isn't worth debating in the first place. That's not a debate, that's a trolling.

    Yeah I agree with this. We all make pretty bold statements and assertions- it's the nature of message boards. Just own up to it if you get it wrong.

    That was by far the dumbest thing he's ever said, and that's saying something because he spews a lot of dumbness.

    So ... are you admitting to trolling for the past ten years? Because that's the most annoying thing about you. Being a know-it-all who refuses to admit when you're wrong about anything.

    I'd say that is what's most annoying about you -- but what's most annoying about you is thar your whole persona is following me around like a petulent child. Nevermind that there are numerous threads on this very board where I've called myself a dumb ass and told other members they were right about stuff. Anyone who doesn't have their panties in a permanent wad in regards to me can attest to such things. It's arguably the single most likely thing for me to actually start a thread about here. But, not surprisingly, you glanced right over all those in order to persist with your straw man ideal of my actual viewpoints and persona.

    Engie and I have had numerous disagreements (most of which I were right on haha) but I have to give it to him, he has always owned it and for that I respect him.

    Dont worry he will have another username in about 6 hours Im sure.
    Hey now, is this any way to talk about a legend?

    Homedawg, Engie, thanks for the support (somewhat). I guess this thread is as good as any to resurface. I'm back, bitches!

    First off, I assure you Will James has no fricking clue what he is talking about in baseball.

    Second off, my biggest beef is he can't man up and admit when he is wrong. We all miss some here and there. You man up, admit you blew it, and move on. Not Will James. He bitched about Cohen not playing Trey Porter WHEN PORTER WAS DAMN NEAR FRICKING BLIND WITH AN EYE HEALTH ISSUE. Will was told straight up what was going on with Porter's health, but wouldn't believe it. When word came out he was wrong, he continued to belittle and trash the name of the very m'fer who gave him the accurate intel. Screw him.

    I can't believe that he argued that he was actually right about that. Actually yes I can.
