-> Deborah Gibson was seen kissing Large Marge and telling us:
You know, I had the impression from your stupid lines up here such as this 
pile of garbage and "Deborah Gibson gave up a long home run to Otis Nixon" 
that you weren't fond of me, but after seeing this post, I know that to be 
the case. Quite frankly, this post has me pissed off. I'd realaly hate to 
have to pull this forum off my new-message scan, but I just might have to....
-> No, it isn't. You want chemistry -- take some LSD and root for the
-> Cubs. If you want winners, look for the ones that put out when they
-> cross the white lines. That is NOT chemistry, that's PROFESSIONALISM.
With the kind of drug abuse and adiction that runs in my family, HOW F'ING 
DARE YOU TELL ME TO TAKE SOME LSD!! This is COMPLETELY OUT OF LINE, and I 
HOPE THE MODERATOR SEES THIS! There is a big difference between debating and 
insults and THIS is an insult!!
-> He deserves it more than the Dodgers...
Says who?
-> NEITHER DID MICHAEL JORDAN. Hatred is no reason to make up stories.
-> Jordan's ONLY demands last year after the championship were that they
-> bring back Jackson and Pippen.
YES, Michael Jordan did say JUST THAT! I heard it, my friend heard it... I 
also read it in the papers. How DARE you accuse me of making something up... 
You've gone WAY too far. I may hate him and what he stands for, but I ain't 
gonna make something up just to get my point across. I don't do that sh**... 
I told it how it is. I heard those very words come out of his mouth. Of 
course, why don't you just respond that I was on LSD at the time?!?! *snarl*
-> You obviously aren't very objective because if you're going to talk
-> ego -- Larry Bird would give him run for his money. Arrogant? How
-> about Kirk Gibson, ex-Dodger and definitely an arrogant player or
-> Babe Ruth...
Did I say anything about Kirk Gibson?? NO! My friend met Kirk Gibson at the 
Dodgers thing back in 1989 or 1990 where fans were allowed to go on the field 
and photgraph players and ask for their autographs. Kirk Gibson told my 
friend to go "f' a tree". While I admit his home run was one of the greatest 
moments in baseball history, I think Kirk Gibson is a jerk. And yes, I'm 
quite objective. I also admit Larry Bird doesn't know when o shut up either. 
But Larry Bird never asked for $40 million a year either, now did he??
-> You obviously don't have a clue about it because he IS the greatest
-> ever to play the game. He's not even my favorite (I'm a Lakers' fan)
-> and I have nothing but respect for the man. I can't stand the Bulls,
-> however, I do respect what they've done. To call Jordan arrogant
-> while proclaiming your love for a bunch of egomaniacs in LA who can't
-> put their egos aside to win is hilarious.
I do have a clue, and I can do without the insults to my intelligence, thank 
you. You've really succeeded in ruining a perfectly good discussion. I never 
proclaimed my "love" for a bunch of egomaniacs, just the team. Have i not 
said the Dodgers would be better off without an overhaiul?? Have I not 
criticized the egos of the likes of Karros and Piazza?? Geez...
-> I REALLY laugh at this because many of the older players who are
-> decrying the younger players have done nothing but bend over
-> backwards to mention Michael Jordan as the greatest example of how
-> these (and future) players should act.
If following Michael Jordan is the future of the NBA, it's in real trouble.
-> Puhleeze. MLB has been "watered-down" recently so don't cast stones.
-> If you're going to cast stones then let's not forget that the Dodgers
-> won most of their championships AFTER expansion....
*sigh* And have I not said that the MLB is watered down? I believe I have. So 
will you kindly quit putting words in my mouth, and quit insulting me? Thank 
you.
