Comments on: Game 67: Yankees at Marlins (Updates: A-Rod put on bench; audio from A-Rod) http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2009/06/19/game-67-yankees-at-marlins/ A New York Yankees blog by Chad Jennings and the staff of The Journal News Fri, 10 Feb 2012 14:54:15 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Dutch Hugo http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2009/06/19/game-67-yankees-at-marlins/comment-page-15/#comment-864287 Dutch Hugo Sat, 20 Jun 2009 17:57:32 +0000 http://yankees.lhblogs.com/?p=13177#comment-864287 Oh, and by the way, Sarah, you and your crowd of Posada haters get on this board and tell lies and just make stuff up about our all-star, world-series winning catcher to try and puff up your arguments and conjecture, and yet I am "one of the worst fans" you have ever read for defending him and calling out your lies as what they are? That's some pretty twisted logic there. I think you need to revisit what it means to be a fan of a team.

For you guys to just MAKE STUFF UP about him, like "all the pitchers hate to pitch to him" or "he has a weak arm".... just total lies and garbage. That's ok. But for me to come to his defense and call you guys out on it, that's not ok. And for the record, up until a couple of days ago, defending Posada on this board was most definitely NOT a majority opinion. There were times on here when I was all alone against five or six of your rabid Posada-haters spewing your venom and lies about Posada. Sarah, you get over yourself. This is a board for people to voice their OPINIONS. That is fine, and I have no problem with that. What I have a problem with is when people, like Evan, and you sometimes, who just make stuff up and then present it on here as fact. Evan says stuff that is simply not true, and just throws it out there like it's God's truth and he knows it. It's no such thing. You did the same thing, and I called you on it. You can't handle it when you are caught making stuff up and trying to pass it off as fact? Tough. That's life. Maybe you should learn not to do that. Stick to the facts, or call your opinions what they are. Opinions. Nothing more.

Who in the heck gives you the right to berate another fan in such a degrading way. It is your style, when you are in a majority in an argument, (whether right or WRONG) to vilify any one who disagrees with you and your Mano-Mano group. This board is one of the best because of the baseball intelligence of a lot of the posters. The humor, and the Haiku is great also. But you, man, bring the board down with your venom.

I couldn't follow the game thread in real-time, or listen to the broadcast on mlb.com. But to Pete's point that most of the fans in attendance in Miami were rooting for the Yankees, I attended a Mets-Marlins game three seasons ago where 3/4 of the people there were cheering for the Mets. That would really have to be demoralizing, I would think. From England…
